The clip crossword puzzle championship round Part 2 from Wordplay (2006)

I'd have the trophy, I'd I'd have $4,000 which would be very nice
and, you know, in small circles, fame, really.
Any year that I don't win the tournament, I admit that I'm not happy about it.
I try to keep a a smiling face on, but, you know...
there's a part of me that expects to win, even though I know that's not logical.
Nobody can win every year. There's too many good people...
and there's too many variables in the puzzles.
But there's part of me that thinks, you know, "You're good enough to win. You should win. "
And that part of me is upset when I don't.
You know, the big hurdle for me to get over, though, is that final puzzle.
'Cause every year it's like, "Okay, you know, this is, like, the fourth time I'm up here.
"Surely I've gotten now to where I can, you know, get over this hump...
and get out there and just, you know, go kick butt on this puzzle. "
Then every time it starts off, I'm lookin' at those clues, and it's like
I look at the first 20 clues, and I don't have any idea.
And Trip's over there, you know, writin' away, and it's like, "Oh, God, here we go again. "
Trip and Al both got "sit" first though.
Well, Trip is waiting to see if it's "house-sat. "
I mean, he's He knows enough to not fall into that trap.
Al's got "Steve Jobs"...
and "Ute. "
Trip is doing well in that upper left-hand corner as well.
The clue on this one for one across is just brutal
"Stark and richly detailed, as writing. "
That screams "Zolaesque" to me.
You think they put six down in there just for us this year, Merl?
"So just shut up"?
Yeah.
No, I mean, just sojust shut up.
Yeah. I see.
Well, I thought the other one, the last puzzle
"Unbeknownst to me. " Huge breakthrough there...
by Al Sanders on the right.
No mistakes I see yet.
Meanwhile, Tyler working in the lower right
