WHEEL OF FORTUNE
AIRDATE: 9/16/87
EPISODE #781
Here are today's players!
Vera Pulley is from Forestville, MD. She's engaged and is planning to get married for this year. She's an office manager for a major meat packing an processing company (although when asked her favorite cut of meat, she admits she's more of a seafood woman). She was a former professional roller skater on a team called Wheels of Fortune.
Gary Delina is from Point Pleasant, NJ. His favorite cut of meat is chops. He's married with a little baby girl. He's a writer/comedian, but his mother thinks he's a dentist. He likes baseball and going to the beach
Ken Cook is a retired insurance agent. Nowadays, he likes model railroads, toy tin soldiers, and collecting figurines of famous people, like Napoleon or Winston Churchill or General Patton or Pat Sajak or Jack Clark. He's been married for 40 years. His son is over six feet tall and his daughter is a private secretary.
People does not always mean proper names.
Call that an RKO out of nowhere! Vera's like those WRESTLING SUPERSTARS - rolling in dough, $5,600 to be exact!
We've taken so long, we're going shopping during the commercial break. Here's the list of purchases in the order presented:
After that long prize copy, Jack's still got to talk, because we've got GOLD on the wheel. Specifically, 10 ounces from Bachus & Stratton worth $4,870!
With how this game is going, you might as well call Vera one of THE UNTOUCHABLES! We're going to the back to school showcase:
Time to add that $5,000 to the wheel!
DING-DING! DING-DING!
Well, that's kind of anticlimactic. Vowels worth nothing, consonants... Lose a Turn! ┬... $800 ┐
Gary: D ($3,100)
I HAVE TO DRAW THE LINE SOMEWHERE, and I'm kind of done with this episode.
oh wait shopping, in the garden.
yeah, we're so out of time, Pat's rushing the thanking of the losers, and coming back from break, Pat tells Vera she's playing for the car. It's a 1988 Chevrolet Beretta GT worth $15,750!
TRLSN E... give Vera about half the puzzle.
Vera whispers among herself, but can't say anything, not even in BROKEN ENGLISH. Still, $6,800 in prizes is a great payday.
End Chat: Pat found giant snail shells in the studio. Vanna notes that those are the biggest shells she's ever seen, despite spending many days at the beach. Pat jokes around that if you put your ears up to the shells, you can hear Merv Griffin. Vanna corroborates this, and Pat says he hears it's time to go.
