Airdate: October 23, 1995
From Sony Pictures Studio, it's America's game! Welcome to California Dreamin' Week!
Living the game show dream:
Steve Munk (returning with a 1-day total of $35,300)
John Mammoser: Comedy writer for 6 years and counting, from Culver City and claims to have jogged here (originally from Buffalo, NY)
Stacey Fratkin: Married, is a human resources professional for a technical organization, performed in local theater, Los Alamos, NM
John also has a very dedicated cheering section!
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is $1,000. We are playing for cash, and we begin our first round:
Perfection! Steve solves I AM NOT A CROOK. Can he guard the $500 bonus from his opposition?
Never any doubt. He says Richard Nixon.
This prize is ready to be taken. It's a trip to Santa Barbara and stay at Four Seasons Biltmore (labeled TRIP) worth $3,900.
We also have the $2,500 available for Round 2, in possible harmony with the Double Play token:
John quickly tried to change to I, but it was too late. Pat also mentioned the rule about Y on the show.
Stacey solves RAISE YOUR RIGHT HAND AND REPEAT AFTER ME.
Dang it! We could have had double perfection and a big payoff.
It may come back to John with the $3,500 and one-third $10,000 spaces on the Wheel.
Stacey solves A COVEY OF QUAIL.
It's time for the $5,000 space to rule as we begin our next round:
Perfection! Steve solves BALTIMORE MARYLAND to keep the trip.
And thanks to Steve avoiding the S twice, we have time for another round!
DING DING! DING DING!
Though we don't have much. Pat gives the Wheel a Final Spin, and consonants are worth... BANKRUPT!
Not much money either, so again Pat gives the Wheel a Final Spin, and consonants are worth...$5,000 a piece! Redemption for John?
John: N (x2) (and a guess of BUFFALO BILL'S DEFENSIVE LINE) ($10,000)
Stacey: T (x2) ($10,000)
Steve: R (x3!) ($15,000)
Steve solves GENERAL PRACTITIONER!
Why did it end up like this for John? He must settle with some nice parting gifts.
The Free Spin stays behind to listen to some of John's crowd expressing their love of him.
BONUS ROUND:
Regardless, that Speed-Up was all Steve needed to win this one! With a new week, new prizes!
He picks another envelope: the second E. His final puzzle:
RSTLNE gives him...
The letters he picks are CMDO...
...oh nuts.
He does not solve PAPRIKA...
...and can't start by taking the Beverly Hills shopping spree. But he still has $61,050, and he's back for one more show!
During the post-game chat, Pat and Vanna refer to Round 3 by talking about how to describe groups of animals...including "a garage full of game show hosts".
