Wow, that was awkward at the 14:58 mark. From the graphics, it looks like they forced him to take the L because he didn't do anything else in a timely manner, then control passed over because the L was a stopper. The $500 bonus from the E on the blue square no longer applied because another letter was used. (Thus the producer being heard saying that there was no money.) But because they didn't light up the stopper light (and they played a wrong-guess buzz rather than a stopper sound), she may have thought there were still three stoppers out (including one in front of her), so she wasn't given accurate information to choose whether or not to gamble for the other blue square. They probably just gave her the $500 to make up for their error costing her that chance. That's fair to her. But really, they should have brought *him* back later, because she might have gambled and pulled two stoppers if she'd had accurate information. And all of this on the very next word after CALCULUS was awkwardly edited out. Wonder what the clue for that one was.
As Chuck mentioned, she didn’t see that the letter went off, or the stopper graphic following it. So based on that information, the bonus would have been in effect on a guess since she had no new information. Had she elected to play on, the word would have presumably been thrown out, or perhaps the letter would have been restored.
And Chuck almost gave away "marina" in the first round. Fortunately he just repeated "marines" and not the real answer, thinking the guy had said the right one.
Not so sure that was a good time on the sprint; with what came up on the 3rd one, that could have been gotten immediately. First two were tough, though.
Daran Norris future voice actor of Fairly Odd Parents and more started on here
Gordy also lol
Also had a recurring role on Veronica Mars, I recognized him immediately!
4:05 Potential return? Chuck did inadvertently say it....

@@mrnmrsifl I heard him say "marinas", and she won, so he'd have a reason to be invited back.
That father in law part got super awkward until she explained why...
Daran aka Gordy the janitor
Marvin looks like Dave Coulier(Joey from "Full House")
Was the challenger from the first crossword round the same Daran Norris who voiced Cosmo and Jorgen on The Fairly Oddparents?
14:05 Did they edit out a word? Must have had an issue and had to throw it out while being short on time....
Disaster of an episode all around.
No one better to handle it than the walking blooper reel himself, Chuck.
At least Daran Norris went on to greater things. Wish he won more money, though.
19:40: Oh no I sense trouble in the Bonus Sprint packet.
