From the Las Vegas Hilton, it's America's game! This is Family Week!
Today's pairs:
Chris & Michelle (brother/sister): Chris works at a private golf club connected to the larger hotels. Michelle is an administrative law judge...known in the family as "Judge Dredd".
Deborah & Raquel (sisters): Singers with mariachi parties. Deborah is also a part-time waitress, while Raquel is a bilingual marketing rep. Both are from Universal City, TX.
Patti & Kaci (mother/daughter): Patti is a paralegal for an insurance defense firm, also raising miniature schnauzers. Kaci is a sophomore at the University of Nevada Las Vegas majoring in communications, and she models part-time. Both are from Las Vegas.
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is $1,000. You be the judge of how much "Big Money" that is, but we gotta start our first round, okay?
Patti & Kaci make up their minds and solve MOTHER & SILLY GOOSE.
Patti & Kaci solve BREAKING OFF THE LONGER END OF THE WISHBONE. They probably wish for more money, and there's a $3,000 Puzzler bonus available!
Total silence. With 6 seconds, they do not solve SUPERSTITION.
Chris & Michelle solve A PERFECT FIT TO BE TIED. Just a bit slow, and we're out of time.
BONUS ROUND:
RSTLNE gives them:
GBHI will definitely work.

We must add another prize to the Wheel for good luck. Here comes a holiday in Vanna's hometown at Myrtle Beach Hilton Oceanfront Golf Resort (labeled SOUTH CAROLINA) worth $8,200!
Patti & Kaci could try for more money than that! How about our $3,500 and Jackpot spaces?

That was a painful one for Deborah & Raquel. They deserve more after Round 2, but now they're stuck with the nice parting gifts.
BONUS ROUND:
Patti & Kaci got lucky with that last round. They may now play for a nice prize, maybe the Silverado, the silver bars, or the $25,000.
Patti reaches for the H, and they stare at this puzzle:

They simply read what's on the board...
...and they're taking the Chevy Silverado 4x4 worth $32,418! Patti & Kaci leave with a total of $41,018 in cash and truck!
In the post-game, Vanna says that tomorrow is Thanksgiving...except in cities where there's football as Pat notes, in the time zone- ah, whatever. Happy Thanksgiving.
