On the bright side, he still made it on the ToC roster and has a shot at sweeping this week. The pair of challengers wearing glasses trying to stop the sweep are Kate Matthews from Durham, NC and Dan Feyer from S.F.
My Rating: 6 (D+) (a little disappointed in how today’s show went, but Cris still made it to #5)

Bobby’s Rating is better – 8 of 10, given 2 correct each in our DDs and F!s and Cris indeed being the second 5xC/ToC qualifier this season. Forget about the 3xS’ in the main game, it’s what happens with our DDs and F! that counts. Way to go, Cris!
WHEEL is next.
