The intro was cut out, and we're straight to the interviews.
Look at this studio filled with fabulous prizes just waiting to be won during College Week on...
Wheel Of Fortune!
Today's contestants:
Kristi Ochio (?): Senior at University of Hawaii majoring in marketing, also involved with a campus newspaper
O.J. Whatley: Freshman at University of Miami studying marine science, wants a career in maritime law or training dolphins
Gary DeShaun: Junior at University of Oklahoma majoring in marketing
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is $1,000. We are playing for cash, so let's pay off that tuition!
Kristi solves AT FIRST BLUSH.
How about we take our mind off that puzzle with a prize? There is a Fred Joaillier furnished hot-air balloon pin (labeled PIN) worth $4,500.
In case of another short puzzle, the $2,500 space may bail you out.
Perfection! O.J. solves TOM SAWYER AND BECKY THATCHER to keep the hot-air balloon pin.
His excitement showed when he knew the answer, so what about Gary if he hits the $3,500 space? He's also got some security with a Free Spin token.
Gary solves MAXIMUM-SECURITY PRISON.
Time to release another prize. In goes a students' European tour and AESU meet-up (labeled TOUR) worth $7,316.
Never say you don't trust the $5,000 space, or you'll regret it.
DING DING! DING DING!
Oh, why must you do that? Well, time for Pat to give the Wheel a Final Spin. Consonants are worth...$5,000 a piece! This could lead to a victory!
Kristi: T ($21,300)
O.J.: L (x2) ($10,000)
O.J. solves DUDLEY AND MARY TYLER MORE to stay on top.
The Free Spin token wants no part of this trap.
BONUS ROUND:
For Miami, he can pick one of...
Car, motorcycle, and boat
African safari
Precious metals package
"Beamer" (gee, I wonder?)
Good ol' American cash ($25,000)
And Pat knows he's going for the "Beamer" BMW 325i convertible ($38,378).
We'll give RSTLNE for free...
And you'll give us HDCA:
Several gibberish guesses and a painfully close DAYDREAMILY. He does not solve DAYDREAMING, so he stays at a still-healthy $16,900.
