Mystery Round - BEFORE AND AFTER
Our PP winners start w/ an N but then miss w/ S. The mother/daughter duo got $7,000 with two T's. They WISELY use their WC and get more money with an R. Shortly, however, they purchase a bad vowel in I, to leave $9,750 on the table for the moment. Third, the Burnses put in a semi-obvious F, but they also miss w/ D. After Randy & Steph finish off the vowels, they BANKRUPT normally to give up $1,250. That opens the door for Colleen & Kara...
