Two more nights to go in New Orleans. Here's Day 4 of "Fabulous Food" week.
$1,000 Tossup - FOOD AND DRINK
O _ S T E R S
_ _ C K _ _ _ _ L _ R
Michael solves OYSTERS ROCKEFELLER, meaning we're interviewing him first.
Michael Martinez: bartender from Marrero, LA
Jessi Cantrell: recent graduate with a master's in criminology from St. Rose, LA
Azure Bridgewater: sophomore at Southern University in Baton Rouge from Baton Rouge, LA
$2,000 Tossup - ON THE MAP
_ H E / _ _ U T H
_ _ / _ _ _ _ C _
Jessi gets THE SOUTH OF FRANCE.
PRIZE ON THE WHEEL: trip to the Silverado Resort & Spa in Napa Valley worth $9,250
Jackpot Round - WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
Jessi gets the -ING ending right away, but she BANKRUPTS to lose $850. Later, Azure gets the same fate via the MDW's right side with $1,500 in her bank. Michael lands on $2,500, but whiffs with the D. Soon enough, we have...
E N J O _ I N G
S _ _ U _ _ T I O U S
A _ _ E T I _ E _ S
Jessi solves ENJOYING SCRUMPTIOUS APPETIZERS (she nearly messed up the last word) for the house minimum.
SOLE DUD: D (Michael)
BANKRUPT HITS: 2 (both ladies)
UNCLAIMED JACKPOT: $10,100
Pre-Round 2 Scores
Michael: $1K
Jessi: $3K
Azure: $0
========
Round 2 - SAME NAME
Azure picks up the MDW with three N's. She also lands on FP, and lights up the K. After a lot of work, she BLOWS HER TURN with the M to let $4,300 and the MDW go to waste. Michael then calls the D...
S E V E N - L A Y E R
& / S K I N N Y -
D I _
...and solves SEVEN-LAYER & SKINNY-DIP for the house minimum.
SOLE DUD: M (Azure)
Pre-Round 2 Scores
Michael: $2K
Jessi: $3K
Azure: $0
========
Mystery Round - PHRASE (PRIZE PUZZLE)
Michael starts with the T for the Wild Card. Next comes an N for Napa Valley. He misses with an S, however. Jessi lands on the Mystery Wedge between FP and LAT on her second spin, but she strikes out with the L. Azure also loses her turn with W, so we're back to Michael...but he BANKRUPTS to give up $10,750 cash and trip as well as the WC. Ouch. That allows Jessi to solve...
_ O _ / C A N ' T
_ A _ _ / _ O _ R
C A _ _ / A N D
_ _ T / _ T / T O O
She says YOU CAN'T HAVE YOUR CAKE AND EAT IT TOO for $400...and a trip to the Marriott Resort in ST. KITTS worth $6,230; that's a total of $6,630 that round.
TRIP SPIN ID: GK9954398 (Georgette K. from California)
DUDS: S (Michael), L (Jessi), W (Azure)
BANKRUPT HIT: Michael
Pre-Tossup #3 Scores
Michael: $2K
Jessi: $9,630
Azure: $0
========
$3,000 Tossup - PROPER NAME
_ _ _ A N
O ' B _ _ _ N
Michael solves CONAN O'BRIEN, giving him five grand.
Round 4 - IN THE KITCHEN (full $1,600 speed-up round)
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ N / _ _ _ N _ _
Michael amazingly solves ELECTRIC CAN OPENER with just those N's! But his $3,200 doesn't make him the big winner, though...
FINAL SCORES
Michael: $8,200
Jessi: $9,630 cash and trip
Azure: $1,000
TOTAL MAINGAME WINNINGS: an underwhelming $18,830
========
$100,000 Bonus Round
Our hopes of yet another PERFECT BR WEEK this season may very well go down the tubes thanks to what happened, but let's see if Jessi can bail us out. She lands on the C in AMERICA'S.
Category: THING (you guessed it)
This is all she gets to begin with...
_ _ T
T _ _ _ _
H, B, C and O work out nicely...
H O T
T O _ _ C
She almost blows it with HOT TONIC, but she's gonna be the HOT TOPIC of the night after winning another $30,000! That sends her away with $39,630 cash and trip, and the Rebuilding Together bank has broke the $30,000 mark!
Tomorrow, we have a chance for our third PBRW!
