Airdate: September 2, 1988
Look at this studio filled with glamorous prizes! Fabulous merchandise including:
An $11,000 compact car!
An almost 4-karat diamond ring!
An off-road motorcycle!
Over $81,000 just waiting to be won on...
Wheel of Fortune!
Today's contestants:
Chuck Hilbert (returning with a 1-day total of $24,779)
Sharyn Goldman: Cheerleading coach at a junior high school, from Bethesda, MD
Carol Welch: Program assistant for "a major government" (everyone laughs), and she says hi to everyone at N.I.O.S.H.; from Cincinnati, OH
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is $750. Try not to hit Bankrupt, or you will lose all your cash, but once you buy a "niosh", it's yours to keep. Here's our first puzzle!
Chuck reads what's on the board.
We've added more money to the Wheel including a $1,000 space so you don't fly into a rage.
Sharyn just solves THAT OLD BLACK MAGIC.
Time for more of that old Wheel magic. How about we make a $2,000 space appear? How about if we "magically" bump that Jackpot to $3,000?
DING DING! DING DING!
After nearly breaking his arm, Pat will give the Wheel a Final Spin. Consonants are worth... $300 a piece.
Carol: G ($1,100)
Carol solves WHOLE GRAIN BREAD.

And somehow, the game went to the Bonus Round one commercial break too early for daytime. How are they gonna fix this?
BONUS ROUND:
It's Sharyn's turn to look at the bonus prizes! She's playing for...
Van Cleef & Arpels gift certificate featuring 3-row and 4-karat diamond ring ($11,000)

She whispers BURNING, but she can't solve BURNING DESIRE. Sharyn finishes with $1,600 today, but she's coming back.
This post-game is going to be different, because Pat and Vanna pay tribute to the late Jack Clark, who passed away in July (the tribute is taped shortly after his passing). Pat's about to tear up as he speaks, and Vanna is also about to tear up. One last photo of Jack is displayed.
The final commercial break airs before the credits, and "I Remember the Child" is used in place of the normal Wheel of Fortune theme.
(Recapper note: Updated with correct date.)
