Tennille solves A CHESS TOURNAMENT.
Today's contestants:
Tennille Forrest: Premed student at the University of Missouri Columbia, also musically talented; from St. Louis

Maya Murphy: Senior student at UCSC majoring in environmental studies and anthropology hoping to graduate in Spring, and also makes clothing; from Santa Cruz, CA
And since Tennille probably doesn't want to stop there, she'll get the first spin.
Greg solves JANE & PETER FONDA for the house minimum.
Perfection! Greg solves LITTLE HOUSE ON THE PRAIRIE DOG.
Greg solves MALAYSIA IN SOUTHEAST ASIA.

Maybe he could hit the $5,000 space right off the bat?
Tennille solves FLOWER CHILD to spring into the lead!
DING DING! DING DING!

She's silent and does not solve A NICE GUY, and Pat hates to have to do this...
...but inside was a Toyota MR2 Spyder. Tennille still leaves with $16,450 in cash.
In the post-game chat, Pat points out that we can plainly see that it's Spring Break week. Next year, thanks to the budget, the show will be getting color photography. Vanna loved Spring Break, and living in North Myrtle Beach, she didn't have to go anywhere! She could just stay there! Pat, on the other hand, just remained in his little house with his brother.
