Jocelyn Quiles: From Chicago, IL (originally from Florida); her husband Nick of 5 years is Chicago born-and-raised, so she's trying to win some money so she can go back to Florida; she's been a nurse for 17 years and counting, with her background being ER in trauma, but as of late, she stepped back for a bit to be at home with her daughter (and now she remembers to say her husband's name)
L.J. Holmes: From Mount Pleasant, MI; has a 3-year-old son, "best friend in the world right there"; he collects building blocks/colorful bricks that stack together ("without naming names"), comics, and cassettes, just all that vintage stuff

In the final segment, Pat brings up that Vanna used to sell stuff on HSN years ago. Vanna dolls, specifically, and her favorite is the mother and baby from when her son was born. It even has Niko's information on the back! He's been immortalized! Pat says he had this in his collection...no, he didn't. Vanna grabs it back.
