As they advanced to the third round, $20,000 was added to the prize. Randall got bad luck because he hit the bankrupt button, allowing Sam to solve the puzzle. After solving the puzzle, Sam's total became $47,450, after the additional $20,000 went into his account.

More on Celebrity Wheel of Fortune guest star Sam Richardson's latest venture
As per the reports at Hollywood Reporter, published in December 2024, Sam Richardson is working on another Apple original project, after coming to be known for his role in Ted Lasso, an Apple TV initiative.
The feature is called Matchbox and is set to be directed by the maker of Extraction action films. In the coveted project, the Emmy-winning comedian, Sam, is said to pair up with John Cena. Talks of Jessica Biel being on the cast have also come out, per the same report.
The movie will focus on an existing toy brand named Matchbox, which was acquired by Mattel in 1997. The company is known for producing car toys and for introducing the Hot Wheels line. Notably, a car enthusiast, Jack Odell, designed the first car toy for his daughter to take to school because she could bring a toy to school only if it was small enough to fit inside a matchbox.
The brand was born when Jack's daughter's friends demanded these matchbox-sized cars. The movie Matchbox is entirely based on the story of the brand. While the plot details are still unknown, the screenplay is being worked on by David Coggeshall, who also wrote The Family Plan for Apple and wrote Ryan Reynolds' action movie, The Adam Project.
