The champion was shown five scrambled words, each a different length from five to nine letters, on a screen placed in front of the slot machine. He/she had 30 seconds to solve the words, starting with the shortest and working upward by length. The current word was slowly unscrambled, one letter at a time, until the champion solved it. No passing was allowed; the champion had to solve each word before moving to the next. He/she won the car for unscrambling all five words.
