Airdate: February 29, 1984 (leap year!)
Look at this studio filled with glamorous and imaginative gifts! Fabulous merchandise including...
A $9,000 breakfast nook
A vacation in Hawaii
A shopping spree in Beverly Hills
Over $51,000 just waiting to be won during this Battle of the Sexes week on...
Wheel Of Fortune!
Today's men:
Ron McDonald: Provides in-home patient care for his uncle
Ray Long: Studying fire science and languages, is a firefighter by trade
Rick Armoi (?): Corporate attorney, San Antonio, TX
Pat says he won't mention that about Ron's name. After the interviews, Pat calls himself "Rat".
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.
Perfection! Ron solves WHO'S MINDING THE STORE.
No fooling around here, and the $1,000 agrees. The extra Bankrupt wants to ruin the procedure, though.
Before Ray spins, Pat mentions that Ray thinks he appeared in Raiders from Outer Space. Pat has no recollection of it, claiming it was another game show host.
Ron solves SARAH PURCELL.
Hungry for more? We'll add the $2,000 space for this puzzle:
The ding accidentally sounds on the incorrect V, followed by the buzzer afterwards.
Rick solves COMBINATION LOCK.
Not much time left, so Pat gives the Wheel a Final Spin, with money going in a Giorgio gift certificate. Consonants are worth...$350 a piece. Ron will lead the way.
Ron: I
Ray: T (DUD!)
Rick: G ($350)
Ron: N (x2) ($700)
Ron gets NO, but guesses FISHING, SWIMMING, and HUNTING for the second word.
Ray: R (DUD!)
Rick: D (DUD!)
Ron: P (DUD!)
Ray: S ($350)
For the second word, Ray repeats SWIMMING, then adds SHOOTING, STARRING, and STAYING.
Rick: M ($700)
Rick finally solves NO SMOKING for the gift certificate.
No slipping either. It might have happened to Ray, and he'll leave with the nice parting gifts.
BONUS ROUND:
I repeat, no slipping. Now for Ron's possible prize. He picks:
Jayco fold-out camping trailer ($6,065).
No let-downs from SNCLTE:
He's stuck on LOVE (during this week, I might add), and does not solve LIVERWURST. His score will remain at $5,400 for now.
