Could this be the week where we finally get our first (and maybe only) $100,000 winner of the season? Let's find out.
EPISODE #5616 - AMERICA'S GAME
We're kicking things off on the Hawaii set.
$1,000 Tossup - PROPER NAME
D A V _
_ _ O C _ _ _ T
Simms (a female) solves folk hero DAVY CROCKETT. Introducing Monday's players...
Simms Haguewood: Ole Miss senior studying elementary education and a teacher from Tupelo, MS
Dave Zachary: international documentations specialist and runner of two marathons from Brockton, MA
Anesha Williams: kindergarten teacher at Venetian Hills Elementary and stuffed animal collector from Jonesboro, GA
$2,000 Tossup - AROUND THE HOUSE
_ A _ I L _
H E I R _ O O _ S
Dave recalls his FAMILY HEIRLOOMS, so he's spinning first.
FEATURED PRIZE: Club Med Sandpiper Bay in Port St. Lucie, FL worth $5,500
Jackpot Round - OCCUPATION
For at least tonight, the category wipe is the Statue of Liberty.
Dave starts w/ five T's and purchases some vowels (two A's and three E's), but then runs into the LAT. Secondly, Anesha picks up the green 1/2 KIA w/ two N's. After buying two vowel singles, she gets the BnBFinder.com gift tag w/ two S's. Once she buys the last vowel of O...

...she solves UNITED STATES ATTORNEY for $1,250 cash and gift tag.
LAT: Dave
UNCLAIMED JACKPOT: $5,800
Pre-Round 2 Scores
Anesha: $1,250 cash and gift tag + 1/2 KIA
Simms: $1K
Dave: $2K
========
Mystery Round - RHYME TIME
Anesha loses control right away w/ a dud in T. Secondly, Simms FPs two E's and picks up a duplicate of the green 1/2 KIA w/ four R's...but says D for dummy on the next spin. Shortly after that is Dave's second LAT of the night. Anesha next puts up an H on the space where Simms picked up that 1/2 KIA, and follows up w/ singles of F and P (the latter via FP)...
A P R I _
S H O _ E R S
_ R I _ _ / M A _
F _ O _ E R S
...before reciting the line "APRIL SHOWERS BRING MAY FLOWERS" for $1,400 (it could've been $16,400 cash and Soul had Simms not picked up that plate).
DUDS: T (Anesha), D (Simms)
LAT: Dave
Pre-Round 3 Scores
Anesha: $2,650 cash and gift tag + 1/2 KIA
Simms: $1K
Dave: $2K
========
PRIZE PUZZLE Round - PHRASE
Simms immediately BANKRUPTS on the MDW's right side. Second for Dave are three T's, but the only dud vowel bites him (A). Third, Anesha doesa little work before saying L for loss of turn. Simms then puts up the letters spelling SUM (the U came on FP while the S's gave her the same 1/2 KIA)...
I / M U S T
_ E / _ O I _ G
S O M E T _ I _ G
R I G _ T
...and says "I MUST BE DOING SOMETHING RIGHT" for $3,300 and a $5,500 hotwire.com trip to The Fairmont Chateau Whistler in BRITISH COLUMBIA, a total of $8,800 that round.

Third, Simms puts up some singles and five A's before hitting her second BANKRUPT of the night (the one near FP) to lose $1,200. Dave's next choices are double M's and three N's via FP before we see...
