Gameplay

• Howie Mandel began the episode by stating that the DoND crew would travel to a lucky contestant's home to begin the first game — right in that contestant's front yard. The lucky contestant was Mary Marolla, a stay-at-home mother whose son is a fan of The Wiggles. The banker's first offer was appropriate: Three of The Wiggles' band members appeared to help pitch the first offer: a tour of Australia and an opportunity to star in The Wiggles' upcoming DVD (total value: $17,174). Marolla rejected the offer, after which the game moved to the studios.

Marolla's luck peaked in the second round, when she received a $51,000 offer. Thereafter, her luck began to wane, then it plummeted when she wiped out her last mega-amount — $500,000 — with six cases to go. With 1 cent among four amounts of $50 or less still in play, she lost the last desirable amounts ($5,000 and $25,000) in short order to see her luck continue to decline. Finally, she was left with 1 cent and $10. After deciding not to switch cases, she did not win the penny as she hoped to (in order to set a record that will not be broken unless Double or Nothing is returned to the show); her case held $10.

• Arthur Joseph's game ended in round 3, with him rejecting a $44,000 offer. Five of the seven top amounts were eliminated in those early rounds, although $100,000 and $1 million remained on the table.
