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 St. Jack and Vanna White.
00:19Well, Tony, thank you very much.
00:22Another nice group, we appreciate it.
00:25Thank you, Jeff.
00:27Well, you have letters to attend to, and I have people.
00:31Hi!
00:33Well, nice of you all to show up here.
00:35Grab those devices so you can win some money.
00:37Right down there, if you would. There you go.
00:39$1,000 for our first toss-up.
00:41The category is On the Map.
00:44Let's go.
00:46On the Map.
00:56Stan.
00:57The Coast of Maine.
00:59Yes, sir.
01:02Stan Kosmowski, right?
01:04Is from Tampa, Florida. Army vet, huh?
01:07I am, and I think we share something in common.
01:09We were both military broadcasters.
01:11That's right. I did that in Saigon, and you were...
01:15Where were you?
01:16I was in Frankfurt, Germany, reading sports in defense of my country.
01:19Okay.
01:21So, tell us about life these days. You're married.
01:23Married to my wife, Marianne, for 44 years.
01:27We have three daughters, three grandchildren.
01:29Nice to have you here, Stan.
01:31Hi, Lulu.
01:32Hi!
01:33Lulu Castaneda is here, right?
01:34From Torrance, California. Marine veteran.
01:36We have all veterans with us tonight.
01:38A special night for us.
01:39You were in for six years, right?
01:41I was.
01:43Now, you received a medal for shooting, and that's a nice accomplishment,
01:47but it was a tougher road than most because you're a woman, and at the time...
01:52Yes, at the time, they didn't allow females to go on the rifle range.
01:57One Friday morning, I had had it with the boys teasing me,
02:00and I said, no, it's not okay. I want to go on the rifle range.
02:04And they said, I can't because I'm a girl.
02:06And that afternoon, I had orders to go to the rifle range and earn my medal.
02:10Good for you.
02:11I earned my medal.
02:12Well, you accomplished it. Nice to have you here.
02:14Good to be here.
02:15Hi, Sonja. How are you?
02:16Hi, Pat. How are you?
02:17I'm well, thanks.
02:18Sonja Magwood-Morales is here.
02:19Yes.
02:20Queens, New York, huh? And you were Air Force?
02:22Yes.
02:23And so what were your duties, and what rank did you achieve?
02:26I was a service apprentice, a specialist.
02:28I was there for four years, and I was an airman first class.
02:31So what led you to the military?
02:34My family, family tradition.
02:36My grandfather was a World War vet.
02:38My father was a Vietnam vet.
02:40My brother was in the Navy.
02:41My uncles were also in the Navy, and cousins in the Marine.
02:44So I'm going to do that, too.
02:45Yes.
02:46All right. Let's get ready for another toss-up, please.

09:08One of them is a million-dollar wedge. You now have control of that.
09:11And then hold up that Vegas wedge. There you go.
09:14And Jim Thornton will tell you all about it.
09:16Yes, I will. Here's the perfect desert retreat, Sonya.
09:20It's the time of your life at Las Vegas' new Circa Resort and Casino,
09:24home to the world's largest sports book
09:26and the ultimate outdoor sports aqua theater, Stadium Swim.
09:31Circa, the new era of Vegas begins here.
09:34$7,400.
09:37Well, Sonya has...
09:42I know, sure, now you're smiling.
09:44Sonya has $11,600 cash and prizes.
09:47She has that million-dollar wedge.
09:49If she gets to the bonus round with that thing,
09:51she has a shot at that million bucks.
09:54Whoo! We'll be back.
09:59All right, let's do a prize puzzle here.
10:01Places is the category for it.
10:04And Sonya had quite a round last time.
10:07It's going to start this one. Here she goes.
10:10$500.
10:16$700.
10:17R.
10:18Yeah, not a good start. Two Rs.
10:24All right, hold your breath.
10:25It's going to be close, but you made it. $800.
10:28S.
10:29Yep, four Ss.
10:32All righty, $4,600.
10:35Well...
10:37I never thought I'd say the words
10:39Sonya and express in the same sentence,
10:41but pick a letter.
10:43T.
10:45Uh, there are four Ts. $4,000.
10:48Wow. She's moving along now.
10:50$8,600.
10:51If you do the express thing, you keep calling consonants.
10:54You get $1,000 for each one. You can buy vowels.
10:56But if you miss any letter, it's a bankrupt.
10:58And you already have a lot of money, so it's...
11:02It's a little, uh...
11:03It's a little gambling. It's up to you.
11:05You want to do the express or not?
11:07I'm going to do the express.
11:08All right.
11:09All right.
11:10And she has that million-dollar wedge,
11:12so there's a lot at stake here.
11:14On the express we go.
11:15What letter do you want to start with?
11:17A.
11:18Buying a vowel. There are two of them.
11:25N.
11:27Two Ns.
11:28Two Ns.
11:29She's also risking, of course, that million-dollar wedge.
11:35A.
11:37Five As.
11:42Wow. Let them all come up.
11:44Now, you have $10,100.
11:48Uh, what do you want to do now?
11:50F.
11:52Yes. Two Fs.
11:56Now what would you like?
11:58C.
12:00Uh-huh.
12:05D.
12:06Is there a D up there? There he is.
12:09Everything else is a vowel.
12:10Let Vanna get out of the way,
12:12and please tell us what's up there.
12:15I.
12:16You want the word?
12:17Well, no, you... Okay.
12:18You bought a vowel, but you can stop
12:20because you're all vowels left.
12:22If you don't know it, you can keep buying vowels.
12:24But if you know it, you can solve it now.
12:26I would like to solve the puzzle.
12:28Yeah, do it.
12:29Fantastic Seafood Restaurant.
12:33Yeah, that's it!
12:38Wow.
12:42You surprised yourself there?
12:43I sure did.

13:30She still has that million-dollar wedge.
13:32She put that at risk with the Express,
13:35but she came through.

13:41All right, let's move along.

14:35Risking it all.
14:37Yeah, wow.
14:38Everybody got one.
14:41So, let's move along.
14:42Phrase the category for this next round.
14:45And, Sonya, you got that last toss-up.
14:47You'll start.
14:48It means time's running a little short.
14:49Give it a final spin for us.
14:51You got that million-dollar wedge still in play.
14:55We'll add $1,000.
14:56$1,650 for every consonant we find.
14:58Again, it's a phrase.

16:00Listen, I wish we had more for you, but we sure had fun with you.
16:03I had fun, too.
