From the Wang Center for the Performing Arts in Boston, it's America's game!
Today's contestants:
Terry Regan: Real estate agent, from Buffalo, NY
Colleen Fitzpatrick: Full-time mother of one, from Dedham
Paul Carter (returning with a 1-day total of $8,600)
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is $1,000. We are playing for cash, and here's our first puzzle:
Paul solves FLIRTING WITH DANGER.
Terry says PRINCESS, but starts over and solves GRACE KELLY MARRIES PRINCE RAINIER to keep the silver bowl.
After a near slip-up like that, we hope that's out of the way. The $3,500 space will not go to waste.
Terry quickly solves I WOULDN'T TOUCH THAT WITH A TEN-FOOT POLE.
Perfection! Terry solves SINCERELY YOURS FOR THE ASKING. "Now, look how hard you're making Vanna work! That's not easy!"
DING DING! DING DING!
Now we're short of time, and Pat gives the Wheel a Final Spin. Consonants are worth... $400 a piece.
Colleen: N ($400)
Paul: T (DUD!)
Terry: S (DUD!)
Colleen: D ($1,200)
Colleen solves KNOCK 'EM DEAD.

In the post-game, Pat and Vanna thank WHDH Channel 7 for taking good care of the show. Vanna also thinks Pat looks good with his suit and bow tie. Pat says that men have it easy.
