Bianca's Good Turn | Cyberchase
In this Cyberchase video clip, Bianca goes to an arcade in Times Square and tries her hand at Mr. Sleaze's wheel of fortune. She keeps losing the game, but notices that a boy next to her who seems to know Mr. Sleaze keeps winning by betting on black, yellow and blue. Bianca uses her knowledge of geometry and circles and points out that the game is rigged, because the pegs are all placed at different distances from the center. She removes the pegs and builds her own fair version of the game.
