DOUBLE OR 1/2 FREE LETTER $500SOLVE Hey, it's the Free Letter Wedge! What's good about this wedge is that you don't have to call any letter. In fact, we're going to give you a Free Letter that's in the puzzle at $500 each. Let's see what the letter is, and how many...  (ding) 1 N, and you get $500 for free for that. Spin, buy or solve? |

Might as well. We only have 1 U, though.  (ding) With all vowels gone, it's spin or solve time, Matt. |

There is an F, and Billy, you know what this means...  (ding) $29,350 has just been handed over to you, Matt. You now have $29,950. If there was a good time to solve the puzzle and avoid those BANKRUPTs, this would be it. However, if you don't know it, you're going to have to spin. |

(Buzzer)(audience groans) That is incorrect. Is the Exclamation Mark really necessary? In fact, do you see that in the puzzle? Matt, a chance at redemption! Spin or solve?

And Matt's got it!  (audience cheers) Matt and Billy, you both had me going for a second there. I should remind you that in the Golden Rule of Solving, the solution must be BOLD and CAPITALIZED. I can let you get away with punctuation marks during the Toss-Up Puzzles, but not in Main Puzzles like this one. So Matt, I bet you're feeling a LOT better now that you got some money in the bank, and a BIG thanks to the POWER wedge, which has indeed proven to be a big game-changer. And now, Matt. You have a BIG decision to make. First, you can spin our slot machine, in which for this 3rd round, we have...  Wheel Of Fortune: Ultra 5 Reels, where you can win BIG with one lucky pull... Disco Fries
House of Hoops
Jared: The Galleria of Jewelry
Macy's
Things Remembered...or you can go shopping to one of these 5 remaining stores, in which the Shopper's Special is still out there somewhere... ...OR, you can play our Big Money mini-game, "Money In the Bank".  There are 5 Safes. 2 of them will make you go BANKRUPT, 1 will LOSE 1/2 of your money, 1 will DOUBLE your winnings, and 1 will QUINTUPLE your winnings. Now, the $29,950 will be at risk if you play Money In the Bank, but if you spin our slot machine, or go shopping, the $29,950 will NOT be at risk. So what are you going to do, Matt? |

Alright! Load up the paytable!    And let's load up the Slot Machine!  The Coin Value is $200, and the money won here only counts as a bonus. Ready, GO! (Slot Machine pulls up) (Machine voice: WE HAVE A WINNER!)               Out of the 40 paylines on this machine, 14 of them are winners with Lucky 7's at $1,000 each, so that's $14,000 in bonus cash! That does not go toward your overall score, but look at this as we end the dramatic Big Money/Express Round...  Matt has come from behind and has taken the lead at $29,950 while Billy now falls into second place at $25,309. And by the way, the Shopper's Special was hidden at Things Remembered. We got ourselves a game now, but when we come back, it's all coming down to our final round where one of these players will become our champion and advance on to our Bonus Round. Who's it going to be? Find out after these words! |

DK: That's what we're looking for.  (Play between 00:00 to 00:03) And that $3,000 takes you closer to Matt. In fact...  The difference between these 2 players is $1,641. And incidentally, the Vault from our last show was worth $35,100, and tonight, the BANKRUPTs have done it again as they have stolen another $12,600 from our earlier rounds, bringing the Vault up to... VAULT VALUE: $47,700$47,700! (audience applause) And unfortunately, that Vault won't be available for tonight because we only 2 players left in the game, which also means what, ghosties? Blinky: Whenever there are less than 3 players left in the game heading into Round 4, that round automatically becomes...  Pinky: The Mach 7...  Inky: Rapid Fire...  Clyde: Ultimate...  Ai, Tinky & Sue: LIGHTNING ROUND!!!  DK: That's right, guys! It's the Lightning Round, where this is the last round of the game that will definitely determine our winner since the scores are so close! First of all, let's take a look at the wheel! BANKRUPT $6000 $550 $950 $500 $3525 LOSE A TURN $2900 $575 $7500 $700 $1500 BANKRUPT $725 $4470 $800 $900 $10000 $750 SOLVE $650 LOSE A TURN $4750 $600 And there it is, with more 4-digit values on the wheel, but there's one that's our top dollar amount of $10,000! (audience cheers) And now, it's time for me to give the wheel one Final Spin... (DK spins the wheel) ...and I'm going to ask you to give me a letter, and if it's in the puzzle, you'll then have 24 hours to solve it. Vowels are worth nothing, but consonants are going to be worth... $1500 BANKRUPT$725  We can't have that. Let's try that again... (DK spins the wheel again) Maybe we'll do better this time... ...maybe we'll do MUCH better this time... (audience oohs as $10,000 approaches) $10000 $750SOLVE  (audience groans loudly) Oh, so close! Almost had it! That's ok, that's ok, though. We'll add $1,000 to it since it's under the $4,000 barrier, meaning that each consonant will be worth $1,750 on this puzzle...  ...in which the category is Food & Drink, and with the scores being so close, that means that anybody can win! Billy, we start with you. Let's have a letter, please. |
