This is gonna be a WILD end to this week...
The hot tub clip opens up the show.
S19, EPISODE #3535: SOUTH OF THE BORDER
Airdate: 10/5/01
Go!
Debbie IDs the TROPIC OF CAPRICORN.
Final contestants this week:
Debbie Schweitzer: Franklin, WI. Married 28 years to Bob with 3 daughters (in audience), a son and a son-in-law. She's also an upcoming grandmother.
Kristin Pitcher: Morgan Hill, CA. Engaged (for a year) count coordinator for a top PR firm in the Bay Area. When not working, she's dancing up a storm, working out and sitting in traffic.
Derrick Barker: Oklahoma City. Travel agent (he just came back from Vegas). One of his travels took him to the Persian Gulf (when he was in the Navy in 1990).
Go!
Debbie's 2-for-2 with A WALL HANGING.
GIFT TAG: MEADE Telescopes
Derrick solving for the house minimum? Well, HE'S OKAY IN MY BOOK.
1ST PRIZE ADDED TO WHEEL: Magellan 750NAV navigation system (marked TRAVEL), $2,500
JACKPOT ROUND
Derrick makes the mistake of solving too early as he only says the first three words.
Does Debbie know what THE ROMAN NUMERAL XV STANDS FOR ##?
It is 15!
LEFT BEHIND IN POT: $11,000
MEXICO TRIP ON WHEEL: 5-star Presidente Intercontinental Hotel Cancun + AeroMexico airfare ($5,800)
Derrick...mispronounces the third word (he said it as TEE like the drink).
Debbie also mispronounces the third word (TEE-uh) and says the second with a soft C sound. Kristin then correctly solves DAVID DUCHOVNY & TEA LEONI (it's pronounced TAY-uh) for the house minimum.
Go!
Kristin says WASH AND DRY...nope.
Derrick gets the right one of WASH AND WAX.
DING DING! DING DING!
FINAL SPIN: $6,000
And to add to the pain, Kristin gives the same incorrect guess Derrick gave earlier that round! Wow. She also tried to change it to BILL after the buzzer and Derrick FINALLY ends it by solving BULL PEN AND PENCIL SET. I think I need a drink after all this.
FINAL SCORES
WINNINGS SO FAR: $49,200
BONUS ROUND
LETTER CHOSEN: L (because Derrick got lucky)
RSTLNE gives the last letter:
BWPA...comes up empty and DOGS, FOGS and GAGS will definitely not work. I'm one of the GUYS who help create the first-run recaps on this site, and he loses the Volvo Convertible.
DERRICK'S FINAL TOTAL: $39,500 (all cash)
