Nalini paid attention to her entertainment news, because she recalls "THE LORD OF THE RINGS" GETS OSCAR CLEAN SWEEP.

Yep, with 11. Wow.

She only gets DAILY, so she doesn't finish this DAILY WORKOUT for $25,000. Final score: $20,650.
CHAT: Wheel catches up with Ainsley Davies, who won a (likely two-day) total of $54,678 in the late 1990s (one of her Bonus Puzzles was GOLF BAG, which she didn't solve for $25,000). She later joined OLA, a youth program at a community center, and used her winnings to help a young woman named Angie buy books and supplies.
In fact, this whole week, the show profiled former contestants. Also, Pat has another new name for this week: Spittin' Polish.
