Donna: MATH WHIZ

Pat: WHAT?!

Too bad that bullseye was only worth $25,000, so her final cash/Florida total is $36,900.

Once again, Pat still doesn't know how people process this end game...

There's a full credit roll in the end.

This is why we watch. Not only for the gut punch, but the random acts of insanity that make you cheer for total strangers, the brothers doing "YMCA," or the wife jumping into her husbands arms which led to the greatest ad lib between Pat & Vanna, etc, etc, etc).

There's a reason this show has been on so long.

I'll never quit watching. Hopefully, you won't either.

This is the 3rd recap I made in 4 episodes with the same end chat. Unlike the other 2 instances, that one was said as soon the timer started beeping. Easily a top 10 (or maybe top 5) in BR solves.

That was a difficult bonus puzzle, but I've heard people say MATH WHIZ before. I've never heard WHIZ KIDS as a plural.
