Ross eats a BANANA SPLIT.
This week's last three teens include…
Ross Campbell: Carlisle, OH; sophomore; varsity golf team member since 9th grade, has played golf since he was "between golf club"; obsessed with politics and Dolly Parton; local celebrity who rides his scooter around town
Franchesca Fenton: Atwater, CA; junior; theatre actor in school and local productions since 1st grade, wants to be a Broadway star; tennis player since grade 10th grade, made it to the playoffs this year; her first word was Jeopardy!
Isheeta Gore: Phoenix, AZ; was born in Phoenix, moved to India at 2.5 years old, lived there for eight years; captain of her 18-time winning speech and debate team (the best in the state); does public forum debate on another activity, poetry; earned 7th place in the India Spelling Bee, made it to two finals in the International Bee
After Ross mentions Dolly Parton, he says, "I'm gonna work '9 to 5' today." And after Franchesca mentions her first word, Pat tells her, "Well, we forgive you for that."

PERFECT ROUND! Ross has been VOLUNTEERING IN THE COMMUNITY, so he's earned an Apple gift card. After he waves his cardboard around, Pat calls him "wild" (like the WILD CARD).
MYSTERY ROUND
RHYME TIME
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Pat says he would've given Ross an N for his excitement. And as he flipped the MYSTERY wedge, he yells, "I like money!"
I B E _ _ R E E
E _ C E _ T A _ T E R C
Ross remembers the spelling rule "I BEFORE E EXCEPT AFTER C" to win more money! Ross wouldn't let Pat speak, so Pat concedes, "There's really no need for me at all." Then Ross shouts, "SPIN ID, someone at home" before the $10,000 recipient is revealed.

Ross almost leaves out the third word ("THIS IS EXCITI–"), but restarts, rebounds, and raises his score with a trip to PUERTO RICO (Rincon Beach Resort, $9,200) – THIS IS SO EXCITING! Pat: "Is it any wonder they all know him in Carlisle, Ohio?"

Isheeta didn't care how much money she had (per Pat). She just wanted to discover some DINOSAUR FOSSILS, so she finally wins $1,000.

ISHEETA'S FINAL SPIN: $1,900
_ - P _ P _ _ _ _
Isheeta guesses K-POP IDOL… not it.
K - P _ P _ _ _ _
Ross thinks the answer is K-POP STAR… no! He also throws out guesses of K-POP GROUP, BAND, K-POP, and K-POP GROUP again (the latter after the buzzer).
K - P _ P B _ _ _
Turns out, Ross had the right idea but didn't say both words together, meaning Franchesca meets a K-POP BAND.
CUMULATIVE WINNINGS: $37,350
BONUS ROUND CATEGORIES
Ross couldn't wait to pick that category. Pat tells us, "You probably know him from Carlisle, Ohio."
$100,000 BONUS ROUND
After Ross introduces his mom and dad, Pat claims he "makes it pretty interesting around the house." Ross's strong spin lands him on the M in GAME.

…is a decent combo, but Ross is off target with guesses of …TO GOALS, THINKING TO GOALS, GETTING TO GOALS, THINKING THE GOALS, THINKING THE…, HARDENING THE GOALS, and EMPTYING THE GOALS. He isn't ACHIEVING MY GOALS, so he dusts off the $40,000 he lost. (Pat: "Is he mugging behind me?") But his final total is nothing to sneeze at: $30,450.
CHAT: The hosts enjoyed this week, and Pat claims that next week has "just a bunch of adults," but guarantees us that it'll be fun.
