Airdate: February 19, 1997
From the Blockbuster Desert Sky Pavilion in Phoenix, it's America's Game! This is Family Week!
Today's teams:
Diane & Cheryl (identical sisters): Diane is an accountant (who forgot her husband's a horse trainer, not a bookkeeper) from Casper, WY. Cheryl is an executive assistant and amateur hypnotist from Los Angeles, CA.
Jerry & Debby (father/daughter): Jerry is an independent sales rep from Arizona. Debby is a lawyer practicing in Phoenix but living in Tempe. Both are from Scranton, PA.
David & Kevin (brothers): David is a former radio announcer and now an account manager for a major financial services corporation. Kevin is a soon-to-be college student hoping to go to Glendale Community College. They're both from PHOENIX!
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is $1,000, which we probably won't confuse with the sparklies later on. Let's get to our first puzzle:
Jerry & Debby solve PETER AND THE WOLF to keep the surprise. Are you ready for this? It's a Wurlitzer 1015 CD jukebox worth $8,916!
Perfection! Jerry & Debby solve I KNOW A GOOD THING WHEN I SEE IT to keep the trailer.
After waiting and waiting, the addition of the $3,500 and Jackpot spaces could be a good thing for the blue team.
Jerry & Debby solve LONDON BRIDGE OVER LAKE HAVASU.
We've crossed over to Speed-Up time, so Pat will give the Wheel a Final Spin. Consonants are worth... $250 a piece. The sisters will begin.
Diane & Cheryl: D (DUD!)
Jerry & Debby: R ($250)
David & Kevin: T ($250)
Diane & Cheryl: H ($250) (Jerry tries to call M before his turn.)
Jerry & Debby: M (DUD!)
David & Kevin: N (DUD!)
Diane & Cheryl: S ($500)
Jerry & Debby: L (x2) ($750)
Jerry says THE PILLSBURY DOUGH-BOY, but then changes to THE PILLSBURY BAKE-OFF ...just after the buzzer.
David & Kevin: P ($500)
David & Kevin solve THE PILLSBURY BAKE-OFF on time.
BONUS ROUND:
RSTLNE gives them:
GCMA are pretty helpful.

6-year annuity ($20,000)

And after the last A is revealed, Jerry solves LANGUAGE...
...and we finally give away the annuity, a 6-year from Thomas Group that matures to $20,000! Jerry & Debby finish with $51,273 and are certainly returning on Friday!
"We finally did it!" Pat and Vanna are happy to have given away a bonus prize. Unless all three of tomorrow's teams beat this final score tomorrow, the pair should be back on Friday.
