Sean starts off on a bad note w/ a negative of F while on $2,500. Secondly, Beth BANKRUPTS on the MDW's right side. Janice gets her run going w/ a $600 T, but she and Sean dud out w/ O and S, respectively. Back to Beth who picks up the Spain tour w/ three N's, but she LATs out.

Mystery Round - BEFORE AND AFTER
Beth calls an instant dud of N while on the ZAGAT gift tag. Second for Janice is the LAT. Sean puts up the letters spelling TEA before saying S for sorry. Beth next lands on the Mystery Wedge next to the MDW. She puts up double P's, turns down the $2K bribe...and BANKRUPTS for the second time tonight. Janice calls D for dummy, allowing Sean to gain control back. He FPs the only bad vowel of this puzzle (I) and later lights up a $3,500 H. After a long deliberation, he uses the WC...but he gets buzzed out for not coming up with the C in time. Beth BANKRUPTS on the other side of the MDW (that's her third hit of the night), allowing Janice...

PRIZE PUZZLE Round - RHYME TIME
Janice immediately BANKRUPTS on the MDW's left side. Sean picks up the gift tag w/ four N's, but then gives it right back to the BANKRUPT next to the old WC location. LAT takes down Beth for the second time tonight. Janice tries again w/ five T's worth $3K (could have been $17,500), but she buys the only bad vowel of this puzzle (O). Sean does some work before getting that same BANKRUPT to lose $850. Beth falls victim to LAT for the third time this evening. Janice then puts up two D's for $7K, but she strikes out w/ P. Sean FPs the C's and he tries to get us out of this nightmare...
