From Sony Pictures Studio, it's America's game! European Vacation Week is about to end...
Some puzzles followed us home, but let's just solve 'em. Toss-Up time!
Go!
Brian solves AUTO PARTS STORE. Pat can already tell from his excitement that he's gonna be trouble.
Today's contestants:
Brian Klein: Property manager (who probably owes some friends money), from Huntingdon Beach, CA
Dorcela Smart: Computer systems analyst for a state agency, from Pflugerville, TX
Tom Cameneti: Works for a major oldies radio station (he's nicknamed "The Tall Italian", and he is kinda tall), from Pembroke Pines, FL
Be careful, Brian. Don't break our Wheel, or you won't get any Big Money to pay your friends.
Tom solves TELL IT LIKE IT IS.
Brian solves JOIN OUR CLUB SANDWICH.
Go!
Dorcela solves HOITY-TOITY.
Dorcela gets a taste of the Big Money, but she wants more than that! She'll try for the $5,000 space!
Brian solves UNEXPECTED GUESTS.
DING DING! DING DING!
But we were expecting that sound, and now Pat must give the Wheel a Final Spin. Consonants are worth $300 + $1,000 for $1,300 a piece. Tom begins!
Tom: T (x2) ($2,600)
Brian: M ($1,300)
Dorcela: C ($1,300)
Dorceia says COUCH AND OTTOMAN. That guess doesn't quite work.
