The top-dollar value on the Wheel is $1,000. We are playing for cash, and here's our first puzzle:




Kathryn solves CAMPAIGN PROMISES.

Perfection! Gary solves GEORGIA ON MY MIND BY RAY CHARLES. He actually apologized before solving, but Pat tells him not to worry.

---

We're not sorry that Jennifer plenty of time to try and hit the $5,000 space on the Wheel! She wants some big money, we're sure!




Double (and major) perfection! Jennifer solves SHARON BLARNEY & ROLLING STONE. "Would it be okay if we post-dated that a little bit? Nah, that's alright. We're fine. We're covered."

---

We still have some money remaining! We also have another puzzle, and it's Kathryn's turn.
