Gameplay
- Carmen Gant, a casual photographer looking to pay off divorce-lawyer fees from her divorce and send the kids to college, came to DonD and found out she was in the sixth stage of the MDM: seven $1M cases! Two of them fell out in the first round. The second round began with the $1 and the penny, which Carmen both captured on film, but the round ended with two more big millions. With eight cases remaining, only one million was in play, and the banker was able to offer on the cheap: $42,000. Three more rounds were all small, however the bank continued to bait Carmen with offers of $73,000, $93,000, and $133,000. This plan, however heartless, worked: The 25% bomb exploded on the next case. $50, $100, and $25,000 were left. The offer of $6,000 was rejected and the $25,000 followed. Carmen, surprisingly, dealt for $100. Her case could have been double or half; her case had the $200.
Notes
Trivia
The Show
- This is probably the worst known example of baiting a contestant with low offers in DonD history. As the Million Dollar Mission progressed, they got worse.
- This episode, in particular, highlighted the glaring problem of being able to predict the result of the game with very little time left. In the past, episodes would be carried over at suspenseful points, and sometimes even just before a case was opened. Carryovers rarely happen nowadays, and never this late in the game, such that with only 3 minutes left in the show, there would be no possible way that anything other than landmining could happen within the time limit. This problem is only accentuated by special reunions, inopportune commercials, and above all, Howie's talk before a case late in the game is opened, which can drag on for several minutes.
