From Universal Studios Florida, it's America's game! This is Family Week! But it's no excuse for Pat to ask for another stunt double.
These six will stick to the Wheel.
Jonalyn & Joel (sister/brother): Jonalyn is a full-time mother and an accountant for an energy management company. Joel is a senior graphic designer for a local vacation ownership resort, plus a lead singer and guitarist for a local band (called Eden). Both are from Orlando.
Stephanie & Melanie (sisters): Stephanie is a mother of three, and Melanie is a mother of two. They are fans of Wheel and love the Las Vegas life.
Susan & Anna (mother/daughter): Susan is a mother of five, grandmother of five, and a teacher at West Orange High School. Anna is a Grade 5 teacher at Palmetto Elementary School.
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is $1,000. Try not to hit Bankrupt, though dancing around that space would be quite a stunt. Here's our first puzzle!
Perfection! Stephanie & Melanie solve THE GAME GOES INTO EXTRA INNINGS. Already a home run, but let's push it further with a $3,000 Puzzler!
Jonalyn & Joel solve AUTHORIZED PERSONNEL ONLY, and they have a good reason to party!
Looks like our party is almost over, so Pat will give the Wheel a Final Spin. Consonants are worth... $5,000 a piece! A tie score between red and blue?
Jonalyn & Joel: S (DUD!)
Stephanie & Melanie: C (DUD!)
Susan & Anna: T ($5,000)
Jonalyn & Joel: R (x2) ($10,000) (Stephanie calls L before yellow's turn.)
Stephanie & Melanie: L (DUD!)
Susan & Anna: N (x2) ($15,000)
Jonalyn & Joel: G (DUD!)
Stephanie & Melanie: H ($5,000)
Susan & Anna: M (DUD!)
Jonalyn & Joel: B (x3!) ($25,000)
Jonalyn & Joel solve A NEWBORN BABY RUTH for a blowout win!
BONUS ROUND:

Someone might feel like a snack after all that spinning, so it's time to add a Nabisco back-to-school snack party plus $2,000 in cash (labeled PARTY) adding up to $2,500. Wouldn't it be fun if Spyro the Dragon was your bus driver?
You could throw an even bigger snack party with a $2,500 space, a $10,000 prize, and a bigger puzzle!

This prize won't get you to a tie score by itself, but we still think you'd love a holiday at Merv's Wickenburg Inn Dude Ranch and Tennis Club (labeled DUDE RANCH) worth $6,158.
Really, you didn't come here to tie...did you? You came to win, and the $3,500 and Jackpot spaces will help you win.

Joel quickly blurts out BOYFRIEND...
...and they've just added the Dodge Durango (in an upside-down envelope) worth $33,505! Jonalyn & Joel are driving off with $73,505 in cash and prizes!
In the post-game chat, Vanna brings in Nicholas and his cousin Dylan. Vanna asks what their favorite ride at Universal was. They both pick the Nuthouse and E.T., and Pat sure thinks that kids says the darndest things.
