From Sony Pictures Studio, it's America's game! We begin Sweethearts Week!
Today's pairs:
Jeff & Annie: Married 16 months. Jeff is an investment specialist for a major brokerage firm, and Annie works for the Cal State University Chancellor's office and does computer graphics and web. Both are from Huntington Beach, CA.
Bruce & Christine: Married 5½ years. Bruce is a guitarist and vocalist for a party and dance band, and Christine is a bartender at a Cape Cod resort. They are from Mashpee, MA and have two sets of twin grandchildren.
Aric & Lisa: Married 3 years. Aric is a swimming pool contractor and designs koi ponds, pools, and landscaping. Lisa is a fashion designer in Los Angeles. Both are from Los Angeles, CA.
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is $1,000, which doesn't care about impressions, but only about that Big Money. It's time to play!
Bruce & Christine read what's on the board.
Aric & Lisa solve ROBERT WAGNER & JILL ST. JOHN.
We're not even close to an ultimate winner yet! Someone could still hit that $5,000 space!
Bruce & Christine solve LOVE HANDLES. We'd love to continue, but we're out of time.
BONUS ROUND:
RSTLNE gives them:
