Can you solve this preview puzzle?
From Sony Pictures Studio, it's America's game! It's getting scary as we start Halloween Week...
The answer to the puzzle is not "Patrick", but OSTRICH. Pat might have simply forgot the category. He's a "thing" of wonder.
Sneaking in tonight:
Joe Silvers: Tax administrator for Davidson County in North Carolina, from Lexington
Patty Gallagher: Elementary school substitute teacher, from Hatboro, PA
Nisa Saronic: Executive assistant at a major entertainment company, from Los Angeles, CA (originally from Miami, FL)
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is $1,000. We've got a Puzzler for this round, but don't let that startle you!
...and she does with ALARM CLOCK.
Nisa solves SARAH MICHELLE GELLAR AS BUFFY.
Nisa solves BEHAVIOR & DRESS PATTERN. Sometimes, it's just that kind of night.
DING DING! DING DING!
We're almost out of time, and now Pat must give the Wheel a Final Spin. Consonants are worth $300 + $1,000 for $1,300 a piece.
Joe: S ($3,400)
Joe spoils the sweep by solving IT GIVES ME THE CREEPS.
BONUS ROUND:
RSTLNE gives her:
BGHO does a little bit.

I guess odd puzzles and bad spins can do that. Patty will leave with only the nice parting gifts.
