EPISODE #5574 - AMERICAN LANDMARKS
$1,000 Tossup - TV TITLE
T _ _ V _ L
C _ A _ _ _ L
Justin solves the TRAVEL CHANNEL. Once again, we have two men and one woman competing. They are...
Justin Davenport: LSU junior studying chemistry and a Chi Alpha member from Baton Rouge
Brian Pacheco: nurse and a member of the band Taller in Person from Belmont, MA
Lou Salute: retired education company VP, local senior citizen volunteer and a very lucky slot machine player from West Hills, CA
$2,000 Tossup - LIVING THING
D E S E R T
C _ _ O T _
Lou slowly, but barely gets DESERT COYOTE.
AMERICAN TRIP ON THE WHEEL: to the Kimberly Hotel in NYC from worldhotels.com worth $7,900
Jackpot Round - LANDMARK
Lou starts things on a bad note w/ the BANKRUPT next to the WC. A little later, Justin picks up the green 1/2 KIA w/ two T's. Towards the end, he FPs some O's...
_ E L L O _ S T O _ E
_ A T _ O _ A L / _ A R _
...and then solves YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK for $4,300.
BANKRUPT: Lou
UNCLAIMED JACKPOT: $8,200
Pre-Round 2 Scores
Brian: $0
Lou: $2K
Justin: $5,300 + 1/2 KIA
========
Mystery Round - WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
Justin immediately picks up his second 1/2 KIA from the same position w/ three N's. After buying the I's, he hits LAT. Brian secondly BANKRUPTS on the same one Lou got in the opening round. Speaking of the lady in the middle, she puts up double G's while on the Mystery Wedge next to the MDW, turns down $2K...and BANKRUPTS for the second time tonight. Over to Justin...but he gets shot down by the other normal BANKRUPT to give up $1,600 AND that KIA Soul. Darn. After that, Brian picks up the NYC trip with four T's. He spins once more for the H's, and the board now reads...
_ _ T T I N G / T H _
I C I N G / O N / T H _
C _ _ _
He's PUTTING THE ICING ON THE CAKE for a total of $9,500 cash and trip.
BANKRUPTS: 3 (entire panel)
LAT: Justin
Pre-Round 3 Scores
Brian: $9,500
Lou: $2K
Justin: $5,300
========
PRIZE PUZZLE Round - THING
Brian does a great deal for hitting the BANKRUPT next to $3,500 to lose $2,300; that's his second such hit of the night. Lou spins once for $1,200 worth of S's...
H A N D _ A D E
S E A S H E L L
N E _ _ L A _ E
...and she can buy a HANDMADE SEASHELL NECKLACE while at the Makena Beach & Golf Resort in MAUI worth $6K; that round was worth $7,200 to her.
TRIP SPIN ID: TH8123845 (Tracy H.)
AIRED BANKRUPT: Brian
EDIT ALERT: A "null cycle" was edited out between Brian's calls of N and L at the start of the round.
Pre-Tossup #3 Scores
Brian: $9,500
Lou: $9,200
Justin: $5,300
========
$3,000 Tossup - SHOW BIZ
_ _ U N _ _ _ / M _ _ _ C
_ _ T I S _
One such example is Carrie Underwood, and Justin solves COUNTRY MUSIC ARTIST to go to $8,300.
Round 4 - AROUND THE HOUSE
Justin's initial picks are two L's and three E's, but he then gets nailed by LAT for the second time tonight. Secondly, Brian BANKRUPTS for the third time tonight (the one near FP). Lou also gets her second LAT of the night. Justin narrows things down to this...
_ _ _ _ E R _ A L
R E _ O T E / _ O _ T R O L
He comes up w/ UNIVERSAL REMOTE CONTROL for $3,100 and the lead w/ $11,400.
BANKRUPT: Brian
LATs: 2 (Justin, Lou)
Round 5 - PHRASE
Brian misses early on with the L. Lou's second in line with an S and two U's, but she misses with the J. Justin gets his second BANKRUPT of the evening courtesy of the one Brian got in the previous round. Brian uncovers three M's, but it's time for speed-up mode...
_ _ U / M U S T / _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ / M _ / M _ N _
...and the rest of the consonants each yield $1,350. This is going to be a doozy once you read the action of this round. His next call is twin D's...
_ _ U / M U S T / _ _ _ _
_ _ _ D / M _ / M _ N D
...but he has nothing. Lou's next with the Y's...
Y _ U / M U S T / _ _ _ _
_ _ _ D / M Y / M _ N D
...but she also blanks out. Maybe the E's will lead Brian to the right answer...
Y _ U / M U S T / _ _ _ E
_ E _ D / M Y / M I N D
...once again, nothing. Lou thinks she knows it after saying R...
Y _ U / M U S T / _ _ _ E
R E _ D / M Y / M I N D
...still no answer. Justin says H...
Y _ U / M U S T / H _ _ E
R E _ D / M Y / M I N D
...NOTHING! Brian calls that last consonant of V...
Y _ U / M U S T / H _ V E
R E _ D / M Y / M I N D
He finally gets the job done w/ "YOU MUST HAVE READ MY MIND" for $6,150!

RSTLNE reveals...
_ _ _ S E _ _ R _ _ N _
_ _ _ T
G, D, P and O give him...
_ O _ S E _ _ R _ _ N G
G _ _ T
He will NOT be getting the HOUSEWARMING GIFT of the Winnebago (second time this week that's been lost), because he only gets the second word. That sends him home w/ $15,650 cash and NYC.
