Jacob got two D’s out of his letter picks, one near the end of each word he was looking at. During the 10 seconds he had to solve it, our closed caption
_ A _ D 
“W H _ _ P E R _ T _ S _ L _”
so we can’t tell you what he was guessing. Time ran out and Jacob couldn’t get the keys to the fully electric Volkwagen ID.4 on the bonus card.

Nicole got one C and one D from her letters on the consonant side. She chose A for her vowel and got two of those and that made it
_ W H _ L _ L _ T _ _ S I _ R
Nicole quickly got the first word. The second was not far behind. She topped off the $13,264 she won in the main game with an additional $39,000.

On Jeopardy: $36,200
Hunter only got an I out of the letters he chose. He must have decided right away that he had no chance of solving this puzzle so he
_ T _ R T E D M _ K I _ G C R _ _ Y G U E _ _ E _
like “worcestershire sleeves.” Too bad he didn’t give it a real shot. He might have won that $39,000 on the card.
Thu 9-23-21: $66,500
On Jeopardy: $25,800
Giovanni got one each of his consonants, F, D and C. He also got two instances of the U he chose and, as the saying goes, his work was done. The
H _ _ D P _ _ T W _ S O _ E _
and he only had to recite the solution to add $39,000 to his $27,500 winnings.
Fri 9-24-21: $13,570
On Jeopardy: $48,800
Renee got two F’s out of her letters. Funny because we thought that was an odd pick and we didn’t think she needed to pick the H at all. Ironically, the first and third words began with
T _ _ _ A M _ T _ R _ _ L _ T T _ R _
so it would have been a gimme if she had either one of the other letters but just the F was not enough. She lost out on an extra $39,000.
