Today’s Recap – Friday, 24 October 2025
The October 24, 2025, episode of Wheel of Fortune brought an exciting showdown between Megan Zandrowicz from Palmetto, Florida, Mike Lipka of Valencia, and Dominique Reed Sumpter from Chicago. Megan, a proud Bills fan and Swiftie, wasted no time getting ahead by solving the $1,000 Toss-Up: GETTING AN EARLY START, while Mike followed with $2,000 Toss-Up: THE AUSTRALIAN OUTBACK. The night’s featured prize was a stay at the Wolf Cove Inn in Maine, setting the tone for a competitive and energetic game.
In the first round, with the category Pet Peeve, Mike kept his momentum rolling by solving A BROKEN WHEEL ON MY SHOPPING CART, adding $2,400 to his total despite a few Bankrupts earlier in the round. The energy remained high in the next puzzle, the Eggland’s Best Mystery Round with the crossword clue LOL, where Mike once again took the lead with a clever solve combining LAUGH, HILARIOUS, HAHA, and HOOT for $6,650. His performance placed him solidly ahead going into the later rounds.
The Prize Puzzle Round brought the spotlight back to Megan, who pieced together A DAY OF SUNBATHING, earning $850 and a tropical trip to Costa Rica’s Ylang-Ylang Beach Resort. The Triple Toss-Ups featured a fun Wordplay theme, where Dominique correctly answered POWER STEERING, Megan followed with STEER CLEAR, and Dominique returned to take PRIZE-WINNING STEER. The close exchanges showed all three contestants at their best.
In the Final Spin with the Food Fusion category, Megan secured her lead by solving SUSHI BURRITO for $3,400, bringing her total to $14,999 in cash and prizes before the bonus round. She entered the final challenge calm and focused under the category What Are You Doing? With sharp intuition, she delivered the correct answer — BROWSING THROUGH PICS — to win the $50,000 bonus round prize.
By the end of the night, Megan Zandrowicz emerged as the champion with an impressive $64,999 in total winnings, including her Costa Rican getaway. Mike Lipka wrapped up with $11,050, and Dominique Reed Sumpter earned $4,000. It was a competitive and entertaining episode that showcased quick thinking, humor, and an exciting finish worthy of the Wheel of Fortune stage.
