Jackpot Round - AROUND THE HOUSE
This week, the maingame categories are revealed by three jet planes.
Joe immediately BANKRUPTS. Later, Nicole lands on the Jackpot space and lights up three N's (she doesn't solve for an $8,450 Jackpot). After some work, she BANKRUPTS on the MDW's left side to lose $4,600. Patrick next picks up the Dick's Sporting Goods gift tag with four L's...
_ A L L - _ _ _ N T E _

T E L E _ I _ I _ N
...and then solves WALL-MOUNTED FLAT-SCREEN TELEVISION to keep it.
BANKRUPT HITS: 2 (Joe, Nicole)
UNCLAIMED JACKPOT: $8,450
(BTW, the Sears wedge was placed on the $300 space next to the pink $900 instead of the usual purple $350 where all prize wedges are placed.)

Nicole: $0
Patrick: $2,000
Joe: $2,000
