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!
00:16Pat Sajak and Fanna White!
00:19Hi!
00:20Boo!
00:21Oh, Halloween number, though.
00:23Thank you, Jim. Thanks, everybody.
00:27Much appreciated.
00:28Yes.
00:29You're welcome in here, too.
00:30No.
00:31Hi!
00:32Good to see you all.
00:35Get ready.
00:36Assuming you want to win some money here, $1,000 at stake in our first toss-up.
00:39The category is On the Map.
00:41And, Fanna, if you would please, let's go.
00:44♪♪♪
00:52Kiki.
00:53The South of France?
00:55Yep, that's it. You got it.
00:56You seem surprised.
00:59Congratulations. Right here in Los Angeles.
01:01And you have a twin.
01:02I do. I have an identical twin sister named Nicole.
01:05Go ahead. I'm sorry.
01:06And she's my world. She's my other world.
01:08And you're a caregiver?
01:09I am. I've been doing caregiving for the last five years.
01:13And I love it.
01:14Okay. Well, it's good to have you here and win some more money, I hope.
01:18You, too, Steve. Steve Schneider from St. Paul, Minnesota.
01:21Ice fishing is your game.
01:22I do like ice fishing. Gives you a lot of face-to-face time, especially when my kids were young.
01:26And a Marine vet.
01:28I am. Thank you.
01:29And thank you.
01:30And real quickly, you've got a thing for fire hydrants, and it sounds weird, but it actually is kind of cool.
01:36I do. I'm a water professional, have been my whole career.
01:39And when you go through a town, you look at the fire hydrants, you can see dates and manufacturers.
01:43Gives you a little bit of history of the town.
01:45Oh, good. All right.
01:46But you have to push the dogs out of the way. It's your only problem.
01:48Hi, Brianna.
01:49Hi, Pat.
01:50Brianna Baker from Redondo Beach, California.
01:52UC Irvine. You go to school there, huh?
01:54Yes, I go to school at UCI.
01:55I'm an education sciences major, and I'm graduating this year.
01:58All right, everybody, get ready. We're going to do another toss-up.
02:00This is worth $2,000.
02:02And the category is Things.
02:17Ask Brianna.
02:18A kind gesture.
02:19Yeah, that's it.
02:21So, she gets $2,000, and she will be spinning very shortly.
02:27But, Jim, I know you have something very exciting to talk about.
02:29Yep, I got a taste of goulash for Halloween, Pat.
02:32Here's tonight's featured prize.

04:11And, Kiki, your turn.
04:18Y.
04:19A Y we have, and you have a wild card now,
04:22so you can pick that up.
04:25And you also got $500.
04:26If you want to do any buying, that's up to you.
04:33Oh, Kiki, don't look down.
04:35Yeah, I know, you have to get rid of that.

04:57Any other purchases?
04:59Can I buy an O, please?
05:01Oh.
05:02Yeah, that's...
05:03Brianna, it's your turn.

05:32Okay.
05:33A.
05:34Yeah, three As.
05:38Buy another, spin it, solve it.

05:42This is your captain speaking.
05:43That's it, yes.
05:45Good going.
05:46$4,500.
05:47You got that toss-up earlier.
05:48You have the early lead with $6,500.
05:50Hence the smile.
05:51Good work.
05:52We'll be back and play lots more Wheel after these words.
05:56Before Renna Arion appeared on Wheel,
05:58she had a wish list of prize destinations in mind,
06:01and we were happy to make her dream come true.
06:03Lush, green vegetation.
06:05You'll find plenty of that in Costa Rica, where you're going.
06:09Renna and husband Adam luxuriated at the Springs Resort,
06:13one of the nicest hotels they'd ever visited.
06:15Highlights included the Mineral Springs,
06:17river water tubing, and exploring the rainforest.
06:20The couple returned home to their busy family life,
06:23rejuvenated, and ready for their next adventure.
06:26$10,000.
06:29Hope that works out for someone.
06:31We're going to do a Wheel of Fortune crossword here,
06:33and the clue is lobster blank, all right?
06:36Keep that in mind as you play,
06:37and Kiki, you'll give it the first spin.
06:39Okay.

07:04Mm-hmm, you got it, two As.
07:10What else do you want to do?
07:11I'd like to buy an I.

07:15Well, you got that.

07:23There's one R.
07:24Pick up that gift tag for us, please, Kiki.
07:26That's $500 cash and a $500 gift certificate

07:32and tell us what you want to do next.

07:42Yep, haven't missed yet, two Ns.
07:51$500.
07:52D.
07:53One D.
07:57I'd like to buy a vowel, a E.
07:59That's not a surprise either, and there you go.
08:02Fill that in, and there's another one.
08:10$650.
08:11M.
08:12I'm sorry, there's no M.
08:13You're on a nice roll there, too.
08:14Steve?
08:19Well, looky there.
08:20Okay.
08:21Is there an S, please?

08:24and you have $3,500 because of that.
08:32$900.

08:34There is a W.
08:41$700.

08:44Yeah, there is a C.
08:47I'd like to solve the puzzle.
08:48Say everything that's up there.
08:49Be careful not to add anything.
08:51Go ahead.
08:52Sauce, dinner, tail, stew.
08:54Got them all, yes, sir.
08:58So, that's a pretty good round.
09:01$5,100, and everybody has some money.
09:04We like it just that way.
09:05As we head into our prize puzzle round,
09:07it's been changed somewhat,
09:08scored dramatically.
09:09Come back, see what happens.
09:10It's never been easier to try out
09:12to be a contestant on Wheel.
09:14Solve fun puzzles from the comfort of your own home
09:18thanks to our brand-new virtual audition.
09:20Wow, there's a happy person, huh?
09:22Go to wheeloffortune.com for details.
09:25Glad you hung around.
09:26Rhyme time is the category for this round,
09:28and it is our prize puzzle round,
09:30and here's our prize guy, Steve.
09:39This time, I don't think you're going to have luck
09:41with that number, I'm afraid.
09:42The bankrupt got you.
09:43Brianna.
09:51$500.
09:52N.
09:53Let's see.
09:54There is no N.
09:55Kiki.
10:03Let's get out of there.
10:04$700.
10:05T.
10:06Yes, one T.
10:07Steve.
10:13Oh, boy, I thought you were going to be okay there.
10:16I'm sorry.
10:17Steve.
10:21$500.
10:22H.
10:23Sure, one H.
10:26Can I buy a vowel, please?
10:27Which one would you like?
10:28E.
10:29E, you adventurous soul, you.
10:30Yes, there it is.
10:33Well, we got that.
10:34Can I buy another vowel, please?
10:35Might be helpful.
10:36A.
10:37Let's see about that.
10:38Three A's.
10:39There you go.
10:44Boy, I don't know.
10:45Can he do it?
10:48Sorry, got it again.
10:49Brianna.
10:55$500.
10:56R.
10:57Uh-huh, there are two R's.
11:02You have $1,000.
11:03I'd like to buy a vowel.
11:04O.
11:07Let's see, there are three O's.
11:09Coming your way.
11:16$600.
11:17S.
11:18Yes, one S.
11:24Uh-oh, uh-oh.
11:26Not good timing there.
11:27Kiki, your turn.
11:30Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on.
11:34I can't tell if you're happy to land there or not.
11:36I suspect not.
11:37But go ahead and pick a letter.
11:39V.
11:40Yeah, there are two of them.
11:42$1,000 apiece.
11:43Now, there are no vowels left, so if you want to do the express thing, you just keep calling letters.
11:48You get $1,000 for each one.
11:49If you miss any letter, it'll be a bankrupt.
11:51Are you going to do this, Kiki?
11:52Yeah, let's do it.
11:53Yeah, come on.
11:54Let's do it.
11:55Come on.
11:56Let's do it.
11:57All right, what letter do you want to start with?
12:00F.
12:01Yes, there is an F.
12:03Okay, let her get out of there.
12:05And now, what do you want to do next?
12:07L.
12:08Yeah, and good news, there are three of them.
12:14So, you have one more letter you can call for $1,000.
12:17Which one would you like?
12:18The Y.
12:20I'm sorry.
12:21Oh.
12:22There's no Y.
12:23I see what happened there.
12:24Steve, it's your turn.
12:26Oh.
12:27Yeah, you have no money.
12:28I'd like to solve.
12:29Yeah, go ahead.
12:30Savor the local flavor.
12:32Yeah, that's it.
12:35Wow.
12:37Well, let's start with your vacation.
12:39You're going to the Dominican Republic.
12:40Listen to this.
12:44Steve, it's a land of baseball, boats, and beaches.
12:47Stay and play with no limits in the Dominican Republic at Hilton La Romana.
12:51Enjoy endless fun and relaxation with upscale amenities, a water park, and so much more.
12:59$7,202.
13:03Boy, I didn't see that coming, and I can see that happening.
13:05And I'm sorry I did for Kiki, but good news for you, and you have $12,302 cash and prizes.
13:11We're going to do a triple toss-up when we come back.
13:13Maybe someone will win $10,000.
13:14Wouldn't that be nice on this Halloween?
13:18Post-captioning sponsored by...
13:20Let's do our triple toss-up for the night.
13:22People is the category.
13:23Here's the first puzzle.
13:29Steve.
13:30Presidents.
13:31Yeah, that's it.
13:35Here comes number two.
13:47Steve.
13:48Prime ministers.
13:49Yeah, there you go.
13:51So he's gotten two points.
13:53Steve.
13:54Prime ministers.
13:55Yeah, there you go.
13:57So he's gotten two $2,000 puzzles.
13:59If he gets his third one, we're going to give him $10,000 altogether.
14:02Let's see what happens.
14:03Number three.
14:15Steve.
14:16Former politicians.
14:17Yeah, my favorite kind of politicians.
14:21Steve, you got them all.
14:22We'll turn that six into $10,000.
14:24Good for you.
14:25You have $22,302.
14:27It's going pretty well, my friend.
14:30Let's move on.
14:31Place is the category for this next round.
14:33And Steve, you get to spin first.
14:35It turns out it's going to be our final spin.
14:39We'll add $1,000,
14:40and every consonant in the speed-up round will be worth $1,500.
14:44Again, place the category.
14:45Steve, we start with you.
14:46Let's have a letter, please.
14:47T.
14:49One T.
14:53T.
15:01Brianna.
15:02N.
15:04One N.
15:13Kiki.
15:14R.
15:16No R.
15:17Steve.
15:18M.
15:20No M.
15:22One D.
15:30E.
15:31Letter, please.
15:32S.
15:34One S, yeah.
15:36Everybody has some money.
15:38Place.
15:42Steve.

15:45Two Fs.
15:48$4,500.
15:52Brianna.
15:53L.
15:55Yeah, two Ls.
15:58You're up to $6,000.
16:00Place.
16:05Kiki.
16:07C.
16:09No C, Steve.
16:11P.
16:12Yeah, let it come up,
16:13and then Vanna will back out.
16:16There are actually two of them.
16:18And you have three seconds.
16:20Brianna.
16:21K.
16:25Steve is wounded there.
16:27Go ahead.
16:28Field of Pink Tulips.
16:29Yeah, that's it.
16:32There were two, hi!
16:33There were two sounds.
16:35I heard K, and then I heard ah!
16:38Anyway, $7,500 that round was worth you.
16:40You had a very nice second place total.
16:42All cash, $14,000.
16:44Thank you very much for being here.
16:46Hi.
16:47Hope you had fun with us.
16:48We enjoyed having you here.
16:49Thank you so much.
16:50I'm sorry, that one letter kind of threw you there.
16:52Yeah.
16:53It's funny, when you're focusing on one word,
16:55that makes sense.
16:56But anyway, let's not dwell on that.
16:58Let's emphasize the fact that you won $1,000,
17:01and we enjoyed having you.
17:02I did.
17:03Thank you very much.
17:08Hi.
17:09Hello.
17:10How are you doing?
17:11I am awesome.
17:12How are you doing?
17:13I am awesome.
17:14How are you doing?
17:15I am awesome.
17:18$22,302.
17:19Event, thing, phrase.
17:20What do you like for the bonus round?
17:22Phrase.
17:23All right.
17:24We'll see if he continues his awesomeness
17:25before we come back.
17:28I hear you are not alone.
17:29Who's with you?
17:30I am not alone.
17:31My wife, Sharon, and my youngest daughter, Megan,
17:33are here.
17:34Nice not to be alone.
17:35All right.
17:36Are you ready to spin this wheel?
17:37I am.
17:38Let's go for it.
17:39He already has $22,302.
17:43And he wants more.
17:44Can you believe it?
17:46And where do we end up?
17:47Right there.
17:48I will take this of A and ask you to follow me.
17:52Right there.
17:54All right.
17:55You chose phrase.
17:56What's your category?
17:57R, S, T, L, M, E.
18:07All right.
18:08Your turn to go to work.
18:09Three more consonants, one more vowel.
18:12D.
18:14B.
18:18C.
18:19And a vowel.
18:20And an A.
18:25You're going to get one word filled in completely.
18:29I know that's very helpful.
18:31And that's all you're going to get.
18:34I don't know.
18:35I would probably just stare at it.
18:37But you have 10 seconds.
18:38Talk it out.
18:39There's a used letter board.
18:40Here we go.
18:41Good luck.
18:53That's about it.
18:55You weren't going to get it.
18:56You had no letters to work with.
18:58It works out that way sometimes.
19:00And we couldn't give you this, which was awfully nice.
19:02But we can give him $22,302 cash and prizes.
19:07And you're mighty and powerful in your own way, Steve.
19:09Thank you very much indeed.
19:11Stay right here.
19:12Van and I'll be right back.
19:15Puzzle about what to get your favorite wheel watcher?
19:17Go to ShopWheelOfFortune.com.
19:20You have a lot of trick-or-treaters in your neighborhood.
19:22Yes.
19:23What are you giving them tonight?
19:24Chocolate candy.
19:25There you go.
19:26My favorite chocolate candy, of course.
19:27Our concern is mostly for the safety for the kids.
19:29So we drain the moat and lower the voltage on the fence.
19:32We do that every year.
19:33We want to be nice.
19:35Last year, they complained about the vichyssoise we handed out.
19:38But this year, we're going to do better.
19:40We'll see you tomorrow.
19:41Have a safe week.
19:42Happy Halloween.
