What comes up first in the Toss-Up department? Why, it's a Person:
B _ _
S P _ N _ E R
Lou's a BIG SPENDER according to this solve; BTW, he's wearing a Santa Claus-like beard! Let's get to know him & his opposition more:
Lou Pell (Bellevue, NE)- A civilian computer operator in the U.S. Air Force & former 26-year-member married to Mary for a quarter of a century (he retired in '08)
Mallory Jilot (De Pere, WI)- An insurance agent married to Steve & has two funny dogs
Abby Arumbulo (L.A.)- An occupational therapist married to Jay & expecting their first child; her signature accessory category's big purses
The $2K T-U theme's Around the House:
_ A N D _ _ A P E
P A I N _ _ _ G
Lou picks up another two thou from a LANDSCAPE PAINTING.
Wednesday night's featured trip's to The Brazilian Court Hotel & Beach Club in Palm Beach, FL worth $5K & the category of the NatuRelief Jackpot Round board's Fun & Games. First, he calls a $2.5K T, buys four E's but then Bankrupts next to said top dollar wedge to lose the remaining $2,250. Second, Mallory calls out $1K worth of two H's but then loses her turn by buying a dud vowel of O. Third, Abby hits the Million Dollar Wedge's left-side Bankrupt, so Lou regains control & next gets the GourmetGiftBaskets.com gift tag w/ an R but then calls a dud in S while on the blue 1/2 KIA. Mallory next calls for the $600 D at the end of the third word & buys an A for both the first & third lines before Free Playing an I to finish off the vowels & getting up there an $800 L & an N for the Florida retreat. After she duds out w/ an M call, Abby takes the two G's for $1K, a $900 F & two C's for another $300 apiece before Bankrupting next to $2.5K; that will cost her exactly that amount this time. Lou follows suit w/ a $500 W...
W A _ I N G / T H E
C H E C _ E R E D
F L A G
...& he keeps it & the gift certificate by WAVING THE CHECKERED FLAG, meaning he's at the $4.5K mark.
DUDS: $300 M (Mallory), O (Mallory), $500 S (Lou)
BANKRUPTS: 3 (two by Abby, Lou)
LEFT BEHIND IN JACKPOT: $12,900
(Note: The holiday shout-out of the night comes from the production staff.)
This Quotation's the solution of tonight's Prize Puzzle Round. Mallory starts off w/ an instant dud of T. Second, Abby asks for two N's for $800, two D's to make that $2K, half a dozen A's & three O's, followed by a $450 R, a $300 S, an M for the Wild Card, an E, a $1,350 trio of K's but then the only negative vowel on the board (I) is bought by here. Lou's subsequently sees...
A _ _ / _ O R K
A N D / N O / _ _ A _
M A K E S / _ A _ K
A / D _ _ _ / _ O _
...& says "ALL WORK AND NO PLAY MAKES JACK A DULL BOY" exactly right for the secret trip to the Sooke Harbour House in Vancouver, BC valued at $7,700, so his maingame haul's up to $12,200 in cash & stuff.
DUDS: I (Abby), $500 T (Mallory)
TONIGHT'S SPIN ID: RS9627782 (Randall S.)
(Note: We have another shout-out from the camera/audio crew.)
Abby's had two late round fails in a row, but maybe she can break the ice in the Mystery/Before & After Round. She Bankrupts on the MDW's left side for the second time this episode, so there goes the WC; that's her third Bankrupt overall. Lou secondly lights up three S's for nine bills, a couple O's, a $1,200 set of N's, a pair of I's at the top, the $400 G at the end of the opening word, a $1,650 trio of T's & an $1,100 L before he tries to hopefully solve what's up there...
S I T T I N G / O N

O _ / L _ _ _ _ _
...after we've been SITTING ON SANTA'S LAP OF LUXURY, he's $4,750 happier & is $50 shy of $17K in winnings to this point.
SOLE BANKRUPT: Abby
Wheel Deals! Wednesday Offer of the Week: greatBIGcanvas hand-crafted wall art for $45 instead of $127; use the SonyCard & two bucks more are taken off
It's Rhyme Time on the $3K T-U:
N _ C E
_ R I _ E
Mallory is right in saying $3K's a NICE PRICE.
There's a Phrase in the Last Chance Round w/ the consonant value determined to be...$1.5K per appearance. After two H's from Lou...
T H _ / _ _ _ _ _ / _ _
T H _ / _ _ _ _
...he may be about to face THE PRICE OF FAME for being way off the mark there. But he gets another shot after confidently calling the two C's...
T H _ / C R _ _ M / _ _
T H _ / C R _ _
...& he proves he's THE CREAM OF THE CROP as far as this night's concerned w/ $22,950 in cash & prizes! Mallory has the $3K in TU cash & Abby has the $1K consolation.
That makes tonight's maingame total $26,950.
DUDS: G (Abby), L (Mallory), N (Mallory), S (Lou)
SOLE DQ OF THE MATCH: Lou (missolve)
TONIGHT'S BANKRUPT TRASH (excluding WC): $4,750
Maxwell House Big Money Round #68: Lou lifts the envelope from the single-star position & he's got half the letters in this Thing to begin already:

He calls BKMO no sweat...

...& gathers a BUS TOKEN redeemable for...
...$45K in Christmas cash! He's riding out w/ $67,950 in cash & stuff & the Rebuilding Together bank's reached $180K!
