I wanted to recap this one just because I find the category distribution very interesting. You'll see in a minute.
$1,000 Toss-Up: Around the House[/u]
S A T I _
_ A _ _ E _ S
Mollie's wrong with SATIN SHEETS.
S A T I N
H A _ G E R S
Tim's right with SATIN HANGERS.
Tim Sellers, CPA from Folsom, CA
Janice Jeffries, police officer from Chicago, IL
Mollie Stallmann, aspiring writer from Los Angeles, CA
$2,000 Toss-Up: Show Biz[/u]
_ _ V _
_ E V I _ _ S
Mollie gets RAVE REVIEWS for solving.
$10,000 Round: Things[/u]
Mollie does all the work this round.
_ _ R C _ _ _ I N
_ I G _ R I N _ S
She solves PORCELAIN FIGURINES for $2,250.
PERFECT ROUND![/color]
Wheel Prize: Atlantis Paradise Island, Bahamas, $6,355
Jackpot Round: Fictional Characters[/u]
Tim starts us off with M, and oddly enough, there is one. Next, he puts up the R's. His third spin hits the Trip, but there're no S.
Janice fills in the three T's at $450 each, then buys A and O. However, she gives back the remaining $550 to Bankrupt. Mollie gets to spin now, and she hits the Jackpot wedge! She calls the only remaining consonant, K…
M R . / R O A R K _ / &
T A T T O O
…and gets the $6,250 Jackpot for solving MR. ROARKE & TATTOO!
Dud: S (Tim)
Bankrupt: Janice
Janice:
Mollie: $10,500
Tim: $1,000
====
Mystery Prize: Kia Rio, $9,745
Mystery Round: Before & After[/u]
Janice's first call of S isn't up there, neither is Mollie's T. Tim tried M in the last round, and it works again in this round. He does some more work, until Bankrupt takes away his $1,650.
Back to Janice, who puts up the N's and R's. After buying O, she lands on the Mystery Wedge between $300 and $800. She calls P, and declines to turn it over. Instead, she buys I's. A few spins later, she Bankrupts away her $1,800.
Mollie tries B and C at $600 each, but Bankrupt number three takes it right back. Tim decides to spin for that last letter, which nets him a mere $300 for the D…
B E C O M I N G / A
R O L E / M O D E L
A I R P L A N E
…so he reads off BECOMING A ROLE MODEL AIRPLANE to get that $300 bumped up to the house minimum.
Dud: S (Janice), T (Mollie)
Bankrupt: everyone
Janice:
Mollie: $10,500
Tim: $1,500
====
$3,000 Toss-Up: Around the House[/u] (again)
_ _ I L _ _ G
F A _
Mollie says CEILING FAN.
Round 4: Phrase[/u]
Mollie puts up the L's first. Her next spin hits the BodyGlove gift tag, but there's no D. Tim tries M yet again, then does some more work.
_ E ' _ E / C _ M E
F _ L L / C _ _ C L E
With $3,100, he solves WE'VE COME FULL CIRCLE.
Dud: D (Mollie)
Round 5: Thing[/u] (again)
Tim starts us off with T, just as the bells ring.
_ _ _ T _ _
_ _ _ _ _ T _ _
The Final Spin is $6,000!
L _ _ T _ _
_ _ M _ _ T _ R
Mollie solves LAPTOP COMPUTER for another $6,000.
Dud: S (Tim), N (Mollie), both after Speed-Up
DQ: Janice's repeated S
Janice: $0->$500
Mollie: $19,500
Tim: $4,600
====
$100,000 Bonus Round[/u]
She lands on the C in CASH. The category is the third repeat of the night, Fictional Characters:
_ _ _ _ _ / &
_ _ _ E _
D, G, M, and A are her picks:
G _ M _ _ / &
_ _ _ E _
Not a lot of help, but she's able to figure out GUMBY & POKEY for another $25,000! That makes $44,500 overall.
