…is an interesting combo that doesn't do much… but the H is all Laura needs to instantly guess this puzzle, so she and Trent could place $40,000 into HIS MAN CAVE! Pat assures Laura she isn't embarrassing her folks back home. Her final score is $58,550.
CHAT: One night, when Maggie visited her folks, Pat was watching TV in his room (or "cave") when he heard his wife and daughter screaming. He rushed in to find the two covering themselves with blankets after seeing a bat! A frightened Pat didn't know what to do for two hours, but by that time, the bat left. As we close, Pat waves his arms like the flying mammal.
