Look at this studio filled with glamorous and imaginative gifts! Fabulous merchandise including...
A 7-day Bermuda holiday
A $21,000 ram's head pin
A $15,000 RX7
Over $118,000 just waiting to be won on...
Wheel Of Fortune!
Today's contestants:
Jo Ann Schmitz: 3rd and 4th grade teacher, Elk River, MN
Rusti Gardena (female): Enters baking and cooking contests, and also a "strawberry blonde" contest, Oxnard, CA
Fritz Stewart: Student at Stanford University learning music and mathematical sciences, Olympia, WA
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is $1,000. Try not to hit Bankrupt, or you will lose all your cash, but once you buy a prize, it's yours to keep. Here's our first puzzle!
Rusti solves MICKEY ROONEY.
We pull a prize out of a dark closet, and boy is it happy. We show you a Gucci furnished pair of jumbo heart earrings (labeled JEWEL) worth $2,700. Maybe a light at the end of the tunnel?
Fritz solves VITAMINS AND MINERALS.
For a truly healthy total, consider the $5,000 space! Try to hit it in this round!
DING DING! DING DING!
Rusti must be nervous with that money on the line. Pat gives the Wheel a Final Spin, and he sets consonants to...$5,000 a piece!
Fritz: G (DUD!)
Jo Ann: H (DUD!)
Rusti: J ($10,250)
Rusti solves PRACTICAL JOKER!
(After a commercial break...)
An odd combination that worked against Jo Ann. She'll take home the nice parting gifts.
BONUS ROUND:
It's time for Rusti to try for another big prize. She wants...
Tiffany furnished 18-karat gold and platinum ram's head pin ($21,250).
The final puzzle is...
The letters that may help her are the common TSRNLE:
She talks for a bit, and eventually solves STETHOSCOPE to keep the pin! A nice total of $32,800 for Rusti!
