00:15including the good-looking Buick Century LTD.
00:22For someone you love, a Sapphire Harts.
00:27And this is very special, a limited-edition signed
00:31Norman Rockwell lithograph.
00:34Over $114,000 just waiting to be won on Wheel of Fortune.
00:40And now, here's your host, Pat Sajak.
00:44Hi, thank you. Thanks, Zach.
00:47Thank you all very much, and welcome to Wheel of Fortune.
00:50And now, please say hello to our hostess.
00:52Here is Vanna White.
00:54All right. Where are you?
01:01Well, this is it. You ready?
01:03Debbie Patton is ready, I'll bet, from Prince George, Virginia.
01:06Yes.
01:07What do you do back there, Debbie?
01:08Wife to an army officer, and I have two children,
01:11and I work for a publisher.
01:13Have you had to do a little traveling over the years?
01:15Just a bit.
01:16Spent four years in Germany, among other places.
01:18That's exciting, and we welcome you to our stage
01:20and wish you a lot of luck on our show.
01:22This is Joy Canova, who has come from Wheaton, Maryland.
01:25That's right.
01:26With some friends, apparently.
01:27Long way.
01:28A medical assistant back there.
01:29Yes, for the major obstetricians in the suburban Washington, D.C. area.
01:34Of course, I wouldn't have it any other way.
01:36Tell me about your family.
01:38I have three grown children, Scott, Stacy, and Kristen,
01:41and a beautiful daughter-in-law, Paula.
01:43Yeah, and you're in the dog breeding?
01:44Yeah, I'm hoping to get back in that, Yorkshire Terriers.
01:47Okay, good luck on our show.
01:48Joy?
01:49Thank you very much.
01:50And this is Lee Sampson from Victorville, California.
01:52Everything okay out in Victorville?
01:53That's right.
01:54It's wonderful.
01:55Yeah, it's a swell place.
01:56What do you do out there?
01:57Well, I'm a bookkeeper for a country club, and I'm married to a wonderful guy.
02:02Good.
02:03I have a dog and a cat.
02:04Okay, all right.
02:05And what are their names?
02:06Bogey and Turbo.
02:08And Turbo would be the cat.
02:10Yes, that's her.
02:11Lucky guess.
02:12All right, let's spin the wheel.
02:14$1,000 is the top dollar value for this round.
02:17Try not to get bankrupt.
02:18If you do, you lose your cash, but not your merchandise, because Turbo,
02:21once you buy a prize, it's yours to keep.
02:23Here's our first puzzle.
02:24It's an event, and just before the show, we do numbers to see which start the game.
02:28Debbie, it's going to be you.
02:29Good luck, everybody.

11:02Lee.
11:10And look at this.
11:13Lee, I've never said this to a woman before,
11:16but pick up that car and put it in front of you.
11:19That $13,000 Buick will be yours
11:22if you end up solving a puzzle
11:23without hitting it bankrupt along the way.
11:24150 under there, pick a letter first.
11:26Is there an N?
11:27Yes, one N, we'll put it up there.
11:29Now you have just $150, but if you have that car,
11:32what do you want to do?
11:33That's a spinner car.
11:34I'll solve the puzzle.
11:34All right.
11:36First name of the theater, Helen Hayes.
11:40No, that is not correct.
11:41I'm sorry.
11:42Use that free spin, okay.
11:43You can spin or you can try again.
11:44I'll try it again.
11:45Okay.
11:46First lady of the theater, Helen Hayes.
11:49Yeah.
11:54That's the presence of mind here to use that.
11:56Good for you.
