Flashback to 1997, Pat jokes that people think they're a married couple, despite sharing many laughs and memories.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

David, please don't go STRETCHING MY LEGS.

Here are today's contestants!
David Livermore is from Garnet, MI, in the upper peninsula. They talk about the Yooper. He has two sons and two grandchildren. He lives in the lower half, which he also shows with his hand. He spent 20 years and eight months in the Army and retired four years ago. He also thanks Pat for his service.
Joyce Bolds is from Fayetteville, GA. She's married to Milton for 43 years. She has three adult children: Masud, Jannah, and Solomon, and a granddaughter. In 1996, she brought her 45 fifth graders to see the show on location in Atlanta. She wants to be a stand-up comedian when she grows up.
Dimple Shroff is from Sanford, FL. She married her college sweetheart 30 years ago. He was "outstanding" - he was out standing outside when she was studying. She's an architect/home designer. She's originally from India, and her first show she saw here was Wheel of Fortune!

Never realized how much this applied to more than a simple want.

I'm a little surprised there wasn't more theming in the puzzles to match the week's theme and Pat's finale, though you could say the bonus round went with the theme.

And ugh, the irony of the bonus round result

Hopefully the rest of the week goes better.

Maggie's sentiment was very nice, but I'd rather have traditional Pat and Vanna chats at the end.

Here we go… Pat’s last week…

Well, the beginning was decent, with a nice match between all three contestants. Good thing Joyce took a deep breath before she solved Round 1, and I wrongly thought DIP would trip Dimple up (cool name, by the way).

David made things interesting with his enthusiasm and talk about Michigan. If he’d chosen the B in the Bonus Round, he might have won $40K.

I hope I watch the entirety of Maggie’s interview with her dad before the season ends.

My rating: 6

So Maggie was the guest that Pat mentioned would have appeared at the end? See, I watch online and they usually cut out the closing, so I think I'm missing some big things this week making the eps I'm watching look just like a normal week of WOF.

well I was shouting (in surprise in excitement) in my house when I saw everything. they really did a number and he really stuck it to you thanks for the memories. (I thought they were going to do something but I thought it would be more softly pushed on you like the first week (I hope I am getting it right) in May. rather than in your face) though I can tell they were reusing the New Year's set though I am shocked how they got so many chandeliers up there. problem is it makes it look almost funeral like with the colour scheme instead of the celebration of his career that this is supposed to be. still I enjoyed everything and was excited when I saw everything put together.
