Go here for the first 2 episodes of this week (written by genius2751 himself).
EPISODE #4658: SUNNY SAN DIEGO
Airdate: 5/9/07
Go!
Melissa's FLYING A KITE.
Today's contestants:
Melissa Gastelum: Poway. Married 3 years to a Marine named Jason (he's in Iraq and coming back very soon). Started taking up boxing and shooting.
Steve Holcomb: Worked at the patient safety specialist in Naval Hospital Camp Pendleton. He's now retired after serving 24 years in the Navy (he was a combat veteran with the fleet Marine). Married 20 years to Carol with 4 kids.
Kari Tapia: San Diego. Teacher at La Jolla High School who's also a softball coach and the JV cheer advisor. Married 8 months to a navy man.
All of this week's contestants hail from San Diego County.
Go!
Kari solves CHARTER BOAT.
FEATURED PRIZE: trip to the Spice Island Beach Resort in Grenada with CheapTickets airfare (marked CARIBBEAN) worth $8,405
$10,000 ROUND
Kari tried to buy an A after picking up the gift tag - this ain't Season 30, lady!
It would be pretty weird if one had a STATIC ELECTRICITY BILL, but Melissa has the early lead.
LOSE A TURN: Kari
JACKPOT ROUND
Steve solves FREE OUTDOOR CONCERT.
DUD: S (Melissa)
LEFT BEHIND IN POT: $8,700
That looks rather familiar...
MYSTERY ROUND
Here comes the extra chimes. It's also a...
PRIZE PUZZLE!

Melissa does get OF LIFE, but does not solve WAY OF LIFE...
...and out goes another $50,000. She'll have to leave with $15,000 in cash & trip.
Melissa definitely looked like a real sport about the end result.
Fun Fact: The contestants this episode used to either be in the military or had a spouse that actually is in the military.
Speaking about that, next week is Armed Forces Week.
Full credit roll at the end.
