Look at these terrific prizes including:
His-and-her 18-karat gold watches!
Barbados resort trip!
Dining room furniture!
Over $43,000 just waiting to be won on...
Wheel Of Fortune!
Today's contestants:
Walt Smerconish (returning with a 1-day total of $6,400)
Nancy Morrison: Mother of two, from Post Falls, ID
Brenda Bennett: Mother and college graduate
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is $750. Try not to hit BANKRUPT, or you will lose all your cash, but once you buy a prize, it's yours to keep. Let's play!
Brenda solves FIDDLESTICKS.
Don't get upset about our $1,000 space. However, we do have another BANKRUPT, so be careful around that!
Nancy solves WORKING AROUND THE CLOCK.
Can Brenda win more? Can Walt protect his title? We're adding a $2,000 space for this round!
Walt: I (x4) ($200)
Nancy: P (x2) ($1,200)
Nancy solves VICTORIA PRINCIPAL. Still an okay amount with a weak Final Spin.

We're back...and we've been playing around the clock! Chuck must give the Wheel a Final Spin. Consonants will be worth... Lose A Turn!
We'll still be playing around the clock, won't we? Chuck gives it another spin, and consonants are worth... $250 a piece.

Walt can't really complain, as he's leaving with the $6,400 he won earlier.
Nancy will return next time!
In the post-game, Susan mentions The Alamo, and we get a little sneak preview of the tour, and they will explore it next time.
(Using some darker colors. It's not easy when you have multiple shades of yellow.)
