It's been such a long time since I have made a recap. I've been busy with school work (I'm a junior in college), important events, being lazy, so on. Now it's time I come back with this.
S13 Premiere Week
Air Date: 9-7-95
Wheel! Of! Fortune!
It's a good day for some cash, prizes, and basically screaming as you win it. Our contestants, who are also students...
Markette Smith is a sophomore at Phineas Banning HS from Carson, Ca. She has a Barbie collection (interesting).
Shuntel Green is a junior at Ursuline Academy of Dallas from, well, Dallas. She likes volunteering and wants to be a pediatrician.
Joe Scott is a sophomore at Servite HS from Cypress, Ca. He is a class treasurer who does water polo, basketball and volleyball.
Now we know them, so let's play.
Round 1: Husband and Wife
_ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ _
& / _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
Pat with the "We drew numbers" line as always, you know the drill.
Markette
$300: Three T's
$800: One S
Two A's
$400: Four R's
$500: One W
Three E's
uh... Markette, there's no B in there.
Shuntel
$250: One D
Dang it, you got BANKRUPT.
Joe
$750: One N
$900: One L
It's not all that bad, you only LOST A TURN.
Markette
Going for a solve...
R _ D / S T E W A R T
& / R A _ _ E L
_ _ N T E R
The solve is successful! For $3600, Markette solves ROD STEWART & RACHEL HUNTER.
After Round One:
Markette: $3,600
Shuntel and Joe: you know it's round 1, right?
Computers are now the thing (as they have been since the 70s). It's also our FEATURED PRIZE: A Gateway 2000 Family PC, with a price of $1,699. You want it? Land on the COMPUTER space to get it. Plus, we have $2,500 on the wheel. Sparkly.
Prize Round (R2): Phrase
_ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
You know who goes first this round. It's Shuntel.
Shuntel
Well, Double Play could be something. It's nothing as she duds with T.
Joe
Already, the big money. He misses out on $2500 with no N.
Markette
$500: Two R's
Wooops. You slipped with a missed C.
Shuntel
$400: Three S's
Double Play: One L
*DP* $300 x2: Two M's
Four E's
SURPRISE: One Y
One A
Going for the solve...
S _ M E
A S S E M _ L Y
R E _ _ _ R E _
Oh yeah, she gets it! For $1900 and a SURPRISE, Shuntel solves the famous line, "SOME ASSEMBLY REQUIRED". The SURPRISE is a trip to D.C. and a stay at the Loews L'Enfant Plaza Hotel, at a price of $5240.
After Round Two:
Markette: $3,600
Shuntel: $7,240 *D.C. TRIP*
Joe: There's no losing on a game show
As we get ready for round three, I'll tell that there isn't losing on a game show, but there is getting overexcited and fainting. Let's hope that doesn't happen here (spoiler: it doesn't).
Round 3: Person
_ _ _ / _ _ _
_ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _
Joe
$700: Two N's
For Joe, luck is not going his way today. He BANKRUPTED near the pink $500.
Markette
Almost the same BANKRUPT, but she duds out with an R.
Shuntel
The wheel likes nobody now, as Shuntel LATs.
Joe
$550: One S
You said buy an E? It'll cost you 250 bucks and your turn, as there's no E's.
Markette
You see it, you like it, you want it, you don't got it. There's no T's either.
This is basically the Dud Round, so we'll speed it up.
Shuntel BANKRUPTs, Joe duds on L, Markette duds on D, Shuntel gets $400 and 2 M's, two A's, and repeats the D on the COMPUTER wedge, and Joe duds on F.
Markette
$900: One C
One O
$250: One P (almost got buzzed out)
$800: One B
Going for the solve... (finally)
B _ _ / M A N
O N / C A M P _ S
Finally, the dud round ends! For $1700, Markette solves BIG MAN ON CAMPUS, but she isn't a man, she's a woman.
After Round Three
Markette: $5,300
Shuntel: $7,140 *D.C. TRIP*
Joe: Getting worried...
Why not add a prize? It's a marked MALIBU, with a price of $6,000.
Prize Round (R4): Before and After
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ / &
_ _ _ _
Markette
$350: One N
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ / &
_ _ _ N
DING DING DING DING
All those duds wasted our time, our final spin is worth $800.
Markette: R, C, no M
Shuntel: S, G, 2 W's (SHIRT CAP & GOWN is not right)
Joe: P, no L, H, going for the solve...
S H _ W _ R
C _ P / &
G _ W N
He's on the board! For $1600, Joe solves SHOWER CAP & GOWN, but that's all he's going to get...
Final Tally
Markette: $5,300
Shuntel: $7,140 *D.C. TRIP AND VICTORY*
Joe: $1,600
Total Earnings: $14,040
Bankrupt Trash: $1,650
----------------------------------------------------------
Shuntel has proven herself worthy to win. Now she has a choice.
_ _ E E L
Shuntel takes the second E.
Bonus Round: Thing
_ _ _ _-_ _ _ _
_ _ _
Let's add RSTLNE...
_ _ R T-T _ _ E
_ _ _
She wants to add CMBO...
_ _ R T-T _ M E
_ O B
She wanted a PART-TIME JOB... and she got one! She solves it for the prize from the second E- a theme park adventure! She would stay at WDW's Dolphin Resort and will wear some Fred Joaillier watches with Mickey Mouse made from 18-karat gold and steel, worth $17,568! In total, she won $24,708! Her dad and grandma come to greet her.
Well, wasn't that a good ending to the show. Well, now that I'm back, I'll start making more recaps under this format.
