Round 1: EVENT
Four $600 T’s get her started, followed by three E’s, but then the BANKRUPT near big money to lose $2,150. Second, Austin calls up a $600 R, a $650 S, A and U singles, and four $650 N’s. We have…
N E _ / S T U _ E N T
_ R _ E N T A T _ _ N
…he solves NEW STUDENT ORIENTATION for $3,350.
SOLE BANKRUPT: Emily
Mystery/Crossword Round: COLLEGE LIFE
The lone man gets going w/ an $1,800 R trio, three A’s, two I’s, but then D for dud. Second, Bree takes an $1,100 pair of T’s, a U, two O’s, a $900 N, and M for the 1/2 CAR near $600, and an E, but the same normal BANKRUPT spooks her to the tune of $1,750 and her plate. After Emily spins the other normal one, Austin picks a J and goes for what’s under the MW near LaT…that will cost him $1,300. Bree then scoops up $7K worth of two D’s and the crossword board looks like this…
| _ | D | ||||||||||
| T | U | I | T | I | O | N | |||||
| A | R | ||||||||||
| _ | R | A | D | E | M | A | J | O | R |
Her order of DORM, MAJOR, TUITION, GRADE and QUAD is right for the money.
