Momentum Builds

Her confidence grew. In the next round, a “Before & After” puzzle, she struck gold—landing both the $3,500 and $10,000 wedges. Meanwhile, her opponents hit “Bankrupt.”

Foster solved “Wedding Ring Toss” and boosted her total to $19,550. “I love this place,” she laughed. Host Ryan Seacrest agreed.

A Tight Race

Dotterer bounced back by solving the next puzzle and winning a vacation, raising his total to $19,324. Oyelowo stayed at $1,000.

In the Triple Toss-Up, Dotterer scored another $4,000, while Foster added $2,000, temporarily losing the lead.

Final Push to the Bonus Round

But Foster came back strong. She crushed the final regular round, solving the puzzle and earning $8,500. Her total jumped to $30,050, securing her spot in the Bonus Round.

Dotterer finished with $23,324, and Oyelowo with $1,000.

Nailing the Bonus Round

Foster chose the category “What Are You Doing?” She received the standard letters: R, S, T, L, N, E. She then picked M, D, G, and O.

The board revealed: R_DG_NG T_E G_ _.

Before Ryan Seacrest could even start the timer, Foster confidently shouted: “Bridging the gap.” She nailed it.

Her correct guess earned her an additional $40,000, pushing her final total to $89,942, plus the cruise.

A Moment to Remember

Overcome with joy, Foster hugged Seacrest tightly. He laughed and congratulated her: “Congratulations!”

For Foster, it truly was a life-changing experience—and a moment her fans won’t soon forget.
