From Hollywood, it's America's most watched game show! Wheeeeeel Of Fortune!
Over $140,000 given away so far this week!
Today's contestants:
Daisy Jones: Grade 1, 2, and 3 teacher; from Philadelphia, PA
Paul Allen: Support specialist for a computer repair service, from Gurnee, IL
Kim Colvert (returning with a 1-day total of $8,900)
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is $1,000. We are playing for cash, and here's our first puzzle:
Kim solves AN OFFER YOU CAN'T REFUSE.
Daisy solves CORNED BEEF HASH to keep the trip.
As delicious as the $3,500 space looks, all we ask is that you spin. It doesn't actually taste that good.
Paul solves IT ALL BOILS DOWN TO THIS.
Oh, we still have plenty of time. We move on after adding an Eagle Summit DL 4-door sedan (labeled CAR) worth $11,772.
Kim solves RADICAL DEPARTURE.
DING DING! DING DING!
After some strange timing, it's up to Pat to give the Wheel a Final Spin. Consonants will be worth... $500 a piece.

Kim: B (x2) ($1,000)
Kim solves BASEBALL GLOVE.
BONUS ROUND:
