Million Dollar Twins
August 18
Last time, Scott & Emily
Barzee turned office products into $125,000. Will someone follow suit
now that the Million Dollar Mission is a Million Dollar Memory?
Tonight's players are
another set of twins, SHAWN & DAN NIER of Rochester, NY. Dan is a PE
teacher.
LEVEL 1 - $1000: DROP ZONE.
The contestant must guide a whiffleball on two ropes downwards from a
table to a basket 10 feet away.
And as always, "Failure to
complete this task in 60 seconds may result in elimination."
First up, Dan with the
ropes.
First attempt... FAIL (TIME
OUT, TWO LIVES remaining).
Switchout!
Second attempt... COMPLETE!
(:21, $1000)
LEVEL 2 - $2500: EGG DANCE.
The contestant must carry two eggs on inverted plates across the stage
from one set of platforms to the other. The contestant fails the
challenge if either egg drops.
Shawn tries not to crack
under the pressure...
First attempt... COMPLETE!
(:02, $2500)
LEVEL 3 - $5000: BLOW BALL.
On a pizza platter are 76 balls, three yellow, the rest red. The
contestant must blow the red ping-pong balls off of a large pizza
platter without knocking off the yellow ping-pong balls scattered in the
mess of red ping-pong balls.
Dan tries not to blow it.
First attempt... COMPLETE!
(:16, $5000)
LEVEL 4 - $10,000: SHARP
SHOOTER. Using rubber bands as projectiles, the contestant must knock
THREE clothespins with playing cards on them.
Shawn gives it a shot.
First attempt... COMPLETE!
(:05, $10,000)
LEVEL 5 - $50,000: SPEED
ERASER. Player must bounce pencils off their eraser into glasses. This
must be repeated SEVEN times
Playing this Minute to Win
It classic... Dan.
First attempt... COMPLETE!
(:03, $50,000)
LEVEL 6 - $75,000: DROP
BALL. The contestant must remove a water bottle, which is on top of a
five gallon water jug, so that a golf ball drops into the jug. This must
be done FOUR times out of seven.
First attempt... with
Dan.... FAIL (ONE LIFE remaining).
Final attempt... with
Shawn... COMPLETE! (:11, $75,000).
Watching as the twins climb
the Minute to Win It Ladder is Dan's girlfriend Kristi.... to whom Dan
proposes in the 60 Second Circle! DEAL! Wait, wrong show. Anyway,
congrats to them both.
LEVEL 7 - $125,000: BROOM
SKEEBALL. The player must roll a tennis ball over a broom handle and
into three baskets.
Shawn thinks he has it in
the basket.
Only attempt... COMPLETE!
(:33, $125,000). Now the question... do the twins want to risk $75,000
on a chance at another $125,000? Nope. They're going home.
You're going to want to tune
in all next week, as Minute to Win It presents... for the first time...
WOMEN... as you've never seen them before.
