PHRASE

Sabrina solves HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS.

Alexis	Sean	Sabrina
		$1,000

Here for glitter and the confetti?
Sabrina Kaiser: In graduate school for marital and family therapy at the University of San Diego; married for over a year to her husband Brian, and she has "zorbed" in New Zealand. (Pat wonders why, and she's a thrill seeker.)
Alexis Joseph (female): From Oakland, CA; engaged to her fiancé Michael who has trained her for this appearance...in a "classic Rocky scene, but on the couch, and with cocktails and stuff" (Pat's kind of "zorbing"). She has written two novels, but nobody has ever read them, and this is intentional.
Sean Jones: From Long Beach, CA (originally from Virginia); has dressed as Madonna as part of a Halloween contest, and in his mind, he won. He's an industrial engineer by day, and he works for the USPS.

After Alexis' interview, Pat asks for the real contestants.

She says WATCHING, but she does not solve QUACKING LIKE A DUCK. "Just about to say it."

Just about to take the Escape. Sabrina still leaves with $26,750 in cash and trip.

"Quack! Quack!" ...Vanna just had to do it. Pat knew it. He also talks about "turducken", which some people have for Thanksgiving. He also wonders if anyone has ever had "ferraccroo", a mix of ferret, raccoon, and kangaroo. Probably not.

Recap posted.

All three contestants had fun interviews again. You gotta wonder how they find these contestants.

I first thought THE SOOTHING SOUND OF A CATAMARAN with just the T's for the trip puzzle, but I got it when the R appeared.

Even with the K's and Q, the CDMA combo works okay for this one, so she might have gotten it with those choices. I thought too much like Kaizo again with QUIZZING LIKE A BUFF.

Vanna getting glitter on Pat as they walked out was funny. I wonder how often something like that has happened when they came onstage together.

No way very many were solving that bonus puzzle with as little as their was on the board. At minimum would've needed the A and C to get it.

Funny contestants, not very funny gameplay (for the first half at least…it got better later on).

BR: Nope, no way I was getting that (I was stuck on BABY for the last word). CDMA would’ve made things better, but it still doesn’t guarantee a solve.

5/10

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.

Like Monday’s episode, Sabrina’s PP gave this game a boost. At least she and the other contestants were fun to watch.

I got R3 with just the T’s, and the Triple Toss-Ups had a clever theme. I would’ve said SWOOPING LIKE A HAWK in the BR if not for the lack of an S at the beginning, and then I switched my guess to BABY. Tough luck for Sabrina in that round.

My rating: 6
