Jonathan King: software engineer for a large global company from Milford, NH
Lisha Shinolt: from Columbus, IN
Guadalupe Garcia: L.A. County Dept. of Health Services employee from Los Angeles
$2,000 Tossup - PERSON

Jonathan's two for two after finding his NEW BEST FRIEND fairly quickly.
SPAFINDER.COM TRIP ON THE WHEEL: to the Puntacana Resort & Club in the Dominican Republic worth $6,500

Jonathan starts with two T's for the WC, picks up the trip with four S's, but then LATs out. A little later, Lisha and Guadalupe BANKRUPT back-to-back (the former losing $350 to the MDW's right side). Jonathan next fills in the D's for $2,000 while on Jackpot...

Round 2 - SHOW BIZ
Lisha immediately picks up the MDW with three T's. Shortly, she buys a bad vowel in A. We get back to her immediately after the other players made their mistakes (see below). She lights up a $3,500 S. Later, she goofs with an M while on FP. She keeps spinning...
