Episode 105/106
December 23

This is the fourth and final night of a four-night event of The Million Dollar Money Drop. So far two couples have managed to prevent a total of $320,000 from being dropped.

The next couple ready to face the money drop are a newlywed couple of Tyler and Roshelle Baier. They now have $1,000,000 in hand, but their game has seven questions that want to drain them financially.

QUESTION 1 CATEGORIES: ROCK OF AGES/CORPORATE MASCOTS

They start with Corporate Mascots.

Q1: In TV ads, which of these mascots does not talk?
A: Geico Gecko
B: Energizer Bunny
C: Budweiser Frogs
D: Taco Bell Chihuahua

They put all of the money on B...which is correct.

QUESTION 2 CATEGORIES: ACADEMY AWARDS/U.S. STATES

Tyler and ... go with U.S. States.

Q2: On U.S. Mail, what is the postal abbreviation for the state of Maine?
A: MA
B: MN
C: MI
D: ME

They lose out on 80K with A, but they do keep $920,000 with the correct answer, D.

QUESTION 3 CATEGORIES: BODY PARTS/NASCAR

Up next for them, Body Parts.

Q3: In an average healthy adult, which of these human organs weighs the most?
A: Heart
B: Brain
C: Kidney
D: Lungs

Tyler and ... are still holding on to the Quick Change.

D is not correct, and that costs them 260K, but they move along with $660,000 left over.

QUESTION 4 CATEGORIES: THE INTERNET/DEADLY ANIMALS

Tyler and ... go with The Internet.

Q4: In the corporate logo for Google, what color has the capital G been since 1998?
A: Red
B: Yellow
C: Blue

A is wrong, taking a 460K cut while C keeps $200,000 in play.

QUESTION 5 CATEGORIES: JOBS/COSTCO

Tyler and ... choose Jobs.

Q5: According to the U.S. Census Bureau, which job is held by more Americans?
A: Teacher
B: Chef
C: Janitor

A $60,000 insurance policy was taken on C and that leaves them with $140,000 on the correct answer, A.

QUESTION 6 CATEGORIES: MAGAZINES/CLASSIC SITCOMS

Travis and ... want a query about Magazines.

Q6: In 1999, who was named Time Magazine's Person of the Century?
A: Albert Einstein
B: Elvis Presley
C: Bill Gates

Tyler and ... have had five opportunities to use the Quick Change, and they're doing that now.

C is wrong, but A is correct taking away 60K, but that leaves them with $80,000 for the final question.

QUESTION 7 CATEGORIES: PETS/SPORTS

Tyler and ... end their game with a question on Sports.

Q7: According to Forbes, which of these North American sports teams was the most valuable in 2010?
A: New York Yankees
B: Dallas Cowboys

They place the 80K on A and want a fact about the Yankees. Kevin tells them that the franchise is valued at $1.6 billion and they refuse the extra minute of thinking time.

The correct answer to their final question is...B. Tyler and ... leave the platform with nada. But the moment of heartbreak has to end...and it ends right now as one more couple takes on the heartbreaking, big money challenge.

Jaime and Chris Senesac have been married for 11 years and want to go on a tour of all the RV parks in America if they win enough money. And speaking of which, like the previous couples that went before them, they begin with $20,000 stacks that amount to a total of $1,000,000.

QUESTION 1 CATEGORIES: TIME ZONES/SEASONS

Jaime and Chris start their game off with Seasons.

Q1: Which event occurs closest to "Tax Day" in the United States?
A: First Day of Summer
B: First Day of Spring
C: First Day of Fall
D: First Day of Winter

All of their money is placed on B which is correct and they're off to a perfect start.

QUESTION 2 CATEGORIES: PRESIDENTS/ACCIDENTS

Jaime and Chris choose Presidents for their next question.

Q2: Who was President the day Justin Bieber was born?
A: Jenna's Dad
B: Malia's Dad
C: Chelsea's Dad
D: George W.'s Dad

They decide to use the Quick Change this early in their game. D is not correct, causing them to lose 660K. C is the correct answer and they take $340,000 to the next question.

QUESTION 3 CATEGORIES: SEXY SENIORS/DINER FOOD

They want some diner food, but rather a question about Diner Food.

Q3: What is Denny's #1 most-ordered menu item?
A: Country Fried Steak and Eggs
B: Grand Slam Breakfast
C: Heartland Scramble
D: Western Omelette

Jaime and Chris put all of the remaining stacks on B. Are they correct? YES!

QUESTION 4 CATEGORIES: CELEBRITIES/AREA CODES

Their next category...Celebrities.

Q4: Which of these body parts does not have an insurance policy taken out on them with Lloyd's of London?
A: Dolly Parton's Breasts
B: David Beckham's Legs
C: Kim Kardashian's Butt

A proved costly for Jaime and Chris as they lose 200K, but C saves them $140,000.

QUESTION 5 CATEGORIES: ONLINE SHOPPING/MARRIAGE

They go with Marriage

Q5: According to a poll by iVillage, what do most married women say they'd rather do than have sex with their husbands?
A: Go shopping
B: Sleep
C: Go to a spa

Jaime and Chris put all of the 140K on B, and they're correct!

QUESTION 6 CATEGORIES: TOYS/INTERNET

They choose Toys.

Q6: Which of these is not an actual Barbie doll ever produced by Mattel?
A: French Maid Barbie
B: Lingerie Barbie
C: Sunday School Barbie

B was not correct and $100,000 is now gone forever. However, C is correct and Jaime and Chris take $40,000 with them to the final question.

QUESTION 7 CATEGORIES: BIG APPLE/CONDIMENTS

The end their game by getting a question about the Big Apple.

Q7: In which hand does the Statue of Liberty hold her torch?
A: Left hand
B: Right hand

Jaime and Chris place the remaining cash on B. One final fact regarding this query is that the Statue of Liberty is holding a book on her other hand. They second-guess themselves and use the next 60 seconds to change their answer from B to A. Sometimes change is good, but in this case it has left Jaime and Chris flat broke.

And that's it for this four-night event of The Million Dollar Money Drop. The show will return in January with more couples taking their places on the platform for high rises and fast falls. Happy Holidays, Everyone!
