From Hollywood, It's America's game! All together now for My Best Friend Week!
Today's teams:
Deanna & Jenny: Known since kindergarten and from Dayton, OH. Deanna is a junior at Evangelical Christian School who wants to be a teacher after college, from Cape Coral, FL. Jenny is still living in Dayton and is a junior at Miami Valley School.
Peyton & Clayton: Known for about 7 years now and are 10th graders at Conway High School in Arkansas. Peyton wants to own a sports business, while Clayton plays soccer and runs in track. Peyton hopes they don't kill each other.
Kristi & Shauna: Kristi is a junior at Nansemond River High School and V.P. of the student council association from Suffolk, VA. Shauna is a senior at Warren County High School from Littleton, NC and lives near Kristi's grandmother. Shauna also plans to attend the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill for a double major in accounting and public relations.
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is $1,000. We are playing for cash, and here's our first puzzle:
Kristi & Shauna solve DEPARTMENT STORE MANNEQUIN.
After pausing on the first word, Deanna & Jenny solve IT BOGGLES THE MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS.
It boggles the mind why we can have a full-sized $3,500 space but can't do the same with the $10,000 space. Why they do that is nobody's business.
Just to confirm, it's still Monday. Since it's late, Pat will give the Wheel a Final Spin, and consonants will be worth... $250 a piece. The reds will begin.
Deanna & Jenny: N (DUD!)
Peyton & Clayton: T ($250)
Kristi & Shauna: S ($250)
Deanna & Jenny: M ($250)
Peyton & Clayton: N (Repeat)
Kristi & Shauna: R (x2) ($750)
Deanna & Jenny: D (DUD!)
Peyton & Clayton: B (DUD!)
Kristi & Shauna: L (DUD!)
Deanna & Jenny: C ($500)
Peyton & Clayton: P (DUD!)
Kristi & Shauna solve GEOMETRIC FIGURES.
Well, then...it's almost time for Peyton & Clayton to do as they wish to each other, but not before we offer them the nice parting gifts.
BONUS ROUND:
RSTLNE gives them:

If the yellows feel like killing each other for that one, we're not looking at them. We're currently looking at a holiday at the Walt Disney World Dolphin in the Epcot Resort area (labeled TRIP) worth $6,788.
But if it does get ugly between them, who's gonna be able to spin for the $2,500 space?

Kristi & Shauna solve FIESTA COTTON ORANGE & SUGAR to take the trip and the lead. Even though they're ahead, we'll be nice and give them a $500 bonus if they can answer the clue.
They're both silent. That's a chance for Deanna & Jenny to catch up.
Jenny narrows the gap with the answer of Bowl (displayed as Bowls on the chyron).

BONUS ROUND:
It's funny how far Kristi & Shauna have come from such a small Round 1 total. They're now in Bonus Land, and they could win one of our best prizes!
One of them must walk over to the geometry that is the envelope holder, so Kristi will grab the W. Time to stare at another grid in front of them:
