From Sony Pictures Studio, it's America's game! Welcome to Aruba Week!
Go!
Laurie solves SCRABBLE & MONOPOLY.
Would've been a good chance to triple the value of the $10,000 prize if we can't triple its width.
Colleen solves R & B LEGEND ARETHA FRANKLIN.
Respect for Charlie for continuing to announce prizes for us! Today, we're getting a holiday at the Tamarijn Aruba All Inclusive resort (labeled ARUBA) worth $4,700.
Colleen solves CELTICS TEA PARTY BEANTOWN. She can more than double that score right now! $3,000 extra if she knows where we are!
It's time to play that game of Chance. It's the Mystery Round! All or nothing, as one of the wedges is a BANKRUPT, while the other is a Bloomingdale's gift certificate worth $10,000.
Laurie reads what's on the puzzleboard that she just monopolized, and she's won the trip.
Go!
Laurie solves QUIET ON THE SET.
Quiet, audience! Save your cheering for when she lands on the $5,000 space.
Perfection! Laurie solves THE UNITED KINGDOM for another great total!
DING DING! DING DING!
But it will be a quick round, and Pat gives the Wheel a Final Spin. Consonants are worth $450 + $1,000 for $1,450 a piece. Mike begins.
Mike: R ($1,450)
Colleen: T (DUD!)
Laurie: S (DUD!)
Mike: N ($2,900)
Colleen: L (DUD!)
Laurie: D (x2) ($2,900)

And Mike continues to monopolize the blank board, which means he winds up with the $500 consolation prize.
BONUS ROUND:
Look at her go! Laurie is having a good day, and she can finish it by winning a car or cash up to $100,000!
She has her cousin and his wife in the audience!
The day will end with a spin of the Bonus Wheel, an envelope from the B in BONUS, and this puzzle on the board:

She mixes it up with PMWO...
...and now she's all tangled up.
She says BAKER, BILLER, BILER, FILER, FAKER, and YAMMER. Pat liked that last one, but it was HIKER...
...and she couldn't find the $25,000 on that hiking trail. Laurie still leaves with $30,350 in cash and trip.
In the post-game chat, Pat and Vanna share a box of Dutch chocolates, as Dutch is the official language in the area. There are little tulips on the chocolates, which taste great.
