Look at this studio filled with glamorous prizes! Fabulous merchandise including:
An $18,000 gourmet center!
A $14,500 sapphire and diamond ring!
A $12,000 Isuzu car!
Over $105,000 just waiting to be won on...

Today's contestants:

George Rubraca: Retired fireman of 23 years, from Las Vegas, NV
Chantal Peretan: Data entry operator for a control data corporation
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is $1,000. Try not to hit Bankrupt, or you will lose all your cash, but once you buy a prize, it's yours to keep. Here's our first puzzle!
Susan guesses TWO WRONGS WON'T MAKE A RIGHT.
George solves TWO WRONGS DON'T MAKE A RIGHT. He later admits to being nervous on television.
Things could get rough in the studio after we add a prize to the Wheel. It's a Tiffany and Co. gift certificate featuring Stirling silver French patterned hinged box (labeled SILVER) worth $2,000.
George solves JOHN TRAVOLTA to keep the silver box!
We've got some more "silver" on the Wheel to help you take the gold! Try for the $5,000 space!
Chantal solves STRETCH LIMOUSINE.
There's still time left, but Pat must give the Wheel a Final Spin. Consonants are worth... $300 a piece. Susan begins.
