Right you are!
*'97 puzzle solve cue*
That solve was just what you needed. Another $1,550 brings you that much closer to Bill. You have $3,900.
Good news for you, and potentially Chris as well: we're not through yet. Round 5 coming up in just a few seconds. The puzzle is as follows.
*puzzle reveal chimes*
The category is Landmark. Matt, you get to start this round.

Most impressive!
*'97 puzzle solve cue*
Playing some small ball in the later rounds. This one actually got you ahead of the game. That $3,000 is enough for you to take the lead with $6,900.
And this game still is not over yet. We'll play yet another round. Vanna will get those monitors in motion.
*puzzle reveal chimes*
*out of time bells*
The category is Proper Name. I'll be the one who gets the wheel in motion for this round. I'll give it a final spin.
*spins the wheel*
If your letter's up there, you'll have two chances to solve the puzzle. Vowels worth nothing, consonants—
$250
—we add $500 to that now. $750 for each one. Bill, call a letter.

You bet!
*'97 puzzle solve cue*
Well, it got pretty hairy for you in the later rounds when Matt got control. Worth mentioning you would have had enough even without the new final spin bonus. What matters is you're going to Bonus Land with $9,166.
That's not all. You're building on a two-day total of $13,491!
Matt, I thought you had it when you seized the wheel and solved those two other puzzles. It all came down to that Speed-Up. Still a terrific all-cash total for daytime standards: $6,900!
It's great when all three of our contestants win something, and I get to say that when third place isn't too shabby. Chris, hope you had fun today. You depart our studio with $1,650.
Bill will get another chance at a nice prize when we come back!

The car, Jim!
Jim: Yes, I hear you. It's a brand new Hyundai Accent! It's all you ever wanted in a car in one tiny little package. It comes with standard equipment including a 1.6-Liter four-cylinder engine, automatic transmission, AM/FM radio with stereo speakers, a five-inch color touchscreen display and a rear-view monitor. It's a terrific prize worth $17,145! Good luck!
Me: And this is your puzzle, Bill. It has a category of Things.
The ampersand's on the house. We also give you RSTLNE.

Another blank down. Strike down some more with three consonants and one vowel.

Well, two of the letters you called are there, and both happen to be pairs, so that's a plus.

Five guesses, Bill. Good luck.
