Airdate: May 7, 1999
From Philadelphia's Apollo of Temple, it's America's game!
Today's contestants:
Jon Carty: Married, is the district manager for auto glass replacement, from Souderton
Shaina Vattis (?): Has two children, is a city bus driver, from Mount Airy
Abby Robbins: Part of a therapeutic support team for children and families, from Bensalem
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is $1,000, which may leave the competition jealous. Here's our first puzzle!
Shaina solves EATING A PHILLY CHEESESTEAK. She can score a $3,000 bonus if she gets this related puzzle:
She does not solve TRADITION, but she still has her $2,400. Pat asks the Friedman to order him and Vanna some...you guessed it, Cheesesteaks.
How 'bout a prize? Add a trip to the Grand Cause Beach Club in St. Martin (labeled BEACH) worth $4,180.
The $2,500 may also spread envy, but not like the one-third $10,000 space!
Shaina solves IT HELPS THE MEDICINE GO DOWN SINGS MARY POPPINS. She has another chance at a bonus, so can she get $2,000 for answering to the clue?
...she misses again with water. The answer is a spoonful of sugar.
How 'bout a prize...again? This one is a Rowe Nostalgia Home Jukebox (labeled JUKEBOX) worth $6,870.
The competition may blush if you hit $3,500 or claim the Jackpot in this round:
JACKPOT! Jon solves KURT RUSSELL & GOLDIE HAWN to snatch the $6,300 pot!
Typical for a road show that we don't have that much time left. Because of this, Pat will spin the Wheel for a value of...$300. Jon will begin:
Jon: S (x3) ($900)
Shaina: T ($300)
Abby: L ($300)
Jon: A (x3) ($900)
Shaina: R (x2) ($900)
Abby: C ($600)
Abby solves SPIRAL STAIRCASE. Not much, but it's better than nothing.
BONUS ROUND:
It's Friday, but there are still three prizes remaining in Bonus Land:
Porsche (over $54,000)
Jeep (over $36,000)
"The cash" (exactly $25,000)
Jon takes the H, and is given this puzzle in return:
RSTLNE gives him...
MCPA only provides something obvious...
Although he comes close with THAT'S GOOD (which still fits), he does not solve THAT'S IFFY.
Believe it or not, the puzzle itself gets booed by the Philadelphia audience!
Jon loses $25,000, but he's still got $6,900 (and possibly the satisfaction of claiming most of it from the Jackpot).
And we close with Pat and Vanna each have fun EATING A PHILLY CHEESESTEAK of their own before saying goodbye.
