Joe M.: I think Rosie's getting the easier stack.
Jason: Uh no. Rosie is GOOD.
Gordon: Rosie gives Stephanie a kiss. Regis, to make things fair, wants Tony to give Dante a kiss. Tony declines, so Rosie is giving everyone a kiss. Unfortunately for Tony, it's the kiss of death, as Rosie has cemented her place in the bonus round.

Jason: 5/7 for $100,000
Gordon: Will he go for 5 out of 7 for $100,000? Rosie is giving Dante the overprotective mom lecture. He's a gambler...so he's taking the money to Atlantic City?
Jason: Say what?
Joe M.: I'm a little surprised
Don: Wow. Didn't expect that.
Gordon: Well, $50,000, I'm guessing, will cover the money he owes. So he leaves with $50,000, making him the biggest winner in this version of Password.
Jason: For now.
Gordon: We get new contestants. Rosie gets David Hodorowski, who's a Financial Analyst and an aspiring comedian. David needs to work on his delivery.
Joe M.: Heh.
Gordon: Tony gets Lynn Fischer, who is a Sr. Account Representative for a skin company/

Gordon: According to dictionary.com and wikipedia, it's 1 word
Joe M.: Ok
Gordon: Though Ive seen it a lot as 2 words, too
Joe M.: Yeah, and the perception probably would've been it was two words
Gordon: Sure would - but thats why its tricky
Joe M.: Shouldn't have come down to it, though
Gordon: Agreed. And that's it for this week. For everyone, this is Gordon Pepper, saying Spread the Word.
