This is Bobby McBride w/ the my other recap of the week. After the intro, I hear Pat use my Jimmy nickname for the second time! On the Map's the subject for this NYC-themed Toss-Up worth a thousand bucks:
T H _ / _ _ _ _ X
Monica gets THE BRONX. The Thanksgiving players are:
Monica Glenn (Irvine, CA)- An instructional assistant at Springbrook Elementary School & Salsa dancer married to William
Andrew Horton (Chicago)- A synthesizer player who's addicted to LEGOS & Godzilla movies, married to Sharon & has a cat named Squeemoo
Jamelie Kangles (Chattanooga, TN)- A Third, Fourth & Fifth-Grade Math coach who watches college football, goes to the lake & is engaged to Steven
There's a realistic shot that this $2K Food & Drink TU has something to do w/ today:
_ _ Z Z _ / B _
_ H _ / _ L _ _ E
I've got a funny feeling that most NYers have had PIZZA BY THE SLICE on Thanksgiving (maybe some Chicagoans, too); Andrew scores the money & control.
The NYC getaway of the night's to The Algonquin Hotel w/ tickets to "Anything Goes" worth $5,670 (& the gift tag for the evening comes from Ritz Camera & Image) & the ID of the FAMOUS footwear Jackpot Round puzzle's TV Title. This evening's male puzzle solver calls three H's for $1.5K & the green 1/2 KIA right out of the gate, buys two E's & A's, calls two S's for another $1K & makes the purchase of two O's & I's to clean out the vowel feast for at least this round, then he inserts four T's for the trip & three W's for $1,350 more & we have...
T H E
_ A I _ _ / S H O W
W I T H / _ O _
S T E W A _ T
...he might be seeing a taping of "THE DAILY SHOW WITH JON STEWART" in The Big Apple soon, because he's won the vacation to there & $2,850 in extra spending cash, for a new total of $10,520 in cash & trip.
PERFECT ROUND
FINAL TOTAL FOR TONIGHT'S JACKPOT LEFTOVERS: $6,450
At the start of the Mystery/Before & After Round w/ four words on this layout, Jamelie gets started w/ three S's for $1,800 but then a dud of T follows right after. Second, Monica calls two N's for $1K & the other 1/2 KIA, buys trios of E's & A's & lights two R's for the gift tag, followed by an I buy but then the Lose a Turn. Andrew then Bankrupts next to the Wild Card to give up his plate. Jamelie next buys the two O's, calls an $800 H & buys the other vowel of U prior to this board...
_ A _ I S O N
S _ U A R E
_ A R _ E N
H O S E
...& she solves MADISON SQUARE GARDEN HOSE to get on the board w/ $2,100.
SOLE DUD: $600 T (Jamelie)
SOLE LaT: Monica
SOLE BANKRUPT: Andrew
The Prize Puzzle Round's based on some Things. Monica's initial letters are a $300 D, a couple of A's & a dud of T. Andrew secondly Free Plays an E & I before the LaT bites him. Third, Jamelie calls for a set of N's for $1.5K & the green 1/2 KIA, buys the final vowel of O & lights a $3.5K L before dudding out w/ C. Next for Monica are three S's for the WC, a $450 R but then the Bankrupt on the right side of the Million Dollar Wedge to forfeit both. Back to Andrew, he has the two K's lit for $1,200...
S N O R K E L
_ A S K / A N D
_ I N S
...& he'll need to get out a SNORKEL MASK AND FINS (if he does have that), because he's also won himself a holiday to the Divi Little Bay Beach Resort in Dutch St. Maarten worth $5,875, for a new score in cash & trips of $17,595.
DUDS: $300 C (Jamelie), $800 T (Monica)
SOLE LaT: Andrew
SOLE BANKRUPT: Monica
TONIGHT'S SPIN ID: LL01447 (Linda L.)
This Living Thing's worth an additional $3K:
_ O C K _ R
S P A _ _ E L
Andrew says COCKER SPANIEL to rise even more to $20,595.
Next to be solved's an Occupation. After an instant $5K L, he buys an E, A & I, puts up two R's for another 10 biggies & buys three O's just before the Last Chance Mode bell sounds...
_ O _ S _ R _ _ _ I O _
_ O R E _ A _
...& $1,550 will be handed out for each of the remaining consonants. He then calls three N's...
_ O N S _ R _ _ _ I O N
_ O R E _ A N
...but blanks out, likely denying him an $18,650 pot. An F's called a few turns later...
_ O N S T R _ _ T I O N
F O R E _ A N
...by Monica & he solves CONSTRUCTION FOREMAN to leave w/ a total of $2,550. Jamelie still has her MR bank of $2,100 & Andrew wins handily w/ $20,595 in cash & travel!
The maingame total for the night's $25,245.
TONIGHT'S BANKRUPT TRASH (excluding extra stuff): $450
Maxwell House Big Money Round #44: Andrew's BMR envelope comes from that double-star (remember, both $100K losses this season to date have come from that space) & his prompt's Thing. Out of 11 letters, we get these to start:
_ _ _ _ R _ T E
_ _ _
He calls JKGA...
_ A _ _ R _ T E
_ _ G
...but he's still way off the mark w/ GARMENT BAG; his FAVORITE MUG would've been worth $50K. W/ that, he leaves w/ $20,595 in cash & trips.
T H _ / _ _ _ _ X

" Then I explain how Prize Puzzles work and why "that girl" solved with one letter that one time, because the value of the prize counts towards your score.
