Linda Brown (returning with a total of $34,240)
Noel Bankhead (returning with a total of $7,600)

Go away? Well, the $5,000 is here to stay, and it's for the better that it stays!

DING DING! DING DING!
But we don't have a lot of time for it, so Pat will give the Wheel a Final Spin. Consonants are worth... $5,000 a piece! It's anybody's game!

Susan looks like she's played before, so she knows what's next. We add a prize! Here's a trip to Los Cabos in Mexico and 5-night stay at the Westin Regina, plus cash for Spanish lessons (labeled MEXICO) totaling $4,350.
And of course, here's the $2,500 and one-third $10,000 spaces. Can the gold finally be won after a long drought?

Noel sings his answer of HERE I COME TO SAVE THE DAY. Singing won't get you a $2,000 bonus, but answering who said it will get you the cash!
Obviously from singing it, he knew it. It's Mighty Mouse.

Saving the day...well, here comes something for the risk taker in you. This prize is a Snake River rapids rafting trip with Idaho Afloat (labeled RAFTING) worth $7,300.
Between the $3,500 and Jackpot spaces, one of them could play the hero in this round. Maybe both? We also start at a $10,000 pot!
