It's time to wrap up what has been a crazy "Great Escapes" week at the Sony Studios.

GE ON THE WHEEL: a Royal Clipper Caribbean cruise worth $8,090
Jackpot Round - BEFORE AND AFTER
Early on, Bonnie cashes in $5,000 with a pair of T's...but she duds out with a B after filling in more than half the puzzle. Erica then picks up the MDW with a D. Two spins later, however, she BANKRUPTS between $900 and $600 to surrender that wedge along with $1,500. Jason's back in control...
A D _ P T / A
P E T

========
Round 2 - PHRASE (PRIZE PUZZLE)
Bonnie immediately picks up the Select Registry gift tag with a pair of N's. But she then BANKRUPTS on the same spot Erica hit in the Jackpot Round to give it right back. Said yellow player lights up $4,200 worth of six T's and buys some vowels, but the O is no good. Third, Jason repeats the N. Bonnie fills in some more letters and we now have...
T _ I N G S / A R _
G _ T T I N G
_ _ T T _ R / A _ _
T _ _ / T I _ _
THINGS ARE GETTING BETTER ALL THE TIME for Bonnie as she solves this puzzle for $3,100...and a trip to the Adventure Lodge in BELIZE worth $5,300. She's on the board with $8,400.
