Prize on the Wheel: Tonight's featured trip is to Athens *in Greece, for those who need more and more info*, brought to you by Collette Vacations, and airfare is providedby cheaptickets.com, the total value of the vacation is $5,500!



There's a blue glittery $2,500 wedge on the wheel and it's double the size as usual! Expanding six wedges, that wedge is from Maxwell House. Also on the wheel is a $10,000 wedge one sixth the size of the $2,500 wedge. Let's start things off with n appropriate category for the week, Show Biz.



Marilyn & Jacob will begin the round and it's a pretty good start by hitting $2,500 for two Ts! Marilyn will be taking the TicketsNow.com Gift Tag off the wheel with a triple R next and then she will spend a bit on the O. She'll hit the $400 next, but it's not good for an S. Anita will start her turn by grabbing the trip off the wheel with a triple N, followed by a $2,500 hit for a single L. Wrong order, Anita. She buys a vowel next, but it's so popular that it's already been called, the O. Suzette will call the last multiple of C and that gives her the Wild Card, but she'll hand it right back to Bankrupt...



Marilyn & Jacob then both want to solve, Marilyn will and she does solve CONCERT IN CENTRAL PARK for $4,750 and the Gift Tag!

Suzette & Robin:
Marilyn & Jacob: $8,750

Top Dollar Hits: 2
$10,000 Wedge Hits: 1



There's a new top dollar lurking on the wheel, but it's only half the size of $2,500. Also appearing is the silver Jackpot wedge, it increases with every spin of the wheel worth monies. Time to see some wordplay with Before & After.



Anita will try to redeem herself from that last round incident and she's off to a good start with a trio of Ts. She goes again, but there are no Ss to cash in on the blue $500. Over to Suzette and she repeats Anita's first spin of the round and she will receive three Rs followed by a pair of Hs for $800 more. She makes a purchase of O and then she duds with an N on the red $800. Jacob gives the wheel a strong spin and it pays off nicely with a duo of Ls for $7,000! Marilyn goes shopping for five As and a pair of Es. Jacob spins again and he's able to hit $3,500 again and Marilyn gets the G up there! They spin once more, but the C call leaves $10,000 on the table. Anita has another chance and she will grab the "25" Wedge off the wheel with an F, she will find a 25 month membership to Gold Gym under it! They spin twice more for the Ds and W for $900 & $900. She makes a purchase next... but it's a bad one, an I. Suzette's peg barely reaches Bankrupt, ut it does, so it's over to Marilyn...



Marilyn claims that $10,000 with HUMPTY DUMPTY HAD A GREAT FALL WARDROBE! Humpty probably did have one, too.

$3,500 remains on the wheel, but now three new wedges join the fun! First, the Big Money Wedge is on the wheel and it can be worth up to $25,000 at a moment's notice and secondly, the two mystery wedges are here, one can be worth $10,000! Things's the category for this third round and we all know that it's a "Prize" Puzzle.



Suzette starts the round and she immediately finds the triple T, followed by her next two spins escaping both mystery wedges for a pair of Hs & Rs. Next, she buys the Es and then avoids the Big Money Wedge housing a Bankrupt. She calls the Ns and then hits both orange wedges for an L & a D. Then she buys the quadruple O and then escapes Bankrupt for a P. Suzette cleans us out of the vowels...



They decide to solve it right there and then, TIKI TORCHES AROUND THE POOL for $4,800 and they'll see some of those in Hawaii! That's a vacation valued at $6,300.

Suzette & Robin: $11,100
Marilyn & Jacob: $18,750

So far, Marilyn as collected $28,150 for herself & Jacob has that for his charity! Now they'll spin the Bonus Wheel for $100,000...



Jacob does the Bonus Wheel spinning and their fate lies with the 1 envelope. Now the team must solve a Phrase.



Beginning with RSTLNE, they can use all the help they can get.



That draws the end spaces' attention. Now they'll go for a few more letters, Marilyn picks FHDO.



Those are good letters... but only one letter can be shown. They might *miraculously* figure this out. Can they pull a miracle solve?



Not even a guess. They didn't have much to work with and they couldn't add this to their winnings...



That car, the Mercedes! Marilyn & Jacob won't be receive that but they do have $28,150 in cash & prizes, Jacob has that for charity.
