Another episode is ready!
For the last puzzle of Episode 16, I had my symbols flip-flopped. The answer was indeed "Rama Lama Ding Dong", but I put the ram where the lamb should be and vice versa. In a sense, I rammed when I should have lambed. Jake still got it, but I have decided not to count the loss against Nels in the interest of fairness. He will still have two chances to defeat Jake.
With that out of the way, I need a standby contestant just in case Nels wins the opening game.

Debra Wilson: The NBC television network proudly presents...
And now, please welcome our star, Kevin Kolsen!
Me: Hello! Good day to everyone! So glad you could join us again for another show of Concentration. If you have an eye for detail and a good grasp of words, this is the show for you. Let's meet someone who's been really good at that over the past few episodes.
His name is Jake, and he's won $171,859 cash and prizes!
*cheers and applause*
Have you decided with what to do with it all, Jake?

One of you sure will. It will either be you or Nels. Now, Nels, you're going to have an extra chance to defeat Jake. That's because we made a boo-boo on our last puzzle. We had symbols that didn't quite match the solution, so we're not counting that last game against you. How does that feel?

That’s wonderful. You’ll get your first chance at redemption soon. For now, we must take a short break while we load a puzzle on the board. Be back soon!

Which of the ten prizes on the board are we going to hear about today, Debra?
Debra: Making me hungry just thinking about it, ice cream and cake for a year! From Carvel, every week for 52 weeks, enjoy one quart of ice cream. Plus, to celebrate those special occasions, one sheet cake a month. All flavors and styles are customizable to your liking so you can get the most out of your desserts. Carvel: the original neighborhood ice cream shoppe where all our sweet treats are homemade for that classic taste: $1,223!
Me: You didn't drool on that prize copy, I hope, Debra.
Debra: Are you sure you don't want any napkins, Kevin?
Me: Quite.
Jake, you're the champ. Who's picking first?

Eleven...
![]() Wild Card! The tennis equipment is automatically yours!
Maybe invite Jake for some lobs, since he passed control to you. Where was the natural match?
To its left, number six. Nels, we'll open up three doors.
Would you like to guess?

You asked for 5 first. That hides...
...an iPad. We'll reveal 15 next.
That's a Silver Take. No match there. Spin those back to the numbers.
Jake, what's your first selection?

Ah, of course. Let's see 15...
And there's the Silver Take! This card is as good as yours!
Nels only has the tennis equipment. Just say the word, and we'll move it to your side of the board. Otherwise, you can hold onto it.

Your move. You could take that or something else he'll match later on. The other Silver Take was behind...
26, the lower left corner. Jake, you'll have your first crack at the puzzle after we reveal another three squares.

No, some sunglasses. Let's cover those back up.
