G R A M M _
A _ A R D - _ I _ _ I _ G
R E C O R _ I _ G

PRIZE PUZZLE Round - SAME LETTER
The scoreless Nicole starts this round w/ two singles (R and T) and double E's before she picks up the same 1/2 KIA w/ two N's. But she says S for stop. Towards the end, Russ uncovers the SL of three W's for $1,500...
W O N _ E R _ U L
W _ A L E
W A T _ _ I N G
...and he'll likely do some WONDERFUL WHALE WATCHING, because he's won $2,100 plus the $6K caravan.com TOUR OF CANADA (New Brunswick, PEI and Nova Scotia) for a total of $8,100 that round.

$3,000 Tossup - WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
C _ T C _ - _ P
This would've applied to Nicole or Russ, but Krystal solves PLAYING CATCH-UP to be $100 shy of the $24K mark.
Round 4 - FOOD AND DRINK
Krystal does some work, but then gets stopped by the only dud vowel of this puzzle (I). Afterwards, Nicole leaves one letter remaining...
R O A S T E D

Russ: $12,650 cash and Canada
Krystal: $23,900
Round 5 - FUN AND GAMES
Nicole BANKRUPTS next to the old WC location after starting w/ an $800 T...
(EDIT ALERT: A "null" cycle was edited out at this point, evidenced by Pat emphasizing "We do have N's" despite no prior duds this round.)
..."Secondly", Russ does a little work, but time's running out...
_ _ _ N T A I N
_ I _ I N _
...and the remaining consonants are worth $1,400 each.
M _ _ N T A I N
_ I _ I N _
Krystal flubs twice w/ MOUNTAIN DIVING and MOUNTAIN RIDING, but she barely gets MOUNTAIN BIKING (there was an obvious edit of Pat checking w/ the judges at the time of her solve) for $1,400.
SOLE AIRED DUD (after Final Spin): F (Russ)
THE NIGHT'S ONLY AIRED BANKRUPT: Nicole
DQs: 2 (Krystal's blown solves)

Of course, it would be easier to pretend it didn't happen if Krystal hadn't won. 
Loved her quick BR calls. She deserved more than that over-used 30K.
