$1,000 Tossup - PLACE
_ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ E _ T
_ _ T Y
Here's another nickname of New Orleans, and Christy quickly solves THE CRESCENT CITY. Thursday's panel for Day 4 of "Celebrating New Orleans" consists of....
Christy Jolicoeur: from Slidell, LA (no occupation mentioned; she mentions that she's "awesome")
Josh Duffy: singer/songwriter, actor and flautist who loves meteorology from NO
Marsha Thompson: police officer/recruiter and works with the SPCA from NO
$2,000 Tossup - THINGS
_ R _ _ N D L Y
_ A _ E S
Christy has nothing, while Marsha whiffs with FRIENDLY WAVES. Let's see if Josh can get this one before that last letter appears...
F R I E N D L Y
F A _ E S
...but he only says FRIENDLY, meaning we have our second TOSSUP TRIPLE STUMPER of the season. All three of them couldn't recognize any FRIENDLY FACES. Anyway, Marsha is beginning the first round.
PRIZE ON THE WHEEL: a Mediterranean Cruise from Oceania Cruises worth $8,000
Jackpot Round - BEFORE AND AFTER
Early on, Marsha picks up the Wild Card with two T's, but she misses with the S. Christy then BANKRUPTS while Josh picks things up from there...
B E A U T Y
M A R K
T _ A _ N
...and he solves BEAUTY MARK TWAIN for $2,600; the first half was used as a bonus puzzle from last season.

Pre-Round 2 Scores

Round 2 - PHRASE (PRIZE PUZZLE)
_ I _ E / A / _ R E A T H
O _ / _ R E S H / A I R
Solving this puzzle is LIKE A BREATH OF FRESH AIR, as Josh dominates this round for $2,800...and the $6,000 caravan.com TOUR OF THE CANADIAN ROCKIES; he wins $8,800 that round.

Mystery Round - SONG LYRICS
Josh immediately cashes in $3,500 with four T's! After he purchases the A's and the E's, he hits $3,500 again and lights up two H's! That puts him at $20,500 at this point. He then lights up NINE O's before hitting $3,500 one more time and calling the D's! He dominates...
D O / D O
T H A T / _ O O D O O
