S40, EPISODE #7753: FUN & GAMES
Airdate: 3/15/23
Go!
AND THE WINNER IS...Carla.
Today's contestants:
Carla Sartori: St. Louis. She's married to Mark (they run a brewery; she works in the microbiology lab while the hubby is in the engineering department) with a bonus daughter (Kaitlyn; she's expecting) and a bulldog named Kevin. She's also a Scuba diver.
Stephen Hudson: Houston. Private voice teacher and church choir director whose mom's a singer. He also hosts a monthly event called Bourbon & Board Games.
Stephanie Davino: West Hollywood, CA. Associate marriage and family therapist who has a boyfriend named Ray (they own a dog named Brendel). She taught English as a 2nd language in Spain for 2 years and then used episodes of this show for international film students in the U.S.
Go!
Carla's 2-for-2 with SPORTS ANNOUNCER.
Stephen's FINISHING A CROSSWORD PUZZLE and wins the prize wedge.
MYSTERY ROUND
Speaking about crossword puzzles...
Stephen was this close to hitting BANKRUPT on his last spin.
PERFECTION! Stephen fills in LEAGUE, TOURNAMENT and GAME for even more money!
* SUMMER UPDATE: In the original airing, a cycle of lost turns was accidentally cut one turn too late, leaving an incorrect D from Carla on $500 while cutting out her BANKRUPT at the end of the cycle. This was fixed in the summer rerun and is likely to remain this way in the event of being rerun on Game Show Network or elsewhere.
Also in the original airing, Pat even mentioned about getting some money back when turn came back to Carla.
Carla will feel that in WAIKIKI (The Surfjack Hotel & Swim Club; $7,799).
