Since all the episodes known to exist online of Wheel 2000 are gone, let's flash back to recapping the main U.S. version of Wheel.
OAD: 1/26/87
Unfortunately, in the video I found, the opening is cut off, and we start with Pat introducing Vanna White. So, unfortunately, we don't know how much we are playing for. If there is a more complete copy online, just point it out, and I will edit this portion.
Here are today's contestants!
Maggie Siedel is from Hempstead, New York. Her husband Herb came out to support her, and she has five sons and five daughters-in-law and nine grandchildren, which she names off all nine. I don't feel comfortable naming that many people, so if you absolutely need to know, check the video out yourself.
Faye Scott is from Apple Valley, Minnesota. She is a Model/Actor/Writer/Make-up Artist. She has a twelve-year old daughter and a black belt in karate. She jokes around that she is a "Jack of all trades, master in many", which Pat jokes might be a puzzle.
Scott Sanborn is from Washington, D.C., and is the assistant editor of the Congressional Record. When he's free, he likes to travel, go to the beach, and play Wheel!
Round 1: Place
_ _ _ _ _ _ _

Maggie duds with an R on $300.
Faye gets $500 with an N, but duds with a T on $700.
Scott recieves $300 from an S, $400 from 2 L's on $200, $800 from an H, buys 2 I's, $400 from a G, and $400 from 2 W's on $200.
No more consonants!
W I S H I N G

Scott could throw 8,200 quarters down the WISHING WELL... however this is the shopping era, and I am surprised they allowed it when he said "It's a wishing well", so...

Round 2 adds a full fur coat from Dhikr and Dhikr of Beverly Hills, worth a game ending $10,000! Pick up the FUR, solve the puzzle, and you're paying taxes on essentially a brand new car!
Round 2: Phrase

Scott unfortunately has to go BANKRUPT.
Maggie duds with an R on $900. (EDITORS!)
Faye hits the same BANKRUPT.

_ _ N N _ / _ _ _

Maggie gets $500 from a D, $250 from an F, but has to LOSE A TURN. (as Pat buttons up a button on Maggie's blouse, $750 at risk)
F _ N N _ / _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ D / _ _ _
Faye picks up the FUR, and keeps her turn with $300 from 2 Y's on the $150 underneath. She lands on it again for $150 for an L, buys 3 U's, and attempts a solve.
F U N N Y / Y _ U
_ _ _ U L D / _ _ _
...but FUNNY YOU SHOULD SAY, that isn't what we are looking for. ($200 and FUR at risk)
Scott gets $300 from 2 S's on $150, $250 from a K, and $250 from an H.
No more consonants!
F U N N Y / Y _ U

FUNNY YOU SHOULD ASK... that unfortunate solve stops the fur from being won, but Scott still has $800.
