Jumping forward to the fourth week of the season. The previous week only had Monday's episode online. I'd also like to mention that the inner puzzle border is magenta for this episode!
EPISODE #4501: JUST FOR FUN
Airdate: 10/2/06
Go!
There's MILES OF SMILES across the studio as Matthew solves this one.
Kicking off week 4:
Matthew du Mee: Phoenix, AZ. Legal and policy aid for the Center for Arizona Policy. Married to his college sweetheart for just over a year. He's also indoor rock climbing (because if you do it outdoors, you'll get absolutely fried).
Gloria Chua: Reno, NV. Business services consultant who's one of 7 kids and has 11 nieces and nephews.
Claire Choisnet: Norman, OK. Sooner fan who's born and bred in that state who just finished studying at the Focus on the Family Institute.
Go!
Gloria has a brain fart.
Matthew has some PORK FRIED RICE to triple up.
FEATURED PRIZE: trip to the Fountainebleau Suites in Miami Beach via lastminutetravel.com (marked Florida)
MON/WED/FRI GIFT TAG: RICARDO
For the next four weeks, a second gift tag (marked AstraZeneca - that will be all in cash) will be on the wheel ($300 for first 3 weeks, $400 between $600/$300 for the last week) in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. When that gift tag is hit, the company will donate $1,000 to a breast cancer-related charity.
PERFECTION! Matthew solves WROUGHT-IRON & BILL GATES.
I see Pat pacing back and forth...or whatever the heck he's actually doing.
JACKPOT ROUND
Just for fun, this round is also our...
PRIZE PUZZLE!
This is the second of two weeks this season that the smaller Free SPIN is used.
Matthew's gonna be FADING INTO THE SUNSET on his trip to FIJI (Treasure Island Resort, Air Pacific) worth $9,250.
TRIP SPIN ID: LV02840
LOSE A TURN: Claire
BANKRUPT: Gloria
DQ: Gloria’s G repeat
LEFT BEHIND IN POT: $8,450
MYSTERY ROUND
PERFECTION #2! Claire solves ACTOR WON TWO OSCARS AND CRACKED THE DA VINCI CODE for a nice chunk of cash! Oh, and she also got the bonus with Tom Hanks.
Go!
Matthew solves END TABLE to sweep the Toss-Ups.
Gloria solves PAPER CUPS AND PLATES, meaning everyone's in five-figure territory! "Thank you, Matthew!"
LOSE A TURN: Matthew
DING DING! DING DING!
FINAL SPIN: $1,500
Gloria: R ($1,500)
Claire: S ($1,500)
Matthew: N
Gloria: 2 T's ($4,500)
Claire: H ($3,000)
Matthew: M ($1,500)
Matthew, the SMOOTH TALKER, brings this game to a close.
DUD: M (Matthew)
FINAL SCORES
Nice job by everyone!
WINNINGS SO FAR: $61,050
BANKRUPT TRASH: $3,850
BONUS ROUND:
Matthew survived this close game and now he'll try to win on of these prizes...
2006 Volkswagen Beetle Convertible
2006 Mini Cooper Convertible
Some cash ($25K-$50K)...
...or maybe a big celebration ($100,000)!
Wife Christy is here and so is the mom (Patty). His rather small spin (because his wife hates it when is goes around 10 times) lands on the comma.
RSTLNE gives two in the first word:
PCBA only gives the vowel...
...and he misses the bottom with WHILE, GIFT, SMILE and SMOKE. Matthew doesn't TAKE A WHIFF (Pat: "TAKE A HIKE, TAKE A BREAK, TAKE A THING")...
...and he misses out on $30,000. Matthew still gets to take home $23,750 in cash & trip.
Guess what Vanna did this week? No, she didn't go to a Hollywood party and met Sean Penn. She actually did a jigsaw puzzle (500 pieces, her kids helped). Before that moment, she never gone through the box and got every piece once. Also, Pat's take that at Regis and Kelly foreshadows a very infamous moment 3 years later...
