For the lonely man who's late for his meetup with the pizza man, it's America's game! Welcome to Live Like A Star week!
You'll have your first breakthrough in our first Toss-Up round!
Go!
Dianne solves ACTRESS EVA LONGORIA.
Our next stars of the week:
Dianne Swain: Hospital chaplain, also does some speaking and writing, and she has published; from North Little Rock, AR
Liz Locks: Practices real estate by day, writes and performs sketch and stand-up comedy by night; from Chicago, IL (originally from Johnstown, PA)
Greg Holmes: Technical support analyst, also does his own stand-up comedy; from Glendale, CA
Go!
Liz solves HERMIT CRAB.
Dianne solves LOCALLY GROWN COFFEE. She can have a sip after hearing about the prize she's won, a holiday at the Kauai Marriott Resort & Beach Club worth $5,829.
She's just short of five digits. Let's make sure our Jackpot can reach or exceed the $10K mark!
Liz solves BOB & ELIZABETH DOLE for the usual cash and Gift Tag.
Those Mystery Wedges aren't your usual prize wedges, and perhaps it's just as strange that one of them offers a $10,000 cash prize.
Greg reads what's on the board. If he wanted to spin again, Pat would have to threaten him with a tranquilizing dart.
Go!
Liz solves ALTO SAXOPHONE.
It's not over, yet! She's catching up to the leader, and we start another round.
DING DING! DING DING!
And since we have some of our own catching up to do, we'll politely ask Pat to give the Wheel a Final Spin. Consonants are worth $600 + $1,000 for $1,600 a piece. Liz begins.
Liz: R ($1,600)
Greg: T (x2) ($3,200)
Dianne: S (x3) ($4,800)
Liz: H (x4) ($8,000)
Liz says HIGH SCHOOL, but then finishes with SWEETHEARTS after the buzzer.
Greg: C ($4,800)
Greg solves HIGH SCHOOL SWEETHEARTS in its entirety.
BONUS ROUND:
RSTLNE gives her:
CMPO just gives her a vowel on the other side.

Speaking, writing, and publishing, but what about graphic design? We had to get our own staff to design the wedge for a trip to Las Vegas and stay at Caesars Palace with Forum Shops shopping spree (labeled LAS VEGAS) worth $5,500.

BONUS ROUND:
Dianne just hung on there. By the skin of her teeth, she's the one in Bonus Land to play for a car or cash up to $100,000.
She has her brother and husband in the audience!
Just as long as she doesn't skin her elbow on the Bonus Wheel when she gives it a spin. She hits the triple stars. Will this puzzle give us another close call?

She whispers ASH, but that won't work. She then says ASHLEY and possibly CUSTOM before cutting herself off. She does not solve BUSYBODY...
...and we're just too lazy to give her the Mini Cooper Convertible. Dianne goes home with $9,929 in cash and trip.
In the post-game chat, Pat reminds us that October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and to help out, Pat and Vanna will hand out pink ribbon pins to the audience. Proceeds from Wheel Watchers Club trips will be matched by AstraZeneca for breast cancer charities! Early detection saves lives, and in the US, there are over 2 million breast cancer survivors. Now to hand out some pins!
