I think that's the farthest any add-on has ever slid before.
It was great to finally get reaction to a regular $5000 hit, especially with this amazing streak of regular-play R4's. The $2500 hit in R1 seemed to have been completely passed over by everyone, though. Even Pat didn't make any kind of comment or special tone about it. Weird.
Hard Phrases, and only $30K envelopes.
Haven't seen an episode where everyone landed on TDV in one round and solved that puzzle. Too bad she didn't win. That was a tight match btw. her/Sean.
