Airdate: July 17, 2003
Today's contestants:
Matt Ng
Dave Higgins (returning with $1,380 in prizes)
Jacquie Ashworth
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is 750, and here's our first puzzle.
Jacquie says TALENT SCOUT...then HALL on the buzzer. She solved it just in time!
How long would Jacquie think about a Mystery flip? We have two spaces, and one is a BANKRUPT, but one is a holiday at the Marriott Singapore Hotel!
The top-dollar value is increased to 1,500.
How could we top all that in this round?
RRRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNGGGG!
With Jacquie around, this wasn't too out of the ordinary. Rob will give the Wheel a spin, and consonants are worth 1,500!
Jacquie: R (x2) (3,965)
Matt: H (Lucky H!) (3,200)
Dave: C (DUD!)
Jacquie: W (5,465)
Matt: I (x2) (3,200)
The top-dollar value is now 2,500!
Matt: T (DUD!)
Dave: S (220)
Jacquie: L (x2) (5,685)
Matt: N (x2) (220)
Dave: R (x2) (440)
BONUS ROUND:
At least Jacquie already had the win, so now she just has to win one of our major prizes, and it might be a Renault Clio Expression worth $22,500.
With 8,535, Jacquie quickly earns six consonants and a vowel. The Golden Wheel spins, and lands on...
Rent-A-Yacht Whitsunday Islands cruise ($4,634)
That could take her over $10,000 if she solves this puzzle:
TNSRDL, and A gives her less than she hoped.
Australia's favourite game, Wheel of Fortune!
Only two days left in the $100,000 Cash Call Competition!

She might have a talent for scaring us. We have a talent for awarding prizes such as a Coinwatch timepiece, a Reader's Digest book collection, and an Omni DVD home theatre system.
Jacquie will have the DVD system.

WHERE ARE WE? |
Matt solves READING BOOKS WHISPERS. He won't need to whisper when he answers the clue for 200 more.
He takes the money with library.
Now, it's time to quiet down for these prizes. We have to tell Matt about a ceramic glass grill, a Bosch power tools set, or a bagless Dyson vacuum cleaner.
Matt wants the power tools.

THING |
Rob will give the Wheel a spin. Consonants are worth... Lose A Turn!
And that was ordinary, so Rob will try again. Consonants are worth 220, and Matt starts.

THING |
Jacquie says DRIVER'S LICENCE before catching herself, but she already gave an answer. She's laughing about her mistake.
Matt immediately solves LEARNER'S LICENCE.
He passed his test for one more prize, and we're ready to give him a baby products collection, a Fitness Generation treadmill, or a Coffex coffee package.
Matt ends with the coffee package.

The consolation prizes are a Minolta Zoom 70 camera and Parker pens.
All contestants receive the Wheel of Fortune board game.
Dave leaves with the $1,380 in prizes he won before.
BONUS ROUND:
At least Jacquie already had the win, so now she just has to win one of our major prizes, and it might be a Renault Clio Expression worth $22,500.
She would really love to add a $14,300 cash Jackpot with that car!
With 8,535, Jacquie quickly earns six consonants and a vowel. The Golden Wheel spins, and lands on...
Rent-A-Yacht Whitsunday Islands cruise ($4,634)
That could take her over $10,000 if she solves this puzzle:

Early on, she says TO BE ON TO SCRATCH and TO GO. Ouch! It was TO BE UP TO SCRATCH, and she had the hard part. Jacquie still has $5,764, and she could win again tomorrow to add to her score!
