Mike tries JOHN & JOAN CUSICK, which is incorrect. Thelma, after trying to spin, is forced to try to solve, and she messes up with JOHN & JOAN COSACK. Christy then tries JOHN & JOAN CUSACK correctly for $1,050.
Pat notes that they would have accepted both "coo-sack" and "cue-sack". Christy solved correctly with "coo-sack".

Thelma tries to BREAK IT OFF, but can't CHECK IT OFF her list. She's lost $25,000, but she still walks away with $13,800 cash!
Pat Chat: Vanna messed up in the Puzzler round. She was talking to the cameraman about the shot going into the first commercial, and completely forgot she had another puzzle to reveal. Pat calls her the Jerry Lewis of game shows, before falling to Vanna's advice to just say goodbye.
