From Sony Pictures Studio, it's America's game! Startin' a Surfin' Safari this week!
Get a close look at this Toss-Up puzzle! Make sure not to wipe out!
Go!
Stormy solves A ROOM WITH A VIEW.
Lookin' for those spectacular views:
Stormy Lang: Mother of two, from Portage, IN (originally from Chicago)
Joel Sherman: Just graduated from Cal State Northridge, from Westlake Village, CA
Go!
Stormy solves PINK CARNATIONS.
Yeah, her arrow is close enough to pink, so she can start. That color would look great with a $10,000 prize, too.
Janette solves EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED.
Perfection! Joel solves PLYMOUTH ROCK PAPER SCISSORS and is obviously in the lead now. He plays a quick game with Pat, and they both pick paper.
How about if you called rock, paper, or scissors in the Mystery Round, then flip the wedge? That might be more interesting than just a BANKRUPT and a prize, though you'd still play for a Scion XA worth $13,973.
Double Perfection! Janette solves COCONUT SHRIMP WITH SWEET & SOUR ORANGE SAUCE for the cash and trip. Can she make room for a Prize Puzzle, room for a NWA World Vacations holiday in Hawaii with $1,000 spending cash worth $6,220?
Go!
Stormy solves MARCH MADNESS.
She can break her own Toss-Up diet with a $5,000 spin.
DING DING! DING DING!
They break their silence and sound the bells. Pat will give the Wheel a Final Spin, and consonants will be worth $450 + $1,000 for $1,450 a piece.
Janette: H (x2) ($5,000)
Stormy: S (DUD!)
Joel: G ($1,450)
Janette: P (x2) ($7,900)
Stormy: A (x2)
Joel: L (DUD!)
Janette: K (DUD!)
Stormy: Y ($1,450)
Joel: N ($2,900)
Janette solves UNDERWATER PHOTOGRAPHY just ahead of the buzzer.

Janette also has a Betty Boop tattoo just below her neck. Pat jokes that he can show his Bob Barker tattoo...but then Pat insists you don't want to see it.
You've got room in your pockets for some more Toss-Up money, don't you?

We may or may not expect Charlie to dress for surfing or a safari. Just as long as he can provide us a holiday at Hilton Waterfront Beach Resort in Huntington Beach (labeled CALIFORNIA) worth $6,075.
We certainly expect a Jackpot space on the Wheel, though hitting it on the first spin would be unexpected.

She has her husband, sister, and daughter-in-law in the audience!
Let's get a good picture of her grabbing the Bonus Wheel before she spins, then she'll land on the twin stars. She's got this puzzle:

She's silent and does not solve WIPEOUT...
...and while her result wasn't that bad, she still doesn't get the $50,000. Janette heads home with $33,095 in cash and trips.
In the post-game chat, Pat thinks about the Hawaii trip given away tonight. That's one of the show's favorite places, and it's also where the sport of modern surfing really got its start. Vanna used to surf when she was 15 years old, though the waves weren't as big as we usually picture in Hawaii.
Pat also likes Vanna's dress, which is "kind of a cross between Mary Poppins and Desperate Housewives".
