PREVIEW PUZZLE: SHOW BIZ
_ O - S T _ _ S
(1997-2000 Intro Music)
"From the Sony Pictures Studios, it's "Soap City Week", with all your favorite Soap Stars on.....
"WHEEL...OF...FORTUNE !!!"
And now, here are the Stars of our show: Pat Sajak & Vanna White !!!"
Before we get the day going of spinning the wheel with our next group of Soap Stars & Fans, let's see the answer to our Preview Puzzle, which is (and never mind the silly, yet stupid guess from Pat):
C O - S T A R S
Let's get to know Wednesday's group of Soap Stars & Fans who are ready to spin the wheel & win a LOT of dough:
Melinda Mazana, 7-Grade Math Teacher from Hermosa Beach & A Martinez from "General Hospital", playing for the Major League Baseball's RBI Program
Lisa Kerwin, a Wife & Mother of two from Valencia, CA & Brook Kerr from "Passions", playing for the St. Margaret Mary School
David Abernathy, a Fraud Prevention Representative from Albuquerque NM & Deidre Hall from "Days of Our Lives", playing for P.A.T.H (People Assisting The Homeless)
Top Dollar Value on the Wheel for Round 1: $1,000
CATEGORY: SHOW BIZ (also the PUZZLER round):
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _
We start things of with Team #1 of Melinda & A Martinez as they first spin of the day is not so good: LOSE A TURN
We now move on to Team #2 of Lisa & Brook Kerr with $400 and an R, there's one and $400 added to their bank...
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ R _ _ _
Another spin of the wheel for the ladies and they get stopped by the LOSE A TURN (as Brook shrieks) but at least the $400 they've accumulated will remain....
Control of the wheel now comes over to Team #3 of David & Deidre Hall as they did too get hit with the LOSE A TURN, which brings a scream from Diedre and Pat jokes "The nice thing is you've ALL been stung here. Let's just start again".
We will indeed start again with Melinda & A and this time around they're successful with $450 and a T, there's two of them for the count & $900 in their bank...
_ T _ T _ _ _
_ R _ _ _
another spin of the wheel with $400 and a P, there are no P's up there....
We move back over to Lisa & Brook, with $400 in front of them already as they land on the $700 mark and an S, just the one S & $1,100 more added to their bank...
S T _ T _ _ _
_ R _ _ _
the ladies forge ahead with $300 and a D, but there are no D's anywhere in the puzzle...
David & Deidre are up again with a FREE SPIN & an N, there's one N and the FS is theirs for the taking....
S T _ T _ _ N
_ R _ _ _
no money in their bank so they have to spin again as they land on the $300 mark and an H, but we can't give them any H's and they chose to hold on to their FREE SPIN for the time being....
Control comes back over to Melinda & A, with $900 in their bank thus far as they land on the $800 mark & an L, there are no L's....
Lisa & Brook take the wheel again, with $1100 on their scoreboard, they hit the $400 mark and a B, there's one....
With $1500 in their bank, they stop there and they take the first round with:
S T A T I O N
B R E A K
as they shriek happily into first place and now, they have a chance to shriek even more if they can solve the PUZZLER puzzle & add $3,000 more to their total....
CATEGORY: THINGS
C O _ _ E R C _ _ L _
5-second countdown and the ladies instantly nab it with:
C O M M E R C I A L S
and with that, their score now climbs up to $4,500 as they currently hold the checkered flag & first place, but we're just getting started....
Top Dollar Value on the Wheel for Round 2: $2500 (also the $10,000 space)

Round 2 begins with Team 2 of Lisa & Brook as their first spin this round with $500 and an S, but unfortunately none of which appear in this puzzle.
David & Deidre are up next with $300 and a T, triple the T's and $900 for them....
_ T _ _ _ _ _ _ ' T
_ _ _ _ _ _ T _ _

$1400 in their bank thus far as they buy an E, we can give them two E's....
_ T _ _ _ _ _ _ ' T
_ _ _ _ E _ T _ _
_ _ _ E R _ _ _
$1,150 left on their scoreboard as they take to the wheel again with $900 and an N, triple the N's and their score jumps up to $3,850....
_ T _ _ _ _ _ N ' T
_ _ _ _ E N T _ _

They buy an O, there are two of them and $3,600 left in their bank...
_ T _ O _ _ _ N ' T

N _ _ E R _ _ _
They then buy an A and there are two of those as well....
_ T _ O _ _ _ N ' T
_ A _ _ E N T O A
N _ _ E R _ _
$3,350 left as they spin again with $900 repeat (just barely got off the BANKRUPT) and an M, but there aren't any M's up there.
They do have the FREE SPIN in their possession as they decide to use it as the disc is passed down to Pat and they take another turn of the wheel.
$600 is their number and a V but there are no V's either....
Control of the wheel now comes over to Team 1 of Melissa & A as they spin & land on the $700 mark and a C, double the C's and $1400 for them...
_ T C O _ _ _ N ' T
_ A _ _ E N T O A
N _ C E R _ _ _
and with that $1400, Melissa & A choose not to spin anymore as they take this round with:
I T C O U L D N ' T
H A P P E N T O A
N I C E R G U Y
and with this, they are now on the board with that $1400 as they're currently in second place with Lisa & Brook still in holding the checkered flag with their $4,500 while David & Deidre Hall are still stuck at the starting line with zero...

_ _ _ _ _ N _

***Going into commercial, a clip of Deidre Hall (as her character Dr. Marlena Evans-Black) on "Days of Our Lives" is shown.

As we return from commercial, time is running short so, it's Pat's turn to take the wheel as he gives it a Final Spin and vowels, as always, are worth absolutely nothing and consonants are worth: $5,000 !!! (add a thousand to that, $6,000 !!!)

and with that big win, the ladies shriek happily as they are today's Big Winners with $10,500, which is all in Cash (for Lisa) & Charity (for Brook) and they will be playing in the Bonus Round coming up !!!
At least all of our teams won something today, Team 3 of David & Deidre Hall finished the day in second place with $2,600, which goes to David and for Deidre, her charity will walk away with the house minimal of $10,000.
