Jackpot Round - WHAT ARE YOU DOING? (PRIZE PUZZLE)
Noelle immediately BANKRUPTS on the MDW's right side. Secondly, Rhalanda puts up a T while on Jackpot and picks up the Lobster Gram gift tag w/ an H. A few spins later, she BANKRUPTS to lose $1,850 cash and lobster. Third, Tom puts up a G and an I, but then BANKRUPTS on the MDW's other side to forfeit $50. Noelle picks things up from here...

Round 2 - ROCK ON! (announced by Pat instead of Charlie)
Rhalanda BANKRUPTS on the MDW's right side after starting w/ a $600 T; that's her second such hit of the night. Secondly, Tom does some work and puts up $14K worth of N's, but he then BANKRUPTS painfully (also his second of the episode) to the tune of $16,750; darn. That's the largest BANKRUPT loss so far this season. Noelle narrows the puzzle down to two letters and picks up the Wild Card w/ a C, but she then squanders her turn and $2,600 w/ the L. Rhalanda fills in both the K and the W to complete the board...
