Go!
Paul solves WHITE PICKET FENCE.
Today's contestants:
Paul Singer: Third-year student at University of Texas School of Law in his final year, and he takes the bar in July to become an attorney; from Austin (but born and raised in New Orleans, LA)
Rosa Gastiaburu: Network analyst who works for a local school district, from Poway, CA
Laura Grier: Just graduated from Syracuse University, and is now a freelance photographer, also hoping to open her own studio; from Hollywood, CA (originally from Virginia)
Paul's the first to jump the fence and start spinning!
Laura solves NANTUCKET MASSACHUSETTS.
Laura doesn't get a break this time! She might have to face the one-third $10,000 space.
Paul solves SOMEBODY UP THERE LIKES ME to keep the gift certificate. "First you take her prize, then you take the puzzle."
Go!
Rosa solves HOT AIR BALLOON RIDE.
And now Rosa will probably hog the $5,000 space. She'll apologize to Paul later if that happens.
DING DING! DING DING!
Pat Sajak to the rescue! It's time for the Final Spin, and consonants will be worth $600 + $1,000 for $1,600 a piece.
Rosa: B ($1,600)
Laura: P (DUD!)
Paul: L ($1,600)
Rosa: M ($3,200)
Rosa beats the buzzer and solves MEAT LOAF OF BREAD. Still one letter short of the win...
BONUS ROUND:
RSTLNE gives her:
From Sony Pictures Studio, it's America's game! This is Spring Break Week!
They're still "dingers", aren't they? We'll find out when we play this Toss-Up.

She can't think of anything, and she does not solve BEGONIAS. She knew it would be some kind of flower.
She did not know that the $25,000 would be inside. Laura leaves with $5,450 in cash.
In the post-game chat, Vanna shows Pat and everyone another one of those lists of facts off the internet. Pat reminds us that it is from the internet.
- "Money isn't made out of paper. It's made out of cotton."
- "A two-by-four is not actually. It measures 1½-by-3½."
- "Every person has a unique tongue print."
"Book 'em, Danno!" Thanks, Pat.
