DING DING! DING DING!

It's only for a moment, however. Pat has to give the Wheel a Final Spin, and consonants will be worth $600 + $1,000 for $1,600 a piece. Yellow begins!

Chrissy & Alex: S (DUD!)
Ashley & Stephanie: T (x3) ($4,800)
Robert & Sherri Lynn: N (x2) ($3,200) (Robert quietly says INTERNET to himself.)
Chrissy & Alex: M ($1,600) (They try to call an L after that.)
Ashley & Stephanie: R (x2) ($8,000)
Robert & Sherri Lynn: C ($4,800)

$10,550	$5,900	$2,850

BONUS ROUND:

Pat was worried (albeit jokingly), but Robert & Sherri Lynn are probably doing really well now that they're in Bonus Land! We have cars and cash, and of course the $100,000!

Sherri Lynn has her parents in the audience, while Robert has his mom and fiance!

Time to give the Bonus Wheel a spin! They stop at the orange space, and they must work together on one last puzzle:

RSTLNE gives them:

The second-to-last space fails to light up for some reason, but they instantly solve BATHROBE! Vanna just doesn't know what to do!

Regardless, they win $35,000! Robert & Sherri Lynn are leaving with $45,550 in cash!

Something very interesting here: the main solve cue used the 1997 version.

The cars here were 2003 Land Rover Freelander SEs and 2003 Volkswagen Beetles.

This is why we watch. Not only for the gut punch, but the random acts of insanity that make you cheer for total strangers, the brothers doing "YMCA," or the wife jumping into her husbands arms which led to the greatest ad lib between Pat & Vanna, etc, etc, etc).

There's a reason this show has been on so long.

I'll never quit watching. Hopefully, you won't either.

Some other things for this week:

The LOSE A TURN lettering is higher placed than usual.
This week also doubles as "Winter Sports Week". It takes place on a wintry-themed set and the Wheel Prizes here are also winter-themed. Also, one of those car pairs are snow-friendly (the Land Rover Freelanders).
Quite a few contestants this week come from the Reno/Tahoe area. I guess they wanted to cherry-pick teens that could handle the snow...
Good thing Robert & Sheri Lynn averted a skunking. Speaking of which, this week gave away $213,850.
