A suggestion to our big winner is that Pat might be a bit frail after that last game. Carol is at $54,797 will play for one last prize in Bonus Land.

In the post-game, Vanna mentions that she's going to get a haircut or a trim, or something like that. She has considered getting it short, but we'll see what happens.
