S7, EPISODE #1254: FAMILY WEEK
Airdate: 12/28/89
We've given away $154,359 so far this week and I'm sure these families would love to bust the budget even more:
Tressia Sanders & Gwenda Chambers: A mother/daughter team from San Diego.
Free Spin Location: $700
Michael spots a SEA OF UMBRELLAS, something I never see in my neck of the woods.
DUDS: T (Sanderses), N (Kaisers)
ROUND 2 PRIZE: Colortyme home entertainment center (25" color TV, VCR, unified remote control, stereo) + 50 VHSes from Video Treasures (marked VIDEO), $2,199
Karen IDs the fake actress as MARY MARTIN SHEEN.
DUD: L (Sanderses)
LOSE A TURNS: 2 (others)
This would've been appropriate for Michael who gave his proposal at the beginning of this episode, but it's Gwenda that solves A TOAST TO THE BRIDE AND GROOM. Oh, and Tressia mentioned that she was married to Leroy.
DUD: L (Jaffees)
ROUND 4 PRIZE: a 6n trip for 4 to the Kona Hilton Beach & Tennis Resort on Hawaii's Big Island via Delta Airlines + 2 days on a boat fro Kona Sunrise Charter (marked TRIP), $11,410
DING DING! DING DING!
FINAL SPIN: $350
Michael eats up a CHOCOLATE SOUFFLE.
DUD BEFORE BELL: T (Sanderses)
FINAL SCORES
WINNINGS SO FAR: $13,550
NO BANKRUPTS AGAIN!
BONUS ROUND
If Larry & Karen ace this next segment, they'll be in the Friday Finals for sure.
LETTER PICKED (Larry): H
RSTLNE gives 5 to start:
CDMA sounds reasonable...
CATCH YOUR BREATH you two...but they blow it thinking the last word's TREATS. Therefore, no Room Addition and no spot for the Friday Finals.
KAISERS' FINAL TOTAL: $8,400 (all cash)
GSN skipped the end chat...again.
OVERALL THOUHGTS: Another BANKRUPT-free episode, but this one could've been way better considering what could've been. 5/10
Friday Final
