00:16That's Sing Jack and Janna White.
00:19Don't be nervous.
00:21Thank you, Ted. Thanks, everybody.
00:24Nice to see all of you there. I see you.
00:28Have a fun show, and I'll see you later.
00:31Well, hello! Nice of you to show up. We appreciate that.
00:35Grab those devices. Let's get to the serious business of giving away money.
00:38Fun and Games is the category for our first toss-up.
00:41It's worth $1,000. Here we go.
00:45GINA GONZALEZ-SCALLON
00:56Gina?
00:57Skiing the Rockies.
00:59Yeah, that's it.
01:01Simple.
01:03Gina Gonzalez-Scallon is here from right here in Los Angeles.
01:07You're married, right?
01:09Yes, I am married to my incredible husband, Sean, of six years.
01:12But we have known each other since we were 14 years old.
01:15We're the best of friends until we fell in love when we were about 25.
01:19And here we are. We have an almost two-year-old son named Cruz.
01:23Okay, and let's see, born and raised on Long Island.
01:26I am born and raised on Long Island. True New Yorker.
01:29What part of the Puerto Rican half have you?
01:32Yes, I'm also a proud Boricua, representing Puerto Rico.
01:35My dad was born and raised there, and a lot of my family is still there.
01:38Well, it's good to have you with us. Hope you win a lot more money.
01:41That goes for you, too, Claire. Claire Person, Lodi, California.
01:44You are married as well, right?
01:46Yeah, I've been married to my husband, Nolan, for eight years.
01:49And we have two darling little boys, Henry and Sam.
01:52Special ed teacher?
01:54Yeah, I just started my seventh year teaching as a special education teacher.
01:57Well, obviously you enjoy it. Lodi, that's wine country.
01:59It is. We are surrounded by tons of wineries, delicious wine.
02:03Do you ever partake?
02:05As much as I can. Family and friends.
02:08You threw that last part in in a hurry.
02:10You're on national television, for goodness sake.
02:12Thank you, Claire. Have a good show.
02:14Adrian Weaver, Merrillville, Indiana, right?
02:16Yes, sir.
02:17A real estate broker and a musical theater performer.
02:21Yes, sir.
02:22I'm guessing one pays the bills and one's a sort of...
02:25Well, they both pay the bills, but as a result of the pandemic, I had to pick up another one.
02:29Oh, I got you.
02:31You used to be a competitive swimmer, they tell me.
02:33Yeah, middle school, early high school.
02:35And you were always a Wheel fanatic and you bought all the games and all the...
02:40Well, my mom bought all the games.
02:42That's right. Because we used to have... Do we still have a Wheel of Fortune board game?
02:46I just bought one.
02:48You bought one?
02:49Just recently.
02:50I get $1.50 for that.
02:54Are we through, Adrian? Anything else you'd like to tell America about you?
02:58I'd like to say hello to my mom and my sister and also salute my big sister who is overseas,
03:03serving the United States in the Air Force.
03:05Well, we all salute her. Thanks for being here.
03:09Let's get ready for another toss-up. This one is worth $2,000 and the category is...
03:24Gina.
03:25Dance instructor?
03:26Yeah. Off you go.
03:28Nice job, Gina.
03:29Nice toss-up down there.
03:32She got both of them, so she has $3,000. Got a leg up on things.
03:36First round puzzle is a phrase. There it is. And now we'll see how Gina spins.
03:46$6.50.
03:47Tea.
03:48There is a tea. Actually, two of them.
03:53I'd like to buy a vowel.
03:54Yes.
03:55An E.
03:56Can you find some Es up there? That would be very nice. It would make her happy.
04:01Make me happy. There you go.
04:03I'd like to buy another vowel.
04:05Sure.
04:06An A.
04:07Two As.
04:17R.
04:18Yeah, there are two Rs. Pick up the wild card. Do something wild with the card. There you go.
04:24Alright, you got that and you have $1,800. You can put that down. What do you want to do?
04:28I will buy a vowel.
04:31An I.
04:32Doing fine. Two Is.
04:38This is going to be close.
04:43S.
04:44Yeah, another pair of letters. Two Ss.
04:49I'll buy a vowel.
04:50O.
04:51One O.
04:55I'll buy another vowel.
04:56Which one?
04:57A U.
04:58That's the only vowel left and it's going to help you because there are three of them.
05:07900.
05:08L.
05:09Yes, two Ls.
05:13$4,150. She's thinking. She's thinking.
05:17I'm going to solve it.
05:18Okay, go ahead.
05:19What is your guilty pleasure?
05:22Yes, that's it.
05:24Wow.
05:26Well, you're off to a very nice start. You got both toss-ups. You got the first round and you already have $7,150.
05:32Show America your wild card. You'll get that as well.
05:35But we're going to spread the wealth around here. Hang in. We'll be back to play some more with you in just a minute.
05:44Wheels making spirits bright.
05:46I could be your Secret Santa.
05:48Everything I win, you could win.
05:50It's our Secret Santa holiday giveaway.
05:52I love Secret Santa.
05:53Wheel watchers could win whatever the contestants win, from cash to magical Disney vacations.
05:58Watch Wheel next week for your spin ID to see if you've won.
06:01Happy holidays and good luck.
06:04$10,000.
06:08All right, thank you, sir. Before and after is the category for this next round. There it is.
06:13Claire, you get to spin now.
06:15Go, Claire.
06:22Oh, not quite. Still $500.
06:25S.
06:26Yes, one S.
06:30I'd like to buy a vowel.
06:31Yeah.
06:32An E.
06:33We have Es. Three of them.
06:43Aha. Okay, let's have a letter.
06:46T.
06:47There is one T. That's $1,000. So not the risk, not too big.
06:51$1,000 plus you have $250. Could turn that into $10,000.
06:55As you know, it could also be a bankrupt. You lose your turn and all that.
06:57Are you going to do it?
06:58I'm going to go for it.
06:59Well, I hope it works out. Pick it up. Let's see the $10,000.
07:01That's what we want, and it is the $10,000.
07:07There you go.
07:08Oh, no. I'd like to buy a vowel.
07:10Yeah.
07:11An A.
07:12One A.
07:17Boy, this is going to be close. And look at there.
07:23What letter would you like?
07:24R.
07:25Oh, pick up the $1,000,000.
07:29There you go.
07:30Boy, if she can control that through the end of the round and win this round,
07:33she would have control of that $1,000,000.
07:35Got a lot down there, and no cash to spend, however.
07:38So you need to spend again.
07:40Okay.
07:42$800.
07:47$500.
07:48N.
07:49Two Ns.
07:52Well, now you have some money in case you want to do any buying. Up to you.
07:55I'd like to buy an O.
07:57Yeah. Three Os.
08:07$850.
08:08H.
08:09Let's see. I'm afraid there's no H.
08:11Adrian.
08:18C.
08:20Two Cs. Pick that up if you would. That's worth $7,400, that trip to Miami.
08:25You have that, and you have $1,000 cash. What do you want to do?
08:33$500.

09:27Yeah, please, go ahead.
09:29Conversation, piece of gum.
09:31Yeah, there you go.

13:12Oh.
13:14Gina.
13:16Naturally curly hair?
13:18Yeah, that was easy to do.
13:20Sorry that happened, but that's all right.

14:16If you would please, we'll add $1,000 to whatever you land on.

14:22$1,500.

15:49Nice job.
15:51Well, if there's any bad news at all,
15:53she fell a little bit short of getting to the bonus round,
15:55but I don't think you feel too badly about it.
15:57It was a nice second place total.
16:00$17,750.
16:04Well, I'm glad you came up with that $2,000.
16:06I wish it had been more, but it looks like you had a good time.
16:09I did. I had a great time.
16:11And we're glad you were here. Thank you very much.
16:13Thank you so much.
16:15Who does that leave? Who am I looking for?
16:17There he is. Hi, how are you?
16:19What do you got there?
16:21$19,950.
16:23Show America your wild card.
16:25You're taking that.
16:27Now pick a category.
16:29Thing, place, or phrase.
16:31Place.
16:33I don't know why I say it like that.
16:35Sounds interesting.
16:37We'll put it back and see what happens.
16:43Well, here you are in bonus land.
16:45Congratulations. Who do you have with you here in the studio?
16:47My cousin Kara is here cheering me on.
16:49Yes, she is.
16:51And she'll just go crazy if you win something else.
16:53Now, I notice you have a wild card.
16:55I'll take control of that.
16:59Because you have other things to do.
17:01This will get you an extra consonant.
17:03We'll get to that later.
17:05Right now, go ahead and spin the wheel.
17:07Okay.
17:09It's $100,000 out there somewhere.
17:11It might even be...
17:13Under the dreaded ampersand.
17:15Take this. Come on with me.
17:17Right over there, please.
17:19Now, you chose place.
17:21And when you did that, remember, I went,
17:23Ooh.
17:25R, S, T, L, M, E.
17:33Your turn to go to work.
17:35Three more consonants, one more vowel.
17:37Z.
17:39C.
17:41S.
17:43H.
17:45And a vowel.
17:47O.
17:49All right.
17:51Now, you have this wild card.
17:53You get one more consonant.
17:55Which one would you like?
17:57G.
17:59Sorry.
18:01That's all right.
18:03It's important stuff.
18:05Audience, please, nothing from you.
18:07Can she do it?
18:09You'll find out soon.
18:11Place, 10 seconds to try to talk it out.
18:13Good luck.
18:15An old farmhouse?
18:17Yeah, that's it.
18:19Let's do it.
18:21Oh, my gosh.
18:23Oh, my gosh.
18:29Aah!
18:35Gina, here comes a windfall of cash.
18:37$50,000.
18:43Well, when you add it all up,
18:45and that's quite a lot of adding,
18:47$69,950.
18:49No wonder I went, Ooh.
18:51Oh, thank you.
18:53Hey.
18:57Does she know she didn't win?
18:59I feel like I won.
19:01Do you miss Wheel when it's not on?

19:15Sparkly is very nice.
19:17We get a little jaded here
19:19with all the money we give away.
