Go!
Samantha solves I'LL GIVE IT A SHOT.
Today's contestants:
Samantha Jones: Finishing her thesis in environmental health policy, from Baldwinsville, NY
Ben Cornwell: In the retail management business, from Venice, CA
Eilene Wolslager (not Wolenslager): Adjunct marketing instructor and a part-time chocolate maker, from O'Fallon, IL
Go!
Samantha solves MINIATURE GOLF COURSE.
But Samantha didn't come here for a miniature reward. She might as well try for the $10,000 prize!
Ben solves SOLAR & SPRINKLER SYSTEM.
* PRIZE PUZZLE! *
Ben solves I'M WALKING ON SUNSHINE to keep one trip...as well as another trip, to Hawaii with a stay at Aston Waikiki Beach Hotel from Resort Quest worth $4,000.
If only both Mystery spaces were good, but no. You must decide on one $500 space. There's one with a BANKRUPT and another with a Neiman Marcus gift certificate worth $10,000.
Samantha solves PLEASE PASS THE SALT LAKE CITY for a lot of money! (She pronounces "pass" with an accent, and Pat has her repeat the answer just to make it clear.)
Go!
Samantha rings in...but says TALENT SCOUT a bit too late.
Ben solves TALENT SCOUT in time.
He's just a few dollars behind, so control is important. The $5,000 space could certainly score him a win.
DING DING! DING DING!
We can't eat up much more time, so Pat will give the Wheel a Final Spin. Consonants are worth $900 + $1,000 for $1,900 a piece.
Ben: Y ($4,100)
Eilene: H ($1,900)
Samantha: T (x2) ($3,800)
Samantha solves HOT PASTRAMI ON RYE.
Eilene was just left to starve, so she's only getting the $500 consolation prize.
BONUS ROUND:
RSTLNE gives her:
MYCA only helps at the right side.
