John solves LONDON BROIL.
Round 1: Character
John spins the Wheel for first in the worst way, landing on Bankrupt ($900/$2500).
Montana also has a terrible start, also hitting Bankrupt (right edge of the MDW).
Susi starts in a better way, hitting $700. She finds 2 S's and buys 2 E's. After that, she lands on $700 and puts 3 N's in the puzzleboard. Now, she buys 3 A's and 3 O's and finds 1 I in Free Play, the last vowel in the puzzle. Her next spin is for $600, finding 3 R's. She hits Free Play again and finds 1 M there, and shortly after she plays $600 with 3 T's. She repeats amount in $600 with 1 G and then she finds a single L in $650.

Round 2 (Mystery Round): Same Letter
Montana starts the round on $600 with 2 N's and 3 S's more in $650. However, after buying 4 E's, she can't continue her turn after calling a bad D in a Mystery Wedge ($700/$650).
Susi lands on $550 and finds 2 R's. She clears the vowels buying 1 I, 2 A's and 1 O. However, she duds with L in $650.
John starts picking up a ½ Car ($650/$900). He continues with a great spin landing on the Las Vegas trip. He picks it up with 3 T's (the trip is worth $6,000), and just after that hits $800 calling 3 T's, which is the Same Letter that gives him $1,000 more. He lands on Free Play calling 1 F and in the following spin he hits a Mystery Wedge (Free Play/Lose a Turn). He finds 1 C, and even having a big score, he decides to flip it... A bad decision, having into account that he finds a Bankrupt in the back.
Montana hits $600 finding 1 Y, and she calls 1 G, the last consonant, in the remaining ½ Car ($550/$600).
