He'll avoid spinning the wheel second win or lose right now...good, because he only locks in $4,982 & he was one click off the right price of $9,149.

WoF: Wednesday's puzzles lead off w/ a $1K Toss-Up Phrase:

_ N _ O Y / T _ E

S H O _

Often seen at movie theaters just before feature presentation, Natalie solves ENJOY THE SHOW. And we're about to find out if any of these three players are about to go on a Great Escape:

Natalie Bakhoum (Redondo Beach, CA)- A local community college teacher who's training a sprint triathlon w/ her 14-year-old son
Jeff Schwab (Lorton, VA)- A director of marketing for a dental insurance company who's also the lead guitarist for a local rock band
Emily Lohorn (Chula Vista, CA)- An SDSU graduate student & local community college English tutor who's pursuing her Master's Degree in Children's Literature

The $2K T-U subject is Event:

_ _ _ _ _ N _

P R E _ _ N _ S

Before Emily can do any OPENING PRESENTS, she's stuffed two grand into her stocking (s).

MidNite Jackpot Round category's Fictional Place & out on the wheel this time, sponsored by the film "Midnight in Paris" (which was written by Woody Allen; it's available on DVD & Blu-Ray tomorrow), is a trip to said French city worth $7,530. Emily goes first & calls four T's for $1,600, buys an E, calls an $800 H to complete the opening word & buys three A's before calling a dud in W. Second, Natalie calls out three S's for the Wild Card, three L's for $1,350 & buys the other two pairs of vowels (O's & I's), then she calls the $1K N pairing...

T H E / L O S T

I S L A N _ / O _

A T L A N T I S

...& solves THE LOST ISLAND OF ATLANTIS for the early lead w/ $2,850 & keeps control.

SOLE DUD: $500 W (Emily)
LEFT BEHIND IN JACKPOT: $7,650

(Note: Tonight's shout-out comes from the licensing/clearance department.)

First up in the Mystery/Before & After Round for her are a $400 T, two A's & four L's while on the Mystery Wedge in between Free Play & Lose a Turn for another $4K (but the $10K was back there), then she purchases two E's prior to Bankrupting out next to $3.5K to lose her WC & $3,900. Second, Jeff calls the Y at the beginning & end for $500 apiece, purchases three O's & we see...

Y O _ / _ A _ / _ E

A T / _ E L L O

_ O L L Y

...but he won't be getting that $250 vowel fee right back after saying "YOU HAD ME AT HELLO COLLY", which is a letter off. Following that missolve, Emily calls two H's for eight bills...

Y O _ / H A _ / _ E

A T / H E L L O

_ O L L Y

...& gets the $200 steal on "YOU HAD ME AT HELLO DOLLY", putting her in first place w/ three thou by $150.

SOLE BANKRUPT: Natalie
SOLE DQ: Jeff (blown solve)

Another Prize Puzzle Round asks What Are You Doing? Jeff's first letters are three N's for nine Benjamins, two I's, a $500 G at the end of the first word, an O, trip T's for another $1.5K, two A's & the same number of D's for an extra $800, followed by an E trio, a $900 R but then a dud of K; I think he may be about to be embarrassed based on the solution I'm about to reveal (no offense to him personally). Emily follows up w/ the calls of two L's for six bills & two S's to add a grand & FPs the leftover U...

L I S T E N I N G / T O

A / S T E E L / D R U _

_ A N D

...& she's LISTENING TO A STEEL DRUM BAND for a bigger lead w/ $1,600 more & a vacation at the SuperClubs Breezes Grand Resort & Spa worth $6,480, putting her at $11,080 in cash & Negril.

SOLE DUD: $900 R (Jeff)

TONIGHT'S SPIN ID: DS21849 (Deneen S.)

Wheel Deals! Wednesday Offer of the Week: David's Cookies products for $12 instead of $25; $10 if you use the SonyCard

Here are at least a couple of things Around the House that needs to be recognized for the final T-U:

_ _ B _ _ C L _ _ H

& / N _ P _ _ N _

Jeff picks up a TABLECLOTH & NAPKIN, but he's given his second incorrect response of the night because he left off the S, allowing Emily to take away the TABLECLOTH & NAPKINS to move to $14,080 in cash & trip.

Next is a Same Letter puzzle, starting w/ a $300 T, an O buy, a $350 S, an E purchase, a $300 R but then a dud I buy. Natalie secondly lights up nothing by calling N. While third in line this round, Jeff calls up $1K worth of back-to-back L's at the end of the first word & buys four A's to clean out the vowels prior to him calling the SL of quad B's for $1,200 more & us hearing the Last Chance Bell...

B A S _ E T B A L L

B A _ _ B O A R _

...w/ the remaining three consonants worth $1,300 per appearance. He next asks for the C...

B A S _ E T B A L L

B A C _ B O A R _

...& he avoids the gooseegg by solving BASKETBALL BACKBOARD for a $3,250 payday. Natalie has her $2,850 & Emily's the victor w/ $14,080 in cash & Jamaica.

$20,180 in cash & travel has been awarded on this Wednesday night so far.

DUDS (prior to final bell): I (Emily), $300 N (Natalie)

TONIGHT'S BANKRUPT TRASH (excluding WC): $3,900

Maxwell House Big Money Round #63: The E in GAME's landed on for the second time this week & Emily's BMR topic's Phrase. The RSTLNE lights:

_ _ _ E / _ E L _

_ _ T

HDMO gives her...

_ O M E / H E L _

O _ T

...it's too bad I couldn't COME HELP OUT, because she solves the puzzle a second too late & loses $30K. That sends her home w/ $14,080 in cash & trip.

J!: Jason Keller's next challengers:

Janemarie Cloutier (Langhorne, PA)- School librarian
Drew Tompkins (originally from Montgomery, AL)- Legal software consultant

Wednesday's Base Six:

THE ECONOMY
STATE CAPITAL FUN FESTS
GIVE 'EM A "HAND"
HIGHEST-RATED TV SERIES OF THE SEASON
5 DEGREES
OF SEPARATION

Once he's got $800, Jason hits the Daily Double under the same valued clue on State Capital Fun Fests; Janemarie has half his total. His $1K clue:

This city has been hosting its Golden North Salmon Derby since 1947, before it was officially a state capital.

"What is Juneau?"...correct for $1,800. He's still ahead of Janemarie $5,200-$3,400, while the Drew in the middle has $800.

SOLE TS OF THE ROUND (attempted): $400 (Economy)

Post-Jeopardy! Round Scores:

Jason: $8,600
Drew: $1,600
Janemarie: $6K

Lineup For Double Jeopardy!:

THE 21ST
CLASSIC CINEMA
LITERARY CROSSWORD CLUES "T"
PHYSICAL SCIENCE
PETS IN HISTORY
ELF-HELP

Jason immediately RUNS THE TABLE on Physical Science to be in Lock Game Territory w/ $14,600...but Janemarie's $1,200 piece of Elf-Help has a DD attached; she has $7,200 to Drew's $2K & Jason's $17,800. Her wager on this clue's $4K:

In a Grimm tale, elves made these for a merchant until his wife made them clothes; they never came back.

"What are shoes?"...she's back in reach of the lead w/ $11,200. And she finishes tonight's DDs w/ the $1,600 Classic Cinema spot & $13,200; Jason currently is $200 shy of the $20K mark & Drew's a respectable third place w/ $6,800. She puts $5K at risk:

Originally planned for Charles Laughton & Elsa Lanchester in the 1930s, it was later made w/ Bogart & Hepburn.

"What is 'The African Queen'?"...was the right one for $18,200 & to come within $1,600 of the leader! Not enough time for the last clue dealing w/ The 21st.

DJ! LACH TRASH (all attempted): $3,600 (The 21st)

Going Into Final Jeopardy!:

Jason: $19,800
Drew: $6,800
Janemarie: $20,200

CORYAT SCORES:

Jason: $19,600
Drew: $6,800
Janemarie: $14K

FJ! CATEGORY: The NFL (which is good news for both yours truly & Jason).

This team that joined the NFL in the mid-1970s is the only one whose name starts w/ the same three letters as its city's name.

Drew Tompkins blanks out but didn't wager anything because he's presumably not a fan of said popular sports league. Jason Keller wrote down "Who are the Seattle Seahawks?"...right to retain w/ $25K for the second night in a row! Janemarie Cloutier ran out of time & misses out on $39,601; she'll have to settle for $1K. As for Jason, he's got a four-episode total of $94,800!
