Look at this studio filled with fabulous bonus prizes including:
A deluxe motor coach!
A $50,000 annuity!
A pair of his-and-hers Buicks!
Plus thousands of dollars in cash!
Over $23,000 just waiting to be won as we continue Family Week on...
Wheel of Fortune!
Today's groups:
Kellie & Mary Ann (daughter/mother): Both are from Deerfield Beach, FL. Kellie is a high school senior, while Mary owns a dental laboratory in Pompano Beach.
Art & Marla (brother/sister): Art owns a pizza restaurant in Dana Point, CA. Marla is a mother of one. They are originally from New Jersey.
David & Meredith (husband/wife): They are from Prairie Village, KS, and they are parents of one. David is an advertising executive, and Meredith is a dental hygienist.
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is $1,000. We are playing for cash, and here's our first puzzle:
David & Meredith solve POLICE LIEUTENANT COLUMBO.
Art & Marla solve HAS A FEW SCREWS LOOSE to keep the window.
We could tighten up the Wheel...but then we wouldn't be able to spin, and we'd have no game. Can we still set the arrow to the $3,500 space without spinning?
Art & Marla solve GREG MORRIS THE CAT.
DING DING! DING DING!
Someone's getting fired for that delay. Since we're out of time, Pat will give the Wheel a Final Spin, and consonants will be worth... $800 a piece.
Art & Marla: N (x2) ($1,600)
David & Meredith: D ($800)
Kellie & Mary Ann: R ($800)
Art & Marla: T ($2,400)
David & Meredith: H ($1,600)
