00:00From Sony Pictures Studios, it's a marriages game!
00:08Wheel of Fortune!
00:13Ladies and gentlemen, here are the stars of our show!
00:17That's Zig-Zach and Jenna White!
00:20Why, hi!
00:22Thanks a lot!
00:24Hi, Jennifer!
00:25Hi, how's everybody doing over here?
00:32Well, grab those devices, let's start giving away some money.
00:35There you go, you all got them? Good.
00:37First toss-up, $1,000, it's a place.
00:40And here we go.
00:51And, Debbie?
00:52Presidential Library?
00:53No.
00:54That's it. Easy as that.
00:59Debbie Matlow, right?
01:00Yes.
01:01From Huntington Beach, California.
01:02That's right.
01:03Now, I know people who collect elephant things, and I know people who collect frogs and all that.
01:06You're the first bulldog collector. That's your thing, right?
01:09Yeah, I collect real ones as well.
01:11Oh, do you?
01:12Yeah.
01:13And all kinds of memorabilia.
01:14Right, I've got statues and stuffed animals.
01:17And you're a bit of a yeller at the screen, are you?
01:20Yeah, my friends and I used to yell at the screen all the time when people would buy vowels, like E's, when it was obvious that there was one there.
01:27And we'd always scream at them, it's like, why are you wasting your money?
01:29But now I can understand.
01:31People at home think, why are they wasting money? They're not.
01:33I mean, because you know there's an E, there could be four others.
01:35Right.
01:36Anyway, nice to have you with us.
01:37Thank you, Pat.
01:38Hi, Candice.
01:39Hi.
01:40Candice Starks, did you come all the way from Atlanta to be with us?
01:42I did.
01:43That's very kind. And you've been trying to get out of here for a long time.
01:45A long time.
01:47Do you care to put a year on that?
01:49I'm going to say at least 15.
01:51Wow.
01:52Well, you were a testament to perseverance, you know.
01:55You need to keep trying.
01:56Keep trying.
01:57And now you're here.
01:58You own a bakery?
01:59I do.
02:00I own a bakery in the Atlanta area.
02:01We do cakes and pies with my awesomely talented boyfriend.
02:05Oh, good.
02:06Nice to have you here.
02:07Hi, Stephen.
02:08Hi, Pat.
02:09Stephen Moon, Miami, Florida, although originally not from around here, right?
02:13That's right.
02:14I'm from the UK, but now Miami is home.
02:16How long have you lived in the States?
02:18About five years now.
02:19There's nothing better than when you're watching tennis and the announcer is speaking with a British accent.
02:25It just makes it sound like a really important thing.
02:28We try.
02:29Good to have you all here.
02:31Get ready.
02:32We'll do another toss-up.
02:33This one is worth $2,000, and the category is Movie Title.
02:37Here we go.
02:46And it's Stephen.
02:47Thor, Love, and Thunder?
02:49Yeah, that's it.
02:50It's a comedy, I believe.
02:54Stephen gets $2,000, and he'll be spinning in a matter of moments.
02:58Let's check the puzzle.
02:59It's same name.
03:01I think you know how that works, and you will start things off.
03:04All right.
03:05Here we go.
03:11600.
03:12S.
03:13One S.
03:15I'd like to buy a vowel.
03:17An E.
03:19Let's see.
03:20I believe we have one E for you.
03:22Yeah, there it is.
03:27650.
03:28An R.
03:29Uh-huh.
03:30Two R's.
03:34I'd like to buy another vowel.
03:36An A.
03:38Five A's.
03:41Nice job.
03:45650.
03:46T.
03:47Yes, sir.
03:48One T.
03:55C.
03:56No.
03:57Sorry.
03:58No C.
03:59Debbie.
04:04P.
04:05There's no P.
04:06Canvas.
04:08650.
04:09Y.
04:10There is a Y, and it's coming right at you.
04:19W.
04:20Mm-hmm.
04:21There are three W's.
04:22Would you pick up that gift tag for us?
04:24That represents $500 cash and a $500 gift card for Molly B's Gourmet Cookies.
04:29Just leave it there.
04:30I'm going to solve.
04:31All right.
04:32Go ahead.
04:33Carrie and Walla Walla Washington.
04:35Very nice.
04:39She said, I've waited so long to get on this show.
04:41I'm just going to solve and be sure I get some money here.
04:44And I can't blame you.
04:46Hey, you have $3,150.
04:48Nice going.
04:49Everybody has a little money.
04:50We like it just that way.
04:51I'd move them back in place a little bit.
04:53$10,000.
04:55All right, boys and girls.
04:56Here we go.
04:57Everybody has a little money now, and someone's going to get some more.
05:00Song lyrics, the category for this round.
05:03And Debbie, we'll start with you.
05:10600.
05:11M.
05:12Two M's.
05:16M.
05:17M.
05:18M.
05:19M.
05:20M.
05:21M.
05:22M.
05:24Logical start.
05:25I'd like to buy an I, please.
05:27And the logic continues.
05:28Yes.
05:29Four I's.
05:36900.
05:37T, please.
05:39One T.
05:45500.
05:46P.
05:47No P.
05:48Candice.
05:54All right.
05:56S.
05:57Mm-hmm.
05:58Two S's.
06:04500.
06:05R.
06:06But no R.
06:07All right, Stephen.
06:08All right.
06:14650.
06:15J.
06:16One J.
06:19I'd like to buy a vowel, a U.
06:23Well, there is a U on just the one.
06:25It probably doesn't help a lot, but there it is.
06:32Well, what letter would you like now?
06:35An N.
06:37There is one N, so you'd be risking that 1,000 plus the 400 you have,
06:40but there could be 10,000 back there.
06:42It could be a bankrupt.
06:43Are you a gambling man?
06:44Today I am.
06:45All right.
06:46Go, Stephen.
06:47And we hope for the 10,000, and we get the 10,000.
06:50There you go.
06:52All right, put it right down there.
06:54I'd like to buy another vowel.
06:55All right.
06:56An A.
06:57Two A's.
07:06500.
07:07W.
07:08No W.
07:09Debbie.
07:16A D.
07:18Nope, there is no D.
07:20Candice.
07:26600.
07:27L.
07:28Yeah, L's we have.
07:29We have five of them, which means you're sitting on $10,000 right now.
07:40650.
07:41Y.
07:42There you go.
07:43Two Y's.
07:51Well, here we go.
07:52What letter would you like?
07:54B.
07:55Yes.
08:00Now, you don't have to know what you're saying.
08:02You just have to say it if you want to solve this thing.
08:05I'd like to solve.
08:07OK, go ahead.
08:09I'm just a bill.
08:11Yes, I'm only a bill.
08:21That was good.
08:25I've never heard these lyrics in my life.
08:27No, you know, it is.
08:28And it probably might have been a disadvantage to you, Stephen.
08:30I don't know if you're familiar with it, too.
08:32But it's a children's educational video of those big years.
08:36Never mind.
08:37Anyway, the important thing is that you have $18,300.
08:42You're up to $21,450.
08:46Nice going.
08:48We'll be back.
08:50If you're just joining us, number one, where have you been?
08:52And number two, we're about to do our prize puzzle for the night.
08:55Fun and games is the category.
08:57There it is.
08:58And Candice will spin it first.
09:07550.
09:08R.
09:09Afraid not.
09:10No R.
09:11OK, Stephen, let's go.
09:12650.
09:18S.
09:19One S.
09:22Like to buy a vowel?
09:23An A.
09:24There are two A's.
09:32Well, well, well.
09:34An N.
09:36And there are two of them.
09:37That's $2,000 for that.
09:39So if you do the express thing, I'm sure you know this,
09:41but I must explain to people who may not be familiar with it
09:44that you keep calling consonants.
09:46You get $1,000 for each one.
09:47You can buy vowels.
09:48You miss any letter.
09:49It's a bankrupt.
09:50Are you going to do this, Stephen?
09:51I'm going to do it.
09:52All right.
09:54Do trains have a special name in the UK,
09:56or do you just call them trains?
09:58Slow trains is what they call them.
10:00All right.
10:01What do you want to start with?
10:02A G.
10:04One G.
10:10A T.
10:12Yes, three T's.
10:15You're up to $6,400.
10:20An H.
10:22One H.
10:26An E.
10:28Yeah, buying a vowel.
10:29There are a couple of E's.
10:35An L.
10:37One L.
10:43I'd like to buy the O.
10:45Yeah, two O's.
10:53An R.
10:57Oh, Stephen, I'm sorry that derailed you.
11:00Pardon me for that.
11:01All right.
11:02Let's see your return.
11:08One more, please.
11:09There you go.
11:10A C.
11:12Yep, there is a C.
11:13Would you pick up that million dollar wedge, please?
11:17There you go.
11:18Now, put it right down there.
11:20You have a lot of catching up to do,
11:21but it's fun to have that sitting in front of you.
11:23You never know.
11:27500.
11:28B.
11:29No, no B.
11:30I'm sorry.
11:31Candice.
11:38550.
11:39Y.
11:40Yeah, one Y.
11:49500.
11:50F.
11:51Yes, there's an F.
11:55Five vowels, spin the wheel, what?
11:57I'd like to solve.
11:58Well, go ahead.
11:59Flying a kite on the coast.
12:01Yeah.
12:06Before we move on, one quick question for you.
12:08Have you been to the U.S. Virgin Islands?
12:10You're going.
12:14Candice, catch some rays and move to the sound of Calypso.
12:19Have fun in the sun in the U.S. Virgin Islands
12:21at Bolongo Bay Beach Resort.
12:24Enjoy waterfront dining, catamaran sails,
12:27nightly entertainment, and water sports.
12:30Visit BolongoBay.com.
12:33$7,210.
12:36Candice, you're showing off now.
12:39You have almost $30,000 cash and prizes.
12:42But we have more to give away, gang.
12:44We're going to take a break and come back and play some more.
12:46Million dollars not in play, I'm afraid,
12:48but lots of other stuff is.
12:49Stay with us.
12:50Post-captioning sponsored by...
12:53Welcome back.
12:54Everybody's ready for these toss-ups, three of them.
12:56We call it a triple.
12:57Here's the first.
12:58It's an event.
13:11And it's Stephen.
13:13Talent contest.
13:14Yes, sir.
13:17All right.
13:18You've doubled your money there with that $2,000.
13:21Let's see who gets number two.
13:27And it's Debbie.
13:34Costume contest.
13:35Yeah.
13:37Nice going.
13:39That leaves one more.
13:40Another $2,000 up for grabs.
13:42Let's see what happens.
13:57Stephen.
13:58Hot dog eating contest.
14:00Our topic.
14:04Or banger eating, if you want.
14:07Anyway, what do you got?
14:08You got two of the three.
14:09You're up to $6,000.
14:11What are you doing is the category for this next round.
14:13There it is.
14:14And, Stephen, well, you have control of the wheel.
14:16You're going to give it a final spin for us, if you would.
14:19We'll add $1,000 to whatever it lands on
14:21and bring that amount to $1,000.
14:24And, Stephen, you bring that amount to $1,550.
14:27That's what consonants are worth.
14:29What are you doing?
14:30We need a letter from you, Stephen.
14:32G.
14:34Yeah, one G.
14:36Van is out of there.
14:37You'll have three seconds.
14:43And, Debbie.
14:44N.
14:47Candice.
14:56Candice.
14:57S.
14:59Uh-huh, one S.
15:06Stephen.
15:08H.
15:10H.
15:18Debbie.
15:19R.
15:21One R.
15:24Dollars starting to add up.
15:30Candice.
15:32L.
15:34No L, Stephen.
15:37C.
15:40Yes, one C.
15:48Debbie.
15:49M.
15:50Yeah, one M.
15:51Well, one at a time, but you keep coming.
15:55Three seconds.
15:59Candice.
16:02T.
16:05Four T's.
16:08Hang on.
16:10What are you doing?
16:12Setting a kitchen timer.
16:14Yeah, that's it.
16:17Wow.
16:19Well, look at you.
16:23You got about $2,500 for every year you waited to be on here.
16:28$37,460.
16:32For the bonus round to come.
16:33Stay right here, okay?
16:34I'll be right back.
16:35Well, you ended up with $3,000.
16:36I'm happy to say.
16:37I hope you had a good time.
16:38I had a great time.
16:40Thank you, Pat.
16:41Stephen, it was a pleasure.
16:42Thank you, Pat.
16:43And $6,000 for your efforts.
16:46Well, so it was a long time coming, but worth it, right?
16:48So worth it.
16:49Let's take a look at the categories,
16:50see which one you're going to play in the bonus round.
16:52Place, things, person.
16:54What do you like?
16:55Person.
16:56All right.
16:57You've done very well so far.
16:58Keep it up.
17:00Keep it up.
17:03What a night.
17:04$37,460 and you look happy about it.
17:07I am so happy.
17:08And you should be.
17:09Spin the wheel.
17:15There's $100,000 out there.
17:16That would be a nice way to end things tonight.
17:19All right.
17:20I'll grab that for you and ask you to head this way
17:22and stop on that mark right there.
17:25I'll stop right here and Vanna will stand where she is.
17:28Person.
17:31R-S-T-L-N-E.
17:35That's all she's going to give you.
17:37The rest is up to you.
17:38We need three more consonants, one more vowel.
17:42D.
17:45P.
17:47Yes.
17:50M.
17:51And a vowel.
17:54A.
17:57Well, you're not going to get a lot of help, I'm afraid.
17:59That is all you're going to get,
18:01which looks pretty tough to me, to be honest with you.
18:05It's a person.
18:06You have 10 seconds.
18:07There's a used letter board.
18:08Maybe that'll help you out.
18:09Talk it out.
18:10Good luck.
18:21The only chance you had if he had called a B,
18:23you probably would have gotten there.
18:25I'm sorry you didn't do that.
18:26But you know what?
18:27We've got to see what you didn't get,
18:29which was that.
18:30Would have been awfully nice.
18:31But what a night, huh?
18:32$37,460.
18:35Congratulations.
18:36You stay right here, okay?
18:38And Vanna Navarro.

18:51Remember the puzzle that kind of confused people earlier on?
18:53Yes.
18:54There's a series of little short videos that aired on kids' programs
18:59called Schoolhouse Rock was the umbrella title,
19:01and they would teach kids about grammar and English and math.
19:05There was an odd one that was about growing mushrooms in your basement.
19:08That one I didn't quite get.
19:09But the others were pretty cool, and that's what that was.
19:12That was.
19:13Okay, now we know.
19:14How many people with children remember that?
19:15So, we've got to go.
19:16Yes, we do.
19:17See you next time.
