I Need a Vacation! (Day 4)
Remember the Kellie/Nicole/Kate matchup on 4/6/07? Well, we're on that "Fantasy Islands" set for this extra episode.
Toss-Up 1: Thing
_ A B Y / _ _ _ _ D
_ _ _ N _
This has nothing to do with vacations, but a lady named Dar nails BABY GRAND PIANO anyway. Let's meet the players this Thursday night...
Dar Nelson: A communications analyst for the state of Oregon who has 2 kids and 8 grandkids and likes to play softball and sing professionally; she's from Salem, OR
Jack Kanever: A Cal Poly San Luis Obispo (he mentions he goes to school in that town) student studying art and design who plans to do some advertising; in his free time he likes to bowl, paint, and snowboards; he's from Cour d'Alene, ID
La Kisha Summerson: An IT manager at a major corporation who decorates cakes for fun; she's from Durham, NC
Toss-Up 2: Event
S W _ E _ / S _ X _ _ E N
_ A R T Y
How appropriate for La Kisha - this event has cakes and she recalls her SWEET SIXTEEN PARTY, so she's definitely spinning first.
Vacation on the Wheel: Renaissance Hotel in Las Vegas, $5,500
$10,000 Round: Before & after
La Kisha instantly nabs that $10K wedge with 3 R's and $1,800 with 2 T's. After buying triple E's, she picks up the Vegas trip with an S. She next purchases 2 O's and lands on $600, on which she gets 2 M's. After clearing out the vowels with an A trio...
_ A R A T E
M A S T E R
_ E _ R O O M
...she can go to her new KARATE MASTER BEDROOM, because in that small amount of time, she's just won $2,250, the $10,000 wedge, and the Vegas trip, totaling $17,750 cash and trip that round alone!
BIG DOMINATION!
Jack: Hasn't spun yet
La Kisha: $19,750 cash and Vegas
Dar: $1,000 Toss-Up money
ActivOn Jackpot Round: Food & drink (PRIZE PUZZLE)
Trying to catch up to La Kisha, Dar lights up 2 S's on $900, then buys a whopping FIVE E's and an O. She next finds a C trio on $450 and purchases 2 I's and 3 A's. Her next spin lands her on the Jackpot, and she gets 3 H's...
C H E E S E
E _ C H _ _ A _ A
_ I _ H / S O _ _
C _ E A _
...and a $6,850 Jackpot - set off those fireworks! In addition to the Jackpot, she's earned $3,650...and a trip of her own to RIVIERA MAYA, MEXICO worth $6,580! She's earned $17,080 cash and trip that round alone and is now $1,670 away from La Kisha's lead!
TRIP ID: 5E0005456
BIG DOMINATION #2!
Jack: $0, but he's spinning next
La Kisha: $19,750 cash and Vegas
Dar: $18,080 cash and Mexico
In just a few short minutes, Pat mentions, we've already given away almost $38K cash and trips! That's what I like to see!
Mystery Round: Song lyrics
Jack finally gets his shot, but a dud of T on the Wild Card won't help him out at all. La Kisha picks up the Gift Tag (I couldn't see or hear what it was) with 3 S's and $1,200 with 2 R's. After buying a whopping SIX E's (no surprise, it's a big puzzle), she Bankrupts to give up $1,950 cash and gift tag. Dar lights up a $900 N, and the audience is really excited about it...but they have real AWs when she hits LaT. Jack gets 4 D's on $900 and an S on $550. After buying an I trio, he lights up the two L's on $300...
S I _ N E D
S E _ L E D
D E L I _ E R E D
I ' _ / _ _ _ R S
...and he IDs the Stevie Wonder tune "SIGNED, SEALED, DELIVERED, I'M YOURS" for his first $4,500!
Wrong Letter: T (Jack)
Bankrupt: La Kisha
Lose a Turn: Dar
Jack: $4,500
La Kisha: $19,750
Dar: $18,080
Toss-Up 3: Person
S P E E _ -
R _ A D E R
Jack is not so sure about this, but he's right with SPEED READER, so he's at $7,500 now.
Round 4: On the map
Jack hits Lose a Turn instantly. La Kisha starts out with an R trio on $300, but misses with S on $500. Dar finds 2 N's on $450 and three O's before lighting up three T's on $800 (Pat asked her to repeat that letter). And she's about to say "YES!!!" after solving this puzzle...
_ _ _ R _ O T T _
N O R T _ / _ _ R O _ _ N _
...but definitely not La Kisha - Dar gets CHARLOTTE, NORTH CAROLINA for another $3,050 and the lead.
Wrong Letter: S (La Kisha)
Lose a Turn: Jack
Jack: $7,500
La Kisha: $19,750
Dar: $21,130
Round 5: Around the house
La Kisha starts this round off with 2 T's on $500 and 2 R's on $300. After buying 2 I's, she gets an $800 D (I thought she said V), an A, and an E. She calls a W for $300...but then a CRITICAL DUD of O slips out of her mouth, so she likely threw away $1,700 and the victory. And Dar tries to spin, but there won't be a Round 6, because it's Final Spin time...
_ T I _ I T _
D R A W E R
...and consonants are worth $1,350. Dar next calls the L...
_ T I L I T _
D R A W E R
...and La Kisha sure did squander the title - Dar seals the deal with UTILITY DRAWER.
Wrong Letter (before Final Spin): O (La Kisha; wonder where she thought it would go? )
Jack: $7,500
La Kisha: $19,750 cash and Vegas
Dar: $22,480 cash and Mexico
Maingame Winnings: A respectable $49,730!
Bankrupt Trash: $1,950 cash and gift tag (all from R3)
Bonus Round: Person
After surviving a tight match between herself and La Kisha, Dar lands on the N in BONUS. If she gets this puzzle, she might drive home in a BMW Z4 Convertible or a Chrysler Aspen.
RSTLNE give limited help:
T R _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _
She's going with C, J (wha?), G, and A...
T R _ _ _ A
_ _ _ _
...but it doesn't help much. She doesn't get TRIVIA BUFF for another $30,000, but still leaves with $22,480 cash and Mexico.
