From Walt Disney World, It's America's game! 30 minutes left of My Favorite Teacher before pencils down!
Today's finalists:
Alan & John (returning with a total of $34,204)
Luann & Rhonda (returning with a total of $36,450)
Noah & Martin (returning with a total of $46,166)
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is $1,000. We are playing for cash, and here's our first puzzle:
Luann & Rhonda solve JODIE FOSTER.
Perfection! Luann & Rhonda solve TO MARKET TO MARKET TO BUY A FAT PIG.
How fat of a pig would Noah & Martin be able to buy after a $3,500 spin? With this puzzle, probably not as much as from the not-so-fat $10,000 space.
It's back to the Wheel for Alan & John to land on a $5,000 space.
DING DING! DING DING!
Oh, yeah. We still have a bell, don't we? This is to remind them that Pat must give the Wheel a Final Spin, and consonants are worth... $350 a piece.
Luann & Rhonda: L ($4,350)
Luann & Rhonda solve EXPERTS IN THE FIELD for the technical sweep!

Even for finalists, these Wheel prizes are just for one. It's strange to think about if that prize happens to be a pair of Klein Fervor bicycles (labeled BIKES) worth $3,320.
Time for a much better round, and $2,500 would be a much better spin!

Luann & Rhonda solve RICE PASTA & BEANS. Perhaps they should pay for some more balanced meals after winning $500 for answering the clue.
Luann thinks it's baked. What are Noah & Martin thinking of?
Martin guesses Italian food. One more shot with Alan & John.
Alan says starches, and it's acceptable. The intended answer is carbohydrates. Pat jokes they'll also accept "Denny's side dishes".

We're going to take things in a different direction on our last day of the week. Luann & Rhonda can play for the New York trips or the Piggy Bank annuity.
Luann picks the annuity without hesitation, so let's quickly get to the puzzle.

They instantly solve PARTY ANIMAL for the RBP Piggy Bank Annuity with two $100 a month payments followed after six years by two lump sums of $10,000, adding up to $34,400!
Luann & Rhonda leave with a grand total of $85,400 in cash and prizes!
In the post-game chat, Vanna is impressed by how much was given away this week. It's even more than it appears because the main game cash is doubled. The show has given away $258,795 in cash and prizes this week alone! "Yikes! Where do we get that kind of dough?"
