Free Spirit
PRIZED POSSESSION

Ophelia Hoeing considered herself a free spirit, and her independence was her most valued possession. That and the his-and-hers Jaguars she was going to win on "Bet You Can't Do It," the world's craziest game show. In fact, those cars were going to be her ticket to lifelong freedom.
