Erica knows about EXCHANGING GIFTS. Let's talk to the lady down at the end first...
Erica Echeverria: engaged to Marine who proposed while swimming w/ dolphins, full-time graduate student and therapeutic staff support worker for autistic children from Scranton, PA
Jesse Meyen: 6th and 7th grade math teacher at Hawthorne ES in Beverly Hills from Los Angeles (orig. from Slayton, MN)
Nan Hill: sales associate/cashier from Pendleton, OR

_ _ _ L A S
_ _ X _ _
Jesse locates DALLAS, TEXAS.
Jackpot Round: THE 90's
Jesse leads off w/ a $700 T before BANKRUPTING near the sears wedge. Second, Nan takes $5K worth of N's and uses some of that to buy four E's and an A, but she LOSES A TURN after putting up an L. Third, Erica picks up the Wild Card w/ two S's. She follows up w/ an I, three R's, and an M for miss. Jesse next picks up the AmazingClubs.com gift tag w/ a C and inserts two G's (a null cycle was edited out before he chose that consonant; the Jackpot prematurely jumped to $12,150) before we look at...
G E _ R G E
C L _ _ N E _

He solves GEORGE CLOONEY STARS IN "ER" (he had to back up after trying to add IN before STARS) for $3,100 cash and gift tag.

Nan: $0
Erica: $1K + WC
========
Mystery Round: SAME NAME
Nan's first consonants this round are three T's and a single R. Soon enough, she loses her turn w/ the L. Second, Erica picks up the 1/2 CAR near $450 w/ a D, but the MDW's left side forces her to give up the $500 and both of her cardboard pieces. Third, Jesse says an S and F for flunk. Nan restarts w/ an M, two C's, and three O's, but the same MDW BANKRUPT takes away the leftover $3K. After Erica hits the same normal BANKRUPT as Jesse, said red player puts up triple P's...

========
PRIZE PUZZLE Round: PHRASE
Erica begins this crucial round w/ an S and R for roadblock. Coming down Jesse's alley second are two T's and H's, the latter of which gives him the 1/2 CAR near $900. But after his purchase of two I's and three E's, the BANKRUPT that he got before takes the smart car out of play and costs him $1,200. Third, Nan says two N's, but then C for crap out while on the MDW.

Despite not setting a new weekly season-high total, we gave away a respectable $332,868 on the first week of SSS!
We've given away $294,918 so far on the first week of SSS #2, although we would've been guaranteed to set a new season-high had Pam Loftis not blown her $100K bonus puzzle.

After a null cycle gets edited out at the start, Russell picks two N's and R's for an initial $1,900 deposit. He buys some vowels before picking up the 1/2 CAR near $900 w/ three F's and purchasing the leftover I's. Next is a D for the sears spree, H and T singles, and a look at this...

PRIZE PUZZLE Round: FUN AND GAMES
Kathy finally gets her shot. She begins w/ a $550 T but then runs into the same BANKRUPT that was hit before. Erin secondly spots two S's for $7K, a few vowels, three N's, but nothing more from a B. Third, Russell FPs an O, adds two L's, and closes down the vowel shop (two I's and three U's) before giving up the leftover $500 and his plate to the other normal BANKRUPT. Next, Kathy picks up the Omaha Steaks gift tag w/ three G's, FPs twin H's, and leaves only one letter remaining of this puzzle that reads like this...
C R U I S I N G
T H R O U G H
_ U N G L E / C A N A L S

We come back to him immediately after Michelle LOSES A TURN and Pam strikes out w/ a D. He puts up a $300 R but then BANKRUPTS near $2,500. Michelle next picks up the 1/2 CAR next to $900 w/ four S' and adds a $300 L (she was this close to landing on the other plate), but says I for invalid; that's the only bad vowel of this puzzle.
