Alanya Bankrupts on the MDW right away, and it's all Ken afterward. His first spin lands the Kia tag over the blue $500, which he gets with N. Two spins later, he gets the other one with a T. He keeps going until he solves DASHING THROUGH THE SNOW (from "Jingle Bells", of course) both $5,550 and the Kia!
Bankrupt: Alanya (first spin)
Left behind in Jackpot: $8,000
R: $3,000
Y: $20,550
B:
After Round 1, the Marketing department wishes viewers a happy holidays.

No one else will be getting a Kia, but let's get some more big numbers.

C R E A M
Ken's first spin gets the Ricardo tag, but there's no T to award it to him. Linda does some work but is stopped by a G. Alanya then hits the MDW on her second spin, getting it with M, only to lose it and $50 to Bankrupt one spin later. Once again in control, Ken calls S, but duds again with F. Linda solves WRINKLE AND SOUR CREAM for the $3,100 she accumulated earlier in the round.
Duds: T (Ken), G (Linda), F (Ken again)
Bankrupt: Alanya ($50 + MDW)
R: $3,000
Y: $20,550
B: $3,100

Linda gets us going, but amazingly there's no T up there. Alanya takes the Wheel, working up to $2,400 before losing it all on black. Ken racks up $4,400 before solving MY FRIENDS WILL ALL BE SO JEALOUS, which awards him a trip to Miami Beach (Gansevoort) worth $5,000!

Bankrupt: Alanya ($2,400)

Round 4 starts as a Speed-Up worth $1,800.

Somehow, Linda solves JUMPING ON A TRAMPOLINE for $1,800.
PERFECT ROUND!
End totals:
R: $3,000

$100,000 Bonus Round[/u]
It's already been a big night for Ken. Can he add to his many winnings?
He lands on the N in WIN, and he has People:
_ E _
S _ _ _ _
D, G, H and A give him…
_ E _
S _ _ A D
He's completely silent the whole time, unable to guess PEP SQUAD. So the Volkswagen Eos goes unclaimed for the second day in a row.

But it didn't stand a chance anyway. And again with "AND"...
(How was that a perfect round? Mislabel?)
And they could have showed more sympathy for the MDW loss, but at least no fake groans were used in tonight's BR...
