the first guy, I can understand (not much of a safety net)...but the second guy went out WAY too early.

I am trying to figure out how taping works. After the show tonite, Howie said how it was a really special episode with 2 milion dollar cases etc, but how does he know that 3 people will be a 2 hour special?? I am thinking that maybe they tape 5 or 6 shows a day, and when they got the second guy, they decided to put together a 2 hour special and had Howie say that at the end.. Does anyone think that they just decided beforehand that those 3 people would make up a two hour show? that makes no sense, so they must just mix up contestants to make episodes.. I wouldnt be surprised if the 2 million dollar cases werent even taped on the same day but put together as an episode. I also think it seemed clear that Howie knew that the million was in those cases.. Hubby even thinks its very scripted, like they coached the wife to get him to quit. Wilson, I can kindof guess why he did it. It doesnt happen often that you get a big offer with a lot of cases left to open.. usually its just one by that point so I think he thought 3 was pretty risky. plus wife pushed him.. The first guy only had to open one, so i think he shouldve gone again..

When the second guy's case was opened I laughed and said make sure to kill your wife when you get her home. LOL

Donut, I was wondering the same thing myself. I'd be willing to bet shows taped at different times are cut and spliced together -- especially for a two-hour airing. I doubt they would actually coach a player and family and friends what to say / how to play.

They need animated contestants, but this guy is embarrassing. I feel sorry for the Ladies. Or is it me?

I had to change the station for the second hour so I could watch 24. How did the girl do that Howie picked up at the mall?

She ended up with $62,000 dollars. It was down to the 50,000 and the 75,000 case. She took the deal. Her case had $75,000.

It was very entertaining and she was very sweet. BUT it just rubbed me the wrong way when she and her family were so bummed by the fact that there was more money in her case. They all loooked like she'd lost and done badly, and were trying to put on a good face. But, HELLO, one hour before she'd been selling hotdogs at a daily rate of 35 bucks. At 62,000, she was ultimately only a few grand short of the 75 grand in her briefcase, (big bleeding deal) AND that's more money than she had EVER seen in 9 years of working at the hotdog stand. If it was me, I'd have been jumping for joy, or fainting from shock at such a wonderful win. ANd let's not forget that no one in her family, including her, was familiar with the show. LOL. Found money. And they were pouting. Geez!

This is the first repeat that I can remember. The woman is an embarrassment. I would have watched a repeat -- but I turned HER off.

Sorry, Naja. I was *oh so close* to trying out for DOND Canada, but there was no way of getting the time off for the audition. :-( And I can't apply for any of my favourite reality shows.

But I join the petition to have someone try out! Please? Anyone!?

Contestant's mom tonight: Offer is $170,0000. $2M could give you so much freedom, etc., etc. (In other words, DON'T take the deal.) Contestant didn't. Next case she opened was the $2M. Eventually she's down to $15,000 offer for possibility of $50,000 case. Mom: $15,000 can give you so much freedom.

Mom wasn't much help tonight.

A lot of the time, the family and friends are more of a hindrance than a help.
