00:24Thank you, we appreciate that.
00:27You have a job, don't you?
00:28I do.
00:30Hi! Good to see you all.
00:32Yeah, you got the idea. Grab those things, limber up your thumbs.
00:35Our first toss-up is coming up.
00:37$1,000 at stake.
00:38Event is the category.
00:40Dana, let's go, please.
00:52And it's Katie.
00:53A real long weekend.
00:55No, everybody else now.
00:59Michael.
01:00A very long weekend.
01:02Yeah, long no matter how you look at it.
01:04And that was a good guess.
01:06Just with the long word.
01:08Say hello to Michael Ortiz.
01:10How are you, Michael?
01:11From Novato, California.
01:12Tell people where Novato is.
01:14Novato's up in the Bay Area, up in Northern California.
01:16I got you. Married man?
01:17I am married to my beautiful wife, Raquel.
01:19We are the proud parents of three kids.
01:21My 17-year-old, Isaiah.
01:23My 13-year-old, Aliyah.
01:25And my 6-year-old, Elijah.
01:26Love you all.
01:27And you collect beer cans.
01:29I do.
01:30I saw a couple lying around in my garage one day in my man cave.
01:33Put them on a wall and it became art all of a sudden.
01:35Are they mostly empty?
01:36Yeah, they're all empty.
01:37Okay.
01:38Nice to have you here.
01:39Good to meet you.
01:40Hi, Nate.
01:41Hi.
01:42Nate Gonzalez, La Verne, California.
01:43And let's hear the Nate Gonzalez story.
01:45Well, I'm 27 and I'm a freelance graphic designer and digital artist.
01:49I love all things pop culture.
01:50I love to make movie posters, event posters.
01:54I have a wonderful partner named MK who lives with me along with my 91-year-old grandfather who I take care of.
01:59Okay.
02:00That sounds like a full and rewarding life.
02:01Yeah.
02:02Win a lot of money here.
02:03I hope so.
02:04Okay.
02:05Hi, Katie.
02:06Hi, Pat.
02:07Katie Grimm, Pleasant Hill, California.
02:08Let's find out about you.
02:09You're married, right?
02:10I'm married to my fabulous husband, Cameron, of almost three years.
02:12And we have a cute, adorable black lab named Jim.
02:14Now, you look to all, to me, you look like an honest woman.
02:17However.
02:18My maiden name is White.
02:19And did you ever make claims that weren't true to people?
02:22I told pretty much everyone I met when I was a kid that I was related to Vanna.
02:25Uh-huh.
02:26Sorry.
02:27Hi, Vanna.
02:28Hi.
02:29Hey, sis.
02:30And were you?
02:31No.
02:32No, we're not related.
02:33All right.
02:34Well, that's it.
02:35Maybe.
02:36I called you out on national television.
02:37You did.
02:39All right.
02:40You're welcome.
02:41Now, get ready for another toss-up.
02:42This is worth $2,000.
02:43Category is person.
02:44This will also determine who starts the first round.
02:45Let's go.
02:47Katie.
02:48Best-selling author.
02:49Yeah, that's it.
02:50I like the way you're weighing in, too.
02:51Good.
02:52Joel, that means she'll be spinning first.
02:53Let's take a quick look at the puzzle.
02:54The category is phrase.
02:55There it comes.
02:56And now we'll check your spinning prowess.
02:57All right.
02:58All right.
02:59All right.
03:00All right.
03:01All right.

03:12All right.
03:13All right.
03:14All right.
03:16Now, we'll check your spinning prowess.
03:17And so far, it's pretty good.
03:22T.
03:23Well, good news.
03:24There are four T's.
03:25To the best of my knowledge, that's $10,000.
03:26What do you want to do next?
03:27I would like to buy a vowel.
03:28Okay.
03:29A.
03:30One A.
03:31I'd like to buy another vowel.
03:32E.
03:33One A.
03:34All right.
03:35All right.
03:36All right.
03:37All right.
03:38All right.
03:39All right.
03:40All right.
03:41I'd like to buy another vowel.

03:49Afraid not.
03:50No S.
03:51Michael.
03:52650.
03:53H.
03:54Do we have any H's up there?
03:55She's on the move.
03:56That's always a good sign.
03:57One, two, three.
03:58H's.
03:59Okay.
04:00W.
04:01Two W's.
04:02Pick up that wild card.
04:03Do you want to do that?
04:04So you have that and almost $3,000.
04:05What do you want to do?
04:06I'd like to buy another vowel.
04:07Okay.
04:08S.
04:09No.
04:10Afraid not.
04:11No S.
04:12Michael.
04:13650.
04:14H.
04:15Do we have any H's up there?
04:16She's on the move.
04:17That's always a good sign.
04:18One, two, three.
04:19H's.
04:20Okay.
04:21W.
04:22Two W's.
04:23Pick up that wild card.
04:24Do you want to do that?
04:25So you have that and almost $3,000.
04:26What do you want to do?
04:27I'd like to buy a vowel.
04:28Mm-hmm.
04:29An O.
04:30There's one O.
04:31I hate when that happens.
04:32You know the drill.
04:33Everything has to go.
04:34Nate, your turn.
04:35550.
04:36L.
04:37Two L's.
04:38You're on the board.
04:39$1,100.
04:41N.
04:42Yes, two N's.
04:43Hey, Nate, you have $2,500.
04:44I'd like to solve.
04:45Go ahead.
04:46What will they think of next?
04:47Yes.
04:48A.
04:49A.

05:55A.
05:56A.
05:57A.
05:59600.
06:00T.
06:01I believe there are some T's.
06:03A trio of T's.
06:08I'd like to buy an E.
06:10Okay, one E.
06:17Well, this could get interesting. Let's have a letter.
06:20S.
06:21There is one S. So here's the deal, Nate.
06:24That S is worth $1,000, plus you have another $1,550, so about $2,500 or so at stake.
06:29There could be $10,000 back there, but it could also be a bankrupt.
06:32We've got a 50-50 shot.
06:33I might as well take it.
06:34There you go. I like their style, and I hope it's where they're at.
06:39You've got to take that.
06:40I tried.
06:41Exactly. Okay, Katie, your turn.
06:48It's going to be close, Katie. It's got you.
06:50It's a terrible thing to do.
06:55850.
06:56M.
06:57Two M's.
07:01I'd like to buy a vowel.
07:03A.
07:04Yes, one A.
07:13Are we going to do this again?
07:15What a tough day with the wheel so far.
07:17Nate.
07:25Stop, stop, stop.
07:28I hate when that happens. Katie.
07:35Well, that's more like it.
07:37N.
07:38Would you like an N? Would you like three? Would that be good?
07:40Yes!
07:41One time, you can pick that up.
07:43That's Switzerland trip, a rail trip worth over $12,000.
07:46Put that right down there. You also have $1,500 in cash.
07:49What do you want to do?
07:50I would like to buy a vowel.
07:51Okay.
07:52O.
07:53There you go, three O's.
07:57Katie, we're down to $1,250, plus you have that great trip.
08:00What do you think?
08:01I would like to buy another vowel.
08:02Okay.
08:03I.
08:04Yep, that's the way to do it. Two I's.
08:09Buy another, or spin it, or try to solve it?
08:11I will buy the U, please.
08:12The last of the vowels.
08:13Might as well find out where it is.
08:14Maybe that will help you out.
08:20Oh, boy.
08:23Q.
08:24Is there a Q up there by any chance?
08:33All right, let's have a letter.
08:34B.
08:35There is a B. Pick up that gift tag.
08:37It's a $1,000 cash from Zenni.
08:39Eyewear for everyone.
08:41So you have that. You have $4,750.
08:43You have the trip. What do you want to do?
08:44I would like to solve.
08:45Would you please?
08:46Mosquito and badminton net.
08:49Yeah, and even pronounced beautifully.
08:54Wow.
08:55You want to see something magical?
08:57What?
08:58If you pick that trip up and hold it up in front of you and smile, Jim will speak.
09:02Presto.
09:03Here's a place where perfect time means something, Katie.

09:29$12,199.
09:32Well, Katie, you're just like $51 shy of $20,000 in cash and prizes.
09:39At this moment, we have a long way to go, including a prize puzzle coming right up.
09:52What are you wearing is the category for the next puzzle.
09:55There it is.
09:56And Nate, you'll start.
09:57All right.
09:58It's our prize puzzle.
10:04$500.
10:05D.
10:06Sure, one D.
10:11I'll buy the A, please.
10:13All right, he said confidently, and by golly, there is a D.
10:22Nate, I'm sorry.
10:23The wheel has not been kind.
10:24Just keep plugging away there.
10:32$650.
10:33N.
10:34Yes, one N.
10:36Okay, Katie, solve it.
10:39How about a vowel?
10:40Oh, okay.
10:41E.
10:42Let's see here.
10:43Three E's.
10:51$800.
10:52T.
10:53One T.
10:58I'll buy a vowel.
10:59Mm-hmm.
11:00I.
11:01Do we have any I's for this young lady?
11:02I think we do.
11:03Okay.
11:07I'll buy another vowel.
11:08Okay.
11:09O.
11:10Two O's.
11:13All the vowels are gone now.
11:14All the vowels are gone now.
11:20Another close call, and you made it again.
11:22$900.
11:23S.
11:24Yes.
11:25Two S's.
11:36There it is.
11:37So, let's have a letter.
11:39R.
11:40Okay.
11:41There are two R's.
11:42$1,000 for each of those.
11:43So, there are no vowels left, so if you do the express, you keep calling consonants.
11:47You get $1,000 for each one.
11:48If you miss any letter, it's a bankrupt.
11:49You're going to do this, aren't you?
11:50I'm going to do it.
11:51All right.
11:52All right.
11:53What's the letter you want to start with?
11:54L.
11:55Sure.
11:56Two L's.
11:57Another $2,000.
11:58But I won't take the time to relax and think about your next move, which is?
12:02H.
12:03Mm-hmm.
12:07Now what?
12:08P.
12:09Are there any P's up there?
12:13Now, think carefully about this.
12:16What letter do you want?
12:17B.
12:21Would you mind reading what's up there?
12:23Hotel, slippers, and rope.
12:26Yeah, that's it.
12:32You know, the rail tour of Switzerland is great, but it's exhausting.
12:35You know, you're going up the mountains and all that stuff.
12:37When you get back, you're going to need a vacation.
12:39So, how about St. Martin?
12:40I'm down.
12:41I'm down.
12:46Get ready for white sand and sorbet sunsets.
12:48Stay and play in paradise at Oceans at Divi Little Bay in St. Martin.
12:53Located on a private peninsula with crystal-clear bays,
12:56enjoy top-tier service and pure oasis bliss.
13:00$8,500.
13:04Wow.
13:05Well, this is getting out of hand here.
13:07You're welcome.
13:09$38,949 cash and prizes.
13:13But we have more to give away, guys.
13:15Hang in there.
13:16You can't win everything.
13:17We'll be back.
13:27Closed captioning is brought to you by the following.
13:30We call this triple toss-up because there are three of them.
13:33And here's the first.
13:34Thing is the category.

13:52Thunderous applause.
13:53Yeah.
13:54You get some.
13:55$45.
13:56$45.
13:57Don't milk it, Nate.
13:59Here's the second.
14:10Nate.
14:11Rousing cheer.
14:12Yeah.
14:13Give him a rousing cheer.
14:16You know, if you get this third one,
14:18it means $10,000 for the whole deal.
14:21Here we go.
14:31Katie.
14:32Awkward silence.
14:33Yeah, that's the one I'm used to.
14:36Well, Nate couldn't get the 10, but he got $4,000.
14:38He's up to $6,500.
14:40Katie is out of this world.
14:41They're over $40,000.
14:43And Michael has some money, too.
14:44Would like to get some more.
14:45Let's see what happens.
14:46What are you doing is the category for this next round.
14:49Katie, you got that last toss-up.
14:51You control the wheel.
14:52That sound means time running short.
14:53Give it a final spin for us.
14:55We'll add $1,000 to whatever you land on.
14:58And that will be $1,700.
15:01Again, what are you doing?
15:02The category.
15:03Katie, start with you.
15:04Let's start with you.
15:05A letter, please.

15:47No.
15:48Nate.
15:49D.
15:50There's no D.
15:51Katie.
15:52R.
15:53Uh-huh.
15:54There are two Rs.
15:57What are you doing?
16:02Michael.
16:04L.
16:06Nope.
16:07Nate.
16:08I.
16:09Yes, no money for vowels,
16:10but you're gonna get a few of them.
16:11That should help.
16:13One more, Vanna.
16:14Two more, Vanna.
16:22One more.
16:25Katie.
16:26P.
16:28No.
16:29Michael.
16:30C.
16:32One C.
16:34Striking it rich.
16:35Yeah, there you go.
16:39That's more like it.
16:40Well, rich is a strong word, but, uh, that's okay.
16:43You know, you ended up playing a little game here and winning $4,400.
16:46Not a bad deal for you.
16:47Thank you, Michael, very much for being here.
16:49Nate, hear that thunderous applause for you.
16:51I did.
16:52Uh, $6,500.
16:53Thank you very much.
16:54Take it.
16:56Appreciate it.
16:57Who does that leave?

17:03She's going to Switzerland.
17:04She's going to St. Martin.
17:05She's going to Bonusland.
17:06And pick one of these categories.
17:08Thing, food and drink, and phrase.
17:10Food and drink.
17:11All right.
17:12And we'll see how she does.
17:13Probably pretty well, I'm guessing.
17:14Stay with us.
17:16Well, what a night so far.
17:17Congratulations.
17:19Who do you have with you here?
17:20Uh, my husband, Cameron.
17:21All right.
17:22Well, I know he's pretty thrilled, too.
17:23I think he has some vacations coming.
17:24Mm-hmm.
17:25Uh, are you ready to spin this wheel?
17:26Ready.
17:27Go for it.
17:28Whoa.
17:29Strong start.
17:30Stronger than she looked.
17:31There's $100,000 out there somewhere.
17:32It could even be under the G.
17:33We'll find out later.
17:34All right.
17:35Come on over here.
