The last gas of the Million Dollar
Mission is ignited as a couple from California goes for a 50/50 shot at
a million.
That couple, NATE & SARAH HARRISON. Joining them are their supporters,
whom we'll meet later. Nate & Sarah just moved out from Nashville, TN.
They've been married for 2 and a years. Nate was in class when Sarah got
the call. Two and a half hours later, here they are. Supporting them,
their mothers.
Tonight is a Million Dollar Mission game with 13 cases. Is one of them
case #5?
Starting with six. Nate will pick this
round.
6 - $10
13 - $400
16 - $300
25 - $1,000,000... 12 left.
26 - $25
1 - $1,000,000... 11 left.
Two of the big cases are gone, but now we have a better than 50/50 shot
at a million. Banker is living the disaster. The first offer, with a
heavy heart of humility... yeah right...

Remember, it was the banker's decision to
go one more round with the millions. It's Nate's round. It's Nate's
decision. He says... NO DEAL.
Five cases. Sarah's round.
2 - "Is this low enough?" $50
7 - $1,000,000
23 - $1,000,000... nine left
8 - "I think you'll be happy." $1
4 - "Good thing you have a lot of 'em." $1,000,000
Eight of the 15 remaining still have a million. Little better than even
odds. The banker is not impressed.

she didn't have her mother with her telling her to be brave. NO DEAL.
This is Sarah's case.

Nate says that some might be better than
none. There is still a chance that they're holding onto the final MDC...
But is it a chance that they're willing to take? It's Sarah's decision.
Her decision... is one that Nate makes with her. After the moms tell
them to be crazy... DEAL for $209,000.
But was it the right choice? Brooke had the final case.
In their case...

Nate & Sarah's
Deal
$209,000 |
And that'll do it for the Million Dollar Mission. Come back for the
continuation of the LAST game next time.
