Harriet (FS) | Robert | Shelly |
$2,100 |
It's a battle for attention between a puzzle solver or our upcoming prize: a pair of Jules Jurgensen gold watches, his a pocket with calendar and second hand, hers quartz with 1 karat of diamonds (labeled WATCHES) worth $5,485.
But neither of them will be able to grab the attention that the $2,500 space can get.

Robert was going to say that contestants were so dumb...and looked at the wrong arrow on his first spin. He politely asks "Miss Vanna" for an H, but it's not up there.
