I had it with RSTLNE. Many contestants probably would've mumbled "something SEAT" for most or all of the countdown. Well deserved of the $45K.
Great job to Nicole!
Anyways, sorry to see that Weatherly wasn't able to hold on to the MDW. But on the other hand, good to see another big round, for Nicole this time! Good to see that everyone has at least 10 grand at this point, too.
