Today's Finalists:
Julie Briggs: Won $21,135 on Tuesday.

My fellow readers, YOU'RE IN FOR A REAL TREAT for the moments that come after this solve from Bob.
1ST PRIZE ADDED TO WHEEL: 7d cruise aboard Fiji Aggressor (marked Diving), $7,490
Not that much of a gambler this time, but Dennis does get IF I COULD TALK TO THE ANIMALS. And yes, it is Doctor Dolittle that said it.

JACKPOT ROUND
No jackpot for Dennis, but he does ID Irish playwright GEORGE BERNARD SHAW.

LETTER PICKED: H
RSTLNE gives Dennis almost half:
Yeah, I think he's got it with VGIM...
He's got a bottle of VINEGAR and this time, he's got the Florida & Waverunners! His mom (from Pheonix) and Bill join the celebration.
DENNIS' FINAL 2-DAT TOTAL: $58,081 ($40,050 plus the Florida/Waverunners package)
Hosts only have time to say goodbye.
OVERALL THOUGHTS: Nice Friday Final episode. Dennis is definitely one of the season's finest players. Bob didn't do too bad himself. I'll spot it at an 8/10 to wrap up the week.
A grand total of $167,538 was shown out the door this week.
