EPISODE #4819: QVC SHOPPING SPREE
Airdate: 3/20/08
Go!
Later used as a bonus puzzle on 2/13/17 (went unsolved for the season minimum), Kira solves YOU DO THE MATH.
Thusday's trio:
Kira McConico: Kansas City, KS. Graphic designer who's married to Jason with 3 kids.
Leigh Cummings: Phoeniz, AZ. Director of operations in graphic design who's one of the triplets (another one is in the audience).
Troy Newman: Milwaukie, OR (Portland area). Disabled vet in the Army from 1991-1996 during Desert Storm who now plays poker and has a son named Austin. He also carried the Olympic Torch in 2002.
Go!
Kira triples up with some BLACK LICORICE.
GIFT TAG: Lobster Gram
QVC host Jane Brown presents the spree.
By the sound of Leigh's groan, I figured she finally had the puzzle.
Leigh proves to be a SMART COOKIE CUTTER.
DUDS: L & N (Kira)
LOSE A TURN: Leigh
DQ: Troy's L repeat
JACKPOT ROUND
There's no wipe after the sponsor plug.
JACKPOT! Troy slowly recites "BROWN PAPER PACKAGES TIED UP WITH STRINGS" to win the tickets and an $8,800 pot! Unfortunately, he's never heard of this song - it's "...these are a few of my favorite things" (from "The Sound of Music").
LOSE A TURN: Leigh
BANKRUPT: Leigh
MYSTERY/BIG MONEY ROUND
As if the stakes aren't high enough, it's also a...
PRIZE PUZZLE!
Troy's going to THE SOUTH PACIFIC - it's a trip to FIJI (Treasure Island Resort, Air Pacific) worth $9,150.
TRIP SPIN ID: GM4764718
DUDS: R (Troy), L & N (Kira), M (Leigh)
BANKRUPTS: 2 (non-Kiras)

BANKRUPT TRASH: $3,650
BONUS ROUND:
His best friend (and ex-wife) Joy is here and so are Louise (his adopted mom) and sister Cory. He also says hi to his biological mom that couldn't come here.
Anyway, Troy spins to the one's digit and faces this puzzle:
RSTLNE gives him 40%:
He will try FCMI...
...but we're fresh out.
Troy's stuck on CARE, not aware that the C's a dud. It was PURE OXYGEN and he doesn't win the Q+ and the $25,000. Troy's still leaving with $28,850 in cash & prizes.
Pat sometimes mentions that he'll use different names when buying stuff through QVC.
