Yes, I know the video kinda spoils something before the game even starts, but a better question that needs to be answered is how much will be won and how many puzzles will we get through today?
Date and video posted by the red contestant.

Looking at the thumbnail I think this is the nighttime show, since I can see what looks like the $5,000 wedge between the yellow and blue arrows.
Shame it got blocked, too, since the 1988 portion of Season 5 is a bit harder to find than the '87 portion (in fact, I don't think GSN aired any early-'88 episodes).

It was definitely the nighttime show as everything was for cash and it had the neon $25,000.

Welp, didn't think that would go down quickly. Unfortunately I don't have a full recap of the episode, but here what I can recall from the episode (spoiler tags if this episode ever shows up again): Today in the studio, there's a pair of lithographs, a $49,000 Maserati, a $62,000 log house, $25,000 in all of its neon goodness, and more up for grabs today on wheel. Over $200,000 worth of great stuff.
This show is very interesting for a couple of reasons.
One, we managed to get to six rounds tonight (1000/2500/3500/3500/5000/5000).
Secondly, all the puzzles tonight were solved by one person, Michael (our uploader). He managed to get around $20,250 in six puzzles.
Here's some of the puzzles he solved:
R2: IN THIS BUSINESS IT'S DOG-EAT-DOG (QUOTATION)
R5: I BEG TO DIFFER (PHRASE)
R6 (which was a $300 speedup): WILLIAM HOLDEN (PERSON)
Tracy had picked up the R2 prize (a steel etagere and a chair worth $2750 labeled FURNITURE), but had picked a dud.
In the Bonus Round, Michael decides to play for that $49,000+ red Maserati, and solves the puzzle using the old RSTLNE (sorry, forgot the puzzle). His grand total for the day was over $69,000. If there's anything else that you want to know about this episode, (such as there being sunbursts behind the contestants) I wish I could be of more help, but that's all I can remember at the moment.. |

Got to watch parts of it. I believe the BR puzzle was SAT ON A TUFFET, a PHRASE taken from the classic nursery rhyme, "Little Miss Muffet."

^ Maybe because a person or character didn't say it? Not sure.

If there's anything else that you want to know about this episode, (such as there being sunbursts behind the contestants) I wish I could be of more help, but that's all I can remember at the moment. I think the only thing that I personally would want to know (and I know you can't provide this; I'm just saying) is whether the intro used the "Big Bonanza of Cash" spiel, which was dropped sometime between February 12 (Hank/Nancy/Becky) and March 23 (Barbara/Laura/Marc). |

I believe they did not say Big Bonanza of Cash in the intro, otherwise I probably would've mentioned it.
