Airdate: October 12, 1998
From Sony Pictures Studio, it's America's game! Welcome to $hopping $pree Week!
TODAY'$ $HOPPER$:
Tommy Secunda: Married, (couldn't quite get a description of what he does), San Antonio, TX
Brad Taylor: Single, general manager of racket club, Hattiesburg, MS
Perezza Daniels: Former flight attendant for 12 years, now a wife and mother, Castle Rock, CO
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is $1,000. If you want bargains, even this could work in your favor. Bring on the first puzzle!
Tommy solves PREHISTORIC MAN OVERBOARD.
For coming, how about a complimentary prize? We have a Blockbuster gift certificate (labeled MOVIES) worth $2,500.
Prices sometimes go up, so the wedges go up. There is a $2,500 and one-third $10,000 space available in this round.
Perezza solves SELF-ADDRESSED STAMPED ENVELOPE.
Which one is most deserving of this prize? It's a trip to Boston and stay at the Royal Sonesta (labeled BOSTON) worth $3,500.
How much can they spend? Look at the $3,500 and Jackpot and then tell them.
Brad solves YOU BET YOUR SWEET BIPPY.
DING DING DING DING DING DING DING DING DING!
This is also the Puzzler Round! Who bets Brad can get this $3,000 bonus...
Well, he doesn't. The answer was GOLDIE HAWN.
Brad solves I BEFORE E EXCEPT AFTER C to keep the Boston trip.
Open late for another round.
DING DING! DING DING!
But not that late. Pat gives the Wheel a Final Spin. You'll find consonants at $250 a piece. Brad begins:
Brad: R (x2) ($500)
Perezza: N (x2) ($500)
Perezza guesses REPEAT WINNER. It fits the blanks, but it's not the answer.
Tommy: B (DUD!)
Brad: S (DUD!)
Perezza: W ($750)
Tommy: G (DUD!)
Brad: T (DUD!)
Perezza: D (DUD!)
Tommy: H (DUD!)
Brad: M (DUD!)
Perezza: L ($1,000)
Tommy: P (DUD!)
Brad: F (x2) ($1,000)
Tommy solves RAFFLE WINNER.
BONUS ROUND:
Zero to hero, Brad makes it to Bonus Land! No cars this week, though. Instead, we have plenty of shopping spree/trips:
Paris (about $17,000)
Rome (over $16,000)
Houston ($17,000)
Beverly Hills (over $27,000)
...or maybe you just want to spend $25,000 however you want!
Browsing for envelopes, Brad picks the W. Take a look at this puzzle:
RSTLNE gives him...
He picks out PDCO:
He gives a whopping ten guesses, but does not solve HAIRDO...
...so he can't go to Rome right now. Even so, he's going to be on a trip already, and he leaves with a total of $9,700.
