From Sony Pictures Studio, It's America's game! Wheeeeeel Of Fortune!
Today's contestants (all female):
Accacia Green (returning with a total of $30,085)
Marie Genova: Insurance supervisor for a doctor's office, from New Milford, CT
Monica Robinson: Supervisor for the state of Texas, from Fort Worth (she also says hello to her boss Mike as well as her family who could and couldn't come, but she only has so much time).
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is $1,000. We are playing for cash, and here's our first puzzle:
Monica solves I'M OVER MY CREDIT CARD LIMIT. She's very excited! Pat never laid a hand on her.
Monica solves WORLD FIGURE-SKATING CHAMPIONS. Another Surprise, and this time it's a North Carolina golfing vacation at Grove Park Inn Resort in Asheville, plus Fila golf clubs, a prize worth $5,450!
It's no surprise that Monica wants to keep going, and the $3,500 space wants her to do so. Will she dare approach the one-third $10,000 space?
Perfection! Monica solves BEAUTY IS ONLY SKIN-DEEP DARK SECRET to keep the gold!
DING DING! DING DING!
Accacia: C (DUD!)
Marie: N (x2) ($500)
Marie stops the sweep and solves VIENNA AUSTRIA.
BONUS ROUND:

Of course Accacia has to be on the receiving end this time. She still knows about the $5,000 space, but in addition...
"...we have a space marked CUSTER. I have no idea why. If someone wins it, we'll explain it."

DING DING! DING DING!
(Accacia asked to buy the second vowel just before the bells.)
What is it with us and the bell? Anyway, Pat will give the Wheel a Final Spin, and consonants will be worth... CUSTER.
Don't ask. It can't be won now. Pat will just spin again, and consonants will be worth... $250 a piece.

Accacia's still happy with the $30,085 she won earlier.
BONUS ROUND:
Monica's now the one in this position. We need to award a bonus prize, and it could be a car, some art, a trip, or the $25,000.
All five letters remain in play! Monica picks the L, and she must solve this puzzle:

She can't think of anything, and she does not solve TOBOGGAN...
...meaning the convertible slips away. "That was it!" Monica did want that, but she still has $27,250 and is coming back tomorrow.
