In that case, I'll just focus on the ads and see if I can figure out an airdate (though I do want to note that the ceramic Dalmatian makes an appearance).
From KCCI (an ident is shown before Round 2).
The advert at 15:25 is for a Wal-Mart 23rd-Anniversary sale "Now thru Saturday". Wal-Mart was founded in 1962, so it's definitely a 1985 airing (and the animated logo and category chyrons confirm this is an '85 episode).
The Entertainment Tonight promo immediately afterward makes mention of "welcom[ing] Cesar Romero to Falcon Crest". He made his first appearance on the show on 10/18/85, though this could just as well be referring to taping his first episode.
Advert at 25:10 uses a piece of stock music that's probably better known as (a variant of) the 1987 Blockbusters theme.
Advert at 25:40 plugs a "Celebrity Cup" match between John McEnroe and Björn Borg on "Saturday, November 16", with tickets "on sale now".
The sponsor list looks a bit weird.
Overall, I feel pretty safe in saying this aired in September or October 1985, most likely a weekend repeat.
