[dramatic music]

- Previously on "Deal or No Deal Island"...

- Number one and two.

- I'd be down.

You could get backstabbed by Boston Rob

or you backstab Boston Rob.

- You guys wanna bring her in?

- Bring me in to what?

- We've had this alliance. It's called the Night Owls.

[all hooting]

- What do you think their alliance name is?

- Dumb and Dumber. - [laughs]

- The Night Owls are catty.

Nothing is more upsetting than that.

- I was told that everybody was on board.

- The plan is what?

- Stephanie was there for the plan.

I wonder if she gets tired

putting makeup on her two faces.

- I trust Nick up to a point.

Rob did not hesitate this morning.

- Tell me exactly what he said.

- I should be worried

if you continue in the game.

Did I lie to Nick?

For sure.

- That is the biggest offer

in "Deal or No Deal" history, $4,417,000.

- [exhales] - Wow.

You made a bad deal.

- Rob, have you ever said Nick is your target?

- Never. I always thought I was the target.

Who did it come from? Her?

- You are the master manipulator.

- It's you.

Do you notice it always surrounds you?

- Yeah, everyone's after Rob.

- Are you even on this planet? - Protect Rob.

* *

This is war.

[tense music]

* *

- Amy, I just want you to know that I've never once

in this game ever tried to vote out Nick...

- Well, I think Nick believes you because--

- Or you.

If you're gonna call me on a lie, call me on a lie.

But don't call me on something that's not true.

I was never ever trying to vote him out.

And I told him that before he left.

And I told her that to her face.

- But here we are.

I'm really losing faith in Steph

because Nick's game was on the line.

That's family.

I feel like lines in the sand

essentially will be drawn to see who's really--

who's really riding with who.

Was that Rob's plan?

- Yeah.

I am absolutely lying.

I have been in defensive mode from Rob from the start.

And now the gloves are off.

There's five people left.

The only way they'll continue to move ahead

is destroying the Rob-Aron alliance.

Rob came to me telling me I should eliminate you,

and I said eliminate, um, Nick.

And he laid out all of the reasons

why you were not a good choice.

- Not a good choice to win or not--

- Not a good choice if you were to continue on,

that I would be a replacement for you,

that he would then have my back...

to discard you.

[tense music]

- I zhuzhed up the fact that Rob said if I got rid of Aron

that I would be able to move forward with him.

So if I made it up to this point being able to deceive,

pats on the back to me.

- If you were sitting beside Rob in the final two,

do you think you have a shot at winning?

And if that's what you want to do, do it.

- No. - I'm just saying,

is that really what you want to do?

- No.

All I see is a good person who's been so nice to me.

No--how I can see that it's not.

- Why you didn't want him probably to get this far.

- I truly feel bad for Aron.

Aron is visibly upset.

I think Stephanie and Amy are absolutely

being a little bit unnecessary and hostile and aggressive.

- At the end of the day, one person wins this game.

- And you deserve it just as much on your own volition,

which you're totally capable of.

* *

- The idea of Rob throwing my name out seems crazy

because, personally, we're, like, thick as thieves.

But doesn't mean he can't also...

backstab me in the realm of the game.

* *

We have to think about it.

[animals chittering, warbling]

* *

- Dang. Sucker was fast.

- Did you wanna chat?

- Yeah.

Wanna go over here? - Sure.

- You want to sit at the bench?

- I was with the Night Owls.

But I truly think Stephanie is lying at every turn.

And Stephanie has built a relationship with Amy.

I just cannot trust the two of them.

I know now that I am the third Night Owl.

I'm the first to go.

I think I've, like, gone back and forth.

But I think I'm pretty set in my opinions about her.

- She is rotten.

When you look in the mirror,

you have to be able to tell yourself

the truth about what happened.

And I don't think she does. - She'll never do that.

No. - I think she's a sociopath.

- She's caught up in her own lies, though.

- Yeah, she is.

I'm gonna break it down for you.

These are the odds of the people

that I trust from most to least.

New on the leaderboard is Jordan, from 0 to 1.5%.

I have no intention of wanting to see you go anywhere.

- Yeah.

- Amy, still at 0.

And Stephanie has dropped to negative infinity.

Let's sit over here.

Coming in at the top spot, we got Aron.

I think Aron's gonna roll with me to the end.

There's still a lot of work.

We've gotta keep our head in the game.

- Yeah, one day at a time. - Okay?

But he has to stay focused.

I can't keep reeling him in.

No map screwups this time, no misjudging.

You know, we have to figure it out.

- Yeah.

- Don't get any crazy ideas. - No.

- Like you're gonna do anything silly.

- Apparently, Rob threw my name out there

as a possible target instead of himself.

I would never have thrown Rob's name under the bus.

- A lot riding on this.

- That's been a really tough thing for me to learn.

Maybe he was using me.

He's manipulating me.

- Watch your face with some sunscreen.

- Getting a little red? - A little bit.

- Yeah.

Giving myself space to think,

giving myself space to breathe.

I do think that very soon, if not right now,

you know, I have to go on my own.

I have to do my own path,

making sure I go to the final four,

the final--the final one.

Still trying to figure out the final four.

- I literally want us to win the final two.

- Yeah. I like this. I like--it's like--

- But let me ask you this. So if it came down

to the final three

and you just played and beat the Banker

and it's Rob and I, like, could you vote Rob out?

- Yeah, I'd pick you to stay and Rob to go.

- He's the biggest competitor-- - He's the biggest competitor.

- Like, you could only go so far with somebody,

and then you have to cut ties. - Yeah, you do.

- Because you can't win against them.

- Of course.

For me, if I wanna be the ultimate opponent

for the Banker, you have to hedge your bets.

As much as I don't have really much of a game much with Amy,

me and Amy are very even physically,

and mentally I could probably beat her.

If I'm gonna face against someone,

I want it to be someone that, uh,

I have a better chance of beating than Rob.

- When you voted him out, he would have mad respect.

- He would be like, "That's the best move you ever made."

- Yes, exactly. Like... - Yeah, he would.

- You just waited till the very end to just strike.

[snake hissing]

[dramatic music]

* *

- Follow the path and it will make sense, right?

- And then there were five.

Hello, guests.

I understand that you might be under the impression

that all the Banker cares about is money.

But I'm telling you, you've got it all wrong.

He loves power way more.

- Of course. [laughs]

- The Banker only plays with those who are powerful.

But his most worthy opponents also know

how to wield their power effectively.

In other words, with great power

comes great responsibility.

Where have I heard that before?

- [laughs]

Anyway, today you will be given power,

and the Banker is very curious how each of you will use it.

One by one, you will race this Jet Ski

across the bay to a clearing.

Once you're there, you will be forced

to make a decision that could tear this group apart

or fully cement your alliances.

- Ugh. - All the while,

the counter here will be ticking down.

And it won't just be time ticking away.

It'll be money.

- Oh, my-- - Oh, my God.

- $10 million.

- That's a lot of zeros. - Wow.

- For every minute that passes, money will be lost.

The amount that remains will be a bonus case

on tonight's board.

And one last thing--

so retrieving the highest-value case today

does not guarantee safety.

- [laughs] Oh. - Wow.

- That's right. - Oh.

- Anyone can be eliminated.

- Holy [bleep]. Are you kidding me?

Without immunity, my only move is to secure the bottom two.

Because, of course, if you're in the bottom two,

that's the only way to really control

your own fate in the game.

- Stephanie. - Yes.

- Since you survived the bottom two at the last Temple,

the Banker wants you to pick the order of participation.

- Okay.

This is the golden window of opportunity to get rid of Rob.

If he doesn't have immunity, this is the moment.

- What is your order?

- I would love Robert to go first.

- Uh-huh. - Amy to go second.

- Mm-hmm.

- Aron, me, and I would love Jordan to go last.

- Okay.

- Of course she picked me first,

thinking that it's going to be a disadvantage for me.

Big mistake, Stephanie.

- Rob, are you ready?

- Ready. - Your time begins now.

- Aron. - Hey, got it.

- Go, come on.

- Rob mounts the golden Jet Ski,

and he's off.

- My first inclination was like, speed, start off fast.

- So what do you think this is?

- When I think power, I think of the power to manipulate.

- I'm not worried about what he's gonna do

'cause he's a wild card.

- Rob's gonna Rob. - Yeah.

- He's gonna do his own thing.

- Okay. "Rules. More money equals less power.

"Choose a case and vote for a player to face the Banker.

"You cannot vote for yourself.

Choose wisely."

The highest case is 6 million,

but it comes with the least amount of marbles

to cast my vote.

I just want to make sure I understand it.

- Go, go. - He's taking way too long.

- What's happening?

- Two minutes.

That's $1 million...

- He's taking forever. - Off the board.

- He's not even on his way back yet.

- Maybe he's lost.

- For me, power is facing the Banker.

But I can't vote for myself.

- Oof.

Another 500,000 off the board.

- We have money that we're losing.

- This is just physical evidence

that Rob is out here to win for himself,

and he doesn't care about what you think

about the group effort and the team effort.

Ridiculous.

- I guess I gotta give them to Aron.

I'm gonna take the lowest case value

with the most amount of marbles

and put them into Aron's container,

and I'm hoping that he does the exact same to me.

I never knew that's how you spelled Aron's name.

Learn something new every day.

Aron should take the next lowest case.

I should have six, and he should have seven.

This is working out perfectly.

- Here he is.

- Come on up, Rob. Hang your case.

- Rob comes back with a $3-million case,

which seems low at this stage in the game.

So low-value cases must mean high power.

- Amy, go. - Run, girl. Run. You got this.

- Let's see if Amy knows what she's doing on that thing.

- Go ahead, country girl.

- Oh! [laughs] - Oh, that's all right.

- Okay.

- This country girl know what she doing.

- Amy making pretty good time.

Takes a swan dive right into the drink.

- Go ahead, Oklahoma!

- 6 million, personal offer 75,000.

That's a given.

The $6-million case only had one token to vote.

But underneath was a $75,000 personal offer.

My husband has never owned a brand-new vehicle,

and I want to give him that.

I'm gonna vote for Stephanie to face the Banker.

Steph's playing a little too hard right now,

and I'm losing trust in her.

If Steph left, who cares?

It's not me. [laughs]

- How's that tea?

- Compliments to the Banker.

- He mixed it himself.

- I thought you were his assistant,

so I thought maybe you made it.

- I-I am the games master.

- Ah, okay. - Okay.

I don't mix tea, pal.

- I hear you. - Yeah.

Amy back with the $6-million case.

- Ooh.

- It says something at the bottom of it.

And a personal of $75,000? - [screams]

Whoa.

- Go ahead and lock in your case.

- That's awesome. - Whoa.

- Aron, you're up. - [sighs]

[bleep] me.

- Go ahead, Aron.

- I feel like at this point in the game,

the highest value is not necessarily safest.

So you just never know.

- All right, Aron's in the water.

- [clears throat]

I'm in.

- And I won't come after you.

- I'm in. - Okay.

- Trust me. I do know how to lie.

This challenge determines the final four players

left in this game.

If I have to fake working with Rob

to get the job done, then so be it.

- But don't screw me... - I won't.

- 'Cause then if I play and win, I'm gonna be mad.

- No, I won't. - Okay.

- "More money equals less power."

I didn't go for the 3.5, because I wanna prove

that I'm not being manipulated by Rob.

Two people left.

More money, less power.

I give Rob less votes.

He wanted to face the Banker, to have control of the game,

be able to eliminate who he wanted to eliminate.

I'm not gonna give him the power.

Go time.

It's my game to play.

I need to win.

I have to do what I have to do.

- We are down to 3.5 million.

- Good job, Aron.

- Aron with a $4-million case, the fastest to return so far.

- What? - Good job.

- They're gonna--they--they-- they already--they already--

you already--you--

Bro, you're supposed to take the lowest case.

You know that's the optimal strategy.

And you come back with 4 million instead of 3.5

when it was available?

I can count. - I know.

- You should know that.

[tense music]

* *

This is what I hate,

that I put myself in this position.

Because if Aron's a really good player, he knows to get me out.

- I didn't want them to think I was, like, gonna--

I was not trying to build the pot.

- Please stop.

Don't pull that with me.

- Oh, wow.

- After everything we've been through.

- I'm trying--

- After everything we've been through.

- [sighs]

This game is wild.

- Rotten.

- Apply to be a contestant on "Deal or No Deal Island"

.

- Whoo, Fortune Bay!

Money!

- A little bit fast one you pulled.

- What? - You know what.

We are supposed to stand together.

- I'm--

- Come on, bro.

- I clearly frustrated Rob tremendously.

I felt like I had lost a friend.

But, you know, what's done is done.

I'm in control of my actions,

and I'm making the decision-- right decision

for me and not anyone else.

- We are down to 3 million. - Ugh.

- I haven't seen clock management this bad

since the last Steelers game.

- My gosh.

- But Stephanie has hit the jungle.

- More money, less power.

I need all these votes.

I know Rob took the most.

The board is good. I'ma take this.

I go for the case that has $3.5 million and six tokens.

We need a Night Owl in the bottom.

We're gonna hope that Jordan does the right thing.

She's gonna know I voted for Amy.

One, two.

Knowing that immunity was gone,

my goal is to have one of the members of the Night Owls

play against the Banker.

Hopefully, Jordan has enough time

to think wisely about the alliance!

[hoots]

- Time keeps ticking away.

- Hurry.

- She's back with the 3.5 million.

Okay, Stephanie, come on up and lock in your case.

- Yes, sir. - Lock it in.

- Yes. All right.

- Jordan, go. - Yes.

- Go, Jordan. - Whoo.

That was fun.

- Whoo!

Max speed, baby. Max speed.

- It's down to 1.5 million.

- It's moving quick.

- At this point, let's just grab

the highest one for the team.

It's a huge decision adding my two balls

to somebody who will have power in this game.

- Oof.

- The bonus case is down to $1 million.

- Oh, from ten to one. - Got this.

- Here she comes, Jordan bringing in the last case

right now.

- My life is on the line here.

And it's gonna come down to

if she put her marbles in my container.

- Let's go, Jordan.

- I have no idea what's gonna happen.

- Okay, there we have it.

Jordan has locked in the last case

and secured the $1-million bonus case.

- Yes! - Great job, everyone.

Guests, you have successfully added

a bonus case worth $1 million.

- Nice. - Go team.

- Not bad. - Could have been better.

- Probably could have been a little higher.

- Yep. - [chuckles]

The guest with the most votes

will automatically face the Banker at the Temple.

Let's see how many votes Jordan received.

- Aww.

- Zero.

- We still love you. - [laughs]

- Okay, Stephanie.

Let's see what you got.

One vote.

Okay, Amy.

Six votes.

- Wow, okay.

- Okay, Aron.

Let's see how many votes you've got.

Seven votes.

Aron, at the moment you are facing the Banker tonight.

With one more remaining,

Rob, if you have more than seven votes,

then it'll be you who is facing the Banker tonight.

- Being in the middle, you're just a sitting duck.

So I need to have the most marbles in my box.

- Let's see what you got.

- Okay.

[tense music]

* *

- Seven on the nose.

Well, well, well.

It is a tie between Rob and Aron.

- I put all my marbles into Rob's box

because I know he wants to face the Banker

and have the power.

I knew exactly what I was doing.

- Rob and Aron, you both received

the same amount of votes.

Now the player who retrieved the highest-value case

will pick who faces the Banker tonight.

- Augh.

- Amy, you brought back the $6-million case.

The choice is yours.

Who will face the Banker tonight?

- [sighs] I have no idea.

It's down to Aron and Rob?

- This is a good test to see how truthful Amy is gonna be.

If she puts Aron up, I'll know I can't trust her.

And then she's out.

- A lot at stake here.

- I'm on this spot right now.

Um.

* *

I do have a final two with Aron,

but I've also just made a deal with Rob.

I do feel like this decision could potentially

change the course of the game.

My heart is beating out of my chest.

Okay, I'm gonna-- I'm gonna have, um--

.

- It is a tie between Rob and Aron.

Amy, this is your decision to make

because you brought back the highest-value case today.

Who will face the Banker tonight?

- I can't have, like, all day to think about this?

- I'm just prayin' she picks Aron.

Because with Aron, at least there's

this little glimmer of a hope

that he may turn on his alliance member.

- I'm on the spot right now.

- Talk me through it. What's going on?

- At the end of the day, we've gotta build the pot.

We've gotta make a lot of money.

Rob banked 49,000 when you played.

You banked 600,000 when you played.

I'm gonna have Aron play the Banker tonight.

- Okay.

[tense music]

* *

I think Amy just lies just to lie.

I think it makes her feel like she's a strategic player.

There's literally absolutely nothing.

How stupid do you have to be to pick a fight with me?

- Here's hoping you make a good deal.

Because if not, it's going to be game over.

- I know.

- I did not choose Rob to play Deal or No Deal

because if Aron plays and wins,

and if he's as smart as he says he is,

he will get Rob out. He's got to.

I don't know. It's gonna be a very interesting Temple.

- Are you happy with Amy's decision?

- I burned a bridge today with Rob.

So I think that if Rob had gone up,

he might have gotten me anyways.

- What do you mean, "gotten you"?

- What do you mean? I thought you were gonna get--

I thought you would have-- I thought because I freaked

and should have gotten that case, but I got this case.

'Cause I felt a little afraid of the power, so, uh--

- What's wrong with choosing the 4 million?

- Less power.

- He's scared that he made a bad decision for Rob.

Because people make him feel like

he doesn't play his own game.

- It's a little ironic because the entire agenda

is Stephanie telling Aron to play your game, play your game.

- Exactly. Exactly. - But what she's actually

doing is she's trying to control his game.

- Wrong.

That's wrong. That's never happened.

- Aron and I have worked together

from the beginning without any issue.

- You think nobody saw the way that you manipulated

and controlled Aron?

- Please stop. Not the nonsense again.

- I won't stop. It's called manipulation.

- I do think that's a wrong theory.

I play my own game, and I play my game well.

Let's be clear. Like, I know what I can do.

If they think I'm the easily manipulated,

weak player, let 'em think that.

I'm gonna win. At the end of the day, I'm gonna win.

- Well, Aron, this is your game to play tonight.

- I'm happy to play.

- Get back to camp and get focused

for your duel against the Banker.

- I'm feeling worried.

I'm feeling uneasy.

I know that I'm the next obvious choice to go home.

I'm just trying to get Aron to get rid of Rob

before Rob gets rid of him.

* *

What do you think, man?

You know why I was upset, right?

- Yeah. both: Yeah.

- And you know that I--

- I know.

But, like, you know I'm smarter than that.

- Yeah. - So don't do that.

You know? Like, we've had... - Yeah, I just wanted to--

- Such a good run up to here, bro.

- I know.

- Aron, he is my teammate, my alliance mate.

So I want him to feel good.

That's it, man. I'm rootin' for you.

I don't want Aron beating the Banker

and then thinking that I'm have it out for him

and he's gonna vote me out.

You know, we're trying to get to the end here.

We just gotta figure out strategically

what's the best way.

- I know. I just--

This game changes on a whim, changes like the tide.

I walked into this game with him.

We said the final two to the end,

and it's very hard for me to ever think

about going against my word.

- I don't wanna sit at the end with Amy

because she plays Candyland and doesn't know anything.

I wanna sit at the end with you.

- Of course.

But as much as Rob is a close friend,

Amy and Stephanie, they're right.

I've been blindly loyal to him, you know?

Sometimes you have to eliminate a friend to win it all.

- I didn't want Rob playing.

Because if Rob plays and wins,

he's taking you out, right-- - Yeah.

- So I was like, "Okay, Aron, you're gonna play."

Aron'll get up there and get nervous.

- I mean, it's still a chance and a gamble.

- But it's still a small chance...

- A sliver of a hope. - That he might take Rob out.

- I swear to goodness, Rob has been a boil on my ass

since I've gotten here. - [laughs]

- Ugh, it's just like this "pestulant"...

- I know. It's--

- Gnarly... - He never goes away.

- Infected wart.

- He never goes away. - [blows raspberry] Ugh.

- Please win tonight and take her out.

- Yes.

- Promise?

- Mm...

maybe.

I'll think about it.

- I'm just, like-- I'm over the agenda.

Like, I'm over it, and it's like

you're my puppet and doing this and doing that.

It's the only card she has to play.

Like, I'm not letting you go.

Like, you know what I mean? - Yeah.

- But please, don't, like, turn it back on me

because she's, like, doing whatever she's doing.

It's nonsense. - I know.

- We're trying to get to the end here.

Don't play games. Just stick to the plan.

- Yeah. No, I know.

If I eliminate Rob, I'm backstabbing him

in the most ultimate way, but it's the nature of the game.

Someone's gotta get eliminated.

And it doesn't feel good. I, uh--

I, uh, feel like a--

I feel like a jerk for saying that.

- She's trying to get to you. - Yeah.

You know, I came into this game knowing I'd be emotional.

I'm not a backstabber or a manipulator in real life.

[sniffles]

I don't feel like it's a representation of me,

but I guess it is.

- I'm dead out here without you.

You know what I mean?

- Yeah.

- If you get overwhelmed, come see me.

- I appreciate it. Thank you.

If I do end up eliminating Rob right now,

I hope that he can forgive me

'cause I really do feel truly sorry.

- I wanna trust Aron.

I don't know if I can, though.

Something fishy's going on.

We'll see.

.

[dramatic music]

* *

- I have a huge decision to make tonight.

Rob is the most dangerous player in this game.

I don't know if I can go all the way to the end with him.

You know, I think he might beat me.

- Nice shirt, Joe.

- I thought you'd like it. - I love it.

- But at the same time, I feel like

I've been pushing the idea of Stephanie going home

for as long as possible.

It's the big question, can you separate game and personal?

I'm not here to be best friends with everyone.

I'm here to win a game.

So if I wanna be the ultimate opponent for the Banker,

I'm gonna do whatever it takes to win this game.

- Welcome back to the Banker's Temple.

Tonight is going to be your last chance

in the Temple to add money to your final case,

which one of you will soon play for in the finale.

- Yes.

- All right, Aron.

Get up here.

It's time to face the Banker again.

- Let's go. - Round two.

- [sighs]

- You know, there's something different about you.

Chest is puffed up.

- Yeah, a little more confident.

- Let's see your pythons.

Yes!

- Little--oh. - Whoo!

- Yeah. - Ooh.

- All right. Okay, Aron. - Yeah.

- Our cases tonight are numbered 1 through 12,

12 different money amounts.

Amy brought back the $6-million case

from today's excursion.

We're also adding the rest

of the cases you retrieved up on the board.

- Yes, a lot of money.

- And because the Banker has a terrible case of FOMO,

he's adding a bunch of low values

to the left side of the board.

- [boos] - Blah, blah, blah, blah.

- They start at a penny

and go all the way to $6 million.

Now remember, Aron, the goal--

make a good deal by beating the Banker.

If you make a good deal, you stay in the game,

and you have the power to choose

who will be eliminated tonight.

But if you make a bad deal,

it is you who will be eliminated.

It is time to play Deal or No Deal.

- Let's go, Aron! You got this. - Let's go, Aron.

[applause]

- Kamari, Ben, green for the money.

- Yes. - Okay, Aron.

Which one of these 12 cases will you choose as your own?

- My amazing, perfect girlfriend

is the reason I'm here.

She was born on the 10th,

and the 10th has helped-- kept me in this game.

And I think the 10 will keep me in this game tonight too.

- Okay, Ben.

Please bring the case up to the podium.

- I bet it's heavy.

This one gives me a good feeling.

- Yes. - Okay.

Okay, Aron. Are you ready to play?

- I'm ready to play.

- You've gotta open six cases in round one.

Where are you starting?

- I'm picking number 4. - Number 4.

Kamari, let's kick it off.

Something low. - [exhales] Okay.

- $1, $1.

- Open the case.

- Ugh. - [grunts]

[all groan]

4 million off the board.

Where are you going next?

- I'm going for 3.

- Ben, case number 3.

- Let's go one penny, one penny, one penny.

- Please open that case.

Hey, a penny! - Yes!

- All right. [applause]

Next, let's keep it going.

- 12. - Ben, case number 12.

[tense music]

* *

[cheering] - $1!

- Okay. - Good.

- Knocked out the two lowest values.

- There you go. - What's next?

- My grandmother, in Hebrew we call her Bubbee.

And that's five letters,

so we'll pick 5.

- Kamari, case number 5...

- For Bubbee. - For Bubbee.

Let's show us what's inside.

[both groan]

$6 million for Bubbee.

- She's the most valuable person in my life,

so 6 million makes sense.

- Aww.

- What's next? - 11.

- Okay, Ben, case 11.

Let's see what's inside. Please open that case.

[Aron groans]

3 million off the board.

- Brutal.

- Not one of the highest numbers.

You're still playing for 5.5 million.

One more case this round.

- Number 6. - Number 6.

Okay, Ben.

- $100, Ben.

$100...

- Show us what's inside. - Coming right up.

- It's good. - Okay.

50 bucks. - Good job.

Okay, you closed out that round with a small value.

- I did.

[phone rings]

- Here he is now. - There he is.

- Yes.

Yeah, that's what happened.

[sighs]

Okay.

Banker's happy to see you again.

- I'm sure.

- And on that note,

he's already had Ben go ahead and pack your bags

so that you'd be ready to leave after this game.

- Rude. Why'd you do that?

- Had to do it, Aron. I'm sorry.

- But you do have a pretty decent opening offer.

- Okay. - Six figures.

- Okay.

- $589,000.

- Wow.

- Whoo. - [high-pitched] Okay.

- Aron, $589,000 toward the final case.

Deal or no deal?

- This is potentially the first time

my game is in Aron's hands.

.

- So, Aron, deal or no deal?

[tense music]

- Absolutely no deal.

Three large values on the board.

- No deal.

- Agree.

- I would say 500,000 is about middle.

I think a lot of us want a high case total

and a high amount of money,

so they voted no deal.

I'm with them. both: No deal.

- Good job. - Okay.

- Good job, Aron.

- That's it. Aron said no deal.

- Good job.

- Three cases to open in this next round, Aron.

- Yes. - You ready?

- Yep. - Okay.

Where are you going first? - 7.

- Ben, please open that case.

- Yeah! - $100!

[applause]

Where are you going next? - Let's go with 9.

- 750. - Kamari, case number 9.

- 750.

- Kamari, please open it up.

- I chose 9 too.

- Oh, 500! - Yes.

- Small number.

One more case this round.

- Well, there's only gonna be one person

left standing in this game when it's all said and done.

And I see 1 still on the board.

- Case number 1.

Please open the case.

Ugh. - Oh.

- Dang it.

- 5.5 million off the board,

and the air comes out of the room.

Three cases left. [phone ringing]

- Don't even answer it. Don't even answer, Aron.

- [laughs] - Just tell him no deal.

[phone ringing]

- I'm not gonna answer it.

- All right, I am. - Fine.

- Yes.

- It's not gonna be great.

- He did. Okay.

Banker says he was shocked at how poorly

you've been playing this game.

But then he remembered that you've been in the bottom

for half of the excursions.

- Rude, but true.

[suspenseful music]

* *

- The new offer is $1,199,000.

- That's a lot of money. Ooh.

- Currently, the final case stands at $8,908,000.

- Yes. - Wow. Crazy.

- An astounding number.

This Temple right here,

this is the last chance to add money to the final case,

taking the final case up and over 10 million.

That's what we're looking at right now.

What's going on in your mind?

- It's one of the best deals we've seen in a very long time.

Mathematically, you're as close as you can be

to the expected value of that case.

But there's a-- just one-out-of-three chance

that's 3.5 and I go home.

So it's scary.

It's scary.

- If I were playing, that'd be a deal for me.

- Well, and the amount of change that you've made

from the first time you stood there to now,

the amount of money you're playing for,

this is a huge decision.

For $1,199,000,

Aron, deal or no deal?

- It's the correct choice, and I'm gonna say deal.

- Whoa. - Good job.

- Aron, he just took the offer of $1,199,000.

- Good job. - Congratulations.

- Good job. Good job. That's awesome.

- That money goes towards the group final case,

which now stands at $10,107,000.

- Oh, my God.

And one of you will have the chance

to win it all at the finale.

- Wow.

- How are you feeling, Aron?

- I'm a little scared still.

Mathematically, it was the right choice,

but two out of three isn't exactly the best odds either.

- Okay, Aron.

It's now time to see if you made a good deal or a bad deal.

Are you ready?

- Uh, I don't think so, but I'm gonna do it either way.

- Okay. - Oh, my gosh.

- If your case has less than the offer

you just accepted of $1,199,000,

then you've made a good deal

and you've beat the Banker at his own game again,

which means you remain in the game and you are the one

who will choose who will be eliminated immediately.

But if your case is higher than the offer you just accepted,

then you made a bad deal, and you will be eliminated tonight.

- [sighs] You're killin' me, Joe.

- Then I guess there's only one thing left to do.

- Oh.

- Come on, Aron. Let's get lucky.

- Aron, it's time to open your case.

* *

- I know what is on the line here.

The only way I'm not in the final four

is if Aron wins this game tonight.

- Whoo!

If Aron makes a good deal,

he knows he should vote out Rob.

Rob is the biggest threat here.

I just don't know if he has it in him.

- I have played a good game.

I've never been in the bottom two,

and I also feel like I've never had a target on my back.

I feel like I am so close to the final four.

- We're about to find out if you are going

to remain in the game

or if you're about to leave this Temple.

- It all comes down to this.

- Are you ready? - [exhales]

- My entire game is based on what's in that case.

* *

.

[tense music]

- Aron, it's time to open your case.

- Whoo!

- Come on, Aron. - Let's go, bud.

- Come on, buddy.

* *

- Case number 10.

* *

- Oh, no!

- Oh, it's the 3.5.

- Oh, no!

- If it wasn't obvious.

- Oh, no.

- Aron, I hate that I have to say this,

but you made a bad deal.

- I absolutely did.

I don't even know where to start.

This has been an amazing experience.

I know it sucks.

I know I didn't want this outcome,

but I'm happy with my time here.

I'm happy with the people I met.

And--

- You need a hug. I can tell you're tearing up,

and so am I.

[somber music]

- Yeah, I've, um-- there's four--

you know, any four of you guys are deserving of this money,

truly deserving, and, um, I wish you guys all the best.

- I'm so proud of you.

You carried so much in this game.

There were so many times where you could have walked away

and you could have given up.

And I just admire that you stuck through

with it time and time again.

Like, you stayed in it.

That's a testament to you, and you played this game

in an amazing way that you should be proud of.

- Rob, what's it like for you?

- I hate it.

I, uh--

I'm gonna miss you.

And, uh, you're a good guy.

I'm proud to know you.

I'm proud to call you a friend.

- Okay.

Nope. - Aww, that's so sweet.

- Okay, Aron.

[groans] I hate saying this.

- I know. I'm ready for it, though.

- Your path to the final case has come to an end.

You must leave the Temple immediately.

- We'll miss you so much.

- I'm not the Banker's ultimate opponent.

Clearly, you know, the Banker defeated me today.

But I went with the math, 66% chance.

It didn't work out, but, uh,

I'm gonna take away so much from this.

- That's a bond that can't be broken right there, though.

- It's so obvious to see the changes in me from day one.

I'm much more proud of who I am.

I feel more confident, and I think I truly have--

I've become a really much better person.

And that's more important than any money can buy,

to be honest.

Thank you. - It's good meeting you.

- We'll see you, buddy.

[upbeat music]

- [sighs]

- Well, congratulations.

The four of you will be moving on

to the Banker's ultimate test,

which will decide who plays in the finale

for a life-changing amount of money.

So go get some rest because the Banker is now one step

closer to meeting his match.

- I hate that I lost my buddy.

It's tough because Aron has always been a good ally to me.

But more importantly, he's become a good friend.

And I promise I'm gonna do everything

that I can in this game to make sure

I am standing at the end

so that it's not all in vain.

- Next time...

- Do you think we'll find out who it is?

- Joe could be the Banker.

- No.

- I want to meet him. I think we all have a word.

[dramatic music]

- Well, it's fun to dream up, but he always one-ups us.
