From Sony Pictures Studio, It's America's game! Wheeeeeel Of Fortune!
Today's contestants (all female):
Wendy Sveen: Bank teller, also studying full-time and plans to become a teacher for deaf children; from Portland
Doreen Parker (returning with a 1-day total of $10,100)
Accacia Green: Mother and full-time student at Cal State Bakersfield studying to be a biology major
Accacia solves GOOD MORNING AMERICA.
In "the first round of the rest of our lives", Accacia's score can just keep on growing with the $3,500 space, the $10,000 prize, and a puzzle big enough that this round will last a lifetime.
(Sort of) Perfection! Accacia solves IS THERE A DOCTOR IN THE HOUSE OF PANCAKES and will now hear about the Surprise. It's a trip to Burgundy and Paris aboard a luxury barge with meals and tours, a prize worth $11,440!
We have some surprise difficulty for both Wendy and Doreen. One of them must now hit the $5,000 space and possibly grab a trip to NEVADA.
Accacia solves NORTH & SOUTH CAROLINA for a houseboating vacation in Nevada worth $5,795.
The good news for Doreen is that we have time for another round.
DING DING! DING DING!
Whoops! Pat must give the Wheel a Final Spin. Consonants are worth... $500 a piece. Maybe if Accacia was just a bit stronger...
Accacia: R (x3) ($1,500)
Wendy: L ($500) (Doreen calls N before her turn.)
Doreen: N (DUD!)
Accacia: J ($2,000)
Accacia solves JEWELRY APPRAISER.
BONUS ROUND:
RSTLNE gives her:
CDMI fills in the bottom word.

The top-dollar value on the Wheel is $1,000. We are playing for...wait- "It kind of has a pep rally feel to it here! It's nice! They're pulling for people. It could get ugly before it's over."
We are playing for cash, and here's our first puzzle:

BONUS ROUND:
Accacia is a big winner "by a mile", but she won't stop here! It's time to win a nice prize, maybe one of two cars or the $25,000.
It's time to pick an envelope, and Accacia wants the middle E. Now for the puzzle:

...and it was the $25,000. That's okay, as Accacia already has $30,085 in cash and prizes, and she's coming back!
In the post-game chat, Pat asks Vanna not to think of him as rude or ungallant. Pat noticed a zipper in the oddest spot of Vanna's shirt. Would she drive in the summer with her top down? Well, that's a lovely thought.
