EPISODE #5657 - SPA GETAWAY[/u]
Intro Flashback Clip (1999): From an Endless Summer Week, Pat and Vanna ask each other what they normally wear.
Tonight, Pat's monitor shows that round logo instead of the two-row one from last night.
$1,000 Tossup - THING

Mattie solves MASSAGE TABLE. Once again, we're interviewing a lady in the middle first...
Mattie Jefferson: rural transportation worker from Moncks Corner, SC
Tony Morris: intuitive counselor from Palm Springs, CA (orig. from Enterprise, AL)
Nicole Penrod: part time P.E. teacher from San Dimas, CA
$2,000 Tossup - SHOW BIZ

Tony gets SOLD-OUT CONCERT to spin first.
FEATURED SPA TRIP: El Conquistador Resort in Puerto Rico worth $6,700 (all of these spa trips are provided by Spa Finder Wellness unless otherwise noted)
Jackpot Round - WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
Tony first gets the -ING ending out of the way and purchases three O's, but he then BANKRUPTS in between $900 and $650 to forfeit $2,700. Second in line, Nicole gets an $1,800 start courtesy of two T's and purchases a solitary A, but after a "null" cycle is the MDW's left-side BANKRUPT to toss aside $1,550. Third, Mattie spots four S's on that $650 space, buys the remaining E and takes that P.R. trip w/ two L's. We now have...
T O S S I N G
_ O I N S / I N T O / A
_ I S _ I N G / _ E L L
...her TOSSING COINS INTO A WISHING WELL for $10,050 cash and P.R.

UNCLAIMED JACKPOT: $8,050
Pre-Round 2 Scores
Nicole: $0
Mattie: $11,050 cash and P.R.

========
Mystery Round - SAME LETTER
Nicole's off and running in this round w/ a $2,700 R triplet. Two aired spins after that (Because another "null" cycle happened just before the following...), she puts up a $3,500 S and the SL of four C's (good for $2,200)...
C R E _ _
C _ E E S E
C _ R R _ T
C _ _ E
...before taking a bite of some CREAM CHEESE CARROT CAKE for $8,700 (if she had saved the SL for $3,500, she would have been in the lead w/ at least $17K).
FIRST *TECHNICAL* PERFECT ROUND OF THE SEASON!
Pre-Round 3 Scores
Nicole: $8,700
Mattie: $11,050 cash and P.R.
Tony: $2K
Bonus Puzzle Flashback (1989): THING

She failed to solve MOLECULE.
========
PRIZE PUZZLE Round - SONG LYRICS
Early on, Mattie calls twin T's for the first MDW pick-up of the season. Her next consonant call of S gives her the 1/2 car between $350 and $900. But after buying three U's, she misses w/ the J. Second, Tony gets that Wild Card + $1,500 w/ three Y's. Towards the end, he squanders his turn w/ the F, allowing Nicole...
Y O U / M U S T / B E
M Y / _ U _ _ Y / S T A R
...to solve Madonna's "YOU MUST BE MY LUCKY STAR" for a $6,045 trip to LAS VEGAS sponsored by the Blu-Ray re-release of "Titanic" (includes a visit to "Titanic: The Artifact Exhibition").
(NOTE: I believe a THIRD null cycle was edited out at the start of this round; everybody probably went BANKRUPT that time.)
AIRED DUDS: J (Mattie), F (Tony)
Pre-Tossup #3 Scores
Nicole: $14,745 cash and Vegas
Mattie: $11,050 cash and P.R.

$5K SPIN ID: BB0028089
FUN FACT: The Bonus Round puzzle was initially used on April 3, 2012. Pat mistakenly said that Aysha's guess of EXACTLY ALIVE was right, then the puzzle was thrown out.
