It's Hawaii Week in Culver City...Pat proposes the show should do Culver City week in Hawaii. But he can't since he's a busy busy guy...

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.

I'm too tired to give the rest of the results for this week so I'll keep it brief - Wendi saved everyone's butts here.

Also, Tim would've won if he remembered to buy vowels...

Other BR results this week:

Wednesday: David Warshawski failed to solve IN A HUFF for the Saturn Sky (Phrase; MHAD).
Thursday: Isabel Elizondo failed to solve VETO POWER for $25K (Phrase; HMGA struck out).
Friday: Donna Gusterson failed to solve BROWN GRAVY for the Miata (Food & Drink; FDCA).

Also, I forgot to mention, but Nana used the Wild Card WITHOUT the prompt from Pat. That just makes the backfire much more painful...
