00:00From Sony Pictures Studios, it's America's Game.
00:08Wheel of Fortune!
00:12Ladies and gentlemen, here are the stars of our show.
00:16That's Sajak and Benna White.
00:19Oh, I'm hungry. Are you hungry?
00:20I am.
00:22Back again.
00:23Thanks, everybody. Here we go again.
00:27I gotta go.
00:28Okay, go.
00:29Hey, how you doing, everybody? Good to see you.
00:31Grab those devices and let's get on with it.
00:33We're gonna give away $1,000 to one of these folks.
00:36Food and drink, appropriately, is the category.
00:39It's worth $1,000.
00:40And, Benna, let's go.
00:50Josh.
00:51International cuisine.
00:52That's it, yeah.
00:54There you go.
00:56Josh Burstein.
00:57Venice, California.
00:58And originally by way of Tulsa, right?
01:01Yes, just your run-of-the-mill Asian Jew from Tulsa, Oklahoma.
01:05I see a sitcom in your future.
01:07What's up?
01:08You lived in a simulated moon base, of course.
01:10That's right, with five European scientists in a habitat that NASA uses out in Hawaii.
01:15How long did you live in there?
01:16Two weeks, one lunar cycle.
01:18Wow, okay. And just for fun?
01:21Just to see how the average person would live off-planet.
01:23Okay.
01:24It was a study.
01:25Okay.
01:26What's this, what's it called, Krav Maga?
01:30Krav Maga, I'm not familiar with it.
01:32It's martial arts, it's like Israeli self-offense.
01:34Okay.
01:35Alright, you're a very interesting man, Josh.
01:37I wish we could spend more time talking.
01:39But I must move on.
01:40Don't think ill of me.
01:42Hello, Jeremy, how you doing?
01:43Hi, Pat, how are you?
01:44Jeremy Tidwell, Cypress, Texas.
01:46What do you do there?
01:47So I'm a paramedic firefighter.
01:49And you have three kids you want to brag about?
01:51I do, I have a girl and two boys, Kamey, Joey, and Randy.
01:54So only three kids, but 10,000 baseball cards.
01:58Yes, 10,000 baseball cards.
02:00I do have a Nolan Ryan rookie card.
02:03Okay, is that like, would you call that the most valuable?
02:05Yes, that's my most valuable.
02:07What year would that have been?
02:08I don't even know.
02:10I'm sorry.
02:11Well, check it, because that could affect the value.
02:13Yes.
02:14Good to have you.
02:15Hi, Kelsey, how are you?
02:16Hi, Pat, I'm great, how are you?
02:17I'm well, thank you.
02:19Kelsey Locke is from Kansas City, which I believe is in Missouri, at least a good part of it.
02:23I'm in the Missouri side, yes.
02:25You're married?
02:26I am, I'm married to my husband, Ben.
02:28We've been together about seven years, and we have a six-year-old daughter and a two-year-old son.
02:32And darts and koozies, these are your two things?
02:35Yeah, yeah, they probably both come from the same place as far as a bar.
02:39The same bars.
02:40Yeah.
02:41So you throw darts.
02:42I throw darts, and I have...
02:43Koozies are those things you keep drinks cold in, right?
02:45Yes, yeah.
02:46They come with logos and stuff like that.
02:47Yeah, I have too many.
02:49All right.
02:50Again, and by the way, if you're watching on a DVR, you can rewind and watch this again.
02:55Or we could just move on to our second toss-up, which is worth $2,000.
02:59And the category is...
03:01Phrase.
03:02Here we go.
03:11Kelsey.
03:12For the love of the game.
03:13There you go, you got it.

04:01$650.
04:02H.
04:03Yeah, well, just one.
04:04But that keeps you going.
04:05I'd like to buy a vowel.

05:15Game to play.
05:16$700.
05:21C.
05:22Sure.
05:23One C.
05:24I'd like to solve the puzzle.
05:26All right.
05:27Go ahead.
05:27Stop the music.
05:28Yeah, that's it.
05:29We're in.
05:32Well, you had that toss-up earlier,
05:34and you just won that round.
05:36You have $4,150 at the early lead.
05:38You can hang on to that wild card,
05:40and we'll take a break.
05:41We'll come back and play some more right after this.
05:43$10,000.
05:51$10,000.
05:55Hi, Jim Banks.
05:56All right.
05:57Here's what I've been waiting for you.
05:58Before and after the category for this next round.
06:01Check out the puzzle,
06:02and then Josh will get us started this time.
06:05$10,000.
06:11Mm-hmm.
06:12All right, well, let's have a letter.
06:14T.
06:16Well, there's no T.
06:18Jeremy.
06:20T.
06:26$700.
06:27S.
06:28That we have.
06:29Two of them,
06:30and that gets you started with a little money.
06:32$1,400, Jeremy.
06:33I'd like to buy a vowel.
06:34Yeah.
06:35E.
06:36One E.
06:44Well, maybe you'll have a shot at it.
06:46Let's start with a letter.
06:47R.
06:49Mm-hmm.
06:50There's one R.
06:51That's $1,000,
06:52so you'd be risking that,
06:53plus the $1,150 they have,
06:55but there could be $10,000 back there.
06:57But remember,
06:58there could also be a bankrupt.
06:59We got a 50-50 shot.
07:00What are you gonna do, Jeremy?
07:01I'll go for it.
07:02All right.
07:03Hope it works out.
07:04Let's see the $10,000.
07:05Yeah!
07:06Yeah!
07:09Ah, your poker face gave it away.
07:11All right, Jeremy, you have some spendable cash
07:13if you want to do any buying,
07:14or you spin the wheel.
07:15I'd like to buy a vowel.
07:16O.
07:17There's no O.
07:18Kelsey.
07:25$850.
07:26N.
07:27No.
07:28No N either.
07:29Josh, back to you.
07:35$850.
07:36H.
07:37There you go.
07:38One H.
07:44This looks pretty good.
07:45Uh-huh.
07:46L.
07:48Two Ls.
07:49Now, Josh, before you go on,
07:50remember,
07:52if you go to a bonus round,
07:53you can take a wild card with you,
07:54but you can also use that wild card
07:55in lieu of a spin.
07:56And I check with Lou,
07:57and that would be okay.
07:58It's up to you.
07:59In other words,
08:00you would just call a letter,
08:01and you'd get $3,500.
08:02I will use it.
08:03All right, I will take it.
08:04C.
08:05What's that?
08:06C.
08:07One C.
08:08Another $3,500.
08:10I'd like to solve the puzzle.
08:12Go for it.

12:40Jeremy got $4,000 there.
12:42Congratulations on that.
12:43Showbiz is the category for this next round.

13:24$850.
13:25S.
13:26One S, yep.
13:27You're on the board.

14:11Give the wheel a final spin for us, Jeremy.
14:13We'll add $1,000 to whatever you land on.
14:16That'll determine the value of consonants
14:18in this speed-up round.
14:19That'll be $1,500.
14:22Again, it's showbiz.

14:49Hi, how you been?
14:50Great, how are you?
14:51Haven't had a chance to say hello to you.
14:53You did very well.
14:54Second place, but a very nice second place,
14:56including that trip to Costa Rica.
14:58$14,400.
15:01Well, I'm glad you got those couple of toss-ups.
15:03Me, too.
15:04I hope you had a good time with us.
15:05I did.
15:06And you won $4,000.
15:07Thank you, Jeremy, very much.
15:09Appreciate it.
15:10Check that Nolan Ryan card.
15:11Yes.
15:12Well, you did it.
15:13Big night.
15:14$17,500.
15:16All cash for Josh, right?
15:17Yeah.
15:18All right, my friend, take a look.
15:20We got three categories.
15:21Phrase, in the kitchen, and thing.
15:24What do you like for the bonus round?
15:26In the kitchen.
15:27All right, that's appropriate.
15:29Josh has been celebrating food all week,
15:31and he's a bit of a foodie.
15:33We'll check that out in other shows when we come back.
15:39This all-new Infiniti QX50 is up for grabs
15:42in the bonus round next.
15:45Having a big night so far, Josh.
15:47$17,500.
15:49We've installed this lovely wheel here,
15:51and we'd like you to give it a good spin.
15:53All righty.
15:55There's $100,000 somewhere out there.
15:58Lots of cash, $40,000 being the minimum.
16:01And where are we?
16:03Okay.
16:04I'll take that and ask you to follow me, sir.
16:07Right there.
16:09You chose in the kitchen.
16:12R-S-T-L-N-E.
16:14We start with those letters.
16:16Ask our audience to be very quiet as we go through this.
16:19He must do it on his own.
16:22That's a pretty good head start.
16:25Um, take a look up there.
16:28Now, those are the R-S-T-L-N-E's we have.
16:31Now we need three more consonants, one more vowel.
16:34B.
16:36C.
16:37Yes.
16:38D.
16:39And a vowel.
16:40O.
16:42Let's see how those choices work.
16:45Not real well.
16:48Well, listen, in the kitchen is a category
16:51that gives you something to think about.
16:53Ten seconds to try to talk it out.
16:55Good luck.
16:57Blender.
16:58Um...
17:01Uh, spoons.
17:04Uh, air fryer.
17:06You could have stood here until, uh...
17:08Yeah.
17:09It was, uh...
17:10Yeah.
17:11Were you about to say that?
17:12I don't have any of that.
17:13No, no, no.
17:14Okay, all right.
17:15Ah, we have to look in here and see what you didn't get,
17:17which I don't especially like doing,
17:18but there it is, the 40 grand.
17:20But a really nice night.
17:21He had no letters to work with there,
17:23but he ended up with $17,500.
17:26Good job.
17:27That food sounds really good, too, by the way.
17:29Stay right here, Ben, and I'll be right back.
17:31We're gonna be eating right in front of your eyes.
17:33It'll be absolutely repulsive.
17:46Yes!
17:50Mom.
17:52What are you doing?
17:55I'm doing the floss.
18:01Okay.
