Last week, Drew was medically removed because of cramps, while Brittani was removed because she just sucked at cooking. Thirteen chefs remain. Who'll be eliminated next?

After the elimination, Cody puts Marc on blast for pointing fingers.

The next day, taco trucks! These will be your inspiration for...

CHALLENGE #5: Elevated Mexican. Each team will create four classic Mexican dishes - a taco, a tostada, a chile relleno, and an enchilada. To determine which protein you'll cook with, you'll have to corral live animals into the pens for each protein. The fastest corraler will get a five minute headstart. Best plates according to guest judge Aaron Sanchez will score. The most points wins.
- HEADSTART: RED TEAM

ENCHILADA
- Adam: Flank Steak Enchilada with Cotija & Onion
- Kori/Mary Lou: Enchiladas de Puerco with Green Mole
WINNER: Adam (Blue, 1-0)

TACO
- Syann/Nikki: Braised Chicken Taco with Jicama & Whole Grain Mustard Slaw
- Josh/Peter: Pork Barbacoa Taco
WINNER: Syann/Nikki (tied at 1)

TOSTADA
- Jordan/Lauren: Steak Tostada
- Marc/Amber: Molasses/Soy-Marinated Duck Tostada with Pepper, Tomato & Radish Salad
WINNER: BOTH! (tied at 2)

CHILE RELLENO
- Declan/Cody: Braised Chicken Chile Relleno
- Kori/Mary Lou: Duck y Nopales Chile Relleno
WINNER: ... no one (tied at 2)

TIEBREAKER between Adam's Enchilada and Syann & Nikki's taco. WINNER... BLUE TEAM!

As a reward, the Blues are going to have the most amazing afternoon of pampering at the Paris Hotel. The Reds... are going to have to muck all the stalls and give the animals a good pampering. Syann decides... NOPE. She uses her Punishment Pass and chooses Cody to take her place.

To make things even more awkward during the spa day, Amber, who can't stand Marc, tells him point blank not to talk to her.

Meanwhile, back in HK, Cody is ... actually enjoying his punishment?

Before service, Peter is starting to get worn down, his heart not really in the competition anymore. Declan is trying to help him keep focus, because he doesn't want to lose another teammate.

DINNER SERVICE #4: Lauren begins with a perfect flatbread for the Red side, while Amber & Marc are still at each other's throats on apps. Nikki holds down the meats by herself. Who has the meats? NIKKI HAS THE MEATS. All in all, the Red side is functioning smoothly, but the Blues... well, a different story as Josh has a meltdown on fish. Ramsay rallies the team together and asks them point blank: Do you have what it takes to become a head chef? Everyone: "YES CHEF!" Peter.... "No chef. I don't." Ramsay asks for his jacket and tells him to (^_^) off. Meanwhile, Amber takes over on garnish, and the rest of the night goes off without a (televised) hitch. UItimately, BOTH teams are named joint winners. And BOTH teams will have to name someone to eliminate.

ELIMINATION #4: Reds put up Lauren for her need for help. The Blues put up Marc because he's Marc.
- Ramsay.... sends both back in line. Peter quit, so no need for an elimination tonight.

Stuart Crane
Kalispell, MT
product line manager

Gina Damico
orig. Syracuse, NY
author

JEOPARDY! ROUND: Autobiographies, 30 Something, "RU" Serious, Pop Culture, Now Listen to Me, Man's Plain

Nicole stats with $200 "RU" Serious. At the TV timeout, she and Stuart are tied at $3400 to $200 for Gina.

Nicole's at $6000 when she finds the Daily Double under $800 Autobiographies. She fronts $1500 on this:
- Chapters in his 1965 autobiography included "Harlemite", "Saved" & "Mecca".
"Who is Malcolm X?" GOOD for $7500! She ends up with that much to $6200 for Stuart. Gina, with $800, will pick first in...

DOUBLE JEOPARDY!: History Across the Ages, Questionable Verbs, Poetry, Cornerstones, Science "D"ictionaries, Musicals by Song Lyrics

... with $1200 Musicals by Song Lyrics, where she finds the first Daily Double under $1600. After Stuart runs out Science "D"ictionary for $6000 more, $12,200 total, she makes it true on this:
- "They chained me & left me for dead, just for stealing a mouthful of bread"
"What is Les Misérables?" FOR THE DOUBLER, $4000!  Stuart is on $16,600 when he finds the other under $800 Poetry. He makes it $1000 to go on this:
- Charles Baudelaire wrote a poem about these "vast birds of the sea" who famously show up in an English poem.
"What are albatrosses?" RIGHT for $17,600! He ends up with $18,800 to Nicole's $10,700. Gina is still in it with $8000.

FINAL JEOPARDY! in "Cable Networks": in March 1979 Tip O'Neill & then-Representative Al Gore were the first politicians to speak on this new cable channel. Correct response: what is C-SPAN?

Everyone's right as Stuart wins $21,800. Nicole leaves with $20,700.

Thursday's trading starts off with Wendy the Valley Girl(Military Wife, Mother of 2, and works with her dad in the vet office) is playing for a 2021 Honda Civic LX Sedan worth $21,755. The game is GO BIG OR GO HOME.
Wendy will start on the GO BIG space on our 16 space game board. She will move around the board via single die roll. Any time Wendy lands on a prize or cash space, that turns into a GO HOME SPACE. If she lands on
GO HOME, she will lose any cash/prizes Wendy earned along the way. But if Wendy can land on GO BIG without hitting GO HOME, she will win the Honda Civic and any cash/prizes she landed on along the way. Her first
roll is 4 and it is $1,000 in cash. 4 will make her GO HOME. She goes on and rolls 1 adding $250. She has $1,250. Wendy does not want to roll a 3. She rolls on with a 2 and adds $750. Wendy has $2,000. 1 will send her HOME. Wendy STOPS.

We need two people and they are Esther the Flapper and Bell(as Medusa - volunteers with rabbits). The game is SILENT AUCTION. We have two items for sale and Esther/Bell have $1,000 each to buy them. They will write down what they want to spend and high bidder wins. Bell doesn't understand the game I think. She spends ALL HER MONEY on the Red Box to Esther's $200. Bell wins a SCUBA EXPERIENCE including a Blu3 Shallow Water Scuba Kit and Lessons worth $2,108! Well..since Bell spent all of her money - Esther is the only one that can buy the Green Box for $100. She does and wins a diamond necklace from Diamonds by Angie worth $4,900! Esther has $5,800 in cash and prizes. Bell has $2,108 in prizes. Who keeps and who trades for the Big Box? No one does and wins A LLAMA IN A LIVING ROOM(ZONK)!

Oscar the Referee(at-homie from NYC - a Bartender) is playing WAYNE'S TECH CORNER. Oscar is shown a bluetooth transparent speaker. Oscar can keep the speaker and it's value in cash OR take Curtain 1. He takes Curtain 1 and passes on $1,100 in cash and the speaker worth $2,200! Oscar wins a new dining room from Furniture Town Plus worth $4,495! Nick the Hot Dog(carrying himself as a hotdog when I was 9 - volunteers with older and special needs dogs). Nick has the Big Box and we are playing CUSTOMER SERVICE HOTLINE. We have three hotlines and Nick will call two of them - LIFEGUARD, SMALL ENGINE MECHANIC and PEGGY(cue Hamilton here). Nick hopes to get clues about the Big Box prize. He calls PEGGY(NO CLUE). Next is LIFEGUARD. The clue is(from "David Hasselhoff" - I CAN RUN MUCH FASTER IN SAND THAN THIS THING GOES. Will Nick take the Box or Curtain 2. He takes Curtain 2 and passes on the Big Box which was a 2021 Vespa Primavera Scooter worth $4,399! Nick wins FAST FOOD RACE CARS(ZONK)!

Tabitha the pirate(At-Homie from Dallas Texas - cover band singer) is playing for a 2021 Kia Soul worth $20,245! The game is THREE OF A KIND. We have 6 cards on the board - 2 complete sets of 4s and Queens. Tabitha will pick 3 cards and is hoping to get a complete set. If Tabitha can find 3 FOURS or QUEENS, she wins the Kia. Tabitha picks 5, 1 and 4. We find out that the 4 and 5 are FOURS. Will Tabitha go for the 1 or take
the Big Box which is a sure thing of a music room with turntable, rypen.com lounge chair and acoustic guitar. We also have a console table and $500 GC to artsugar.co! It's worth $5,323! Tabitha goes for the car and wins...NOTHING. 1 was a Queen along with 2 and 6 making 3/4/5 the fours.

Liz the Showgirl(at-homie) is also playing with Christopher the Bounty Lumberjack(pastor) and Chris the Christmas Rapper(Wrapper). They are playing I'M DRAWN TO YOU. Liz will get $1,000 for being the art judge no
matter what. Christopher and Chris will go on stage and have 15 seconds to draw something that Wayne describes. Liz's choice will win $1,000 and move on. The loser sits down with $100. The clue is SOMETHING YOU SECRETLY FEAR. Chris wins $1,000 for his vampire drawing. Christopher sits down with $100. Chris buys the mini-curtain for $1,000 and wins a Mailbu Getaway from Malibu Wine Safari worth $2,440! Liz buys the LMAD envelope for her $1,000 and wins a MUGSHOT OF ZONKEY THE DONKEY!(ZONK)

Last deal of the day involves Christina the Butterfly(hairstylist/bartender). She has the LMAD ATM Card and can make as many swipes as she wants as long as the machine isn't overdrawn. If she is OVERDRAWN, the money is GONE. Her first swipe is $300. Next is $500. Next is $800. She has $1,600 and goes on with $400. She has $2,000 and STOPS leaving $3,000 in the machine. Will Christina take the cash or take Curtain 3? Christina buys Curtain 3 and wins a trip to Dallas, Texas for 4N at the Hotel Crescent Court worth $4,034!

Who trades for a shot at $23,674? Oscar trades for the Big Deal!

He picks 2. 3 was an entertainment suite including media cabinet, 75" 4K HDTV, SVS Tower Speakers, and 3 Video Game Systems - a Nintendo Switch Lite/XBOX One S and PS4 Pro worth $7,193. 1 was a new kitchen with refrigerator, microwave and dishwasher worth $3,177! That means Oscar wins the Big Deal behind 2 and it is a Natural Habitat Adventures trip to Alaska to observe and interact with Grizzly Bears! That is worth $23,674!

- MIYA: Justin Bieber

- GABBY: Johnny Orlando
PIGGY BANK IS... musician & actor JOHNNY ORLANDO!

- UNBOXING: We have science beakers, a periodic table, and a pair of goggles.... we also have a bib, a baby bottle, and a pacifier... Also toilet paper and a lot of pageant stuff.
- CARICATURES: Gabby as a superhero, Asher has the host of Double Dare, and Miya as a ghost hunter.
- POCKET DIAL: We have an electric guitar, construction sounds, a baby crying, an explosion, and... okay that was weird.

One more trick with David Hopperfield. He's been on a couple of Nick shows including Double Dare with one of his 10 sisters, and has a lot of pets.

It's Day 4 of "Great American Cities" week! Today is it the great city of Nashville, Tennessee!

The $1,000 Tossup is FOOD & DRINK. Kyle Gheewala from San Jose, CA solves BISCUITS AND GRAVY. He is a Business systems analyst for biotech company who does an Indian cultural dance called the Bhangra. Joseph Casilla from Vallejo, CA is a marketing & business development pro for almost a decade married to Christine who’s also sung at famous places such as the STAPLES Center & Dodger Stadium. Kiariie Broussard from San Diego is an accountant in local government married to Walton for nearly 18yrs. She has 50 nieces and nephews and is the 8th of 10 siblings.

The $2,000 Tossup is THING. Joseph has $2,000 with SOUTHERN HOSPITALITY. He starts WHAT ARE YOU WEARING? and misses. Kiariie misses. Kyle picks up the $500 Cash/$500 GC to the Made in America Store with a $500 D but loses a total of $1,650 in cash and GC on Bankrupt. Joseph solves COWBOY HAT AND A BIG BELT BUCKLE for $6,200. He has $8,200. We move on to...

The Prevagen Mystery Round which is started by Kiariie. It's SONG/ARTIST. She misses. Kyle hits 2 Free Play E's. He hits 2 $3,500 Y's but with 6 spaces left, he loses $12,500 in cash on an awful Bankrupt.
Joseph solves I WALK THE LINE BY JOHNNY CASH for NO CASH but we give him the $1,000 house minimum. He has $9,200 in cash.  We move on to...

The Prize Puzzle/Express Wedge Round which is started by Kyle. It's FUN & GAMES. He misses. Joseph misses. Kiariie solves UNDERWATER ADVENTURE for NO CASH but gets on the board in a big way with her trip to Maui! It's a stay at the Hyatt Regency Maui Resort & Spa with Flightguru.com Airfare worth $7,700! That's her score!

The Triple Tossup Round Category is PHRASE. Kiariie has $2,000 with WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? Joseph has $2,000 with WHATS THE SCORE? and Kiariie starts the next round with her $2,000 solve of WHAT A RELIEF! Kiariie went from nothing to a $500 lead over Joseph. She has $11,700 in cash and prizes including her trip to Maui! Joseph has $11,200 in cash! Kyle has $1,000. Kiarrie starts RHYME TIME. Any one can win this as we go into a FINAL SPIN worth $1,500 a letter. Kyle solves STRIVING AND THRIVING for $9,000. His total is $10,000 in cash - not enough to beat Joseph's $11,200 in cash! He also doesn't beat Kiarrie who hangs on with $11,700 in cash and prizes!

The Pre-Bonus Round Total is $32,900! Kiarrie picks PHRASE over THING and LIVING THINGS.

Kiarrie lands on the C in AMERICA'S Wedge. With the RSTLNE and his choices of B C D A we have:

B A S E D / _ N
A _ A _ L A B _ L _ T _

I hope BASED ON AVAILABILITY that Kiarrie can get her 2021 Chevy Equinox SUV with the options that she wants! She solves the puzzle and wins the SUV worth $36,385! That means Kiarrie leaves with $48,085 in cash and prizes including her SUV and her trip!
