00:55You said my name right.
00:57I'm so happy.
00:59No one says it right.
01:00How do they say it?
01:01How can I?
01:01It looks like Callen to me.
01:03We have uneducated people in America.
01:08I like you already, Callen.
01:10Callen Franklin.
01:11Did I get the last name right, too?
01:12Yes, sir.
01:12OK.
01:13All right.

01:15Fisk University, right?
01:16Yes, sir.
01:17You are a Bulldog.
01:19Yes, sir.
01:19And you're a sophomore.
01:20Yes, sir.
01:21And you're very polite.
01:22Yes, sir.
01:23You know, see, Pat, you get me.
01:25I do.
01:25And let's see.
01:26You're obsessed with two of my favorite entertainers,
01:28Beyonce and Gelato.
01:29Yes.
01:30I'm a huge Beyonce fan.
01:31I went to two concerts, hoping to win some Beyonce money today.
01:35So.
01:36And Gelato is the food, actually.
01:37Yeah.
01:38I'm a huge Gelato fan.
01:39I'm usually in that part of the grocery store any time.
01:42And you want to go to law school.
01:43Is that it?
01:44Yes, I want to be an entertainment lawyer.
01:45So, Pat, we can try to do something.
01:47Or Vanna.
01:48We can try to do something as well.
01:50Either one.
01:51He's kind of fickle.
01:52Either one.
01:53Either one.
01:54Whoever will pay the bill.
01:56Good for you, Kelly.
01:57Yeah.
01:58And also, I want to shout out to my grandmother.
01:59She's in the audience with me today.
02:00She's my wheel-watching buddy.
02:01Good to have you here, Kelly.
02:02Thank you so much.
02:03Now stand there and behave.
02:04Hi, Mia.
02:05How you doing?
02:06Hi, Pat.
02:07Mia Depta is here.
02:08Crown Point, Indiana, huh?
02:09Yep.
02:10You're a proud Boilermaker.
02:11I am a proud Boilermaker.
02:12Purdue sophomore?
02:13Yes.
02:14I'm a sophomore studying elementary education.
02:16Yeah.
02:17And things going well, I hope.
02:18Very well.
02:19I've always wanted to be a teacher ever since I was young.
02:22Fortunate enough to grow up looking up at great teachers.
02:25Will you be the first teacher in the family?
02:27No.
02:28My family is full of teachers.
02:29Oh, okay.
02:30That's where it all came from.
02:31Yeah.
02:32So I'm kind of just continuing the trend.
02:33Good for you.
02:34We're talking about entertainment people.
02:35Taylor Swift is your...
02:36I love Taylor Swift, Pat.
02:37Love her.
02:38I've been to two concerts.
02:39I'm a huge Swifty.
02:40And Kellyn inspired me.
02:41I'm going to use some of this money that I hopefully win to go to a Taylor Swift concert.
02:46Oh, all right.
02:47Well, good.
02:48I'm glad you have good plans.
02:49Yeah.
02:50I hope you win a lot, too.
02:51Nice to have you here.
02:52Thank you, Pat.
02:53David, how are you?
02:54You're from Tennessee, right?
02:55Yes.
02:56It's from Riverside, California.
02:57UC Riverside.
02:58That's right.
02:59Senior.
03:00Yes.
03:01Real life is about to happen to you.
03:02What are you going to do with it?
03:03Well, I study mechanical engineering, so I hope to be an engineering professor.
03:07I'm currently at a club, the MECC.
03:11It's the Marine Energy Collegiate Competition.
03:12I'm the project lead there.
03:14We're building turbines powered by the ocean.
03:16Wow.
03:17Well, that sounds like pretty cool stuff.
03:18Well, we hope...
03:20What do you do for fun?
03:21Do you have a...
03:22We're talking entertainers.
03:23Do you have anyone other than me that whom you admire?
03:25Oh, fun.
03:26Rock climbing.
03:27I do a lot of rock climbing by myself.
03:29Oh.
03:30Okay.
03:31Well, that's enough.
03:32That's all the...
03:33Let's do another toss-up.

05:04All right.
05:05Put it right down there.
05:06Oh, Lord.

15:53Thank you, Pat.
15:54Nice to meet you.
15:55Thank you both for being here.
15:56You ready for this?
15:57Let's do it.
15:58Okay.
15:59I'm going to give you three categories, and you'll choose one.
16:00And that's what you'll play in the bonus round.
16:01Thing, event, what are you doing?
16:02What are you doing?
16:03All right.
16:07I hope it's solving another puzzle.
16:08We'll find out in a minute.
16:09You know, if my memory serves me correct, when you hit that early on, the first, I think
16:10first spin, you landed on the million.
16:11And the next spin, you lost a million.
16:12I don't think you ever spun the wheel again.
16:13Is that possible?
16:14I let them do the hard work.
16:15I just figured it out.
16:16I don't want to hit bankrupt again, especially during the prize puzzle.
16:17He never touched the wheel again from that.
16:18Well, now I can touch this one.
16:19Oh, there you go.
16:20You're going to have to.
16:21Yeah.
16:22Who's with you here?
16:23I have my mom and grandma with me.
16:24Well, you ladies have had your hands full.
16:25You're going to have a lot of fun.
16:26You're going to have a lot of fun.
16:28All right.
16:29Ready to spin this thing?
16:30Let's do it, Pat.
16:31All right.
16:32Kellen, go ahead.
16:33All right, big money.
16:34Oh.
16:35He made up for not spinning.
16:36You folks talk among yourselves.
16:37We'll wait for the wheel to stop.
16:38All right.
16:39All right.
16:40All right.
16:41All right.
16:42All right.
