Regis and Kathie present to you...this puzzle! Can you solve this puzzle?
From Madison Square Garden in New York City, it's America's game!
The answer to the Preview puzzle was BROADWAY.
Today's contestants:
Romy Merrick: Graduate student at the College of Insurance, wants MBA in risk management, also teaches folklore dancing, from Ardsley
Nicole Thurman: Counselor for children in an afternoon program, from New York City
Pedro Delgado: Student in Union County College majoring in communications, also produces music, from Elizabeth, NJ
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is $1,000. If it's not green, it's free...although that might not be a good thing...but Round 1 begins:
Perfection! Romy solves THE HUDSON RIVER.
As an alternative to free, we can throw in another prize. Let's make it a FAO Schwarz gift certificate (labeled TOYS) worth $2,500.
You ask for quality, so we'll upgrade the dollars with a $2,500 and one-third $10,000 space.
Did I just hear a quack after Romy asked to solve the puzzle?! It can't be. It was probably just a chair or something.
Romy says PETER PIPER PICKED A PACK OF PICKLED PEPPERS (instead of PECK), but her answer is accepted anyway. I'm tangled on what to say for the $3,000 bonus, but we'll see afterwards.
Where she is right now, unfortunately. The answer is TONGUE TWISTER.
Let's add another quality prize. Our contestants might be interested in a stay as Foxwoods Resort & Casino (labeled RESORT) worth $5,054.
We still grab their attention with the $3,500 and Jackpot spaces anyway. We begin our next round:
Romy solves NYPD BLUE'S DENNIS FRANZ.
We tried too hard to grab attention. Now Pat must give the Wheel a Final Spin. Consonants are worth $5,000 + $1,000 for $6,000 a piece! Romy, are you listening?
Romy: T ($6,000)
Nicole: S (x3!) ($18,000)
Pedro: N ($6,000)
Romy: R ($12,000)
Nicole: M (DUD!)
Pedro: C ($12,000)
Romy: L ($18,000)
Romy SWEEPS THE GAME with KOSHER DELICATESSEN!
Put to the test, but only one survives. Nicole and Pedro each leave with some nice parting gifts.
BONUS ROUND:
Romy, the opening is your one chance. Don't mess this up! We have...
Chrysler 300M (over $31,000)
Lexus RX300 series (over $38,000)
Land Rover Discovery 2 (over $38,000)
Audi TT coupe (over $33,000)
"The cash" ($25,000)
She picks an envelope from the L. We now put her in the spotlight with this puzzle:
RSTLNE gives her...
She will take CMPO:
And before the timer starts, she solves FAMILY to COMPLETE THE SWEEP!
For her successful performance, she gets the Audi worth $33,925, and leaves with a great total of $60,575!
During the post-game, Pat and Vanna show off the flashing $25,000 envelope that Vanna now uses during the bonus prize copy. Pat throws a jab at Who Wants to Be a Millionaire immediately after.
