From the Washington State Convention and Trade Center, it's America's game! We end another College Week...
We've got a few more puzzles before graduation, and here's our first Toss-Up of the last day.
Go!
Karim guesses VANCOUVER CANADA.
Heather solves VANCOUVER ISLAND.
Final trio of the week:
Heather Valderi: Senior at Western Washington University pursuing a degree in marketing, and wants to work for an advertising firm; from Lake Tapps
James Stoffel: Sophomore at Pierce College studying "astronautical" engineering, and wants to travel to space one day; from Puyallup
Go!
Karim solves DECISIONS DECISIONS.
Decisions like whether or not the one-third $10,000 space is even important for your score.
Heather solves CHESS & CHECKER PIECES.
Time to slap on a mysterious pair of spaces in...what else? The Mystery Round! See if you'll find a BANKRUPT or if you'll find a Kia Spectra GS worth $12,865!
Karim solves SENIORS JUNIORS SOPHOMORES & FRESHMEN.
Go!
Karim solves A PHOTO FINISH.
He's on the way there, but he won't need one if he can cash in with the $5,000 space!
DING DING! DING DING!
We need to finish this, so Pat gives the Wheel a Final Spin. Consonants are worth $800 + $1,000 for $1,800 a piece.
Karim: D (x2) ($4,250)
Karim doesn't even give Vanna a chance as he quickly solves PRE-PAID PHONE CARD.
BONUS ROUND:
RSTLNE gives him:
CPHA only adds another vowel.

James might wonder how we transmit these Toss-Ups to the puzzle board, but what's important right now is just solving it.

James can't simply pay for more time, especially not with that score. He's leaving with the $500 consolation prize.
BONUS ROUND:
We'll take Karim to Bonus Land for free. He'll probably take one of these from us:
Mini Cooper (over $19,000)
Nissan Xterra 4x4 (over $27,000)
Finish with some cash ($25,000-$50,000)
Or a finish worthy of a photo! ($100,000!)
Or a finish worthy of a photo! ($100,000!)
Karim just needs to wind up before giving the Bonus Wheel a spin, after which he lands on the C in CASH. Karim can smell the big money! Can he smell an easy puzzle?

And there are too many vowels. He says APPLE & ORANGE, but he does not solve AUDIO & VIDEO...
...so we can only watch him miss out on $25,000. Karim goes home with $13,000 in cash.
In the post-game chat, Pat and Vanna are surprised how quickly time has flown. College Week is over, but there's one more week to go in Seattle!
