Lovely thought, Brian, but "I MAKE INSPIRATIONS" won't fit.

_ E S E R _ A T I O N S
Tracey rightly says, "I MADE RESERVATIONS to compete on Wheel."
This week's last three dinner guests include…
Tracey Augustine: Los Angeles, CA; chef for 22 years; enjoys making unusual ice cream flavors (such as avocado and smoked popcorn); wrote a novel about a chef who recalls her early years in the culinary industry
Lisa Hinshaw: Longview, TX; scheduled to compete on Teen Week four decades ago (Pat wasn't the host), but she was replaced by an alternate after she panicked and couldn't speak
Brian Moran: Chula Vista, CA; longtime softball player who has competed at several World Championships, not as serious about softball as she once was
Pat tells Tracey he once had mushroom ice cream, and she mentions that other "unusual" flavors include mustard and garlic. And Lisa's been waiting 40 years for this moment, so before the next round begins, Pat tells her opponents to "follow [her] lead."

To quote Pat, "40 years in the making, ladies and gentlemen! She solved the puzzle!" Pat says that if Lisa had done so as a teenager, she would just party. But now she'll really celebrate her vacation in the STUNNING TROPICAL SETTING of BARBADOS (The Club Barbados Resort & Spa, $8,680).
Pat claims Lisa set a Guinness World Record for the longest wait between rehearsal and winning a round.

CHAT: Pat and Vanna won't sample anything tonight because they're full, so they'll "diet over the weekend."
