Air time:  7p ET/6p CT on Telefutura
Host: Marco Antonio Regil
Portillo (Jacobo, Angel, Felix, Omar, Angel)
Padron (Pedro, Carmen, Pedro, Hidelio, Alain)

After three, the Portillos lead, 156-85. The double: other than cheese, an ingredient people put in pizza (3). Hidelio fires with #1, pepperoni. They can't come up with any more, so the Portillos try to steal with mushrooms... Not there, giving the Padrons 257. Other answers: sauce, peppers.

Triple: something that, when it happens, you have to say "How lucky am I?" (3). Angel wins the lottery for #1. They survive an accident and find a wallet for the win, 393-257.

Angel & Omar take on Dinero Rápido. Angel gets 153, while Omar gets ... only up to 187. How hard is Fast Money these days? Anyways, they get the $500 and the trip to part two...

Bobadilla (Danilo, Margarita, Michelle, Brenda, Luisa); $1000; two games
Portillo (Jacobo, Angel, Felix, Omar, Angel); $500

After the double, the Portillos, el equipo de puros hombres, lead, 255-88.

Triple: an occupation in which it is very important to be well-dressed (4). A lawyer is #1 for Angel. A banker, model, and... an impresario? The champs hope so.. Not there! The Portillos win, 426-88. Other answer: secretary... said!

Angel & Omar return to DR, where Angel draws... buena suerte. No more money there.... They only get 103 for another $500, giving them $1000 for today.

Round 1: David Spade and Juliette Lewis lead us to the Hot Corner. In it, the hottest woman in the universe... right now, Carmen Electra. Tiger Woods grips it and rips it into a break with Katie in the lead, 450 to Judd's 200 and Stacey's 100.

Round 2: points doubled, intensity.. quadrupled. Donatella Versace leads up to a trip Below the Beltway. The clues: "a whiff of grapeshot", "the Little General"...  It's Napoleon Bonaparte. Paul Reubens is our Mug Shot today. Katie is still leading, 850 to Judd's 400 and Stacey's 300.

Round 3: let's put on our "Hasselhoffs". That would be David Hasselhoff. Katie rides the Knight Rider all the way to a W, 1250 to Judd's 600 and Stacey's 500.

Bonus Round for a trip to Mazatlan: it's between OJ Simpson and... Ashlee Simpson. Katie gets the 10 with 10 to spare.
