Perfection! Stephen reads what's on the board for the cash. Will he take it all? He can score a $500 bonus, and for this category, he must precisely give us the next line.
He'd be strictly guessing ...if he had a guess, that is. Maybe Jocelyn can speak up!
She also has nothing. Does Jerry have anything?
He has a guess of I only have eyes for you ...which is something, but it's a triple stumper. The line is I don't know if it's cloudy or bright.

$6,450 |
We wish we had eyes for Charlie, but we know we have ears. That's good enough for a Michael C. Fina 24-karat gold-plate 92-piece flatware service plus V.I.P. Collection tea and coffee service (labeled DINE) worth $2,750.
We do have eyes for a $2,500 space, and Jocelyn can finally grab the Wheel.

Jocelyn solves GARBAGE ? DUMP ? FIRE ? for whatever is on her arrow. Something else that could also be hers is a $500 bonus, but she must fill in the blank.
This is an easy one. She immediately fills in truck.
Along with the dining package, we throw in the SURPRISE. She has just won a holiday in Branson, Missouri worth $2,481.

Jocelyn solves PROLIFERATION. She's already won, but just because we like her so much, we'll offer her $500 to use the word in a sentence anyway.
"The contestants did not know what the word proliferated meant." Pat admits that they give a broad latitude, but that's a little too broad. He follows with how it means "spreading or multiplying".
Stephen | Jocelyn | Jerry |
$6,450 | $7,431 | $2,000 |
Jerry leaves with an all-cash total of $35,000!
BONUS ROUND:
Let's multiply that total, or whatever we have to do. Jocelyn can win a boat or a watch in Bonus Land!
We're down to two E's again, and Jocelyn will pick the first one. One last puzzle:

Back to more common choices of DPMA...
...but these are still too rare for this puzzle.
She says QUARTS, CARTS, GUESTS, and then jokes around with ZEBRAS. Her first guess was quite close. It was actually COHORTS...
...and she's not gonna be talking about that diamond watch. Jocelyn finishes with $7,431 in cash and prizes, and she returns next week.
