Well, that takes Aaron higher...but there's also another way. We have a Sanyo blimp ride, plus digital camera, and accommodation at a "fantasy city" in the U.S. (labeled BLIMP) worth $3,000.
Let's just get to it! We have also brought the $3,500 and Jackpot spaces out early! Aaron's competition already has catching up to do.

I guess Aaron could still pay for his own blimp ride if he wanted, or if it comes to that, a 2000 Kawasaki Prairie 300 ATV (labeled ATV) worth $4,599.
It would certainly help to hit the one-third $10,000 space!

Kinda funny when one round is all you need. More hilarious is when Round 1 is all you need! As a result, Aaron makes it to Bonus Land!
He will pick the second E, and this puzzle was picked for him:

A few guesses, but he does not solve FARGO. "Duh!" (Pat says it's the first time someone says "Duh!" on the show.)
Aaron is unable to take the $25,000, so he will be leaving with $11,350 in cash.
During the post-game, Pat mentions that despite giving away only one bonus prize, this week was around $50 shy of $200K in winnings!
