Jackpot Round - PLACES (PRIZE PUZZLE)
Allison gets going w/ two pairs of S's and E's, but then BANKRUPTS to lose $1,550. Shrotly after that, Jenna gets the same fate to give up $650. Matt buys the only bad vowel of this puzzle (U), and decides to keep his FS (wha?). After Jenna spins once for a $400 L...
_ _ E A T _ T A _ I N G
_ O A S T L I N E S

Round 4 - SONG TITLE
Jenna puts up $10,000 worth of R's, but then makes a bad purchase of A. Matt finally uses the FS after saying a negative in N, but he then strikes out w/ the D. We now go into speed-up mode...

_ R R E S _ S T _ _ _ E
...w/ the remaining consonants worth $6,000 each! Allison lights up twin L's...
S _ _ _ L _
