01:14and a son, Austin, as well.
01:15Okay.
01:16And what are your interests
01:17away from all the work?
01:18I love spending time with friends and family,
01:19cooking, wine.
01:20I try to keep wine,
01:21but I don't do a good job of that, so.

01:25Hi, Michelle.
01:26Hello.
01:27Michelle Grice.

01:34And you're married?
01:35Yes, for a little over a year and a half.
01:36And you're a traveler,
01:37like an international traveler.

01:55I get to work with about 20 math teachers
01:57in the Chicago Public Schools.
01:58It's a DePaul University-Chicago Public School partnership,
02:01and so we get to collaborate
02:02towards strengthening math instruction.
02:04That sounds like a noble effort.
02:05It's great.
02:06And what keeps you busy away from all that?
02:08I love adventure, travel, adventurous things
02:11like bungee jumping, cliff jumping.

03:43Well, as you heard, it's road trip week here.
03:48And so we're doing something fun this week.
03:50All week, one of our contestants could win a new car
03:52without even going to the bonus round.
03:54All they have to do is collect two of these half-car wedges,
03:57and they can drive off with a new 2011 Hyundai Accent GS.
04:01Those are out there for the first three rounds.
04:03We'll learn more about it as we go along.
04:05But right now, to our first puzzle.
04:07Showbiz is the category.
04:09Robbie, you won the right to start
04:10with those toss-up rounds.
04:11Here we go.
04:13Oh, big one.
04:18That was a long way to go for that.
04:19I don't know.
04:20Better now.
04:21Yeah, Michelle.
04:28Not that wheel.
04:29Well, at least there's some variety.
04:31Ruth?
04:33Come on, Ruth.
04:36That is gonna be close.
04:37You have to land right in the middle
04:38on that yellow mark.
04:39And you do.
04:40All right.
04:41First thing you have to do is find a letter.
04:43T.
04:44And you did.
04:45Pick up.
04:46You got a half a car there.
04:48There you go.
04:49Hold on to that.
04:50Just a reminder.
04:51And, again, not to jinx it,
04:52but this is new to us.
04:53That's vulnerable with bankrupts,
04:55so be careful about that.
04:56Meantime, go ahead.
04:57Either spin the wheel or buy a vowel.
04:58I'd like to buy a vowel.
04:59E.
05:00There are four Es.
05:09$500.
05:10N.
05:11There are four Ns.
05:12Yeah.
05:16Ruth, you have $3,250.
05:20I'd like to buy a vowel.
05:21Uh-huh.
05:22A.
05:23Yes, two As.
05:27I'd like to buy another vowel.
05:28Mm-hmm.
05:29I.
05:30Yep, one I.
05:35I'd like to buy an O.
05:36And there's an O.
05:38That's it for vowels.
05:40They're gone.
05:45Oh, no.
05:48I know.
05:49I know.
05:50Have to take that back,
05:51and we go to you, Bobby.
05:56Oh, there's still one out there.
05:57$800.
05:58Ah, an R.
06:00Three Rs.
06:03Oh, no.
06:06Well, it was a gamble.
06:07I'm sorry it didn't pay off.
06:09Michelle, it's your turn.
06:16Oh, no, Michelle.
06:19Well, Ruth, you got nothing,
06:21but maybe we can get something.
06:25That becomes an ordinary $500 space.
06:27Right.
06:28A.
06:29M.
06:30M.
06:31M.
06:31M.

06:56And by the way, when we start the next round,
06:58those half cars will be loaded back on the wheels,
07:00so you never know.

15:39$1,500.
15:40Nice good puzzle.
15:41Yeah.
15:42$1,900.
15:43You're $100 shy of $5,000 at this moment,
15:45so still everybody's in this thing
15:47because we have time for another puzzle.
15:48Vanna will gesture.
15:50There it is.
15:51The category is What Are You Doing?
15:53But time is running short,
15:54so I'll give the wheel a final spin.
15:56Ask you to give me a letter for the puzzle.
15:58We have three seconds to solve it.
15:59Vowels worth nothing.
16:00Consonants, after we add 1,000,
16:02will be worth $1,300 apiece.
16:03But again, a tight match.
16:04All these letters are important.
16:05What Are You Doing?
16:06The category.
16:07And, Ruth, we start with you.
16:10You have a letter.
16:11N.
16:12One N.
16:15You're not gonna solve this,
16:16but we'll look at you for three seconds.

16:53Yeah, one R.
17:00Michelle?
17:01W.
17:02No.
17:03Ruth?
17:04R.
17:05Whoops.
17:06That happened.
17:07Don't worry, Robbie.

17:56Thanks, Robbie, very much.
17:57You bet.
17:59Okay.
18:00You won.
18:01Oh, my goodness.
18:02I thought it was something about feeding the motor.
18:03Oh.
18:04The R came out, and I was like, oh.
18:05I know.
18:06Oh, well, you're going to the bonus round anyway.
18:07There you go.
18:09Well, you're having a pretty good night, I would say, over $13,000.
18:13That's all cash.
18:14Who's out in the audience with you?
18:15I have my beautiful mother, Debbie, my amazing sisters, Abby and Emily, and a sweet family
18:20friend, Pat.
18:21All right.
18:22Good.
18:23Well, you have your adjectives all in place.
18:24Very nice.
18:25And we'll get to spinning the wheel now.
18:27Let's go ahead.
18:28And come on along.
18:40We're going to move right down here and try to solve another puzzle, okay?
18:45What are you doing is in category R, S, T, L, M, E.
18:51And now we'll ask you to give us three more consonants and a vowel.
19:02C.
19:03That's one.
19:04D.
19:05Two.
19:06P.
19:07And a vowel.
19:08A.
19:09Well, this will be interesting, because you're going to get one full word, and that's sometimes
19:15helpful.
19:16But that's all you're going to get.
19:19What are you doing?
19:20You have 10 seconds to work it out.
19:23Good luck.
19:24Jogging in place.
19:25Boy, that's it.
19:26Yes, ma'am.
19:27That's amazing.
19:28Wow.
19:29Oh.
19:30Oh, yeah.
19:31Look at that.
19:32Ruth, we're giving you a cash advance in the amount of $30,000.
19:42I like that total better.
19:51$43,050.
19:52Nice job.
19:53Ann and Al will be right back.

20:02You know, when you get a category that sort of tells you there's some letters up there,
20:06like what are you doing, usually it has an I-N-G.
20:08Right.
20:09The question is, do you call a G knowing there's one?
20:11And she didn't, but she had the place, so it worked out fine.
20:13It did.
20:14You get all that?
20:15I get it.
20:16See, there were three Gs in jogging, yes.
20:17Yeah, exactly.
20:19Al, I'd just like to clarify these things.
20:20I think she's patronizing me.
20:23Bye-bye.
