Things have been quiet so far this week. Let's hope Thursday night will be a terrific one.
EPISODE #5079 - PALAZZO WEEK (LAS VEGAS)
$1,000 Tossup - PHRASE
P E _ _ _ C T

Julie doesn't get a SURPRISE VISIT right now, but she'll be spinning first.
FEATURED TRIP: Rocky Mountaineer Canadian train tour worth $6,800
Jackpot Round - SONG LYRICS
Julie starts things off w/ a T and two A's, but then R for roadblock while on the MDW. Secondly, Michelle wastes a spin w/ the LAT. Third, Evan gets six S's for a $3K start and finishes off the vowels with the I's before...
A / _ I S S / I S
S T I _ _ / A / _ I S S
...solving "A KISS IS STILL A KISS" (from "Casablanca") for the remaining $2,750.

Round 2 - WHAT ARE YOU DOING? (PRIZE PUZZLE)
It's all Michelle this round...
N A _ _ I N _ / I N
A / H A _ _ O C _
O N / T H E / _ E A C H
She wins her first $5,300 and will be NAPPING IN A HAMMOCK ON THE BEACH on her way to the Renaissance ARUBA Resort & Casino worth $6,205, a total of $11,505 cash and trip.
PERFECT ROUND!
Pre-Round 3 Scores
Evan: $3,750
Julie: $2K
Michelle: $11,505 cash and Aruba
========
Mystery Round - BEFORE AND AFTER
Evan picks up that MDW right away w/ the N. Shortly after that is L for loss of turn. Secondly, Julie picks up the Wild Card w/ two S's and says R while on the Mystery Wedge next to the now-vacant MDW. She puts her WC at risk...the $10K's there! But she then BANKRUPTS to lose both valuable pieces of cardboard. Michelle controls the rest of the round (she thought about spinning again after buying the U)...
C R U S _ E _
I C E
