Can you solve this little hint of the past? We're looking for...
Look at this studio full of fabulous prizes! So much waiting to be won during Retro Week tonight on...
Wheel of Fortune!
The answer to the Preview puzzle was IT'S SHOWTIME.
Today's contestants:
Jill Pate: Simultaneous mother and student in Pacific Lutheran University, majoring in bio-chemistry, Tacoma, WA
Brad Peeler: Accountant with an advertising agency, former mascot, Laguna Beach, CA (originally from Winston Salem, NC)
Ed Lang: Married, is a congregation minister, Tacoma, WA
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is $1,000. We are playing for cash, and here's our first puzzle:
Brad solves I THINK I LOVE YOU BY THE PARTRIDGE FAMILY. Can he claim the $3,000 bonus in a short time for a short puzzler?
He beats the buzzer with KEITH.
We add a special Shopping wedge to the Wheel. If you win it, you can pick one of:
Home entertainment package (over $6,600)
Outdoor package (over $9,900)
One-week trip to Paris (over $5,900)
Don't forget about cash; we have the $2,500 and one-third $10,000 spaces available in this round!
Perfection! Brad solves A DIAMOND IS FOREVER. He can treasure the memory of correctly identifying who says it for a $3,000 bonus.
...or not. He comes close with Zales, but the answer was De Beers.
One of our prizes is a Living room and Sony entertainment package worth $6,627. You might choose it as part of our other Shopping wedge we've placed on the Wheel!
For those who still want the cash, we have the $3,500 and Jackpot ready for you!
Brad solves BOGOTA COLOMBIA.
We won't do that Tiffany thing this time around, but Pat must give the Wheel a Final Spin, and consonants are worth $5,000 + $1,000 for $6,000 a piece! Everyone is still in this:
Jill: T (DUD!)
Brad: R (x2) ($12,000)
Ed: N (x2) ($12,000)
Jill: S (x2) ($12,000)
Brad: D (DUD!)
Ed: Y ($18,000)
Jill: O ($12,000)
Brad: M ($18,000)
Ed: V ($24,000)
Jill: A ($12,000)
Brad: E (x4) ($18,000)
Brad solves SCREEN & MONEY-SAVER for THE SWEEP!
And what did the city of Tacoma do to deserve this?! Nothing. But it happened anyway, so Jill and Ed leave with some nice parting gifts.
BONUS ROUND:
As Brad tries to keep a low profile so KOMO 4 doesn't call him out, he could win...
Restored 1965 Mustang convertible ($20,000)
Route 66 trip (over $15,000)
2000 Beetle GLS 2-door (over $21,000)
Harley-Davidson motorcycle (over $15,000)
"Good ol' American cash" ($25,000)
But...he must pick an envelope. It will be the H, and this will be the puzzle:
RSTLNE gives him...
Brad might have an idea with PIWD:
Right after the last called letter is revealed, he solves PILLOW to COMPLETE THE SWEEP!
He wins the 66 Trip worth $15,398, and leaves with a total of $41,348!
