This has been a rough week so far. Let's hope we have a big episode on this Thursday night.
EPISODE #5089 - FALL FOLIAGE
$1,000 Tossup - LIVING THING
F _ Y I _ G
S _ _ _ _ _ _ L
John dodges the FLYING SQUIRREL, so let's meet him and the female opposition right now...

Rebecca Gutierrez: UCLA graduate and CPA form Santa Barbara
Samantha Turner: works for a lawyer from Fredericksburg, VA
$2,000 Tossup - RHYME TIME
F R _ _ / Z E _ O
T _ / _ _ _ _
John's two for two w/ FROM ZERO TO HERO.
FF TRIP: to the Bar Harbor Hotel in Maine worth $5,500
Jackpot Round - THINGS
John starts w/ an instant dud of T while on Fp. Later, he picks up the Maine trip w/ three R's and FPs a pair of D's. After some work, he BANKRUPTS to loese $7,800 cash and trip. Secondly, Rebecca finds a single B but nothing else w/ the L. Third, Samantha spots $1,200 worth of C's, but BANKRUPTS right after that. Towards the end, John lights up the M for the Wild Card...
C _ A R M I N G
C O V E R E D

...and solves CHARMING COVERED BRIDGES for the house minimum.

BANKRUPTS: 2 (John, Samantha)
UNCLAIMED JACKPOT: $9,350
Pre-Round 2 Scores
John: $4K + WC

========
Round 2 - BEFORE AND AFTER
Rebecca's first w/ the letters spelling THE, but next is the LAT. Secondly, both Samantha and John BANKRUPT back-to-back (the former was on the MDW's left side while the latter loses the WC to a normal one). Rebecca loses control w/ the S. Samantha locates two C's for $700, but then BANKRUPTS on the other side of the MDW; that's her third one of the night. John follows suit w/ $14K worth of a B and three R's. After buying a couple of vowels...
T H E / B _ _ I R
_ I T C H
_ R O _ E C T
R _ _ _ _ _
...he blows the solve with "THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT REPORT" to likely throw away $13,500. Rebecca picks up the ProFlowers gift tag w/ an L. Soon enough...

Samantha's first letters are an R and three E's, but then S for sorry. John FPs three T's and then collects $2K from the Mystery Wedge next to it (that would've been his third BANKRUPT of the episode). After buying the I's, he hits that same MW two more times and takes $3K more for an H and two W's. Later, he tries to make up for his R2 blunder w/ the following...
_ R I _ A T E
