Tris here, ready to do another Retro Recap for Wheel, this time in Season 13.
Lots of money's been won in this first week of the new year, but there's still plenty to be earned and these contestants will try their best to break the bank:
Leander Beatty: He's a Certified Nurse Assistant who enjoy's fishing and writing from San Diego, CA.
Victor Svistenoff(?): He's a Contestant Search winner. He's also a UC Berkeley graduate who's majored in Asian Studies who comes from Citrus Heights, CA.
Melinda Ortiz: She's a real estate agent from Little Rock, Arkansas who's won $56,100 in her 2 days here including a nice convertible.
============
ROUND 1:
Top dollar is $1000 as we play for cash, as always, with this puzzle:
S/S (1)/$300
$300 + S/BANKRUPT/-$300 + S
Victor/R (2)/FS
FS/F (1)/$750
$750 + FS/H (1)/$200
$950 + FS/E (4)/-$250
$700 + FS/N (1)/$1000
$1,700 + FS/D (1)/$250
$1,950 + FS/A (2)/-$250
$1,700 + FS/C (3)/$300
$2,600 + FS/O (3)/-$250
$2,350 + FS/V (1)/$250
Victor solves the My Fair Lady tune I'VE GROWN ACCUSTOMED TO HER FACE for $2,600 and that Free Spin
BANKRUPT: Leander ($300 + Surprise)
Leander: Got unlucky with that wheel
Victor: $2,600 + Free Spin
Melanie: Still has her previous winnings
============
ROUND 2:
$2500 is the top dollar amount as we add a pair of waterproof night vision BINOCULARS worth $3,600.

It's a Thing as Victor spins that wheel:

$2,600 + FS/Y (1)/$400
$3,000 + FS/A (1)/-$250
$2,750 + FS/C (1)/$200
Victor can afford to buy a FRENCH TAPESTRY with the $2,950 he's won this round, not to mention the Free Spin he still has.
PERFECT ROUND
Leander: Still has $0
Victor: $5,550 + Free Spin
Melanie: Gets to start our next round
============
ROUND 3:
We have that $10,000 space on the wheel, but be careful of those 2 bankrupts next to it. Top Dollar is $3500, however, as we show the puzzle for this round:

Victor can't get past this SPEED BUMP and $25,000 has to go back into the vault.
But don't fret, Victor has $16,800 and will be back tomorrow to win some more moolah.
There's a plug for a Baskin-Robbin's sweepstakes going on and that's ends this recap. Feel free to comment on this episode and this recap and I look forward to reading your comments. Thanks for reading!
