Speaking of lucky, do you feel that way in this round? It's the Mystery Round, and we've brought out two special $500 spaces.
If you find a letter on one of these, you may risk it. Flip it over, and it could be a BANKRUPT, or it could be a Ford Focus ZX 3-door worth $13,780. Does that sound fun?

Melissa solves AN OUNCE OF PREVENTION. If she can say the next line, she'll get a $3,000 bonus!
She guesses a pound of luck. Everyone laughs, and Pat says "a pound of Alex"...or is it Alec? The line: is worth a pound of cure.

Larry barely got a chance to play, and the last puzzle was his only real chance. He leaves with the new $500 consolation prize.
BONUS ROUND:
Melissa would probably like to win something more in Bonus Land! Could it be a car, or is it cash up to $50,000...all the way to $100,000?
She spins the Bonus Wheel and settles with the U in BONUS. This puzzle is ready for the challenge...

But the second word stumps her. She guesses A BIG RIDE and A DOG RIDE, and she does not solve A JOY RIDE. If it's the Mustang, she's in trouble...

In the post-game, we see Vanna inside some hot cars during the credits.
