She’s won $2,900 and would meet with a SURFING INSTRUCTOR on her trip to the El Mangroove Autograph Collection in COSTA RICA worth $7,500.

Well, at least it is a better game than the last two, that’s for sure.

No “microwave” food this time, but Mason knows he’ll have a THANKSGIVING DINNER like the rest of us for tomorrow.

Mason makes the consonants worth…$1,600 apiece, so Sophie’s lead is safe.

Mason: 2 R’s
Sophie: 2 F’s
Nadine: L

_ R _ _ _ _ N _

I knew she would choose WAYW?.

MILLION DOLLAR BONUS ROUND #2

After we get a shot of Sophie’s dad, she lands on the second A of AMERICA’S like Sarah from last night. Here’s the end letter(s) of each word…

_ _ _ _ E T

CKAM gives her most of the bottom…

_ _ _ N
_ A C K E T

…but nothing on top and she’s wrong w/ JEAN JACKET, so this gets left behind in the pockets of a DOWN JACKET…
