|	$729	|	$875	|	$900	|	$1	|

Bob is curious if Kathryn, who is a bride, came directly from the wedding based on how she's partly dressed, or if she's going to the wedding. She's going to one later today...if she wins the Showcase.

Actual Retail Price: $939!

Bob thought Vicki was just going to kiss, but she's trying to wrap around him for a big hug...or something like that. "Don't you touch me! I'm going to my dressing room!" She finally gets to kiss.

Vicki is playing Push Over for a lovely floor clock: Howard Miller Clock Company Presidential Collection floor clock that gleams with a highly-polished hand-rubbed Windsor cherry finish (Brandi and Erika).

She can't touch that clock, either. Vicki will return for the Showcase Showdown later in the show.


Something must have happened. Before the calldown, Kathryn said "Just don't put that on the air, Bob." to him. Then after the calldown, Bob claimed that we didn't go back on the air until he asked Rich for a contestant, this after Kathryn said not to put whatever happened on the air.
