Happy to be here today:
Steve Sterner: Piano player for silent movies, from New York
Gail Zarchen: Medical receptionist, from north Miami
Theresa Jordan (returning with a 2-day total of $61,650)
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is $1,000. Pat would like to say hello to a few people, but we gotta move on to our first puzzle:
Pat knows there's still more money to give away! Does Theresa know she has a chance to hit the $3,500 space?
Gail solves TO ERR IS HUMAN TO FORGIVE DIVINE. Pat chides the "purists" for how she pronounced ERR, but either way was good.
DING DING! DING DING!
We must shut off the lights soon, so Pat will give the Wheel a Final Spin. Consonants are worth... $300 a piece.

Surprise! He instantly solves KEYHOLE, not knowing how he did it...
...and we do know he has won the watches! It's a pair of Fred Joaillier his-and-hers Mickey Mouse watches, his with 18-karat gold, hers with a mother of pearl face, adding up to $16,250!
Steve finishes with $29,322, but can he amaze us tomorrow?
In the post-game, Pat says he was ready to give Steve the consolation speech. Luckily, he didn't need it at all.
