LMaD: Several familiar deals are making their first appearance in Season 3 today. Here's one of them- the One-Roll Dice Deal.

Michelle (dressed as a yellow high school graduate who literally graduated last year) is about to play for a $13,471 four-night trip to the Beau-Rivage Palace & a two-night stay at the Baur Au Lac in Switzerland (Curtain #3). In this game, there are the titles of five current CBS TV shows- "Two and a Half Men", "Survivor", "NCIS", "The Amazing Race" & "Big Brother". If she can pick two that premiered in the same year & can go all the way, she'll likely go to Switzerland. Her choices are two of the three reality GSs on the board, "Survivor" & "Big Brother". That doesn't sound too good to me...& even her, so she scrams w/ a Mon Cheri sapphire tennis bracelet valued at $2,577.

WoF: In the near future, there will be new Arab versions of this program & "Jeopardy!"! Tonight's first American Toss-Up puzzle category is Fun & Games:

R O L _ _ R

D _ _ _ _

Colleen's NOT a ROLLER DERBY queen, but she's already $1K happier than she was before. Let's get to know her better, as well as her competition:

Colleen Sacco (Statesboro, GA)- A pharmacy school student married to Trent for 2.5 years
Brad French (San Diego)- An S.W.C.C. SWAT team member married to Grace
Courtney Leigh (Spring Hill, TN)- A Nashville hairstylist married to Aaron

The $2K TU prompt's Place:

_ _ _ _ _ S S _ O N

_ T _ N D

Courtney steals $2K from the designated CONCESSION STAND.

The first Fun & Fit-themed trip of the week's to the Tanque Verde Ranch worth $6,560 & the Wednesday/Friday gift tag will come from Dick's; category of the IHOP Jackpot Round's Fictional Character. Courtney starts off the puzzle w/ a $500 T, three E's & an A, then she calls two I's for a grand & the blue 1/2 KIA, buys the other vowels (an I, three O's & a U) & calls for three H's for another $900, but she then Bankrupts out next to the $2.5K space to lose her 1/2 KIA & $1,150. Following that moment, Colleen calls three L's for the Million Dollar Wedge, two C's for that $1K house minimum, a $300 M & we have...

M _ T H O L O _ I C A L

H E R O / H E R C U L E _

...she identifies the MYTHOLOGICAL HERO HERCULES to take a $300 lead, but she's starting the next round of play.

SOLE BANKRUPT: Courtney
LEFT BEHIND IN JACKPOT: $7,100

It's time for another Mystery Same Letter Round, w/ her starting w/ the call of a $400 S, the purchase of three E's, the Free Play of three A's & her subsequent calls of three T's for another $900 but then D for dud. Brad secondly calls another dud in N. Third, Courtney calls for the SL of five B's while on the Mystery Wedge next to the former MDW. She decides not to take the double or nothing chance (she should have, because the $10K was on the back) & then purchases the other vowels (an I, four U's & three O's), followed by this...

B E A U T I _ U _

B A B _ ' S

B _ E A T _

B O U _ U E T

...she's incorrect w/ BEAUTIFUL BABY'S BEAUTY BOUQUET (that was my guess, too), so maybe it's a blessing in disguise she likely missed out on $4,250 instead of at least five figures. That gives Colleen a break, but she fails miserably in capitalizing by hitting the other Bankrupt, so goodbye MDW & $1,050. Brad then gets the $1K steal & control on BEAUTIFUL BABY'S BREATH BOUQUET.

DUDS: $800 D (Colleen), $500 N (Brad)
SOLE BANKRUPT: Colleen
SOLE DQ: Courtney (missolve)

Food & Drink is the topic of the Prize Puzzle Round. He leads off w/ double N's for six bills, three E's, an A, trip P's to add $1,050, an I & a $300 L, but he then purchases the sole dud vowel on the board (O). Courtney's next opportunity begins w/ a $350 R & the two leftover U's, but she then bobbles the P. Afterwards, Colleen lights up a couple C's good for $1,800, a $300 T, a $500 F for the other 1/2 KIA, two H's for another thou & we get...

F R E _ H - C U T

P I N E A P P L E

C H U N _ _

...she eats some FRESH-CUT PINEAPPLE CHUNKS for another $3,600 & the trip to Outrigger Waikiki valued at $6,345, for a new leading haul of $12,245 in cash & trip.

We close out the TUs w/ one that calls for a Song Title:

W _ / _ _ E / _ H E

Colleen gets Queen's "WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS" fairly quickly to move to $15,245 in cash & vacation.

Phrase is tonight's Last Chance Round category & the consonants all pay...$1,600 per appearance. After two Y's come out of Brad's mouth...

_ _ _ P / Y _ _ R / _ Y _

_ N / T _ E / B _ L L

...he reminds us to "KEEP YOUR EYE ON THE BALL" to earn 6,400 more bucks & leave w/ 7,400 of them in total. Courtney leaves w/ $2K & Colleen's the winnah w/ $15,245 in cash & trip.

Tom's in the lead at the timeout w/ $3,600, followed by Jay w/ $2K & Charles w/ $1,600; Jay went Daily Double Hunting starting in the middle of The Reconstruction Era just before the break...but Tom doesn't take too long finding one himself at the end of the same topic w/ $4,400 & Lock Game Territory; Charles' added $200 to his first-half total & Jay's dropped to $1,400. Tom wagers three G's on this answer:

Charles Sumner & Thaddeus Stevens were leaders of this "extreme" Republican group.

"Who are the Radical Republicans?"...sure they were to lift him up to $7,400! But even w/ $8,400, he's NOT in LGT anymore for now, since Jay's up to $4,800; Charles begins Double Jeopardy! w/ a couple thousand fake dollars.

An institute of physical sciences at the University of Copenhagen's named for this physicist.

"Who is (Niels) Bohr?"...yes to bring him to $6,800. He's successful at spotting the other one this round two turns later behind the $1,600 Bad Heir Day answer & goes for yet another $2K:

June 28, 1914 was the last day for this heir to a European throne.

"Who is Arch Duke Ferdiand?"...he left out the Franz part in the name, but his response's deemed acceptable, so $8,800's his new score.
