For relocate...
We used the 1) 5, 2) 1, 3) 1, etc to interchange the numbered line segments. Remove all the red ones, leave the black ones, and then start replacing the segments. So...take the redline numbered "1" and put it in the fifth letter. Continue on until its done.
Draw it out on a piece of paper or something. It makes it much easier.

My sentiments exactly! Think of this like Jeopardy... it's not so much the answers we enjoy as it is joining the questions to the answers and revelling in the "in-between". In other words, as your second grade teacher always told you, please "SHOW YOUR WORK!"
Thanks,

It's the first letters of the first names of the girl protagonists from those books. Almost had it myself except that I hurried ahead too fast and guessed it was "romantic_bliss". Doh! No Wheel of Fortune for me.

relocate image Here's an image showing how "Elephant" becomes "Relocate"
"1) 5" means "red line 5 belongs in letter number 1". After moving the red lines around and keeping the black lines in place, you get this:

We also have the other long string and the Jabberwocky corruption. It seems like we are missing one... haven't all of the other puzzles come in pairs?
