Eggland's Best Jackpot R: What Are You Doing?

She immediately gets that eBags.com gift card w/ a G-spot for two G's, buys the I, calls the $700 N & purchases the A at the end of the second line & four O's, then coming her way is the Bankrupt next to $650 to wipe her out of $1,950 in cash & luggage. Second, Lindsey calls out two L's for that MDW, a $500 K to finish the first word (LOOKING) & pick up the 1/2 CAR w/ $900 next door, but she then LaT. Third, David gets a $650 R, the other two vowels (three E's in the last word & a U), two FP T's to add a grand but the LaT also stops him. Melissa then plays it safe...

After purchasing three A's & an E w/ her spendable $500, she tries the R & gets two of 'em for the other 1/2 CAR & a thousand dollars, but next is H for hush. Second, David immediately loses a turn by calling C while on the WC. Third, Melissa calls in a $500 N for the 1/2 CAR from the previous rd. & two $500 L's to triple her current cash stash for this puzzle & the right to pick up the getaway wedge. After a U buy, an $1,100 M pair & a leftover I to finish the third & final word (ANIMAL), Melissa has displayed...

After that, he calls on tres D's to throw in $2,700 but then hits that LaT for the second time this evening. Second, Melissa calls the $300 G & the $900 L before spinning the other Bankrupt in play to lose her plate & the $1,200. That opens an opportunity for Lindsey...
