Episode 3.13 - Holdover Episode #1
December 5

An army sergeant who can do 96 pushups is about to face heavy fire from things that she should've known before suiting up. And here to help her... last year's class? It can only be what we call in the business... a holdover episode from season 2.

First up tonight is a 24-year-old Army sergeant from Meadow Lake Elementary in New Hope, MN... ROSE MATTIE. She just came back from Iraq. She's also on the Arizona National Guard biathlon team, is a mechanic, and her nickname is "Ranger Barbie".

Taking on the board first is Cody.

If Cody's baby sister is 8 pounds, how many ounces does she weigh?

Eight pounds... 16 ounces a pound... 16 times 8... is 128. Rose thinks about 108, but uses a PEEK just to make sure. Sierra said... 128. She goes with her own answer hoping that the save will kick in...

It does. SAVED!

This is for safe money. Helping her to that is Nay-Rod...
