01:46All right, good for you.
01:47Good for you, Megan.
01:48That's my song.
01:50Yep.
01:51It would have been embarrassing if you didn't get that.
01:52I was like, wait a second.
01:53Coming out of the gate strong.
01:54How many times have people listened to that song?
01:56Billions, right?
01:57Yeah, a lot of times.
01:58A lot of times.
01:59A lot of people, like, see me outside,

02:02Thanks.
02:03Grammy Award-winning singer-songwriter, as I said,
02:05and you're a big fan of Christmas music, right?
02:07Yes.
02:08I have a new holiday song out called Gifts for Me.
02:09Check it out.
02:10I love it.
02:11I love Christmas music.
02:12I know.
02:13And it can never start too soon, Christmas time.
02:14Because your birthday, Christmas Eve.
02:15How do you remember that?
02:16My mom reminds me every year to text you.
02:18I don't recall getting a text last year.
02:20What?
02:21That's crazy.
02:22I do it every year.
02:23Next year, there's a new album and a new tour
02:24that you're going to be embarking on.
02:25Yeah.
02:26I have an album called Toy With Me coming out in April,
02:28and then I'm going on tour this summer with my kids.
02:31It's going to be wild and crazy three months.
02:33What charity are you playing for tonight, Megan?
02:35I'm playing for Save the Children,
02:36because I love what they do for all the children
02:38around the entire world.
02:39Great to have you.
02:40Thanks for being here.
02:41Taye Diggs!
02:42Hey!
02:43Broadway, film, TV star.
02:46But Broadway seems to me like it would be the most intense
02:50of everything.
02:51Is that the case?
02:52Yes, you're correct.
02:53I was just on Broadway.
02:54I did a small run in Moulin Rouge.
02:57Yes, congratulations.
02:58And thank you very much.
02:59And I was reminded how difficult the rehearsal is.
03:02But nothing rivals that energy that the audience gives you.
03:07And it's a lot of fun to be in a holiday classic,
03:09a holiday movie as well.
03:10Oh, yes, it is.
03:11Yes, it is.
03:12I just finished one called His, Hers, and Ours,
03:15and the romantic comedy, that genre,
03:18I hadn't been in one in a while,
03:19and it rekindled my love for acting.
03:22What would you do if you weren't acting?
03:24Like, what would be the fallback career?
03:26I like what you're doing.
03:27I like, you know, the talk show, game show.
03:30I love that.
03:31I've had a little bit of experience, and it's fun.
03:34I agree.
03:35Are you having a good time?
03:37I'm having the best time ever.
03:38I can't wait to get to work every day.
03:39I sped here.
03:40I didn't break the law, but I got here fast.
03:42Tell me what charity you're playing for, Tay.
03:44The American Heart Association,
03:46because I love what they do for kids as well.
03:49Good to have you, and good luck tonight.
03:50Thank you. Good to see you, my man.
03:51And here he is, Sebastian Maniscalco.
03:54I just spent two hours with you
03:56watching your new comedy special.
03:58It Ain't Right Comedy Tour is active right now.
04:01A lot of things that just aren't right, Sebastian.
04:03You know what is right?
04:05No one's really commented on this yet.
04:07You're the only guy that could pull off a turtleneck.
04:12Yeah.
04:13I mean, you don't really see that a lot nowadays,
04:16but Seacrest, beautiful.
04:18Over the Adam's apple.
04:20You know why?
04:22As you talked about in your special,
04:23when you start to age, we're about the same age.
04:25I'm turning 51.
04:26You are 51 from what I understand.
04:28Yeah, yeah.
04:29But the neck, see?
04:30Yeah.
04:31This just masks any issue
04:32that might be going on with the neck.
04:33So when I turn...
04:35It's nice and sharp, Sebastian.
04:37Yeah.
04:38But congratulations, that special number one
04:40in its first 24 hours.
04:41Oh, excellent.
04:42Thank you. Thank you.
04:43Appreciate it.
04:45So I was watching, and I mean,
04:47it's a lot of material to cover.
04:49You're in the arena.
04:50There's no teleprompter, no cue cards.
04:51What is that preparation like for you?
04:53Comedy's all about being in the moment.
04:55Yeah.
04:56So I like to, if a joke's not working, pivot,
04:59go to another joke.
05:00So I know it back and forth, so it's not a problem.
05:02Just watch the special.
05:04You and Vanna have history.
05:06Now, stop everything, cast, crew.
05:09What?
05:10What kind of history you guys got?
05:11Ooh.
05:12So I used to work at the Four Seasons Hotel
05:13in Beverly Hills.
05:14This was years ago.
05:15A very sweet woman came in.
05:17She ordered a drink.
05:18I come back to the bar, and I said,
05:20I think 109, that the girl is giving me vibes.
05:24Right?
05:25The bartender's like,
05:27that's Vanna White.
05:28I don't think she's looking to pick up
05:29a struggling waiter at the Four Seasons Hotel.
05:33Do you remember that?
05:35And were you giving me...
05:37Vibe?
05:38Vibe.
05:39I think I was giving you some vibes.
05:41I mean, that was back then.
05:43I am taking now, but back then, yep.
05:46Okay, I was single too.
05:47I wish I would have known that.
05:48Happily married now.
05:50But I wish you would have came on a little stronger.
05:52We could have had a special life together.
05:57With an employee discount at the Four Seasons Hotel, too.
06:00Yeah.
06:01And tonight you're playing for a great organization.
06:03Tell me about your charity.
06:04It's California Community Foundation's Tag Your It Foundation.
06:10We're supporting three things.
06:12Veterans of the military, Alzheimer's,
06:14and children's education.
06:16All three have, uh, something in my heart.
06:19So, uh, happy to be here.
06:21Happy to spin the wheel.
06:22Happy to be with the contestants.
06:24You, Vanna, and a sold-out crowd.
06:27All right.
06:28On that note, thank you, sold-out crowd.
06:31Grab those little devices one more time.
06:33Your second toss-up here worth $2,000.
06:36The category is Tongue Twister.
06:38Let's see how you do with this one.
06:41And we are off, E-dubs.
06:53The music's so good.
06:57Ooh. Ooh.
06:59Come on.
07:00I got it.
07:01Tay.
07:02Red leather, yellow leather.
07:04Well said.
07:05A star of Broadway can pull that off.

07:08$2,000.
07:11All right, the first round here,
07:13$5,000 can be added to the winner's total.

08:03Okay, okay.
08:04$1,650.

08:07Yeah, we do have one O.
08:09Okay.

08:13I'm gonna go with another vowel.
08:15Yeah, okay, sure.
08:16I'm gonna go with an I.
08:17I?
08:18Yeah, it seems to be working for you,
08:19so why not stick with it, right?
08:20There's two I's.
08:22I'm gonna spin.
08:23Sold out crowd loves it.
08:24Sold out crowd?
08:25Love it.
08:26All right.

08:42Yeah, you got two N's coming at you, Megan Trainor.
08:48$900.
08:50Can I have a W?
08:52No, I'm afraid there's no W.
08:54Tate, we take it to you.
08:55Okay.
08:57Remember, human or animal is a category we're looking at here.
09:02$500.
09:03Let's go with a B.
09:04Yes, there is one B.
09:06I'd like to buy a vowel.
09:11A U.
09:13Mm-hmm.
09:14There is a U.
09:17So the vowels are all wiped out.
09:18That's what the closely sound means.
09:19Okay.
09:20I would like to solve it.
09:22Let's hear it.
09:23Sebastian's upset about this.
09:24I get it.
09:25Go ahead, T-Diggs.
09:26A bull in a china shop.
09:28There it is.
09:29Good job.
09:34I'd like to thank you both.
09:35That was really good.
09:36And thank you.
09:37He was giving me this look over here like, I know it.
09:39I know.
09:40If he screws up, it's coming to me and I got this one.
09:41But I got it.
09:42I got it.
09:43$5,000 added to your total here.
09:45That gives you $72.50, Tate Diggs.

09:48Celebrity Wheel of Fortune returns right after this.
09:51You're in the lead, Tate Diggs.
09:53Thanks for joining us.
09:56Come on back in to Celebrity Wheel of Fortune.
09:58Welcome back.
09:59We've got $4 million wedges on the wheel.
10:02$10,000 will be added to the winner's score in this round
10:05when you solve the puzzle.
10:06And the category, celebrities, is before and after.
10:09So, two things with a phrase linked in between.
10:12Something common in the middle.
10:13Sebastian, you're up.
10:14He's got an intense look on his face.
10:17He's got no money yet.
10:18That's about to change.
10:19I can tell.
10:21$500.
10:22I'm gonna go with a T.
10:23There are two Ts.
10:25Okay.
10:28I'd just like to take a moment before I spin,
10:31which you don't know up there.
10:33Maybe you guys don't know at home.
10:35Wheel is extremely heavy.
10:37It is.
10:38And when I go and spin it, I got a tight jacket on.
10:41And the back of the jacket might split open during a spin.
10:47So, if that happens, please let me know.
10:50We'll help you.
10:51I've got a turtleneck.
10:52Should've won my turtleneck today.
10:54I've got one backstage in your size.
11:00Uh-oh.
11:01Oh, boy.
11:02I got no one.
11:03See what they did.
11:04See what happens?
11:05That's good.
11:06Karma.
11:07Karma.
11:08All right.
11:09Now, Meghan Trainor, to your benefit, you're on the wheel.
11:10It's heavy.
11:11You know that.
11:12It is actually ways more than you think.
11:14I think something good.
11:15500.
11:16An N.
11:17You may have two.
11:18May I have two?
11:19A couple of Ns.
11:20$1,000 now for Meghan Trainor.
11:25500.
11:26May I please have an S?
11:29We have no S.
11:31Sorry about that.
11:32Okay, Tay.
11:33700.
11:34A B, please.
11:35Yeah, we do have one B.
11:36Let's show you that.
11:37All right.
11:38Can I buy a vowel?
11:39Mm-hmm.
11:40A U, please.
11:41Mm-mm.
11:42Nope, no U.
11:43Sebastian, over to you.
11:44500.
11:45All right.
11:46May I have a R?
11:47Yes, you may.
11:48There's one R.
11:49Now you got some dough.
11:50All right.
11:51I'd like to buy a vowel.
11:52Let's go with an O.
11:53Okay.
11:54All right.
11:55All right.
11:56All right.
11:57May I have a R?
11:58Yes, you may.
11:59There's one R.
12:00Okay.
12:01All right.
12:02Let's go with an O, please.
12:04Yeah, we do have an O.
12:07You have just enough if you want to buy another one.
12:10Let me get an E.
12:12Just want to make sure you know the options.
12:13That was a good idea.
12:14There are four.
12:19550.
12:20Let's go with an L.
12:22Mm-hmm.
12:23There is an L.
12:24Yes.
12:25Okay.
12:29650.
12:30Gee.
12:31G.
12:32Gonna get a G.
12:35Okay.
12:38Uh, let me buy a vowel.
12:40Let me go with an I.
12:42Got three of those to fill in.
12:44That's gonna be pretty helpful, I think.
12:50All right.
12:51Okay.
12:52That's it.
12:53Ta-da.
12:54Guys, that's it?
12:55And a million dollars?
12:56I might not even get...
12:57Oh, God.
12:58Um...
12:59Let me try a, um...
13:01Let me try an H.
13:05I think they were managing expectation.
13:06There's no H for that.
13:07Oh, no.
13:08All right.
13:09Over to you, Meghan Trainor.
13:10You got this.
13:11Come on.
13:12Think about it.
13:13Before and after.
13:14Time's up to think about it.
13:15With the bankrupt...
13:16It's A?
13:17Okay.
13:18Yeah.
13:19All right.
13:20Here comes the whistle.
13:21What is happening?
13:22That means we're over to you, Sebastian.
13:23She might want to...
13:24Oh, yeah.
13:25Let me see if you have an A.
13:26She's back up there.
13:27All right.
13:28Two A's.
13:29Let those populate.
13:30See what that does for you.
13:31Vowels are gone.
13:32Twinkle, twinkle.
13:33Now, you can solve or spin.
13:34I gotta go spin.
13:35Sorry.
13:36I got it.
13:37I got it.
13:38Somebody's got it.
13:39Somebody's got it.
13:40Somebody's got it.

14:01It's not gonna be there.
14:02Let's go with an M.
14:03Yeah!
14:04No M.
14:05Oh, no!
14:06I feel like Meghan Trainor has a solution to all of this drama right now.
14:10Meghan?
14:11Diaper Genie in a Bottle.
14:13That's it!
14:14Yes!

20:50That's, this is, I'm stunned.
20:52Vanna was out of your league.
20:53Can't believe it.
20:54Honey.
20:55You don't have to say that to Vanna.
20:56We know she is.
20:57It's okay.

21:46Grab those devices.
21:47You know how this works.
21:48The first toss-up will be worth $1,000.
21:50The category is easy question.
21:55Easy question.
21:56Here we go.
22:07Menescalco.
22:08Naughty or nice?
22:09Nice.
22:10There he goes again.
22:11Well done.
22:12Well done.
22:13$1,000 for Sebastian.
22:16Now, during the break, he was beating himself up a little bit about that last bonus round.
22:22What was going on in your head there?
22:24I'm just trying to figure out how I got old-fashioned with two letters and then couldn't get out of my league with basically the puzzle right there.
22:33And what did you deduce?
22:34Like, what do you think happened?
22:35I think I was, uh, under a lot of pressure and, uh, I didn't, uh, take it too well.
22:40But I'm ready to redeem myself right now.
22:42Okay.
22:43He's a competitor.
22:44And he bounces back.
22:46He's gonna have a strong second half.
22:48I feel it.
22:49All right.
22:50Meghan Trainor.
22:51Does everyone call you Meghan Trainor?
22:52Meghan Trainor.
22:53Yeah, Meghan Trainor.
22:54Hi.
22:55That's Meghan Trainor, everybody.
22:56Hey.
22:57Hello.
22:58You get into the holiday spirit very early, right?
23:01Yes.
23:02I'm aggressive.
23:03Uh, the day after Halloween, it is Christmas in my house.
23:05Wow.
23:06So I decorate and I get all...
23:07All the gifts are already purchased and wrapped by November 5th.
23:11And is that a holiday thing or a Capricorn thing?
23:13A Capricorn obsession thing.
23:15Are you then sad when all the decorations come down?
23:18Yes, but I hold it out till as long as I can.
23:20And how long can one do that appropriately?
23:22Like January 6th to the 10th.
23:23I'll go crazy.
23:24Okay.
23:25Okay, so you push it as far as you can.
23:26Yeah.
23:27Then it's the letdown.
23:28Yeah.
23:29Then I'm sad.
23:30Good luck in this second half tonight.
23:32All right.
23:33So Tay, I understand you did a little research on everybody today.
23:35Did you go deep with the due diligence?
23:37Actually, uh, it's a trip because just two days ago, I binged a couple of your specials
23:44in a row.
23:45So I didn't know I was doing research, but I was.
23:48And, uh, yeah, you're kind of funny.
23:50Oh, thank you.
23:51Was there any particular bit that struck you?
23:54You're really good at the physical comedy because you have this kind of tough kind of
23:58Italian thing.
23:59But then the fact that you can go into the physical comedy, it throws you off.
24:03And it's really, uh, it's really something special.
24:05That's very sweet of you to say.
24:06Thank you, sir.
24:07He does do a lot of good physical comedy.
24:09Yeah.
24:10All right.
24:11Grab those devices one more time.
24:12We're into our second toss up here.
24:13This one's gonna be worth $2,000.
24:15And the category is rhyme time.
24:17Here it comes.
24:18Okay.
24:19Rhyme time.
24:20Ooh.
24:21Sebastian.
24:22Shucks.
24:23I'm a word nerd.
24:24He does it again.
24:25I've never heard that.
24:26Oh, word rhymes with nerd.
24:27I get it.
24:28There it is.
24:29Oh, rhyme time.
24:30Got it.
24:31Warming up for part two, right?
24:32That's what we're doing.
24:33Now, listen, it's $5,000 will be added to the winner's total for this one.
24:35And the category is never have I ever.
24:36So think about that.
24:37Don't need the devices for this.
24:38Okay.
24:39You can put those away.
24:40You will start Sebastian on the wheel.
24:41Give it a good one.
24:42And we are off and running.
24:43Here we go.
24:44Here we go.
24:45Here we go.
24:46Here we go.

25:24Uh, let's go with an E.
25:26Okay, okay.
25:27All right, we have a pair of Es to show you.
25:29There they are.
25:32Um, would I like to buy another vowel?
25:34Why not?
25:35Let's go with an A.
25:36Uh-huh. Two As.
25:41Uh, I'm gonna go with an I.
25:42Okay, there's one, Vanna.

25:51Uh, could I go with a G?
25:53Mm-hmm. There is a G.
25:55Mm, yes.
25:57Uh, you know what?
25:58Let me buy a vowel, an O.
26:00Okay, we have three.
26:02That was a good choice.
26:03Ooh!
26:04Let us see how that helps you out.
26:07Ooh!
26:09Oh, no, no, no, no.
26:10Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no.

26:32I know, I know.
26:33I'm sure we'll get back to you.
26:34Okay.
26:35Meanwhile, Tay, what do you think?
26:37Give it a good spin.
26:38I'd like to spin!
26:39500.
26:40Let me get a B, please.
26:41Yeah, there are one, two, three Bs coming after Tay.
26:42Oh, my God.
26:43Oh, my God.
26:44Oh, my God.
26:45It is $6.50 this time, my friend.
26:46A P.
26:47There is no P.
26:48No!
26:49So, remember, it is never have I ever, and then whatever that might be.
26:51Sebastian.
26:52Uh-uh.
26:53Come on, man.
26:54Can I solve the puzzle?

31:57Right back on Celebrity Wheel of Fortune after this.
32:00Come on back in to Celebrity Wheel of Fortune tonight.
32:07So, Meghan Trainor's in the lead right now,
32:09if you just got here.
32:09She's also got that million dollar wedge in play.
32:12If she goes on to the bonus round,
32:13she is playing for $1 million for her charity.
32:17We're up to the triple toss-up.
32:18Same category.
32:20Each one of these is worth $5,000.
32:21And the category is on the map.
32:24So, go ahead and grab your device there.
32:26Now, Sebastian, it will work.
32:29When you buzz in, you'll hear a sound.
32:30Here we go.
32:41I got it.
32:42Tay.
32:43The Virgin Islands.
32:44Correct, Tay.
32:47All right, finally!
32:48$5,000.
32:49Go, Tay!
32:50Finally, thank you.
32:51I appreciate that.
32:52I appreciate that.
32:53Number two.
32:55I got a little money, a little bread.
32:56Here's the second one.
32:57Okay.
33:05Tay.
33:05The Cayman Islands.
33:06Yes!
33:07Oh, my God!
33:08A little bit more bread.
33:10Come on!
33:12Now you jumped to second place so far.
33:13Second half here right now with $10,000.
33:16And we have got the third and final toss-up.
33:18Take a look.
33:21Wait.
33:35Tay.
33:38The Island of Misfit Toys.
33:41Yes!
33:41He gets it!
33:46So, with all three of those toss-ups, that puts you in the lead to the second half.
33:50Oh, how quickly!
33:51$15,000.
33:53How quickly times change, right?
33:54Yes.
33:55It was nice.
33:56Yes.
33:56$20,000 will be added to the winner's total here.
33:59The category is What Are You Doing?
34:01It's a big, big round.
34:03Tay, you'll start on the wheel.
34:05$20,000.
34:10Nice.
34:11I'm going to start out with a G, please.
34:14$700,000 for one G.
34:17Yeah.
34:21$650,000.
34:22May I have an N, please?
34:24It's in Nancy.
34:25Mm-hmm.
34:26Two N's for you.
34:29All right.
34:31It is final spin time.
34:33That's what that sound means.
34:34So, Tay's going to give the wheel a final spin.
34:40We'll add $1,000 to where it lands.
34:45Constant is worth $1,800.
34:48Vowels are worth no money, but you can use them.
34:50Okay.
34:50So, they can help you.
34:50You can call them if you want.
34:51Okay.
34:52The category is What Are You Doing?
34:53Tay, call a letter.
34:55I.
34:57Two I's.
34:58Two I's.
35:01So, now three seconds to try and solve it.
35:04You've got a long way to go, but that's the plan.
35:06All right, Sebastian.
35:07A.
35:09Two A's.
35:10Again, worth no additional money, but here they come.
35:17Oh.
35:18No clue.
35:19Megan.
35:20Yeah?
35:20Climbing a mountain.
35:22No.
35:22No.
35:23We still have time.
35:24Sorry.
35:24I don't know what's going on.
35:25Who knows what's going on?
35:26What's going on?
35:27I don't know.
35:27I'm so panicked.
35:28I'm sorry.
35:29Don't worry.
35:30That's Tay.
35:31Take over.
35:32M.
35:33I'm sorry.
35:34No M.
35:35Back to you, Sebastian.
35:36What?
35:37C.
35:39No C.
35:40Now, Megan, call a letter.
35:41It could be a constant or a vowel.
35:44L.
35:46There are two L's, so we're going to put them in.
35:48When Vanna clears the puzzle, you have three seconds.
35:50Now you can try and guess what the puzzle is.
35:54Are you talking to me?
35:55Yeah.
35:56Now I'm talking to Tay.
35:57Tay?
35:58Same drill for you.
36:02A E.
36:04Yes, there are two E's.
36:06Okay.
36:07So we'll put them in.
36:07You have three seconds.
36:08It's trying.
36:10What are you doing?
36:14Okay, can I just say it?
36:15It's the buzzer man.
36:16No, it's too late.
36:17Yeah, it's too late.
36:17Sebastian.
36:18I love this game.
36:20It's a T.
36:22No T, Megan.
36:23Can I try to solve it?
36:24You don't have to raise your hand.
36:25Can I try to solve it?
36:26Call a letter because you'll get more money.
36:27Do you know it?
36:27Do you know it?
36:28F.
36:30There's no F.
36:31What are you talking about?
36:33Okay.
36:33Wow.
36:33Okay, Tay.
36:35B.
36:36There is a B.
36:40What are you doing?
36:42No idea.
36:45You look so confident, though.
36:46Sebastian is in a two-point stance.
36:49Let's go with an O.
36:52Yeah, there is an O.
36:57No more vowels.
36:59What?
37:01Okay, Megan, now your turn.
37:02Call a letter.
37:03W.
37:03W.
37:03Yep.
37:04Mm-hmm.
37:05A-W.
37:06Well played, well played.
37:07S.
37:08No, you have to.
37:09Oh, sorry.
37:09Now try and solve it.
37:10Oh, now try and solve it.
37:11Yeah.
37:13Oh, my God.
37:14God.
37:15It's okay, Tay.
37:16H.
37:17No, Sebastian.
37:18You're kidding me.
37:19I got the, I got it.
37:20Okay.
37:21Call a letter if you know it because you get more money.
37:23D.
37:24Two Ds.
37:25All right, that's good.
37:26Now do it.
37:27Go.
37:28Blowing at deadline.
37:30That's it, yeah.
37:34Wow.
37:35My.
37:35That's amazing.
37:39Wow.
37:40Now I'm worried about you pulling something the more you keep solving it.
37:43You're going down there.
37:44I just pulled a, uh, my pariformis.
37:46You're getting down there.
37:47Well, it was a great performance, though.
37:48We're adding $20,000 to your score for solving that.
37:52That takes you to $31,600.
37:55Well done, well done.
37:55Just for part two.
37:56Yeah.
37:57And guess where we get to go?
37:59Oh.
37:59To the bonus round.
38:00Bonus round.
38:01All right, I'll be back in a second and tally it all up.
38:03So, Megan, $11,000.
38:05This is great.
38:06$12,150 in the second half.
38:09For the night, $23,150.
38:11We're kicking it up to $30,000 to save the children.
38:15My best.
38:17Appreciate you.
38:18Let's see.
38:19Some scores here and some cash pay digs.
38:21First half, $17,250.
38:24Second half, $15,000.
38:25Now, $32,250 for the American Heart Association.
38:30Good work.
38:32Always good to be here.
38:33Always.
38:34Amen.
38:34And we take another journey to the bonus round.
38:37Sebastian, look at this.
38:38$26,000 in the first half.
38:40$31,600 in the second round.
38:42Total of $57,600 for Taggart Foundation.
38:45That is excellent.
38:47And we have three choices here.
38:49Categories are thing.
38:50What are you doing a phrase?
38:51I'm going to go with thing this time around.
38:53Thing.
38:53All right.
38:54Let's see what he can do after this.
38:57Probably a good choice.
38:59It's his second appearance here, Sebastian, in the bonus round.
39:03$57,600 for charity so far.
39:06Congratulations on that.
39:08Now we're going for more.
39:10He's going to spin the wheel here and see if he can solve the puzzle.
39:14You pick the thing.
39:15Meghan Trainor thought that was a...
39:17I don't know if she thought it was a good idea or not such a good idea.
39:19Is this not something that people do?
39:21Is thing not the thing to pick?
39:23Meghan?
39:24I wouldn't have done that.
39:25It could be anything.
39:27Way to build him up.
39:28All right.
39:29You got it.
39:30Spin the wheel.
39:31Let's go.
39:37All right.
39:37We're going to have a good amount here.
39:39All big numbers inside the envelopes.
39:41And it is the E.
39:42So I'll grab that.
39:45And then we'll head down here.
39:47So yeah, like I was saying, you got thing.
39:50That's what you chose.
39:50All right.
39:51We will give you the R, S, T, L, N, and the E.
39:56Then you know what to do.
39:59Wow.
40:00All right.
40:01Oh, wow.
40:02Good start.
40:03So look at that and think about the letters.
40:05Three more consonants in one vowel.
40:08So let's go, uh...
40:11P.
40:12D.
40:15M.
40:17O.
40:20Vanna White.
40:21It's going to show you a little bit more.
40:24I think that's it.
40:25Okay.
40:26So again, talk it out.
40:28Try and get there.
40:29Ten seconds to try and solve it.
40:31Good luck.
40:33Educated guess?
40:34That's it.
40:35Oh, my God.
40:36Oh, my God.
40:37You got it, baby.
40:38You got it.
40:39Oh, my God.
