Jackpot Round - FUN AND GAMES
James instantly BANKRUPTS while Sangita hits LAT two spins later. Tamara misses with a T while on the Wild Card, so we get back to James almost immediately. He calls G for Greece, but after some work, he repeats the A he already called. Sangita hits LAT again while Tamara picks up the WC this time with two D's. The board now reads...

Mystery Round - EVENT (PRIZE PUZZLE)
Tamara immediately lands on the Mystery Wedge between $300 and $800. She lights up a T, and risks both $1,000 and the WC...for a big fat zero. James is next with two H's for $7,000. Later, we see this...

T H E / _ I _ / A P P _ E
He solves this puzzle for $6,600 and will be SEEING A SHOW IN THE BIG APPLE (aka NEW YORK CITY); it's a trip to the Alex Hotel with tickets to "Jersey Boys" worth $7,715, and he's won $14,315 that round.

Round 4 - COLLEGE LIFE (full $1,500 speed-up round)
_ L L - N I G H T

Tamara only says ALL-NIGHT, so she likely misses out on another $9,000. James then puts up two A's...
A L L - N I G H T
_ R A _ / S E S S I _ N
...but he blows the solve by adding an S in front of the third word (ALL-NIGHT SCRAM SESSION), so another $4,500 might be going down the drain for him. After that comes an M from Sangita's mouth...
A L L - N I G H T
