Mystery Round: Phrase
Pratiksha hits the ½ Car next to the pink $900, but there's no R. Michael picks up the NBA prize with N, then calls on the Mystery Wedge next to Lose a Turn. He decides not to flip it, which is a good idea, as there's a Bankrupt on the back. Instead, he buys I and A… but still ends up Bankrupting anyway next to $3500. Elle's looking for the other half of her Kia… she hits the ½ Car next to the pink $900, but there's no T.
Back to Pratiksha, who picks up the Under Armour gift tag (over the purple $500) with P. She then calls H on $600, C on the½ Car next to the orange $300, and then buys an O. However, her next call of D on $350 is a dud. Michael hits the same wedge for L…

…and for $1,050, he solves LIKE A BULL IN A CHINA SHOP.

Prize Puzzle: Food & Drink
Michael starts off with Bankrupt next to $3500. Elle picks up the ½ Car next to the pink $900 with S, then buys E. Her next spin takes her to… yet another ½ Car (next to the orange $300) with N. After buying A and I, she just barely lands on the Million Dollar Wedge and picks it up with C. Her next spin is for O on Free Play, followed by a purchase of U to clear the vowels. After that, she barely hangs onto $3500 and calls H. Finally, she picks up the T's on $600.

(Is it possible that when it seems like it would be a dumb idea to risk, that they don't bother to prompt for shouting?) Not that he should have risked it, anyway, but it sadly didn't matter.
