From Sony Pictures Studio, it's America's game! We spend one more night in the Great Outdoors.
When you're stuck on that stage, what else can you do but play along? Someone will start by solving this Toss-Up.
Go!
Tom solves THE SKY'S THE LIMIT.
Reaching for the sky in front of Pat:
Tom Bonicord: Stay-at-home father of four, from Sandy Hook, CT
Debra Beth Tobin: Part-time public speaking teacher, also a Christmas tree farmer (from her father) and wreath maker, and she operates a humane society foster home; from Lincolnton, NC
Jill Haig: Resource teacher, also a successful matchmaker for three couples; from North Kingstown, RI
Go!
Jill solves CHUCK E. CHEESE.
A grown-up can be a kid by spinning that Wheel. We can imagine what a kid would do if they won the $10,000 prize.
Tom solves TRISCUITS WHEAT THINS & RITZ CRACKERS.
All too crunchy for us to hear the prize copy. It's really important to learn about a Star Clippers Caribbean vacation on their romantic sailing vessel (labeled OUTDOORS) worth $7,490.
Jill solves FORMER BEATLE SIR PAUL MCCARTNEY. She'll be amazed that it's a Prize Puzzle, and she'll love a NWA World Vacations holiday in Great Britain including Edinburgh, with $1,000 spending cash, a prize worth $6,550.
Let live, or let die? We'll find out in the Mystery Round when someone flips one of our wedges. They'll find a BANKRUPT, or they'll find a Hyundai Accent worth $12,204.
Tom solves REFRIGERATE AFTER OPENING NIGHT.
Go!
Jill says MUSEUM CONDUCTOR.
Debra solves MUSEUM CURATOR for some money.
She's out of the freezer and wants to be a hot player! We've got a $5,000 space for an aspiring champ!
Perfection! Debra solves ENDANGERED SPECIES.
DING DING! DING DING!
It's been a fun week, but we must end soon, and Pat will have to give the Wheel a Final Spin. Consonants are worth $550 + $1,000 for $1,550 a piece.
Tom: L (x2) ($4,400)
Tom solves SATELLITE RADIO and just barely takes the win!
BONUS ROUND:
Closing night is tonight, and Tom must finish strong by winning a car or cash up to $100,000.

We'll finish the week with MCDO...
...and he's done for.
He says WORKHORSE and HORSESHOE. He does not solve GIRAFFE...
...so the $25,000 remains out of reach. Tom leaves us with $11,450 in cash.
In the post-game chat, Pat and Vanna are discussing, and Pat insists there's no R in the word "sherbet". Vanna asks about the difference between that and sorbet, and sherbet has some milk, while sorbet has none. What about gelato? But really, do we have to do over every dessert? Soon, we'll talk about Popsicles.
