Somebody get Bill out of the greenhouse!
*laughter*
Or maybe we can put a train to the North Pole on the board instead. He did say he can't travel by car or boat anymore. In any event, show #14...

There's that match! We'd come full-circle if San Francisco was a point of interest in in Planes, Trains and Automobiles.
Two matches of prizes remain. The other two hide Wild Cards. Immanuel, take a look and see if you want to make a guess.

Is it ORANGE YOU GLAD I DIDN'T SAY BANANA?
Yes! That was what we're looking for! Just that one little difference at the top left I have to explain. "Aren't" and "Orange" are not pronounced the same, and we needed the fruit. Immanuel, were you able to figure it out from that?

Yeah, I was a bit confused when you said Bill got it wrong, but I remembered the saying went "Orange" and not "Aren't"

Yes, it's how that particular joke ended. Debra, you get to play Santa Claus. Tell Immanuel what he's won!
Debra: Okay, my elf. Immanuel, you've won a chess set! History meets strategy in this Civil War-themed chess set. You and a friend can match wits the way soldiers and their commanders did by playing the Union against the Confederacy. 32 handcrafted pieces painted in Italy on a maple hardwood board using woods only found in Pennsylvania.
A car bed! Send a little one to dreamland in this Bromborough metal car bed. With durable metal accents and silver finishes, it gives the feeling of racing the international speedway in your very own bedroom. It also comes with a full-sized mattress for plenty of restful nights, plus two bookcases and doors with gas pump motifs.
A kayak! The Crystal Explorer Kayak offers a whole new view on a kayaking experience. Tackle any lake, river or sea on its crystal seats and corrosion-resistant body. It also comes with commercial grade carbon fiberglass deluxe paddles. Furnished by the Crystal Kayak Company.
You won't be going here in Santa's sleigh, but we'll still take you to San Francisco! You and a guest will fly round trip to San Francisco, where you'll enjoy a six-night stay at the Sheraton in Fisherman's Wharf, located just minutes away from the famous piers and Ghiradelli Square. Enjoy all the fabulous sites and the diversity of Chinatown in this bustling city. A cable car tour of the city is included.
You've also won a new car! A brand new 2023 Nissan Versa S! Compromise is not included with this stylish, fuel-efficient automobile. It comes with a 1.6-Liter four-valve engine, five-speed manual transmission, automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detector and lane-departure warning.
Those prizes worth $28,735 combined with the $2,500 cash jackpot gives you a grand total of $31,235! Congratulations!
Me: And that's just in one game's worth! We'll pause for some quick commercial messages, and then we'll wrap up. Be right back!
Note: Immanuel's presence is not necessary to finish this episode, but I cannot start the next one until he is ready to continue.

(Just posted in the vacay, fine for the most part, still sad though. My time on here is limited until further notice, so you can start!)

Yes, first to Immanuel, my heartfelt and deepest condolences to you young man. I truly hurt for you and with you during this difficult time. Second, my heartfelt congratulations on becoming the new champion here. May your reign be even more profitable than mine! Lastly to Immanuel I say, "Aren't you glad I didn't say ORANGE?"  Kevin, it's been a genuine pleasure and joy being here. You do a sensational job and playing this game that I've had an obsession with since age 3, it's been Heaven on Earth for me to play it, and for this long! Thank you! |

Well, when you've won so much, it's nice to have a good sense of humor about it. I'm beyond thrilled to be a part of that experience, too. Thank you as always for those kind words. We'll say so long on Concentration. See you next time!
Debra: This is Debra Wilson speaking for Concentration. Concentration has been a production of the NBC television network!
