Airdate: June 4, 1998
From Sony Pictures Studio, it's America's game! Welcome to Summer In The City Week!
Today's residents:
Joel Manon: Software developer, has two children, is from Springfield, PA
Ayesha Jones: Studying English and adult reading tutor at San Diego State University, graduating this semester, La Mesa, CA
Joy Hale: Married, works for cardiologist, Winchester Center, CT
(Note that the source video has constant audio problems, so I might not be able to catch everything.)
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is $1,000 for what Pat acknowledges is a busy crowd. Here's our first puzzle to keep them working:
(Aired) Perfection! Joel solves COCOA BEACH FLORIDA.
Bright as the sun is this Suzuki motor scooter (labeled SCOOTER) worth $3,149.
The $2,500 probably wants some shade, but the one-third $10,000 space loves the sun.
Joel solves BOGEY PUTTER SAND TRAPS. One shot for a $2,000 bonus by telling us where we are...
Birdie! It's a golf course.
They could use a sunshine break. But the $3,500 and Jackpot are tempting! The light shines on in this round...
Perfection! Joy solves EXCLAMATION POINT ME IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION to keep the Surprise: It's a trip to the British Isles worth $6,750!
In some cities, you need a $5,000 space to scratch the surface. We've got it here!
Joy solves HUGE GLASS OF ICED TEA.
Another round before the sun sets...
DING DING! DING DING!
Which appears to be very soon, so Pat will give the Wheel a Final Spin. Consonants get you $250 a piece. Ayesha starts.
Ayesha: S (x2) ($500)
Joy: N ($250)
Joel: H (DUD!)
Ayesha: R ($750)
Joy: P ($500)
Joel: M (DUD!)
Ayesha: T ($1,000)
Ayesha solves SEA SERPENT for her only handful of money.
As Ayesha mentioned she was also a hat collector in her interview, each of these contestants gets a black Wheel of Fortune baseball cap.
BONUS ROUND:
Somebody is jumping for joy in Bonus Land.
EEEEEEEEEEEE! She picks the second one. How will she react to this bonus puzzle?
RSTLNE gives her...
Hold on to your hats as Joy picks CMPO:
She does not solve OUT AND ABOUT. Two E's in the holders and she got beaten by vowel overload...
...so she just lost the convertible. Joy finishes tonight with $12,550.
