From Sony Pictures Studio, it's America's game! This is Blue Cash Week!
A bit slow for this Toss-Up? Don't feel blue! There's plenty of cash ahead!
Go!
Elizabeth solves MEASURING SPOONS. (The last O takes a while to reveal after it is solved.)
Today's contestants:
Elizabeth Pearson: Mother who also owns a chain of upscale pizza/gourmet Italian restaurants, from New Orleans, LA
Steve Shin: Music teacher at John C. Fremont High School, also a student at Chapman University getting his masters; from Anaheim, CA
Lynda Hamilton: Mother of two who loves to shop, from Puyallup, WA
We need to get this Toss-Up just right...
Go!
Steve solves A BLAST FROM THE PAST.
This game's gonna be a blast, especially for Steve if he hits the one-third $10,000 space!
Lynda solves WILL FERRELL IN ELF. Pat makes fun of her for opting to "guess the puzzle" instead of solve it.
Lynda solves IN BANKING IT'S WHAT ATM STANDS FOR. Can she bank a $3,000 bonus by answering the clue?
Hoping to get the first word right, she does with automated teller machine. I guess it was a 50/50 chance.
Speaking of 50/50 chance, we begin our Mystery Round! We have two $500 spaces, and one of them has a BANKRUPT, and the other has a Sony Style gift certificate worth $10,000.
Elizabeth solves I NEVER THOUGHT I'D SEE THE DAY to keep the Gift Tag.
Go!
Steve solves KOMODO DRAGON.
A little further, and now he can start this round.
DING DING! DING DING!
But he won't have control for long, as Pat must give the Wheel a Final Spin. Consonants are worth $300 + $1,000 for $1,300 a piece. Time to begin!
Steve: N (DUD!)
Lynda: T (x2) ($2,600)
Elizabeth: L (x2) ($2,600)
Steve: R ($1,300) (He says "Pass", and Pat makes fun of him for that.)
Lynda: G ($3,900)
Elizabeth: H ($3,900)
Steve: T (Repeat) (He tries to say S, but it's too late.)
Lynda: P ($5,200)
Elizabeth: S (x2) ($6,500)
Elizabeth solves BLACK LIGHT POSTERS.
BONUS ROUND:
RSTLNE gives her:

In the post-game, Pat mentions that everyone says "ATM machine", so you're saying "automated teller machine machine", or maybe "personal identification number number". He also uses "liquid crystal display display" as an example.
