CWoF Quickcap: 9/29/2022

Two male celebs in this trio
–Tiki Barber, NFL veteran & sports broadcaster who was on the show about two decades ago and doesn’t remember what he won ($0), supporting New York in the sport world and Kinky Boots, playing for United for ALICE (Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed), a charity that provides help for struggling households
–Lauren Ash, sitcom actress who enjoyed playing Dean, but is now in the animation game, playing for Best Friends Animal Society, a charity that gives second chances for pets to get into great homes
–Jim Jefferies, comedian originally from Australia playing for Hillsides, a charity that helps young children and adults give them the support they need

Game 1

Final G1 Scores: Tiki: $41,150 MDW/Lauren: $2K/Jim: $16,600

G1 GT: $59,750
Jim’s G1 Bankrupt Trash: $10,300 + MDW

Scary moments

-Shaky R1 and triple toss-ups.

-With most of this R3 biggie filled out…

T H E / B E S T
P I N E A P P _ E
I ‘ V E / E V E _ / H A _
I N / M _ / M _ _ T H

Jim goes on much to Lauren’s dismay…and regrets it BIG TIME when the BANKRUPT near TD EXPLODES in his face to wipe out $10,300 and MDW — Oh brother. He later admitted that he was a moron for thinking the last word was MONTH, so that may actually have been a blessing in disguise. He doesn’t want to go viral for making an epic fail of a missolve/dud yet he’s gonna go viral for that admission that he would’ve bombed out big time had he not hit that bankrupt.

THIS COULD BE A HUGE HEARTBREAK IN THE MAKING WITH: PHRASE/THING/WAYD?

MILLION DOLLAR BONUS ROUND #1: While Tiki won’t be WASHING MY HAIR anytime soon he could be spending some of this for his own hair-washing needs…

Scary moments

-In R1 on the HOME _________ crossword puzzle, Kara starts w/ an odd and unsurprising insta-dud of T, and then later, after all but the left column is filled, she FLUNKS OUT w/ L (HOME LAKE isn’t gonna work when there’s only one K up here), and one $650 P later, Paula TOTALLY BLOWS IT w/ Y (PAYE?! -__-).

-In R2, Paula PAINFULLY BANKRUPTs near $650 to lose $7,350. And the BANKRUPTs didn’t stop coming.

-In R3, Kara just makes me facepalm w/ that BAFFLING DUD of V on EXPRESS — HUH?! -__-

-We had a cut NULL CYCLE during S-U.
