Shane then gets the same fate, so we're back to Sabrina...but she BANKRUPTS for the seond time tonight to lose $1,500 cash and gift tag. Susan next uncovers two L's for $7,000, but she then loses her turn with the O purchase. Shane then picks up the Wild Card with two C's, but then comes LAT. Soon enough, the puzzle reads...
