Airdate: May 8, 1992
From Walt Disney World, it's America's most watched game show! Wheeeeeel Of Fortune!
Today's contestants:
Florence Williams: Married, is a histologist supervisor, also a part-time real-estate broker, Houston, TX
Duncan Jones: Air-traffic controller, has a pilot's license, is from Ithaca, NY
Shane O'Donnell (Returning with a 1-day total of $49,850, all cash)
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is $1,000. We are playing for cash, and we have a feature puzzle board presentation for you:
Shane solves NATURALIZED AMERICAN CITIZEN.
Since Shane's last name is the same as that of announcer Charlie, Pat makes a little joke about family.
It just feels natural to set up for a prize here. We have Royal Doulton dinnerware (labeled PICNIC) worth $4,248.
We'll cover the basics and then some with a $2,500 space right here.
Shane solves ARMY RANK NEXT ABOVE CAPTAIN. The clue could lead him to the $500 bonus.
He guesses Lieutenant. How about Florence?
She says Colonel. It's up to Duncan.
The $500 goes to him with a correct answer of Major.
No sidetracking allowed. Go for that $3,500 space!
Perfection! Shane solves HOT BUTTERED POPCORN.
Grab some as we present a prize. We give the Wheel a Bitter End Yacht Club Virgin Island cruise (labeled TRIP) worth $6,444.
And now, the $5,000 space shines! Round 4 is coming up:
Duncan solves SARA & PEGGY LEE.
Thanks to Shane for much earlier, we have time for a fifth round:
DING DING! DING DING!
The week must end soon. Pat gives the Wheel a Final Spin, and consonants are worth...for the second night in a row, $5,000 a piece!
Shane: E ($1,750)
Florence: S (Repeat)
Duncan: W ($5,250)
Duncan solves WHAT'S NOT TO LIKE.
Question answered. Florence is stuck with some nice parting gifts.
BONUS ROUND:
There's only one prize left. Can Shane claim it?
...unsurprisingly, he picks the H. He's also stuck with this puzzle:
RSTLNE gives him...
His choices of GKMI lead to...
...collapse.
Huh? He instantly solves BUENO for a perfect Bonus Round week!
He wins a trip to Amsterdam and Brussels worth $18,000, he's now up to $77,950, and he has one more show to go!
