Airdate: February 18, 2004
From the Dodge Theatre in Phoenix, it's America's game!
Be sure about once you buzz in, because there's no changing your mind about it!
Go!
Ken solves WORLD WIDE WEB.
Searching for contestants...
Ken Partoza: Air Force Veteran, now a purchasing specialist for a health care provider; from Phoenix
Korbee Harman: Cook at a local hotel, from Mesa
Rochelle Bryant (audience pick!): From Mesa (a snowbird from Quincy, IL)
Go!
Korbee solves HOW NOW BROWN COW.
So how does Rochelle address this problem? By blowing the others out of the water with a $10,000 win! If she gets a turn, that is.
Double Perfection! Rochelle solves IT'S RIGHT ON THE TIP OF MY TONGUE for the cash and golf prize!
It should be easy enough for Ken to decide on a Mystery flip. He'll take a chance with a BANKRUPT there, but he'll catch up with a Neiman Marcus gift certificate worth $10,000.
TRIPLE Perfection! Ken solves SUNS DIAMONDBACKS COYOTES & CARDINALS to catch up a little.
Go!
Ken solves ACAPULCO MEXICO.
He'll now take the Wheel, and he'll try to take what he can from the $5,000 space.
DING DING! DING DING!
And we took too much time. Pat will give the Wheel a Final Spin, and consonants will be worth $600 + $1,000 for $1,600 a piece.
Ken: H ($3,200)
Korbee: S ($1,600)
Rochelle: N (x2) ($3,200)
Ken: D (x2) ($6,400)
Ken solves SMOKEY AND THE BANDIT.
BONUS ROUND:
Great scores all around, but Rochelle is just barely the victor! Now to finish with a car or cash up to $100,000.

It's getting really hot where Charlie is, but he's still coherent enough to plug a set of Mars Golf Clubs featuring Bird Driver with flame graphics, M4 tour irons, and Rocket carry bag, plus a GEM electric golf cart (labeled GOLF) worth $8,956.
We'll now be turning up the temperature for that Jackpot value!

It's not like the Free Spin would be of any use based on how they all played.
BONUS ROUND:
Great scores all around, but Rochelle is just barely the victor! Now to finish with a car or cash up to $100,000.
She has her husband and two friends from Illinois in the audience!
She'll be taking one more spin! The Bonus Wheel stops at the purple space, and this is her puzzle.

She's silent and does not solve DAYBREAK...
...and we can't give her the $30,000 at the end of the day. Rochelle still goes home with $21,606 in cash and prizes!
In the post-game chat, Pat says it's a tough spot to come out of the audience and play that well. She had a good main game.
