Oh, and she has her sister and two friends in the audience. We accidentally forgot that.

PLACE

RSTLNE gives her:

PLACE

With so much space, PMCA should do something...

...and it happens to be useless.

She whispers some guesses to herself and does not solve BOROUGH...

...and stuck in this borough is the $40,000. Holly returns to Hawaii with $19,300 in cash.

In the post-game chat, Pat and Vanna are happy that a lot of people are going to Aruba. We gave away a lot of trips this week and had fun featuring the great place this week.
