Joey solves COMMANDING OFFICER. This is Day 2 of "Military Week", and here are the complete biographies of our next three military personnel...
Joey Fountain: Navy cryptologic technician (12 years) originally from Jacksonville, FL
Roger Lyday: Air Force staff sergeant (6 years) from Springfield, OH
Mahasin Abdullah: Coast Guard intelligence specialist attending the university of Phoenix from Salisbury, MD
$2,000 Tossup - ON THE MAP
_ O R T H
_ A R O _ _ _ A
Joey's two for two with NORTH CAROLINA.
PRIZE ON THE WHEEL: the $5,000 Sears shopping spree available all week long
Jackpot Round - AROUND THE HOUSE
Early on, Roger picks up the TomTom gift tag with three T's, but he then misses on the Jackpot space with an S. Later on, Mahasin lights up two I's on Free Play. She then picks up three pieces of cardboard consecutively -- the Wild Card with an H, the MDW with an L, and the Sears gift certificate with two D's. Soon enough, she faces this...
D I G I T A L
_ A _ E R A / A N D
_ H O T O / _ R I N T E R
She solves DIGITAL CAMERA AND PHOTO PRINTER for $7,250 cash and gift certificate.
SOLE DUD: S (Roger)
BANKRUPT HIT: Joey at the start
UNCLAIMED JACKPOT: $7,200
(NOTE: Each time a player lands on FP during the Jackpot Round, the Jackpot grows by $500 just like when he/she lands on the Jackpot space itself.)
Pre-Round 2 Scores:
Joey: $3,000
Roger: $0
Mahasin: $7,250 + MDW + WC
========
Round 2 - BEFORE AND AFTER
Roger immediately hits LAT. Mahasin then BANKRUPTS to give back both the MDW and the WC, while Joey misses with an R. Roger tries to have better luck, but he misses with an S. When we get back to him, he does some work, but misses again with a G. Mahasin then BANKRUPTS again. Joey next lights up the W...

Mystery Round - WHAT ARE YOU DOING? (PRIZE PUZZLE)
Mahasin gets off to a bad start with an R. Joey next puts up two I's on FP. He fills in most of the puzzle, but KNOCKS HIMSELF OUT with a D while on the Mystery Wedge between FP and LAT. That allows Roger to solve...
S E E I N G / T H E
S I G H T S / O F
S O U T H / _ E A _ H
He will be SEEING THE SIGHTS OF SOUTH BEACH while at the Beacon Hotel in MIAMI, FL worth $5,000. Joey's big error has costed him another $12,000 cash and trip.

P A R _ D E
Roger solves TICKER-TAPE PARADE, giving him $8,000.
Round 4 - PHRASE (full $6,000 speed-up round!)
This should really make up for lost time. Late in the round, Joey decides to solve immediately after Mahasin lights up the E's...
E _ E R _ T H I N G / I S
S H I _ S H _ _ E
He blows the $6,000 solve with EVERYTHING IS SUNSHINE. Roger puts up the V next...
E V E R _ T H I N G / I S
S H I _ S H _ _ E
...he also bombs the solve with EVERYTHING IS SHIPSHORE. He very likely sent another $36,000 down the drain.
