Victor is counting on his winnings from BAM to buy an engagement ring. His girlfriend Julie is in the relationship seat. They've been going out for a couple years. They want to get married but need some money first. They'd like to have a destination wedding in Mexico. Julie knows the ring she wants - it's on the cover of Tiffany's magazine, a circle of diamonds with one big one in the center. She doesn't know the cost but figures it's pretty pricey. Victor has $12,000 in his bank and two lifelines (ATA and JTQ) remaining.

<sigh>

We didn't get to see the Goon Squad.

And Julie may have to do with a more modest ring and a wedding in Philadelphia.

(How do destination weddings work? Do Bridezillas really expect all their guests to pay their own way to some exotic destination, in addition to giving a substantial present?)

I'll JTQ also.

Looks like no expensive ring for Julie.
