Once a contestant guessed correctly, he/she stepped up to an oversized keyboard to place letters in the puzzle, which was displayed on a giant screen. All of the letters appearing in the puzzle, as well as a star if there were any punctuation marks or numbers in it, were lit on the keyboard. There was always an additional key lit that represented a letter that did not appear in the puzzle; the decoy key was referred to as "The Stinger." Correctly guessing the clues earned the contestants the choice of two letters on the keyboard, and each time the letter appeared in the puzzle $25 was added to a bank that went to the couple who solved the puzzle. If either contestant found the Stinger, their turn immediately ended and a new clue was played.
