Hoping to do just as well or even better than her to start this episode are Kimberly Yarrington (who's celebrating a birthday), Joshua Wells, Linda Crump & Joshua Androsky. George says that the first IUFB's the Paradigm home theater system (Rachel in the clam)(IUFB/truck cue piano variant, I think).
Wells: BUCK (DOH)/Kimberly: $750/Linda: $1,100/Androsky: $699
ARP: $999
Linda was over by $101, so Kimberly from Orange County, CA plays Switch? (w/ a saxy main prize cue) for these two additional cheap gifts- a pair of INSIGNIA 32" HDTVs marked at $1,900 (Daniel) & a pair of Sony VAIOs marked at $800 (Amber). After deliberation, Kimberly swaps...& wins!
The next winner could be named Bess Skellenger & the second IUFB's gonna be an 18-karat Tacori Tonya yellow gold center ring worn by Rachel ("Moves Like Jagger" by Maroon 5 featuring Christina Aguilera).
Wells: BUCK/BESS: $1,200/Linda: $1,475/Androsky: $1.5K
ARP: $730
His $1 bid worked that time, so skateboarding Rabbi Mr. Wells plays Flip-Flop for a five-night trip to the Atlanta Jazz Festival (Amber at Door #3)('94 Trip Cue by Edd Kalehoff). Board:
5346
Does he Flop to $5,364 for another easy win...no, he Flips.
Then comes Stephanie Magallanes & the last GUFB this half's those four Kodak camcorders (ceiling)("Lights" by Ellie Goulding).
STEPHANIE: $450/Bess: $599/Linda: $700/Joshua: $500
Linda from Edwards Air Force Base wins said $758 prize & plays the Rat Race for an appliances/cookware package (Amber), a red Elmira Stove Works range (Amber; first two prizes are revealed using the current Edd cue when revealing the opening gifts on Pricing Games like this one & 10 Chances) &/or the "Price Retro Car of the Month"- a '55 Buick Century Riviera Hardtop Coupe (Daniel; includes power steering & power brakes)("Good Feeling" by Flo Rida).

All are over to add to our current misery.
Stephanie: $500/Bess: $550/Peggy: $501/Joseph: $670
ARP: $649
Joseph was over by just $21 that time, meaning NY social worker Bess plays Pick-a-Pair for the following for a year totaling $5,371- monthly teleflora flowers (Rachel), weekly Fandango movie tickets (both females) & groceries (Amber; using another multi-prize main cue). These items ("Dance Again" by Jennifer Lopez feat. Pitbull) are a 32-ounce bottle of G Series Orange Thirst Quencher, the 40-ounce box of Bisquick, Dove white beauty bar, Smucker's Magic Shell Chocolate Fudge, a six-ounce container of French's French Fried Onions & a 20-count box of Ziploc Slider Bags. First guesses are the Gatorade & the topping...incorrect- the Gatorade's $1.59 & the topping's $2.69. She dumps the topping for the soap...win! The onions & the Bisquick were both $3.59 & the bags were $2.69.
Kylie Irick sees the "Clock on the Wall" & now must join the other three to bid on a SONY PSP package (Amber at Door #5).
Stephanie: BUCK/KYLIE: $1,200/Peggy: $1.5K/Joseph: $1,100
ARP: $670

Tami Bankrupts out instantaneously on the Million Dollar Wedge's right side. Secondly, Lisa loses a turn on the regular one next to the Wild Card.

Back to Tami, who inserts the $300 D at the end of the first line, two R's to multiply the figure by five & three O's to clean the vowels out, then coming her way are trip P's for 900 more bucks & we have...

After two O's, a $450 H, $600 worth of two C's & the leftover U pairing, she spins up LaT. Mike Bankrupts for the team again (this time next to $3.5K), so Tami plucks the L & the two B's, all at $300 per pop...

Catherine closes out Back in the 20th Century w/ the Daily Double & four thou; Elyse has half her total ($2K) & Krishna has 1/2 of Elyse's score ($1K). The bet she makes is face value (or Krishna's current bank).

Last time she found a DD, Catherine has twice as much as Elyse; this time because of the $800 Visiting the Boston Area answer, the roles are reversed & Catherine has six big ones while Elyse has 12; Krishna's currently in last w/ $3,400. Catherine's going for half her own nominal score in regards to her knowledge about this:
A circle of cobblestones in front of the Old State House commemorates this 1770 clash in which five were killed.
"What is The Boston Massacre?" says Catherine while she's smiling...& she should be- that's right for nine. And she's still trailing Elyse by $3K (said leader has $13,200), even though she sweeps the DDs thanks to the middle U.S. Government screen. However, she risks $2,800 on this answer:
The Constitution defines this crime as "levying war" against the U.S. or giving enemies "aid and comfort".
"What is Treason?"...good for $13K.
