Round 1 ($1,000 and the SURPRISE added) - PHRASE
IN THE BLINK OF AN EYE solved by Edward for $2,200.
Gameplay Notes:
*Nita immediately picked up the Free Spin with one T. She later missed with an R and used it to redeem herself, but immediately missed with an S
*Kent hit LOSE A TURN.
Scores so far:
Nita: $0
Kent: $0
Edward: $2,200
Pre-Round 2 Prize on the Wheel: bronze eagle sculpture worth $4,000 (likely marked "ART" on the Wheel)
Round 2 ($2,500) - QUPTATION
WHEN YOU CARE ENOUGH TO SEND THE VERY BEST solved by Edward for $2,700.
Gameplay Notes:
*Kent picked up the sculpture with a pair of R's. After doing a bunch of work, he lost that and $7,300 to a BANKRUPT. Ouch.
Scores so far:
Nita: $0
Kent: $0
Edward: $4,900
Round 3 ($3,500 and the $10,000 wedge added) - THING
BIG SCREEN TELEVISION solved by Edward for $2,050.
Gameplay Notes:
*Nita picked up the SURPRISE with an R. She then cashed in $7,000 with a pair of N's, but then missed with an A to leave behind $6,750 and the SURPRISE.
(That's the second time tonight someone claimed a prize wedge and racked up a decent amount of money, only to be unable to win it!)

Nita: $0
Kent: $0
Edward: $6,950
Round 4 ($5,000) - OCCUPATION (also a speed-up round for $300 per consonant.
