Solving the Wheel of Fortune puzzle before the game’s contestants is one of the most satisfying parts of watching the show; it gives you a feeling of validation, like you’re the one who should be on TV, earning that prize money. But for the TikTok user PMT and her mother, it means so much more.

Thanks to her brother, who lives in a state with an earlier time zone, PMT has access to all of the show’s answers before the show even airs. Using them to hilariously prank her mother by solving the puzzle ridiculously early, she has earned herself plenty of her mother’s iconic death stares, and millions of viral views at the same time.



PMT’s mother has Alzheimer's and enjoys watching her game shows and living a “Grandpa Joe” lifestyle, as PMT puts it. Watching Wheel of Fortune gives the pair a chance to bond. 




“We spend a lot of time together where my mom doesn’t have much to say,” she said. “This is giving us more to talk about.” But while mom’s millions of fans love her, she couldn’t care less. When asked if she wanted to wave hi to her fans, Mom just shook her head. “No.”


And if you're thinking about pranking your mom, if you aren't doing it like this, don't bother trying.
