Gonna try to recap all of the Teen Best Friends episodes from the 23rd season in one weekend. Also, this was exactly a week after the big $100,000 win back in The Big Easy. Special thanks to Lucas Cox for the videos and Game Show Newsnet for the backup info.
TEEN BEST FRIENDS
AIR DATE: 11/21/05
Intro All This Week: Charlie says "It's Teen Best Friends Week on..." and the theme title popus up at the intro. Also, the 2000 intro plays during the host introduction.
$1,000 Tossup: Phrase
P L _ _ _ E / R A _ _ E
_ O _ _ / H _ _ _
PLEASE RAISE YOUR HAND if you know the answer. Brandon & A-lan solved to be interviewed first among these groups of Californian teens...
Brandon Wagner & A-lan Holt: Juniors as Bishop Montgomery HS in L.A. Known each other for 3 yrs. and met on the first school dance during the freshman year.
Well, that was one "cheesy" intro from The A's (I'll just call the blue team that) if you know what I mean. And I also enjoy playing on the Xbox, even if Forza is the only game that I play. And Pat's getting hungry right now.
$2,000 Tossup: Movie Title
Sorry, Pat. It won't be On The Menu!
_ _ _ _ I E
F U _ L _ / _ O A _ _ D
Brandon's tripled up for the team with "HERBIE FULLY LOADED".
Featured Prize: Sea World & Busch Gardens Adventure Camps worth $8,300 (marked ADVENTURE CAMPS/AC)
Mon./Wed./Fri. Gift Tags: cingular (raising the bar - Sony Ericsson cell phones + WoF mobile game) and Op (Ocean Pacific)
$10,000 Round: Occupation

B&A: $400 near $550 (R), $300 (3 S's), A, $450 (T - $1,050 at risk)
The A's: $500 (N - said in unison), 3 E's, BANKRUPT! (normal - $250 lost)
D&A: LOSE A TURN!
B&A: other $400 (2 L's), 3 I's, 3 O's (No More Vowels!), $900 (D), Op (M), $400 near $550 (2 C's), Solve Attempt ($3,050 + Op)...

Brandon & A-lan solve COLLEGE ADMISSIONS OFFICER to claim the gift cards.
Dud: T (B&A)
Lose a Turn: D&A
Bankrupt: The A's
Pre-Round 2 Scores:
D&A: Spun a Lose a Turn
B&A: $7,050 cash & GCs
The A's: Spinning Next
Pat almost slipped up thinking it was "College Best Friends" - now that's a theme that I'd like to see (but it won't happen anytime soon due to the pandemic). And going into the first break, pictures of the teams are shown (this will happen all week - The A's pic was pretty dope).

Brand Source Jackpot Round: Place (Prize Puzzle)
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ ($5,000)
_ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _
The A's: $550 (N - seems like they do say the letters in unison)
D&A: BANKRUPT! ($600)
B&A: $900 (H), $800 (T - $900 at risk)
The A's: $400 near $600 (3 L's - not said in unison this time), E ($950 at risk)
I think Pat said something about cheese.
D&A: $450 (2 S's), other $400 (3 P's), 3 O's, ADENTURE CAMPS (2 R's - Ariel said C, which would also work), 2 U's, Solve Attempt ($1,600 + AC)...
P O P U L _ R / L O _ _ L ($8,500)
S U R _ / S H O P
If that puzzle looked familiar to you, it was also the Prize Puzzle on jmdarrall 's episode on the show's 30th season (but it was Katie Hess that solved for a trip to Hawaii's Big Island). Meanwhile, Denise & Ariel won the Adventure Camps and would also visit a POPULAR LOCAL SURF SHOP in...where else...HAWAII (Outrigger Kiahuna Plantation Resort Condominium in Kauai) worth $7,720 - they're on the board with a $17,620 round!
Trip Spin ID: TB02645
Duds: N (The A's), T (B&A), E (The A's)
Bankrupt: The A's
Pre-Round 3 Scores:
D&A: $17,620 cash & trips
B&A: $7,050 cash & GCs
The A's: Called Some Duds
Circuit City promo about an upcoming sweepstakes (would happen on the week of 12/12) back then (and if it was today, it would be shoehorned between the first 2 tossups ).

Brandon too messes up on the first word, but he rebounds with PICKUP BASKETBALL for the house minimum.

Not much help, but Ariel still IDs Woody's best pal from the "Toy Story" series as BUZZ LIGHTYEAR for...
...$100,000 - IT'S THE SECOND STRAIGHT WIN ON A MONDAY!!!!!
After their mothers came on stage (yes, Pat didn't have the introductions at the beginning), Denise & Ariel left with $120,170 cash & trips (though the final score wasn't shown on screen)!!!
Closing Chat: Pat binds the duo with some streamers. And the girls decide to spend the dough on Disneyland.
Slo-mo replay of the $100,000 win in the end credits.
