Charlie: “From Hollywood, it's the Wheel of Fortune! America's most popular game show. And now the world's! Here they are soaring into your lives, Pat Sajak and Vanna White!”
Introductions:
George Lindley - From Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. He's the champ with winnings totalling $14,400 dollars from yesterday's show. George is also going to school.
Anne Link - From Western Springs, Illinois. She's a medical technologist. In her spare time she enjoys making crafts, she watches baseball, likes to bicycle and loves to travel.

PHRASE
George won the game yesterday, and won the right in a draw backstage to start the game today.
SPIN 1- And George's first spin will land on $400 dollars. He calls a T, and there's one.
SPIN 2- This time it's going to be the minimum value, $150 dollars. He wants an L, but there aren't any. Anne spins.
SPIN 3- Anne's first spin is going to hit $250. She calls an N, and three will light up. $750 dollars.
SPIN 4- But that $750 won't last for long, Anne hits the Bankrupt. It's all David now.
SPIN 5- David just passes the pink $1000, and lands on the other side, where he'll find a free spin! He calls an S. And there's one. David gets the Free spin, and gets to spin again.
SPIN 6- This time it's the yellow $500 before the thousand dollar space. David calls a V, and there happen to be two V's in this particular puzzle. David has some cash now. $1000 dollars + Free Spin.
SPIN 7- David's spin makes almost one full rotation and lands on the purple $400. He calls an H, and there is an H. $1400 dollars + Free Spin.
David feels he's spun enough. He'll solve.

ROUND TWO
Moving right on to round two, there's a $2500 dollar space on the wheel, and a prize is also sitting out there. Charlie describes.
Charlie: “Feel the magic of Sedona. Bask in sunshine at the world renowned Los Abrigados Resort & Spa, located in picturesque Sedona, Arizona. Capture the ambiance surrounding this first class resort, with a ride on the Verde River canyon excursion trail. $3,260 dollars!”
Pat says: “Los Abrigados. That's Spanish for the Abrigados.” The prize is marked Arizona on the Wheel.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
MEGAWORD
Pat tells us: “Please do not adjust your set. That does say Megaword! Megaword is not a new Mighty Morphin Power Ranger, it's actually a new category here at Wheel of Fortune.”
Pat explains to the players that there is a challenging word up there (In more ways than one), and that players will fill in letters and solve the puzzle as usual, and if whoever solves the puzzle can use the word correctly in the sentence, they win an extra $500 dollars.
Pat ends his explanation by exasperatingly saying “Isn't this fun?! It's going to be great.” (Fun indeed Pat, fun indeed.)
And “Mega-Anne” gets to start this round.
SPIN 1- It's the pink $250 to start. Anne calls a T. There's one. $250 dollars.
SPIN 2- Anne spins, and this time it's going to be that trip to Arizona! Anne needs to find a letter to pick it up. She calls an S. No S. David gets to spin.
SPIN 3- David goes just past the Bankrupt and lands on the orange $350. He calls an N. No N. George spins.
SPIN 4- George will land on the red $400 right before that Arizona trip. And he hopes to find an L. Nope, no L. It's time for Anne to spin.
SPIN 5- Anne just passes the Bankrupt and lands on the orange $350. She wants an R this time. And we found one. $600 dollars for Anne.
SPIN 6- And it's going to be $800 dollars this time. And she calls a D. And there's none. Over to David.
SPIN 7- David's flipper will just graze that $2500 dollar space and land on the $500 dollars before it. He's looking for a C. But there's no C. It's back to George.
SPIN 8- The spin will land on $400 dollars. George hopes for an M, and he'll get one. That's $400 dollars to start.
SPIN 9- George will pass the Surprise and land on the pink $700. He's looking for a P, and one will be uncovered. He has $1100 dollars. He buys an A. But his $250 won't do him much good, as there aren't any A's. He has $850 dollars now, and Anne will get to spin the wheel.
SPIN 10- Anne lands on $200 and wants a G. No G's. Back to David.
SPIN 11- David lands on that Arizona trip! He calls a K. No can do. Once again, David will spin. At this point, Pat exclaims “It's megaaaaword!” as George goes to spin.
SPIN 12- George will land on $400 and call a B. And there's also no B. That means it's Anne's turn.
SPIN 13- And with this many spins it was bound to happen, Anne lands on a Bankrupt. That wipes out her $600 dollars, and David gets to spin.
SPIN 14- David lands on $800 dollars and calls a Z. Obviously, (*rolls eyes*) there's one Z. And that means David has $800 dollars.
SPIN 15- And he'll land on $800 again. He calls an X. Yeah, there's an X. That one was a gimme though. David doubled his total to $1600 dollars.
BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP
Only vowels remain in this word. David will mega-solve.
_ X T _ M P _ R _ Z _
MEGAWORD
David will solve the Megaword EXTEMPORIZE for $1600 mega-dollars!
David will earn $500 additional dollars for using EXTEMPORIZE correctly in a sentence.
David says: “If I were to speak off the cuff, I would be Extemporizing with you."
And Pat yells out as loud as he can “You did it, David!! Megaaaword!!!” That brings David's winnings for the round to $2100 dollars.
Duds: S (Anne), N (David), L (George), D (Anne), C (David), G (Anne), K (David), B (George)
Bankrupt: Anne ($600)
George - Nothing today so far
Anne - Not a penny
David - $3500 + Free Spin
ROUND THREE
A big $3500 dollar cash wedge is on the wheel.

It's the newer variant of Fill in the Blank. $500 additional dollars for finding the word that fits into those question marks after the puzzle has been solved. It's round three, David will spin.
SPIN 1- And it's going to be $900 for the first spin of the round. David calls an N. And there are some N's. Two to be exact. $1800 dollars.
SPIN 2- This time, it's the $500 before Bankrupt. He calls a T, and there are three T's! That's $1500 more. $3300 now. David will buy an A. There's four of 'em. Still $3050 in the bank.
SPIN 3- This spin will almost make a full rotation to land on $400 dollars. David wants an R this time, and there's one... two... three R's! That's $4250 dollars.
SPIN 4- Once again, almost a full rotation, and it lands on $250 dollars. David calls a C. One. $4500 dollars. He'll buy an O, and he gets some help with three O's. $4250.
SPIN 5- It's going to be that $250 again. He wants a Y. There's a Y. $4500 dollars once again. And he'll buy another vowel. An A this time. And there's a couple of those. $4250 remains.
SPIN 6- And it's going to pass the Arizona trip and land on the red $800 before Lose a Turn. He calls an S. And he'll find a pair of S's. $5850 dollars total.
Only a few unfilled spaces, and David knows it. He will solve.
