From Hollywood, it's America's game! Wheeeeeel Of Fortune!
This is My Best Friend week!
Today's teams:
Owen & Grant: Both go to the same high school. Owen is on high school soccer, wrestling, and volleyball teams; as well as a violin player in school orchestra. Grant is on a wrestling team and wants to be an architect someday. They are from Arlington Heights, IL.
Sophie & Elenore: They are Grade 8 high school students at the same high school. Sophie is part of a high school drama program. Elenore is interested in music and also wants to be an architect. They are from Atlanta, GA.
John & Mark: They are Grade 8 students, but at different high schools. Mark enjoys running cross-country track. They also have their own pet iguanas (Pat needed to get some info from John!). Both are from Texas.
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is $1,000. We are playing for cash, and here's our first puzzle:
We have the big prize, and we finally some Big Money! Can you hit the $2,500 space?
John & Mark solve I HAVE NOTHING MORE TO SAY.
As simple as that, you gotta try for the $3,500 space. We do understand if you are uncomfortable about the one-third $10,000 space...
Owen & Grant solve CENTIPEDES & MILLIPEDES.
Pat insists that you try for the $5,000 "speece" on the Wheel. (There may also be a Round 4 prize, but we never get to see it.)
John & Mark solve THE WHOLE SHEBANG.
DING DING! DING DING!
Though we'll have to be fast, so Pat will give the Wheel a Final Spin. Consonants are worth... $5,000 a piece! Who will take the title?
