Tom guesses HATCHET and RACKET, but is unable to come up with JACKPOT (ironic!) and loses the blue BMW (the one he wanted). His one-day total is $17,050 and he will be back on Friday for the Friday Finals!
According to the credits, the Surprise Jennifer missed out on was a trip to the Sanibel Harbour Resort and Spa in Ft. Myers, FL.
To whoever puts this on the recap directory, BTW, you may want to mention the fact that one of our contestants is the spouse of a previous one.
