S19, EPISODE #3627: SWEETHEARTS WEEK (VEGAS)
Airdate: 2/12/02
Go!
Wendy says HONEY, I'M HOME.
Tuseday's Vegas couples:
Britain "Britt" & Wendy Benson: Married over 16 years with 2 kids.
Go!
Brian's team has more than A CUP OF QUARTERS.
GIFT TAG FOR THIS ROAD TRIP: SOUTHWEST
This would've fit Natalie perfectly but it's Marcia that solves SINGERS AND DANCERS.
DUDS: T (Carsons), H (Bensons)
1ST PRIZE ADDED TO WHEEL: SOUTHWEST trip to Chateau Lemoyne in N.O. ($4,405)
JACKPOT ROUND
SPONSOR: Eggland's Best
I no-lettered this one thanks to the theme.
PERFECTION! Wendy solves YOU MAY KISS THE BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN to keep the trip. If you see puzzles like these, please remember that Harry Friedman has approval on all puzzle used in this show.
LEFT BEHIND IN POT: $7,850
We see Vanna at a Blackjack Table. Every time she says "Hit me!", the cards reveal to say WHEEL.
2ND PRIZE ADDED TO WHEEL: trip to Merv Griffin's Beverly Hilton + Thibiant Day Spa (marked SPA), $7,260
It was either a B, P or a D for Blue's dud. I'm going to say it was P.
Natalie's team will probably be RELAXING IN THE JACUZZI after this game.
DUDS: S (Carsons), M (Bensons), P (Bernards)
LOSE A TURN: Bernards
BANKRUPT: Bensons
We see pics of the couples as newlyweds prior to commercial.
The category isn't Toss-Up, Pat.
Go!
The Carsons don't have an answer ready.
After a bit of a delay from the blue team, John solves A BIG TIPPER.
DING DING! DING DING!
FINAL SPIN: $1,600
Brian solves COLLECTOR PLATES. It turns out that the Bernards had the answer a second after the buzzer, which would've given them the win by $95. Darn.
DUD: N (Carsons)
FINAL SCORES
WINNINGS SO FAR: $25,505
BANKRUPT TRASH: $1,000
BONUS ROUND
SPACE SPUN (Wendy): B
RSTLNE gives 2 N's:
Wipe is a heart & arrow.
FGCO gives two C's...
And INCH BY INCH, this couple's $25,000 richer! The kids (Luika and Adam) join the celebration.
FINAL TOTAL FOR BRITT/WENDY: $35,455 ($30,050 and the N.O. trip)
Now isn't this sweet - Britt and Wendy won a whole lotta money and now they're kissing off screen! You'd think they would afford a room...
Credits shown on a billboard. Also, Pat & Vanna pose like that winning married couple.
OVERALL THOUGHTS: A rather fine episode to go through. Maybe it wasn't that high-scoring, but it's entertaining enough to score a 7/10.
