Airdate: Late 1986
Look at this studio filled with glamorous and imaginative gifts! Fabulous merchandise including...
An $11,000 4-door sedan
A pair of $3,200 cultured pearl earclips
A holiday for two in Hong Kong
Plus a $4,000 Jackpot!
Over $82,000 just waiting to be won on...
Wheel Of Fortune!
Today's contestants:
Dean Rod: Piano teacher
Kathy Barrera (?) (returning with a total of $8,000 in prizes)
Karen Egan: Legal secretary for a small law firm in Phoenix, is from Chandler, AZ
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is $750. Try not to hit Bankrupt, or you will lose all your cash, but once you buy a prize, it's yours to keep.
Kathy solves IN CONCLUSION.
That was just a start. Now let's haul in the $1,000 space.
Perfection! Kathy solves RUNNING SMOOTHLY.
Okay, how did she manage to avoid both duds of A and E? That was amazing.
Going smoothly right now, but we'll let Karen try again. There's a $2,000 space and Jackpot waiting!
Kathy solves GLORIA VANDERBILT.
Just enough time despite some tricky puzzles, and Pat gives the Wheel a Final Spin. We play for a Gucci gift certificate, and consonants are worth...$2,000 a piece! Dean gets a good shot.
Dean: R ($2,000)
He's already guessing, with ASTRONOMER.
Kathy: T ($2,000)
Karen: S (DUD!)
Dean: L (DUD!)
Kathy: E (x2) ($2,000)
Karen: C (DUD!)
Dean: N (DUD!)
Kathy: M (DUD!)
Karen: W
Dean: P (DUD!)
Kathy: H ($4,000)
Kathy solves HEADWAITER. Pat offers her a trip to Hong Kong, but she puts it all on a gift certificate.
The day turned out alright, except for Dean. He'll leave with the nice parting gifts.
BONUS ROUND:
Winning big again, and maybe a bonus prize! She selects...
Habersham Plantation corner cupboard ($4,200)
How about old-fashioned STRNLE?
She only gets the first word, and does not solve OLD WIVES' TALE (Pat accidentally said TILE at first). Hey, she's still up to $14,550 in prizes!
