From the Dodge Theatre in Phoenix, it's America's game!
One last day with the solo players, and it will start with this Toss-Up.
Go!
John only gets SPECTACULAR.

A spectacular trio today!
Tiffanie Tallman: Works for a Major League Baseball team and owns a 2001 World Series ring (even wearing it for luck), from Chandler
Jill Feathers: Waiter and freelance make-up artist, from Phoenix
John Gaw: Realtor and musician, also records music and does stand-up comedy, and he wants to be a talk show or game show host; from Chandler
Go!
John solves FLYING INSTRUCTOR.
Keep focused, and don't undershoot or overshoot the tiny $10,000 space! Your landing has to be just right!
Tiffanie solves OODLES OF NOODLES for the Gift Tag.
At least the audience can't spoil what's under each of the Mystery Wedges, but like the players, they can guess. We have a BANKRUPT and a Neiman Marcus gift certificate worth $10,000.
Tiffanie solves THE SHAPE OF THINGS TO COME, and great things have just come to her!
Go!
Tiffanie solves OUT-OF-STATE VISITORS.
We'll put a $5,000 space on the Wheel if you let Pat and Vanna stay here for another week.
DING DING! DING DING!
And now we're out of time, so Pat needs to give the Wheel a Final Spin. Consonants are worth $350 + $1,000 for $1,350 a piece.
Tiffanie: D (x2) ($5,650)
Perfection! Tiffanie solves THE PAINTED DESERT.

Tiffanie mixes up the last two words with OUTWIT OUTLAST OUTPLAY.
Jill solves OUTWIT OUTPLAY OUTLAST in the proper order. She didn't outdo herself this time, but a $3,000 bonus for telling us whose slogan it is would be outstanding!
While not audible on TV, an audience member shouted the answer. Because of that, the bonus will have to be thrown out. The answer was Survivor.

She could paint the town red, though there's already enough red on some of our bonus prizes. Anyhow, let's look:
Dodge Ram
Chrysler Sebring convertible
Turn up the cash ($25,000-$50,000)
...or crank it all the way! ($100,000!)
She has her husband and a friend in the audience!
Pat gives a few chants in front of the Bonus Wheel, and then Tiffanie will spin the U in BONUS. But Vanna won't get any of those chants.

In the post-game chat, Pat finds Vanna's necklace to be interesting. It's a turquoise and silver piece, and it's from the Heard Museum. It looks fabulous on her...but we have to send it back, or they'll come after us.
