From Hollywood, it's America's game! Wheeeeeel Of Fortune!
There are plenty of cars on the set so that you can...Wheel Into the New Year!
Today's contestants:
Greg Bentley: Second-year law student in the University of Kentucky, is from Pikeville, KY
Kelly Vaught (male) (Returning with a 1-day total of $54,108)
Linnea Dodson: Works for a personal management company in Southern California (originally from Texas)
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is $1,000. We play for cash as always, and we now begin our first round:
Linnea was looking at the wrong arrow on her second spin.
Kelly solves SNOWMAN THAT CAME TO LIFE. Will the figment that is a $500 bonus become real?
It will with an answer of Frosty. Kelly asks if he gets more for singing it, and Pat said they would deduct for it.
An old habit is to introduce a prize. We'll do it again with a Fred Hayman Beverly Hills gift certificate (labeled SHOP) worth $5,000.
We can't always determine new habits, but the $2,500 space is quite flexible.
Greg has spun already, but Pat resets it to the previous position as Linnea opts to use her Free Spin.
Kelly solves BATHTUB GIN & FLAPPERS.
Random bonus time! Kelly can win $1,000 more by answering this question...
What was the 1920's most popular dance craze?
He doesn't say the answer...he dances it (the Charleston)! The buzzer sounds, but his "answer" is accepted.
Pat then warns future contestants not to establish a new precedent regarding puzzle solves.
With new ideas, the $3,500 does not want to be replaced outright. It still wants to be a star!
The buzzer sounds just after the B is revealed!
Kelly solves THE PAST MAY COME BACK TO HAUNT YOU.
When we say out with the old, we won't take it this far. The first prize can stay, but we also have a trip to Malaysia and stay at Pan Pacific Hotel (labeled TRIP) worth $7,320.
As for the money though, nothing can take the place of the $5,000 space in Round 4, and here's the Person:
DING DING! DING DING! (Toot toot! Thanks, Kelly.)
This oughta do the trick. Pat can give the Wheel a Final Spin. He'll get you consonants worth...$400 a piece.
Greg: R ($400)
Kelly: M (DUD!)
Linnea: C ($400)
Greg: L (x3) ($1,600)
Kelly: S (DUD!)
Linnea: B (x2) ($1,200)
Linnea solves ELIGIBLE BACHELOR.
It gets too serious again, as only one could have it. Greg is unfortunately stuck with the nice parting gifts.
BONUS ROUND:
He did good before, and he can win even more here!
Kelly will slither for the W. He must solve this puzzle though:
RSTLNE gives him...
Will it be the night for CHMI?
The puzzle bites back with an obvious response.
He makes several gibberish guesses, and does not solve BOBSLED...
...meaning he fails to claim the family van. For two games though, $64,208 is pretty good. One more to go!
