Airdate: September 6, 2004
From Sony Pictures Studio, it's the season premiere of America's game! Wave the flag as we begin American Adventures Week!
Of course, let's start with a taste of good ol' American cash. Toss-Up Time! For $1,000...
Go!
Lindsey solves ROADSIDE ATTRACTION.
Debuting in Pat's new "low-carb" studio:
Lindsey Barrow: Recent graduate majoring in psychology and anthropology, St. Louis, MO
Ashleigh Saleos: Sophomore in Pepperdine also traveling to Germany for an international program, originally from Woodinville, WA
Craig Eastep: Minister of Music at a United Methodist Church and music professor at Winthrop University, Matthews, NC
According to Pat, there's a new "soft drink machine" in the studio. It's cylindrical and spins around, but where would you insert money?
Sounds like they all did their studying, but one must prove themselves with this $2,000 Toss-Up...
...which also happens to be your introduction to a new category!
Go!
Craig solves CHUTES AND LADDERS.
Now that does sound fun, doesn't it? How about some more? Let's try and get at that one-third $10,000 space!
Lindsey solves LATHER RINSE REPEAT.
Any day that we can repeat the success of a Jackpot win is a good day, so let's see if we can do it this time.
Let's also see if we can award a Western River Expeditions experience with Grand Canyon and whitewater and all comforts (labeled CANYON) worth $5,450.
Let's begin our next round:
Lindsey solves MY LIFE BY BILL CLINTON.
Mystery time, but let's step it up. How'd you like $1,000 per letter instead? Do you want to risk that for a Southwest Airlines travel prize worth $10,000?
Perhaps a puzzle should take your mind off of this...
Lindsey solves GENUINE VERMONT MAPLE SYRUP.
Go!
Craig solves A CHART-TOPPING HIT. (He almost says CHARTS but just barely catches himself in "a heart-stopping solve".)
Spreading the wealth just a little more, and another chance with this puzzle coming up!
DING DING! DING DING!
Aw, is the sun setting? I guess Pat has to give the Wheel a Final Spin, and consonants are worth $400 + 1,000 for $1,400 a piece.
Lindsey: N (x3) ($4,200)
Ashleigh: M (x2) ($2,800)
Ashleigh then tries to call an L, but since it's a Speed-Up, it doesn't count.
Craig: C ($3,500)
Craig solves FOUR CORNERS MONUMENT.
It looks like we forgot something. Unfortunately, Ashleigh's adventure goes nowhere, and she ends up with a $500 consolation prize.
BONUS ROUND:
We've updated our Bonus Wheel! Like last season, it's out with the gold and in with the blue, and we mean it this time!
So, what can we offer Lindsey (and possibly her mom, aunt, and cousin)? She shall have a chance at:
Ford Mustang
Chevy Trailblazer
A truckload of cash ($25K-$50K)
...or go all the way! ($100,000)
By the way, Pat mentions that if this were Jeopardy! that she could stay on the set until she had grandkids. The audience felt that one.
With that out of the way, it's time for a spin! The Bonus Wheel lands on the three-star space, and the puzzle will be:

Pat talks about how the crew is busy working during the summer with the new Bonus Wheel, the soft drink machine, and Vanna mentions the new Mystery wedges.
