Today's finalists:
Michelle & Julie (returning with a total of $16,140)
Joanne & Jennifer (returning with a total of $5,000)
Kristin & Lynn (returning with a total of $12,750)
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is $1,000, and since you're already in the finals, you have no excuse to stop early. This is Vegas anyway.
Joanne & Jennifer solve ALAN & ADAM ARKIN. "Two fine actors, one fine puzzle, one good hug..."
Be all you can be as a pair of Wheel contestants! Go for the $3,500 and Jackpot spaces, and don't forget that it's $10,000 Friday!
Michelle & Julie solve NONSTOP FLIGHT OF STAIRS to keep the technology package.
Even after the confusion, we still have time for another round.
DING DING! DING DING!
But we don't have much time left, so Pat will give the Wheel a Final Spin. Consonants are worth... $5,000 a piece! Everybody's still in this.
Michelle & Julie: N (x2) ($10,000)
Joanne & Jennifer: S (x2) ($10,000) (Kristin calls R before the turn ends.)

...followed by one good prize package for the Wheel. We've added a Swintec SW800 copier, 1000 portable word processor, and fax machine, plus a Motorola Startac cellular phone (labeled HI TECH) totaling $7,986.
If only we could say two great spaces. The $2,500 space is all good, and the $10,000 prize needs to be more like that.

Michelle & Julie opt to use their Free Spin, but they're so quiet that Joanne & Jennifer don't hear them before they start spinning. Pat stops and resets the Wheel, though not quite to the exact peg.

BONUS ROUND:
After that Final Spin, Michelle & Julie already feel like big winners! They're up to $49,926, but why not take one more bonus prize?
This is our last chance to give something away! Michelle picks the W, and they must solve this puzzle:

...and we can't finish with an Expedition win. Michelle & Julie still leave with $49,926 in total.
In the post-game, Vanna says she has been to the casino. They actually have Wheel and Jeopardy! slot machines! Pat notes that you can't really do that with Hollywood Squares. Also, one important thing to remember is that you can leave with the big cup of coins that you have. "Know when to hold' em!"
