HIGHEST RATED GAME SHOW!
MONEY! MONEY! MONEY!
FUN! FUN! FUN!

Today, we have an audition with Rich Fields as announcer.

First Four: Left-to-right
Microphone Handoff: Rachel


1st IUFB - Sporty his-and-hers golf equipment: Jazz Golf his-ane-hers golf sets including Fat Cat 3 400 CC thin-faced titanium driver, 2 FC3 fairway woods, 8 FC3 irons, and mallet putter (Candace)

Sheila is playing Safe Crackers! Rachel will open the safe to reveal...

A new car: Ford Taurus LX sedan that seats 6, includes 6-cylinder engine, automatic transmission, and air conditioning (Teri)
Also included is stylish luggage: American Tourister 3-piece luggage set (Candace)

The prize package is worth $21,080!

The Safe is now closed by Rachel and set to LOCK.

Sheila can open the safe with the combination set to the price of the luggage using these dials:

0 6 7, 0 6 7, 0 6 7

Sheila sets the dials to 7 6 0. Spin the wheel, and pull the handle!

OPEN

For some reason, the door doesn't open for a brief moment, but the LOCK doesn't flash. It opens and then flashes OPEN for a win. Bob thought it was lost at first, and he doesn't know how that happened. Bob doesn't like such scares, as a contestant could have a heart attack some time.

Sheila wins both prizes!
