January 16
Tonight is a special night in the Vault
as twenty-five models (and one model wannabe) continue the Million
Dollar Mission. Carrying case #4 tonight... Ellen DeGeneres. We join her
as she is learning how to open the case...
... She'll get it in time for the show. We hope.
First up, SHEQUILA FARRELLY. Shequila's originally from Lower Alabama.
She's married to an Army man. She's a TV junkie, especially talk
shows... especially Ellen. She's here tonight. She wants to save some
money up for her education.
Okay, tonight's game is played with seven million dollar cases. Is one
of them in case #10?
Starting with six...
2 - "Not a good start." $1,000,000. Six more.
16 - $50,000
22 - $75
6 - $1,000,000... Five more.
5 - $10,000
18 - $100
Two MDCs in one round... Not a good way to start the game. But let's see
what the banker has to say...

A record first offer on a draw board.
Shequila sees this as life changing money, especially when you consider
that she's a military wife who is very active in her community.
Not enough, though. NO DEAL.
8 - $1
23 - $400
1 - $5000
15 - $1,000,000... Four more.
17 - $1000
Four MDCs left. Still a draw board. Banker offers...

Almost a one-in-three chance at Sara
(friend), Kia (friend), and Patrick (husband) helping a millionaire.
Patrick's leaving next month, so he's glad to be here. He says no. So
says Shequila. Four more cases...
9 - $10
24 - ... Ellen has to take a sit-down... next to the family.
Meanwhile... $1,000,000
11 - ... oh, the regular kid's back at #4. $200 at #11, though.
4 - ... and she's leaving again. Ellen rushes back to open up... $300!
Three MDCs left. Going to the banker as Ellen, per the rules of DOND,
left as her case was chosen...

The offers will start to go down if she
picks off another MDC, so what does Shequila want to do? The wives in
the audience say NO DEAL. So says Shequila.
20 - $1,000,000... Two more.
13 - $50
21 - $25
Two big cases left. Howie says that the offers should start to go
down... Didn't happen, though.

There's a one-in-four chance that
Shequila is sitting on a million. Is that chance worth $197,000? Nope.

Army. Congrats!
Now back to the game. Two cases.
12 - $1,000,000... One more.
19 - Boom. $1,000,000.

The friends say to slap the button and
roll out. Book says to do it as well. She does. DEAL for $36,000.
Was it a good deal? Lisa had $75,000. That's a yes. In Shequila's
case...
The Million Dollar Mission continues with
eight next time. |
