TPH isn't available to do tonight's show because of being on a longer vacation than usual, so for the first time in a while, I'm doing a whole week of recaps.
EPISODE #5555 - WHEEL AROUND THE WORLD
$1,000 Tossup - LANDMARK
M _ _ N _ / F U J I
_ _ / J _ P _ _
Andrea is incorrect w/ MOUNT FUJI OF JAPAN.
M _ _ N T / F U J I
_ _ / J _ P _ _
Dennis gets the right preposition for MOUNT FUJI IN JAPAN. The end-of-the-week players...
Dennis Woodzisz: senior graphics designer for a large casino resort from Palm Springs, CA (originally from Parma Heights, OH)
Andrea Greenlee: children's bookseller who's wearing classic literature tattoos from Albuquerque, NM
Lauryn Smith : nursing student who's about to graduate from school this semester from Inglewood Nashville, TN
$2,000 Tossup - FUN AND GAMES
S K _ _ E _ O _ R _ _ _ G
Dennis is two for two w/ SKATEBOARDING.
PRIZE ON THE WHEEL: caravan.com tour of Panama worth $5,500
Jackpot Round - WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
Dennis leads off w/ an N for the green 1/2 KIA, but he BANKRUPTS next to the Wild Card to lose the plate and $300. Andrea's first spin yields LAT. Lauryn picks up the Wild Card w/ four T's, but she and Dennis then get that same BANKRUPT back-to-back, which costs her the WC. Andrea buys the only bad vowel of this puzzle (O). Lauryn FPs the A to clean out the vowels...
_ E T T I N G / U _
T H E / _ A M _ _ I T E
...before SETTING UP THE CAMPSITE for the house minimum.
SOLE DUD: O (Andrea)
BANKRUPTS: 3 (Dennis 2x, Lauryn)
LAT: Andrea
UNCLAIMED JACKPOT: $7,700
Pre-Round 2 Scores
Lauryn: $1K

========
PRIZE PUZZLE Round - PHRASE
Lauryn begins w/ three T's for the green 1/2 KIA, but the only bad vowel of this puzzle stops her (A). Secondly, Dennis says N for nothing. Andrea puts up a $3,500 G before buying all the other vowels, and we have...
I / _ O U _ _ / G E T
U S E _ / T O / T _ I S
I COULD GET USED TO THIS -- she just won $2,500 and the $5K hotwire.com trip to the Beacon Hotel in MIAMI, totaling $7,500 that round.
