Round 4: Living Things[/u]
Khalilah can't find a T, nor a buzzer for that matter. Joshua says L, B, U and then S, showing that he may have a hunch…

_ U B S
… as he soon solves POLAR BEAR CUBS for another $2,150.
Round 5: Person[/u]
Joshua starts off with T and R, then buys the dud E. Denise also gets a dud S, and Khalilah says M. She then gets the Gift Tag with L but doesn't pick it up right away. She tries to call a vowel until Pat points out the tag. After she picks it up, she changes her mind and spins again for M and D, then strikes out with G.
Joshua again, who picks off the last consonants (F, C and Y)…

_ _ N D _ _
D _ S _ L A _
But it's not enough for him to figure out WINDOW DISPLAY, so he loses a Land Rover Freelander.
