Mystery Round - BEFORE AND AFTER
Linda's initial letters are the ones spelling SET, but then a negative in R. Secondly, Marquita picks up the green 1/2 KIA w/ an N, but she's BANKRUPTED next to top dollar so there goes $1,150 and her plate. Christopher then wastes his turn on the Wild Card w/ an N repeat. Linda BANKRUPTS on the MDW's left side to lose $1,550. Marquita gets the other 1/2 KIA w/ a W, but next is a dud in K. Christopher leaves only one letter remaining in the top word...
