Airdate: Oct-Nov 1984
Look at this studio filled with glamorous and imaginative gifts! Fabulous merchandise including...
A $14,000 convertible
A pair of turquoise and diamond earrings
A $28,000 van motorhome
Over $100,000 just waiting to be won on...
Wheel Of Fortune!
Today's contestants:
Shirley Hoosac: Mother of two, Brockton, MA
Dewey Webb: Newspaper writer ("Trash is his beat!") and Sea Monkey breeder, Phoenix, AZ
Bonnie Lachen: Grandmother and retired dietician, Yountville, CA
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is $1,000. Try not to hit Bankrupt, or you will lose all your cash, but once you buy a Sea Monkey, it's yours to keep. Here's our first puzzle!
Bonnie solves SOUNDS FISHY TO ME.
The round seemed fishy to me, so let's make up for it with a prize: a trip to Paris and stay at PLM Hotel Saint Jacques (labeled TRIP) worth $4,736. Grab it in this round!
Pat interrupts Dewey so that "Person does not always mean proper name" can be disclaimed.
Perfection! Dewey solves DOCTORS AND NURSES.
A perfect demonstration of recovery earlier. Now the $5,000 could take us even further!
DING DING! DING DING!
We could really use a fast recovery here. Pat will give the Wheel a Final Spin, and consonants are worth...$1,500 a piece.
Shirley: M ($1,500)
Shirley solves MOVING RIGHT ALONG.
BONUS ROUND:
Dewey might not be in that much of a rush to pick a prize now. After some time, he picks...
Ford Mustang convertible ($14,916).
The final puzzle is...
Way to rub it in.
Dewey will stick with the standard STRLNE:
Halfway through, he solves BASKETBALL TEAM to keep the car! He leaves with $20,716 in prizes!
And Pat, you'll have to speak up! Dewey's cheering section is crazy!
