This week is sponsored by Ragu and Wish-Bone. To be eligible to have a chance at winning $100K, you had to enter 3 of the 5 Bonus Puzzles that week. Other prizes given away were trips (for 4 people) to Vegas to see a taping of this show and also a share of $10K worth of groceries.
S19, EPISODE #3526: ITALIAN FESTIVAL SWEEPSTAKES
Airdate: 9/24/01
Go!
Chad solves AN ELECTRIC TEAPOT.
Opening up this week:
Chad Shahan: Oklahoma City. He loves adventure and traveling and hopes to sail around the world.
Rebecca Condeluci: Surfside Beach, SC (close to Vanna's home of Myrtle Beach). Interior designer who owns a 160lb Great Dane. She also has a stepdaughter named Jamie.
Rob Tokar: Manhattan Beach, CA. Freelance artist who illustrated a children's book promoting former racing greyhounds.
Go!
IT'S HARD TO RESIST not solving this puzzle and Chad's 2-for-2 so far.
GIFT TAG: SKAGEN (watches)
PERFECTION! Chad solves TWINKLE TWINKLE LITTLE STAR...but he's one word off with "...how I wonder where you are"; it's "...how I wonder what you are".
ITALIATOUR! TRIP ON WHEEL: Rome ($4,300)
JACKPOT ROUND
SPONSOR: Wish-Bone
Rob solves MATTHEW BRODERICK & SARAH JESSICA PARKER.
DUDS: N (Chad), L (Rebecca)
BANKRUPTS: 2 (non-Chads)
LEFT BEHIND IN POT: $17,900
2ND WEEKLONG PRIZE ON WHEEL: $5,000 worth of RAGU groceries
PERFECTION #2! Rob solves GENUINE LEATHER WALLET to keep the watches.
Actually, Chad's incorrect guess for the bonus answer in the Next Line Please puzzle is mentioned in a 50's song called "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" by The Elegants, so he's credited with a $3,000 bonus.
And now we resume our game...
Go!
Rob's in the lead for sure with THE QUEEN BEE.
DING DING! DING DING!
FINAL SPIN: $1,300

FINAL SCORES
WINNINGS SO FAR: $32,200
BANKRUPT TRASH: $950
BONUS ROUND
VEHICLES: Mazda MX-5 Miata LS ($25K+), Jeep Wrangler Sport 4WD, Ford Mustang GT Convertible ($29K+)
LETTER PICKED: H
RSTLNE gives Chad a couple:
Wipe is the leaning tower of Pisa.
Chad appropriately picks CHAD...
...but he's wrong thinking it's -THRASH. It was MOUTHWASH and there goes the Ford Mustang Convertible.
CHAD'S FINAL TOTAL: $18,100 (all cash)
Regarding the mishap in the Next Line Please puzzle, I don't think that scenario has been done before. Then again, that ruling didn't affect Chad from being the big winner...

OVERALL THOUGHTS: This was a very interesting battle between the two men. With two perfect rounds, a score adjustment late in the game, plus Chad picking CHAD, this one gets a 7/10.
