In a new video uploaded via the show’s official handle, Sajak and co-host Vanna White could be seen making an entrance onto the stage when the 78-year-old expressed his enthusiasm at being back on the show. With a playful tone, he thanked current host for giving him the opportunity to step back into his former role, while joking about his whereabouts only for the camera to pan on Seacrest, who appeared to be trapped in a backstage dressing room, struggling to turn the doorknob in an attempt to free himself while calling out to Sajak.
Seeing the situation, White appeared quite shocked, but the former host quickly reassured her, downplaying the situation, stating that Seacrest had adequate ventilation and would be perfectly fine.
