From Hollywood, it's America's game! The end of Family Week is near, but Christmas is almost over too...
Today's finalist teams:
Ben & Bunnie (Returning with a total of $75,514!)
Donna & Michele (Returning with a total of $37,130)
Betty & Rebecca (Returning with a total of $38,696)
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is $1,000. We are playing for cash, but the first puzzle can't wait much longer!
Perfection! Ben & Bunnie solves OH WHAT FUN IT IS TO RIDE IN BLANK. The next part will get them a $500 bonus.
They complete it with a one-horse open sleigh.
Inside is a little surprise...a Geo Tracker convertible worth $15,065!
For an ever growing wish list, maybe this? We add a Jamestown curio clock (labeled CLOCK) worth $4,229.
Another option comes courtesy of the $2,500 space.
Ben & Bunnie solve ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY.
Stepping up is the $3,500 space. It wants to meet up with somebody in this round:
Ben & Bunnie solve TO FETCH HER POOR DOG A BONE to keep the clock. Can they fetch a second $500 bonus?
Of course. It's Old Mother Hubbard.
Like a magnet. Maybe they'll also claim a Monterey travel trailer (labeled TRAILER) worth $11,953. (The Wheel could be heard spun to its proper position for the prize.)
Betty & Rebecca solve VEGETABLE BEEF SOUP.
Still enough time for a fifth round:
DING DING! DING DING!
Despite that, Pat will give the Wheel a Final Spin. Consonants are worth...$900 a piece. Yellow begins this time:
Donna & Michele: N (DUD!)
Betty & Rebecca: T ($900)
Ben & Bunnie: L ($900)
Donna & Michele: F (DUD!)
Betty & Rebecca: K (DUD!)
Ben & Bunnie: S (x2) ($2,700)
Ben & Bunnie solve LET ME GUESS.
Donna & Michele leave with $37,130. Betty & Rebecca leave with $41,996.
BONUS ROUND:
At the end of Round 3, Ben & Bunnie already reached six digits!
Pat just opens the last remaining envelope to reveal $25,000. This puzzle will be the one:
They will put hope in CDMO:
With two seconds left, they solve BABY POWDER for a perfect Bonus Round week!
This gives them the $25,000 and a final total of $130,708!
The Wheel and Jeopardy! video games are plugged before the post-game, while the board game is plugged after.
Ben & Bunnie are also presented with the coveted Wheel of Fortune Family of the Year 1992 Bowl!
Meanwhile, Vanna pulls a present from under the tree and gives it to Pat, who gives her $3 so she can buy something. The present is a book by Jack Paar.
