Donna & her son Brandon take on Fast Money. Donna played well with her answers to get her to 130. Brandon faultered on the last two answers, after lifeguards were taken on the shades, he got zero on actors....maybe he should have thought about a bodyguard.....but they fell short and will have to settle for $850.

  Captain Graham is looking for the triple to start tournament week against...
 
TWO DAY CHAMPION
Brendan Graham

stat. San Antonio
soldier & physician

$46,602
Kate Jeracki
Ft. Collins, CO
newspaper staff writer
Danny Parra
Miami
sportscaster

Brendan starts with $200 Play Your Cards Right. At the TV timeout, he leads with $5000 to Danny's $1800. Kate is $2000 down.

Last clue in play belongs to Kate, who bets the level on $1000 Art "R"eview: this term can refer to a style of art or design or to a highly ornamental style of music of the late 18th Century. "What is rococo?" Correct for -$600. With Brendan at $10,200 to Danny's $3600, the lady in the middle will start Double Jeopardy!...

... with $400 It's a Party! Danny finds the first Daily Double under $800 Place. He fronts $5000 on this: Cape Dezhnev, the easternmost point on mainland Asia, juts into this strait. "What is the Bering Strait?" Correct for $11,000! He has $16,600 when he finds the second Daily Double under $1600 Occasion. He bets six big ones on this: September 21, 1897: It seems 3 months early, but the N.Y. Sun publishes an editorial famous for this 7-word phrase. "What is 'Remember the Maine, to Hell with Spain'?" No, it was "Yes, Virginia, There Is a Santa Claus", dropping him to $10,600. He ends the round with $11,000 to Kate's $11,400. Brendan leads with $21,000.

Final Jeopardy! in "1960s TV Characters": one of her first spoken lines is translated as "You have the face of a wise and fearless caliph". Correct response: who is Jeannie (of "I Dream of Jeannie")?

Brendan misses it, and Danny goes all-in to win $22,000. Brendan leaves with $47,602.

Angel Canady, John Worgul, Tina Bright, Donte Daley, and a sling. These are the ingredients of the perfect Monday. We hope. We start with a pair of Swiss watches worth $770. Tina knows what time it is, so she'll play for $10,000 in Grand Game. The target: $7. Valley Lahvosh heart crackers... $3.69. Head & Shoulders shampoo... $4.99. Nestea instant iced tea... $5.59! She takes the risk on Avon Skin-so-Soft bath oil... $6.00! That's $10,000!

John gets an $820 Xbox Kinect package. Now how about a 3DTV and a MacPro. The 1 Right Price: $3618. He picks the computer... and 1 Right Price is snapped by a Terrible Towel!

Susan Leavitt picks up a $1150 windsailer. Now to Cover Up for a Kia Forte. Four in one try gives us a $19,4_2 with 5, 7, 6, and 3. She picks 7... should've gone with 3. But Tina would beat out everyone in the Showdown.

The Little Black Dress highlights this week's PLoW. Tyler Dorrell gets it for $2466. Hot tub is next in Pushover. The board: 5 2 9 0 7 3 7 7 4. He pushes to 2907... Should've gone full push.

Donte wins a $900 camera and a shot at a recliner, a washer/dryer, a scooter, and a Ram 1500 in More or Less. He gets past the $699 chair, the $1475 washer/dryer, and the $3350 scooter. The truck is not $23,300... He goes with MORE... $22,470.

Angel gets one more shot at it with a firepit. The price: $999. Winner... Angel! She gets a shot at Hawaii. The bags in the Balance Game: $537, $3000, $5000, and $7000. She puts it at $8537... WINNER!

Donte beats Tyler, 95-65 in the spinoff. First up, a little summer in the winter with a trip to Jamaica and a speedboat. Top winner Tina passes, and Donte bids $19,000. Tina gets a bunch of apples: a pair of iPads, a trip to the Big Apple, and a candy-apple-red Mini Cooper. She bids $23,500. Actual price: $29,831, a difference of $6331. Actual price of Donte's Showcase... $27,426, a difference of $8426. That's game for Tina with $40,601.

As we reach the halfway point of Season 29, this week we are hungry for some "Fabulous Food!"

The $1,000 Tossup is PHRASE. Nancy Cahill from Framingham, MA solves HOT OFF THE GRILL. She is married for 33 years and works for a pediatric nurse. This is a dream come true for her! Tom Erickson from South Pasadena, CA is a 2nd Yr Dental Student who is married with 2 kids. He has run a few marathons. Jillian Humes from Seattle, WA is a recent nursing school graduate.

The $2,000 Tossup is AROUND THE HOUSE. Jillian misses and Tom has $2,000 with FLOOR LAMP and will start the IHOP Jackpot Round but we add this to the wheel. It's an EZ Italy tour of Rome and Florence with Alitalia Airfare, a cooking class and more! It's worth $8,500! It's EVENT. He starts by getting the 1/2 Kia Wedge. He hits Lose A Turn. Jillian picks up the Italy Trip. She hits 2 Jackpot T's, but can't solve. She eventually solves SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA CONCERT for $5,900 and the trip! She has $14,400 in cash and trip!

And she starts the $10,000 Mystery Round which is BEFORE & AFTER. She misses a vowel. Nancy solves DO THE FUNKY CHICKEN NOODLE SOUP for $2,100. She has $3,100.

And she starts WHAT ARE YOU DOING? which is a PRIZE PUZZLE. She hits a Free Play I. She misses. Tom hits Bankrupt losing cash and Jillian solves SOAKING UP SOME RAYS for no cash but a trip to the Dominican Republic at the PuntaCana Resort & Club from Spafinder.com worth $6,500. If you have LG6710660 and are Lorriea G., you are going to the Dominican Republic! Jillian has $20,900 including trips to Italy and the Dominican Republic.

The $3,000 Tossup is FOOD & DRINK. Tom has $5,000 with VIENNA SAUSAGES. He starts FICTIONAL PLACE. He misses. Jillian Bankrupts. Nancy misses a vowel. Tom misses. Jillian solves SNOOPY'S DOGHOUSE for $1,350. She is up to $22,250 and we have time for FUN & GAMES. We go right into a FINAL SPIN worth $1,500 a letter. Nancy solves BOARDWALK & PARK PLACE for $6,000. She leaves with $9,100 in cash. Tom leaves with $5,000. But Jillian is going to Italy and the Dominican Republic with her total of
$22,250!

The pre-bonus round total is $36,350! Will Jillian get some more tip money for her trips or a new 2012 Chrysler 300?

She lands on the 2nd A in AMERICA'S. Her category is PHRASE. With the RSTLNE and her choices of D M P A we have:

S _ _ P
A _ E A D


Let's just SKIP AHEAD to giving her $30,000 in bonus cash! She leaves with $52,250 in cash and her trips to Italy and the Dominican Republic!
 

Who Wants to Be a Millionaire
by Don Harpwood

Syn: Check local listings
Host: Meredith Vieira

Lashika Yogendran (Brooklyn, NY) - Student
She wants to use her winnings to take her family to Sri Lanka to see her grandmother.

She jumps the 2nd question, which had $3,000. She has $9,000 heading into this...

[Q4 - Take a Knee]
When faced with defeat, legendary football coach Vince Lombardi once famously said, "We didn't lose the game, we just" what?
A: Didn't win
B: Ran out of time
C: Lost our footing
D: Let them think we did

Lashika asks the audience, and 54% say A, with 33% saying B. She decides to go with A... but it's B! That means she leaves with $1,000.

Tony Willging (New York, NY) - Personal trainer
He has opened up his own gym.

He decides to jump the 1st question, which had $3,000. After that is this...

[Q2 - Super Mario]
Which of the following items traditionally makes Mario "grow" in Nintendo's hit game Super Mario Bros.?
A: Egg
B: Mushroom
C: Star
D: Bullet

Apparently, Tony isn't into video games, so he turns to the audience. 84% say B. He goes with that, and that puts into his bank... $100.

He then jumps the 4th question, which had $500. Afterwards, he is able to build his bank all the way up to $58,100 before this pops up...

[Q10 - Room Renovation] (worth $7,000)
Converted from a cloakroom by Franklin D. Roosevelt, the White House's "Hat Box" is a small what?
A: Wine cellar
B: Bowling alley
C: Sauna
D: Movie theater

Tony can't imagine it being B or D. He'd probably say C, but he decides to walk. After seeing that it's D, he leaves with $29,050!
