Michelle & Stacey
November 21

This is Stacey Finnerty, a high-school teacher who has agreed to compete on a game show for hundreds of thousands of dollars in cash.

... but strangely enough, this show isn't all about her. Because tonight, she's competing for her best friend Michelle, who, at this moment, is taking in a movie that's surrounded by hidden cameras. She has no idea that Stacey's doing this, and more importantly, she has no idea that Stacey's doing this for her.

So why all the hubbub, all the attention, and all the cash money on the table to be won? Simply put... Michelle.... YOU DESERVE IT!

Michelle Brislen is a mother of two girls who could use a little help. Her husband Drew died in a diving accident, leaving behind his family to grieve. His passing created financial issues, including lack of health insurance. She was worried that she would not be taken care of, however she remained putting others over herself. And that is why Stacey is here today.

Here's how it works. There are five who/what/where puzzles, worth, in order, $10,000, $25,000, $50,000, $100,000, and $250,000. In total, there is $435,000 to be won, and every penny of whatever she wins goes directly to Michelle. Each puzzle has 10 clues. The first one is free, but the others will have to be bought with a portion of the total puzzle's value. You will have one - and ONLY one - guess at the puzzle. If you are correct, whatever money is left is yours to give no matter what. If you are wrong, you forfeit the rest of the cash.

The clues to be bought will be assigned to a random dollar value. She will have to pick a clue and give back the corresponding dollar amount in order to see it.

$10,000 ROUND: WHO (person or persons, real or fictional)

FREE CLUE: Made Up

Nothing coming to mind, so the rest of the cash is split thusly...
