We're back with returning champions the McNulty family have a chance to win a new car, but they have to focus on a win first, as they're playing against the Adams family.

SINGLE: when a husband accompanies his wife shopping, his job is to what?
1. Carry/Load bags 28    5. Sit/Stay/Be quiet 11
2. Pay 19                6. Help her choose 9
3. Push the cart 13      7. Complain 2
4. Hold her purse 12

2. No TV 23              6. Sit until all eaten 2
3. Can't play/Outside 8
4. Go to room/bed 7


DOUBLE: an American city where they know how to party.

With a car on the line, the McNaltys had to get #2 on the last survey to send the game to sudden death. They thought people fall from a roof, and their chance for a new car went dead, giving up their title to the Adams family.

Jeremy & Tony will attempt to play Fast Money. Jeremy had some answers that were good, but some where light, but got 68. Tony's answers were more on the weaker side, and couldn't make the rally. They end up with a total of $585.

Fast Money #1 answers
- Something a bartender might stick in a cocktail: Olive (Jeremy)
- What are you usually doing at 8 o'clock in the morning?: Sleeping
- The least popular month for marriages: January (Jeremy)
- 1-10, rate your psychic abilities: 1 (we're not good at predicting things)

David Baron, Cheryl Jefferson, Kevin Dornbush, and Yescenia de la Cruz-Herschauer get it going on a Thursday with a speaker box, an alarm clock, headphones, and something can be plugged into all three: an iPod. The $779 package goes to Yescenia, who gets to wake up in time to see a trip to Italy with a set of luggage in Safecrackers. The dials for the luggage: 0, 6, 8. She ties 8-6-0... stays locked. It was $680.

David wins a $700 pair of digital cameras. Now picture yourself behind the wheel of a Hyundai Accent in Hi-Lo. The lowest in the Hi-Row: a $5.99 pack of Icy Hot pain patches. Grapefruit Fanta... $4.99. Selsun Blue shampoo... $7.99.

Katrina Brox gets a $799 bike and a shot at a hot box - a grill, plus an iMac, designer accessories, and a pool table in Race Game... she wins none of those things. The prices: $1042, $2129, $651, and $3595. She gets another shot at it in the Showcase.

And we get another shot at a win with Sandra Yaghoubian and her new $555 small appliance set. Next for her, a $2695 home gym and a $2799 3DTV in Bargain Game. She thinks the home gym is the bigger bargain. The TV: $3799. The home gym: $5195; and $2500 beats $1000!

Heather Puckett goes down and up thanks to a $1714 chair & ottoman with tablet PC. Just don't use either if you're driving a Dodge Journey! Spend Gas Money instead. The prices:

$22,770
$20,585
$24,813
$23,661
$21,661

She picks $20,585.... and under old rules, she would've won.

Last chance junction with Kevin and Cheryl. The prize of great importance: jewelry. The price: $670. Winner... Kevin! He'll try to sail off in a new catamaran or perhaps speed off in a new scooter if he wins Cliffhangers. First, a pigs-in-a-blanket maker. $20? No, $25 for five. Water filter pitcher for $35? No, it's $32 for three more, leaving $17 worth of play on a foosball. Is it $45? No... it's $49!

Sandra takes on Katrina in the Showcase. First up, let's eat in a new kitchen... or perhaps you want to eat out with a Mazda 2 Sport! Top winner Sandra passes (why?), and Katrina bids $32,000. Sandra gets an island jump to St. Maarten, Turks & Caicos, and the Maldives. She bids $22,000. Actual price: $24,255, a difference of $2255. Actual price of Katrina's Showcase... $21,522. And that gives the day and $33,084 to Sandra!

Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?

  Nadine Lubka (New York, NY) starts today's show with $22,000 through 3 questions, and with ATA and a Jump available.

[Q4 - TV Tie-Ins]
Along with weapons like shotguns and crossbows, what TV show's board game features "destinations" like the CDC and the police station?
A: Breaking Bad
B: Game of Thrones
C: The Walking Dead
D: True Blood

Nadine says she doesn't watch too much TV, so she asks the audience. 50% say C. She trusts them, and they're right, adding to her bank... $5,000! Her total now is $27,000!

She then goes on and jumps the 7th question, which had $1,000. She has a total of $40,500 going into this...

[Q9 - Campaign Trail]
A slogan any political advisor would nix today, "Defender of Beauty and Booty" was on campaign posters for what U.S. president?
A: George Washington
B: Andrew Jackson
C: Ulysses S. Grant
D: Theodore Roosevelt

Nadine can't see A using such a slogan, and if she had to guess, she'd guess D. But she instead decides to walk with $20,250! Good thing she did; it's B!

Jaime Sandoz (Flushing, NY) - Police sergeant
He has been an officer for 12 years.

Along the way, he jumps the 4th and 5th questions, which had $10,000 and $25,000. He sees this with $23,100...

[Q7 - Man of the Cloth]
At the urging of his grandfather, which Supreme Court justice attended seminary schools in Missouri and Georgia in his initial plan to become a priest?
A: Clarence Thomas
B: Anthony Kennedy
C: Antonin Scalia
D: John Roberts

Though one of those jumps out at him, and that he thinks this person is very conservative, Jaime isn't confident enough about it, so he asks the audience. 35% say C, with 30% saying A and 27% saying D. He was thinking C. After some thought, though, he chooses to walk with $11,550! A good move in the end, because the answer is A!
