From Hollywood, It's America's game! Another week of the Red, White & Blue Sweepstakes starts now!
Today's contestants (all male):
Gary Newman: Candy buyer (and one of the top three in the country), from Clifton, NJ

Nathan Nemik (returning with a 2-day total of $45,350)
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is $1,000. We are playing for cash, and here's our first puzzle:
Gary solves BRUCE WILLIS.
And no, the contestants won't be covering said admission if they hit the $3,500 space. Let's just get to our Red, White & Blue puzzle and forget about that last round.
Pat's also forced to do things like give the Wheel a Final Spin earlier than expected. Consonants are worth... $250 a piece. Gary starts.

Dennis: S (DUD!)
Nathan: R (x2) ($500)
Gary: N ($250)
Dennis: L (x2) ($500)

Gary | Dennis | Nathan |
$1,000 |
So much masculinity in the studio right now, and Charlie might just add to it when he announces a Lunt Silversmiths Paul Revere Sterling tea service (labeled SILVER) worth $6,500.
One of these three might be strong enough to lift that $2,500 space off the Wheel, but we might break something.

Nathan solves ? EYES ? IN THE GRASS ? CHARMER. His eyes are on the puzzle, because there's a $500 bonus for filling in the blank.
However, Pat's eyes are on the audience, because at least one person shouted the answer. The blank was snake, and we have to throw the bonus out. (Nathan also said the answer on the buzzer.)
By the way, we're thinking that at least one audience member's admission just got a little pricier because of this.

Pat: As a game show host, you're forced to do odd things like go "Yes! German occupation of Paris!"
A lot to think about, but the home viewer should really be thinking about this puzzle right now.

$3,550 | $550 |
Dennis was out to lunch during that third round, and a bad vowel earlier certainly didn't help. He now leaves with some nice parting gifts.
Nathan leaves with a 3-day total of $45,900.
BONUS ROUND:
Time to grow that score into something bigger in Bonus Land! We have a car, a boat, some art, a savings bond, and the $25,000!
A fresh new set of envelopes is ready, and Gary will take the H. A fresh puzzle is also ready.

In the post-game chat, Vanna reminds the home viewer to enter the Sweepstakes. If there were an Emmy award for "reading of the rules", Pat would be up for it this season.
