Airdate: February 12, 1998
From the Las Vegas Hilton, it's America's game!
Playing the cards today...
Joanna Knowles: Studying education, hopes to be a 3rd-grade English teacher, from Las Vegas
Chris Patrician: Transportation coordinator for a limousine company, aspiring actor, from Las Vegas (originally from Cleveland, OH)
Quentin "Q" Cox: Senior at the Air Force academy majoring in management, works with kids, Wichita, KS
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is $1,000. Green for what you might just win here. Our first puzzle:
Chris solves DON JOHNSON AS NASH BRIDGES.
A free prize is offered to the first who can get to it: A Yamaha XT225 motorcycle (labeled BIKE) worth $4,349.
Up go the stakes with the $2,500 and one-third $10,000 spaces!
Q solves KNOW WHEN TO HOLD 'EM KNOW WHEN TO FOLD 'EM.
Those sounds from the audience that sound like booing? They're actually shouting "Q" to cheer him on.
Somebody's gonna hit the Jackpot, but will it be in this game? Will the $3,500 also help them here?
Q solves BEFORE & AFTER-DINNER DRINK.
A silver lining for a gambler like Joanna from the $5,000 space!
DING DING! DING DING!
With time short, Pat must toy with this little roulette by giving it a Final Spin...it's $900 a piece.
Q: D ($1,750)
Joanna: L (DUD!)
Chris: H (DUD!)
Q: C (DUD!)
Joanna: R (DUD!)
Chris: P (DUD!)
Q: E (x4) ($1,750)
Q solves WEEKEND GETAWAY.
As a consequence for Joanna busting, she will take home only some nice parting gifts.
BONUS ROUND:
We still have some nice prizes available in Bonus Land, including:
Regal 2150 Sportboat (over $26,000)
1998 Chevrolet Corvette (over $40,000)
Colorado houseboat vacation and 2100 Sportboat (over $29,000)
Extra chips to cash in... (for $25,000)
Q defies the odds no matter what by following with the first E. Will the final puzzle play nice?
RSTLNE gives him...
Q cues DCMA:
Though it's still not enough for him to solve CASHEW...
...so goodbye $25,000. He still leaves with $11,899 in cash and prizes.
