On tonight's show of America's
Game-Wheel of Fortune- we continue with Family Week. Per the usual
course, we started with the first Toss Up puzzle of the night, worth
a $1000 dollars. The Proper Name category puzzle tossed out random
letters until one team was able to solve the puzzle. Becky and
Amanda-two best friends from Illinois-were the first to score some
cash with Susan B. Anthony. Meoshie and Starlie were up next, two
best friends from Alabama and Hawaii respectively. Kathy and Heidi
are best friends who like to sip wine and watch their husbands go at
it over the ever popular game of ping pong.
Meoshe and Starlie were able to snag
the second Toss Up, worth a nice $2000 dollars. The People category
was solved quickly with, Human Pyramid. Jim-the announcer-was able to
add an amazing trip to Washington D.C., courtesy of Collette-a web
based travel guide to your favorite destinations. This particular
trip was worth $11,000 dollars.
Starlie and Meoshe were able to start
the first spin puzzle-having won the second Toss Up. The Things
category promised plenty of opportunity to win some cash and prizes.
The friendly duo was able to rack up some great cash, the Wild Card
piece and the great trip to Washington D.C., as well as, solving the
puzzle with Department Store Mannequins.
Kathy and Heidi were up next for the
second spin puzzle, a Before and After category. The ladies were
doing great, until the big black Bankrupt came to slap it all
away-allowing Becky and Amanda to take their turn at the wheel. Just
one spin into their game and the Bankrupt struck again, knocking the
game back over to Meoshe and Starlie. Third times a charm, apparently
wasn't true for this crowd, as the Bankrupt got Meoshe and Starlie as
well-which cost them their Wild Card. Back to Kathy and Heidi, the
women were on a roll until that dastardly Bankrupt came back to nip
them again, costing them their $3800. Becky and Amanda landed on the
Mystery game piece and comically bantered back and forth over whether
they'd take the risk. Deciding against it at the last, they solved
the puzzle with , You Are The Sunshine Of My Life Savings. Pat, being
a great mediator, allowed the girls to lift the Mystery game piece
and lo-and-behold, the Bankrupt would have taken their good start!
After the break, the prize puzzle was a
Fun and Games category, which meant Becky and Amanda, were first to
spin. Landing on the Express $1000 dollar game piece, the girls
decided to play, giving them a chance at a $1000 for every consonant
until they could solve the puzzle, however, they missed on the letter
M; which gave Meoshe and Starlie a chance to solve with Exploring The
Coastline In A Kayak. Solving the puzzle netted them a great trip to
St. Croix, that was worth $11,998 dollars.
The last Toss Up puzzle of the night
was a Movie Titles category, Kathy and Heidi scored a flash of a
second ahead of Amanda and Becky with, Legally Blonde. Living Things,
was the category for the Final puzzle. Pat gave the wheel a final
spin and consonants became $1400 dollar gold mines. After getting
plenty of letters put up on the board, Meoshe and Starlie were able
to solve the puzzle with, Fragrant Wildflowers.
Moving on to the Bonus Round, the
ladies picked the Stars prize and worked to solve the Thing puzzle.
With the normal R, S, T, L, N, and E letters along with, C, M, D, and
O. Not getting a lot of initial help, the women weren't able to solve
the Hobbyhorse puzzle, and missed out on adding $45,000 to their
already impressive total of: $40,798
