but MOLD LIGHTING is wrong. Teresa is in right after with the right answer of MOOD LIGHTING for $2,000!
ROUND 1 - $10,000 ROUND:
The golden "Oreo" wedge is on the wheel, so let's see if someone can nab it!
_ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _
PHRASE
Teresa begins the spinning with three T's... but there's only one Oreo wedge for her to pick up! No spendable cash yet, so she must go again and hit a $400 R. She plugs away at this puzzle, finding consonants and buying vowels, until...
T H E / P _ _ T U R E
O _ / H E A _ T H
PHRASE
she solves THE PICTURE OF HEALTH, which describes her total - this round gets her $1,300 plus the $10,000 prize!
PERFECT ROUND!
Susan: just a mis-solved toss-up
Teresa: $13,300
Nick: $1,000
ROUND 2 - JACKPOT ROUND & PRIZE PUZZLE:
The Midas Jackpot is on the wheel, plus tonight's featured prize:
it's a trip to the Green Valley Spa & Resort in Utah (courtesy of spafinder.com) valued at $7,500!
Also, it's a Prize Puzzle this round!
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
PERSON (PP)
Nick will kick it off this time with $450 for each of three R's. A couple spins later, he hits the Jackpot wedge with $6,350 in it... but there's no N. Susan gets her first spin of the night and she too hits the Jackpot - and she too duds a letter, the S. Teresa again takes over, buying out all the vowels, and picking up a 24-Hour Fitness gift tag with a pair of P's - but then she becomes the night's first BANKRUPT victim. Nick gets it back with $2,900 in the bank, and his first spin of the new turn hits the SPA prize with a W! After a final $400 D, he will try to solve:
A M A T E U R
W I L D L I _ E
P H O T O _ R A P H E R
PERSON (PP)
and an AMATEUR WILDLIFE PHOTOGRAPHER is the person we wanted - $3,300 plus that spa prize... and it's a Prize Puzzle:

_ _ _ _ _ _
BEFORE & AFTER
Susan gets her second chance at the wheel by starting this round, and she finds her first cash of the game - $300 (former home of the Free Spin) for a pair of N's. She gets up a lot of letters (although the big dollar amounts mostly elude her)...
_ O W L I N G
L E _ G _ E
O F / W O _ E N
_ O T E _ _
BEFORE & AFTER

PERFECT ROUND!
Susan: $3,650
Teresa: $13,300
Nick: $19,340 cash and trips
$3,000 TOSS-UP:

SHOW BIZ
Susan tries her luck...
C E L E B R I T Y

but CELEBRITY HOSTS isn't it - she's blown a second toss-up. Nick just beats the last letter:
C E L E B R I T Y
R O A S _
SHOW BIZ
and solves CELEBRITY ROAST for another $3,000!
Susan: $3,650
Teresa: $13,300
Nick: $22,340 cash and trips
ROUND 4 (Partial Speedup):
_ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _
ON THE MENU
Still time left after the two perfect rounds, so Nick will give it a spin... and what a spin - $5,000! But painfully, there's not a single R among the 17 letters of this puzzle. Susan will go for it again, and she finds the glittery goodness too - and there are two N's for her! She buys and E and duds the T, which runs us out of time. Here's the speedup board before Pat spins:
_ _ _ _ N / _ _ _ _ _ E N
_ _ _ _ _
ON THE MENU
Pat's spin makes it right back around to $500, so all consonants are worth $1,500 from here on. Teresa gets two S's up but no solve, which means Nick can put up a solitary L...
_ S _ _ N / _ _ _ _ _ E N
S _ L _ _
ON THE MENU
and solve ASIAN CHICKEN SALAD for $1,500 more!
Duds (pre-speedup): R (Nick), T (Susan)
Susan: $3,650
Teresa: $13,300
Nick: $23,840 cash and trips
He took two toss-ups and two regular rounds - now Nick has a chance to win the Bonus Round too!
BONUS ROUND:
Nick's spin hits the third 0 (the one after the comma) in $100,000.
_ _ _ _ _
THING
RSTLNE give him just 20% of the puzzle...
_ L _ _ _
THING
CPDO gets him another 20%...
_ L _ _ P
THING
Nick's only guesses are CLASP and TULIP, neither of which works with the used letters. Instead, it was BLIMP that denies him a Lexus IS 300. Still, he has nothing to be ashamed of - $23,840 altogether with the cash and two spa trips!
