Riley & Jashar make the complete solve, ordering ONE DOZEN WHITE ROSES and banking $1,000.
CONTESTANT INTERVIEWS:
Riley & Jashar Day are newlyweds, only married for about six months as of taping time. They live in Hilo, Hawaii, working at the letter facility there - which, in fact, is how they first met. In their spare time, they enjoy traveling and have just taken up stand-up paddleboarding.
Olivia & Matt (no last name given) come from the small town of Ka'a'awa on Oahu and have been married for 13 years. Matt is a longshoreman for the Port of Oahu, while Olivia is a mobile notary for a title-and-escrow company. They have three children, Isaiah, Kiana, and Orion.
Amy & Will (also no last name given) are the longest-married couple of the night, at 16 years. They met while serving in the Air Force but have since transitioned to government civilian life. When not working, they enjoy golf and traveling - so much so that they've golfed every course on Oahu and been to over 50 countries!

ROUND 1: WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

Riley & Jashar start their night by hitting $800 and getting triple T's. There are also three E's and four A's, which the Days buy and fill in a good chunk of the puzzle. Next up is $500 next to the pink $900 for the H, after which they purchase the I. Their next spin seems safe for a moment, but then at the last second flips into the BANKRUPT on the right side of the Million-Dollar Wedge.
Olivia & Matt knock out the two N's on $700, then the G on $600. Finally, they pick up the Wild Card and $500 for the S...

...and with their $2,500 cash, they might just be ENJOYING THE FEAST AT A LUAU in the future!
Bankrupt: Days ($2,150)
Riley & Jashar: $3,000
Olivia & Matt: $2,500 + Wild Card
Amy & Will: $0
ROUND 2 (MYSTERY ROUND): BEFORE & AFTER

Olivia & Matt just miss the Belize trip with their opening spin, landing instead on $650 and setting up two S's. Three A's are bought, then it's over to $800 and the R goes up. They try to buy the E next, but it's a dud this time, the first of the night.
Amy & Will, on the other hand, do manage to pick up the Belize trip with the N. Then they hit $3,500 and put up a pair of L's! Their luck doesn't hold out, though... after finishing the vowels by getting the singleton I and trio of O's, the BANKRUPT next to $3,500 wipes them out.
Riley & Jashar land on the Mystery wedge near Free Play, and successfully call a D - with nothing to risk, they flip the wedge... and it's the BANKRUPT.
Olivia & Matt hit the Free Play - with no vowels left, they take the K for $500. Then they land on Free Play again, this time for the W. Their next spin is a little too strong, sadly, as it flies past Free Play and into BANKRUPT... the pink Bankrupt magnet strikes again.
Amy & Will take the T on $650 and the Y on $550...

Riley & Jashar just miss the Express over to the $900 for three T's. After buying pairs of E's and A's, they spin again, and this time the train horn does sound for the Express! They punch their ticket for the ride with the single S, and pull out of the station... all aboard!
