WoF Quickcap: 12/7/2022

O CHRISTMAS TREE, O CHRISTMAS TREE, how may this midweek trio gift us something so lovely
–Derwin Everett, an orator who hopes he could take over for Mr. Jim in future seasons (Jim wants to lock up) from Thibodaux, LA (it’s a small town between Baton Rouge and New Orleans, located on Highway 20)
–Corinne Bernhard, a lady who has been to many Disney Parks worldwide (including Disneyland Paris, Disney World, and Disneyland all together about 30 times, lots of which were with her best friend Marissa who was in the audience) from Chicago
–Mindi Fritton, a lady who grew up on a cattle ranch (they raise cattle and she loves her cows) from Lincoln, NE

Final Scores: Mindi: $26,682 cash & WDW/Derwin: $1K/Corrine: $11,150

GT: $38,834
Tonight’s Bankrupt Trash: $9,850

Scary moments

-In R1, Derwin calls a VERY FATAL DUD OF C FOR CRUD to throw way $18,465 cash & DISNEY CRUISE LINE which means the upper row of the PEPPERMINT _________ can’t be COFFEE — oh brother. 😖 Corrine also added in the name of the clue in front of her response despite Pat’s warning to not add anything, although it was accepted.

-The main three rounds were a BANKRUPT-fest, such that Corrine WIPES OUT on EXPRESS — I just knew that would happen sooner or later in this season.

$100K Bonus Round: Mindi doesn’t get to pet this FLUFFY HARE after WIPING OUT from $45K — BLACK FIRE?! -__-
