Look at this studio filled with glamorous prizes! Fabulous merchandise including:
A pair of motorcycles!
A pair of his-and-hers diamond watches!
A $20,000 Saxon convertible!
Over $100,000 just waiting to be won on...
Wheel of Fortune!
Today's contestants:
Amber Martini: Secretary for an international organization, from Kensington, MD (born and raised in D.C.)
Kathie Webster: Mother of two, from Mesa, AZ (originally from Warsaw, NY)
Norm Krop: Office manager at a law firm, from Alexandria, VA (originally from Pittsburgh, PA)
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!
Norm solves REAL-ESTATE BROKER.
For the way he plays, maybe Norm deserves a Wheel prize. This time, it's a Tiffany & Co. set of English-cut crystal stemware for 8 (labeled CRYSTAL) worth $1,320.
Kathie solves DOING WHAT WE DO BEST.
Let's award some more money like we do best! Note that there's a $5,000 space on the Wheel!
Perfection! Norm solves STEVEN SPIELBERG.
Will Amber surprise us? Pat must give the Wheel a Final Spin, and consonants are worth... $1,500 a piece. It could happen...
Amber: N (DUD!)
Kathie: R (DUD!)
Norm: P (DUD!)
Amber: T (x3) ($4,500)
Kathie: H (DUD!)
Norm: S (x2) ($3,000)
Amber: D (DUD!)
Kathie: C (x2) ($3,000)
Kathie solves COAST TO COAST.
