From Sony Pictures Studio, it's America's game! Our term in Washington, D.C. must come to a close...
...and we must sneak in some more puzzles before the end, Toss-Ups included.
Go!
Lashel solves I'M GLAD YOU ASKED.
We're glad these three are here!
Lashel Wilson: Training supervisor for a major shipping company, from Hampton, VA
Adam Delainey: Operations manager for a major flooring company, from San Diego, CA (born in Seattle)
Sharon Brown: Works in human resources as a major toy company, from Redondo Beach, CA (originally from Pennsville, NJ)
Go!
Lashel solves A STOREWIDE SALE.
This is the one and only Wheel of cash, maybe imitated but never duplicated, and Lashel can finally spin it!
Lashel solves EASTER EGG COLORING KIT.
Perfection! Sharon solves THE ROYAL TENENBAUMS for more cash and the home decorating prize.
Go!
Lashel solves A MOTHER BEAR.
Feeling protective, she never wants to let go of the Wheel! That's okay as long as she doesn't try to lift up the $5,000 space.
Sharon starts over to make sure she solves COMMEMORATIVE COINS. Pat would've done the same thing. "That's a hard thing to say."
DING DING! DING DING!
So this was our slowest day of the week. It feels early for Pat to give the Wheel a Final Spin, but consonants are worth $300 + $1,000 for $1,300 a piece.
Adam: W ($3,100)
Sharon: R (DUD!)
Lashel: D ($1,300)
Lashel solves NEW ENGLAND.
So not just the slowest day, but the only day of the week that someone was too slow to cash in. Adam takes home the nice parting gifts.
BONUS ROUND:

What harm is an extra decoration on top of an already colorful Wheel? Let's stick on a Kathy Ireland home furniture shopping spree (labeled DECORATING) worth $2,500.

Sharon solves IT'S THE SQUARE ROOT OF FORTY-NINE. Feels good to solve one puzzle, and feels better to take the lead with a $3,000 bonus by answering the clue!
She takes a few seconds, but she finally answers 7. "Sometimes, school seems so long ago, saying 'Please, don't miss this on national television!'"
(That number 7 looked so weird by itself on the chyron.)
Sharon | Lashel | Adam (FS) |
$6,900 | $6,400 |
We're more worried if Charlie messes up the prize copy on national television, but he's safe, and maybe you can "save" a holiday at the Capital Hilton in our nation's capital (labeled D.C.) worth $5,136.
And this is our round you might hear about if you don't save the $10,000 prize from trouble.

BONUS ROUND:
Whether or not we're back for a second term, we can still end this one in style! Sharon will walk to Bonus Land for a car or some cash! Can we finish with a $100,000 win?
Sharon wants it, but she must spin it on the Bonus Wheel! She won't know where it is, but she knows she stopped on the H in CASH, and she must know this puzzle.

...and we yawn to the reveal of the Toyota MR2 Spyder. Sharon's still smiling, because she goes home with $17,550 in cash and prizes.
In the post-game chat, Pat says that regular viewers of the show and people who know and care deeply about Vanna's life know she's had cats for years. After being catless for a couple of years, she now has a new cat named Sophie! Pat has some ideas when she's brought in like spinning her on the Wheel, but Vanna clearly isn't impressed.
