This week, our contestants are taking a "Road Trip" to hopefully big winnings. Also, we have a pair of new wedges in play. We'll get to that later.
Animated Intro of the Week: the same one from the four-day "Get Out of Town" week -- Pat hitching a ride in Vanna's convertible.
Joe Cipriano is the guest announcer for this week.

Trevor solves Alaska's MOUNT MCKINLEY.
PRIZE ON THE WHEEL: a $5,500 carvan.com tour of the California Coast
Jackpot Round - PLACES
For at least this week only, we have a pair of 1/2 car wedges with a design that's similar to that of the MDW (the left and right sides of them have orange $500 spaces instead of BANKRUPTS). The wedges are available during the first three rounds. If a player collects BOTH wedges during the game and solves a puzzle, they could be driving off in a new Hyundai Accent GS! Also, the Wild Card has been moved from $700 to the pink $900. Finally, the red $900 is now blue to avoid blending in with the car wedges.
With all that being said, Trevor starts with five S's for the California vacation. After some work, he BANKRUPTS on the MDW's right side to give up $8,250 cash and trip. Amy fills in a few letters before BANKRUPTING to let $2,550 go to waste. Trevor Free Plays with two V's...

Mystery Round - FUN AND GAMES (PRIZE PUZZLE)
Midway in the round, Amber lights up two A's via FP, but then misses with an R. Amy calls two L's on the Mystery Wedge between FP and LAT, and declines the $2,000 gamble. The board now reads...
_ _ I L _ I N G
S A N _ _ A S _ L E S
After solving for the two grand, she'll be BUILDING SANDCASTLES while at the Almond Beach Club & Spa in BARBADOS ($7,000); she's won $9,000 that round. Could she have had a much bigger lead had she decided to flip the MW over...NO!
