-That is so much money.
-I've never seen this happen! -Let's go!
-So far, the Wall has paid out over $25 million.
It's an all-time record!
He was right. It's the correct answer!
Get the answers... Drop it.
...the Wall adds money.
[ Cheers and applause ]
And now, with even more exciting ways to win...
We are in Wall to Wall.
-Obviously, you want to go big.
-Oh! -But make a mistake,
and the Wall takes away.
-No!
No! No! No!
-Tonight the dream shot goes to a fire-fighting
father-daughter duo from Florida.
So when Lauren followed in her father, Larry's, footsteps,
the two made history as the first father and daughter
to serve together in the Tampa Fire Department.
But that's not the only thing.
Larry is known around Florida because he went viral in 2018
when he came upon a very pregnant service dog
in the Tampa airport.
He jumped right in and he delivered
those eight healthy puppies in the middle of the terminal.
And these two dedicated first responders
are hoping to make history on this stage, too.
They're coming up right now on "The Wall."
-Welcome to "The Wall" on NBC.
**
-Please welcome to the stage Larry and Lauren!
[ Cheers and applause ]
Lauren! Larry! Larry! Lauren!
Yes! Yes! Oh, my God.
-Whoo! -How are you doing?
-Good. How are you? -I am good.
I'm excited to have you on.
I'm excited to tell you more about Larry and Lauren.
They're from Tampa, Florida,
where the apple does not fall far from the tree.
Lauren proudly followed in her father's footsteps
to become a firefighter.
-We have made history being the first father-daughter duo.
And it is such an honor to know
that we've made Tampa Bay history.
Every day when we're both reporting for duty,
he always calls me in the morning
and we have our little father-daughter moments.
-I'm very proud of my daughter Lauren.
In my heart, she's my hero.
We're really tied at the hip. She got my work ethic.
And luckily she ain't got my looks. Well, you know.
-With a huge personality and an even bigger smile,
Larry is a recognizable fixture in the Tampa area.
But after he did something adorable one day, he leveled up.
He became national news and a local hero.
So the fact that you're both firefighters
is incredible and wonderful. -Thank you.
-The puppy story, Larry. The puppy story.
You delivered puppies in an airport.
-Yes. -Someone's like, "Hey, uh,
who ordered the puppies?" What happened?
-First of all, it was lunchtime.
I got to eat.
So my partner said, "Hey, Larry, we got to go somewhere."
I'm like, "Where?"
"We got to deliver some puppies."
I'm like, "Puppies?!"
I don't know nothing about delivering puppies at all.
I know about babies. I don't know about puppies.
Oh, my God. What am I gonna do?
-Mind you, my dad turns into the Incredible Hulk
when he gets hungry, so...
-Hulk deliver puppies. -Yes.
-So I had to talk to the vet and they had to direct me
and my partner how to deliver the puppies.
-Like he said, we usually deliver babies
and never puppies. -Yeah.
-I was very proud of him and I thought it was hilarious
because the puppies were, like, in the palm of his hand.
-Little puppies. -You know?
His big old bear paws. -Yeah, I do got some paws.
-Oh, my God, That was adorable. -Yes.
-I'm hoping today you can get the Wall
to deliver money puppies. -There you go.
A million of puppies.
-Yeah, a million of puppies. -That'd be great.
-Later in the show,
the million-dollar bin is on the Wall,
and we're gonna give you 10 chances
at that million dollars, but first,
we're gonna start with Free Fall Plus.
Let's load up those three balls.
So you know how this works.
You have to lock in your answer before the first ball
breaks the plane at the top of those slots right there.
And then we just have to finish Free Fall
in the positive for a chance to go on to play
for millions of dollars.
You can see that there is a golden plus pad right there.
If you're very sure you know the answer, you can hit that.
All the balls will turn gold. That will double the amounts.
Alright? But if you're wrong,
it also means that you'll lose whatever double the amount was,
so you only get to use that one time.
-Okay. -And let's just get into this.
-Let's do it. -It's time to get into it.
-Let's do it. -Alright!
-Here's our first question of Free Fall Plus.
-I don't know.
Uh, let's do Sour.
-Go. "B." "B." "B."
-They pressed Sour for $100.
20,000. We have 25,000.
-$45,000.
-I'm not sure. -You weren't sure.
But guessing 50/50 paid off. That's a correct answer.
-Yes! Whoo! -Yes!
...you have on the Wall so far. -Good job, Daddy.
-Here comes question two.
-Kiwi. "A." -Kiwi, kiwi.
-Alright. They have --
They have summoned Free Fall Plus.
There's $100 there.
$25,100 could be $50,200.
Kiwi is a correct answer.
-Whoo! Yeah, baby!
-You have a ton of money on the Wall right now.
-Oh, my gosh. -Dang.
It's time for question three of Free Fall.
[ Indistinct shouting ]
-Alright. We're going with zinc.
We see $100 and a $100 and a $1.
$201.
That is a correct answer -- zinc --
for $201.
Your amount on the Wall right now is...
-Yes. Yes.
-Here's your next question of Free Fall.
-Which one, Daddy?
-The bald eagle. -Bald eagle.
-No, no, bald eagle's "A."
"A," "A," bald eagle's "A."
-$10,101.
You said bald eagle.
The giant panda was the correct answer.
I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry.
It's okay. It's alright. Listen.
Your total on the Wall right now is...
The good news is you will still have enough money
to move on regardless of what happens.
We have one question left.
Let's see if we can get you over $100,000 on this one.
Here's your last question in Free Fall.
-"A." -Jack and Jill.
-Jack and Jill.
You got 25,000 in there.
We have 10,000.
We have 20,000.
[ Indistinct shouting ]
$30,100.
-Real good, Daddy.
-Yes. Jack and Jill is the correct answer.
Your total on the Wall right now is...
I mean, come on. -Yes. Yes.
-So this money is gonna be the base for your guarantee.
-Okay. -Later on in the show,
there's gonna be a big decision to make --
rip up a contract or sign it.
That contract will be based on $115,500
plus bonus money
for every question you get right of $20,000 each
or just tear it up and risk it,
you know, potentially for millions of dollars.
Do you play it safe? Do you risk it?
Every day you go out there
and risk your lives for your community.
I don't know if you came in with a plan
or you're just gonna see how it goes.
I know that, Lauren, you decided
you're gonna go behind the Wall.
-Yes. -Why did you decide
to go back and answer questions?
-Because my dad is such an amazing man,
and I wanted to pay homage to him.
So I felt like he should have the chance
to have a good time out here
while I go back there and make the decisions
that he normally would make. -Okay.
-You obviously have a close connection.
You're father daughter, you work together.
-Yes. -You adore each other.
So the next time you see each other,
maybe you'll have millions of dollars. Who knows?
-Daddy, it is an honor to not only wear your last name,
but to also put on the same uniform as you.
Man, you -- 26 years of putting your life on the line.
You're killing it. You're doing so good.
-Thank you.
-And I can't express how proud of you I am.
From delivering puppies to fighting
some of the biggest fires Tampa has ever had.
And not only are you my father, you're also my role model.
And you've believed in me
even when I did not believe in myself.
And I just cannot say how grateful I am to you.
Today I want to honor you because you're about to go out,
and I want to send you out with the best retirement possible.
I just want you to be courageous and lay it all on the line.
-Yes. -And I love you.
-I love you, too. -I know you do.
-Yes. Lauren, first of all, it's an honor
to be your father from the bottom of my heart.
-You're gonna make me cry these lashes off.
That's gonna make me cry.
-Usually...a kid look up to his parents.
But, Lauren, I look up to you. You are my hero.
And I love you so much. Love you.
-Lauren, I have to take you back now.
I'm so sorry. You're gonna be great back there.
We're gonna be pulling for you out here.
Just eliminate answers when you can.
Take deep breaths. -Thank you.
-Drink plenty of water. -Thank you. See you soon.
-Bye. Alright. There goes Lauren.
Lauren's not gonna know what's going on out here.
You could have millions of dollars.
We could have nothing.
We're gonna just play it as it comes,
take each moment as it comes.
When we come back,
the million-dollar Superdrop is up next.
-To the right, to the right, to the right! Whoo!
-And later...
how risky will Lauren be with her decision?
-I genuinely don't know which way to go.
-How much will the red balls take from their total?
-To the left, to the left, to the left!
-To the left! -Left, left, left, left!
-Oh!
-Welcome back to "The Wall."
I'm here with Larry, a firefighter of over 25 years
on the job in Tampa, Florida.
His daughter Lauren, also a firefighter in the same company,
is behind the Wall in isolation.
Their total on the Wall right now...
But before we start round two... -Yes, yes, yes, yes.
-...I see that you've brought some folks in the VIP section.
-Yes, I did. Yes, I did.
-Please tell us who you brought in the VIP section.
-Well, there's my father-in-law, Bob Ward.
-Hi, Bob. -In the middle of it,
there's my wife, Felicia, for 33 years.
-Hi, Felicia. And who else is here?
-That's my baby daughter right there. Benet.
-Hi. -I'm so glad you're here.
Let's take a look.
You see the $150,000 bin is up there on the Wall.
That's the top value on the Wall this round.
And, you know, we're just gonna start this with a Superdrop.
-That sounds good to me.
-We're gonna take seven balls and turn them green
and then we're gonna put them in every slot.
Let's load those up with seven green balls.
[ Cheers and applause ]
Later on, at the end of this round,
those all turn red. -Alright!
-Get ready to Superdrop!
-Superdrop, baby!
To the right, to the right, to the right!
Come on, man. To the right!
Come on, come on, come on, come on.
-Oh, come on!
25,000.
[ Indistinct shouting ]
-Whoo! Yes!
-175,113.
Not bad. -Good job, baby.
-...on the Wall right now. -Whoo!
-So now here we have the questions
because we have a lot of control.
Okay? Because you're gonna decide
where to play the ball from.
5, 6, 7 over higher amounts tend to be a bit riskier.
-Okay.
-If you're feeling like you want to be safer,
1, 2 or 3 are over the lower amounts,
and that's gonna protect the money you have.
Then later, a new thing we've added
this season is called Wall to Wall,
where I'm gonna turn a ball gold.
You drop it in. Seven gold balls up there.
We're gonna give you the option to try
for more money than ever, if you choose to do that.
It's like a Superdrop for one question.
-Okay, I get it.
-Here are your first set of answers.
So based on this, where do you want
to play your first ball?
-You know...
I'm gonna play it at 6.
-The confidence. We love to see it.
-Alright.
There it goes.
Number 6.
Send the question over to Lauren.
-Come on, Lauren. You can do it.
-Oh, Mr. Tony Hawk. Sir, please don't get mad at me.
But I was never big into skateboarding
because I'm clumsy.
So I know you're the baddest skateboarder there is.
And that's on lock.
-Yes, he was. Yes, he was.
-Like, Tony, because you're such a phenomenal skateboarder,
I feel like you go big all the time.
-Yes, he does.
-And I'm thinking one and a half rotations.
I mean, I feel like
any skateboarder could do that, right?
-Yes, that's true. That's true. That's true.
-Three and a half is pretty legit.
I mean, 900, you can divide that by 3.
-You got a feeling.
-Three and a half is really impressive, Tony.
-Come on.
-I think I'm gonna go with "C," three and a half rotations.
Lock it in. -Yes. Yes.
-Alright. You can see where she's going.
It's got to sound impressive. 900, the first person to do it.
A rotation is 360 degrees.
So 900 will be two and a half, 360,
360, and then a half of that -- 900.
But a very hard question right out of the gate.
You played one ball from number 6.
-Yes. -Drop it!
-Come on. Turn left, turn left.
Turn left, turn left, turn left!
-Turn to the left!
-Left, come on! Left, left, left!
Left, left, left, left, left!
-Oh! -Oh!
-$100,000.
-That's okay. -That's alright.
You still have 190,613.
-That's okay. That's okay.
That's okay. That's okay. Yes. Yes.
-Alright. Here is your next set of answers.
Now, Larry, you can double up if you would like.
You know, that could be a potential $300,000 question.
-Don't do it. -I say do it.
I say do it.
-Y'all feel over there, huh?
-She hates flowers and she's allergic to flowers.
-Go big or go home.
-Go slow.
-Wait, does that mean double up or don't double up?
-Do it. -Be careful.
So...[laughs]
So I'm not gonna double up. -Okay.
-I'ma play 2. I'ma play 2.
-Okay. Alright. One ball from 2.
Go ahead and put that in there.
Are you just thinking you want to be a little safe right now
because we just took a big hit?
-Well, one, I want to be safe. We did take a big hit.
-Yeah. -Two, she's allergic to flowers,
so she probably don't care about flowers anyway.
-Right. -I'm doing "A," "B" equals 2.
-Alright.
[ Laughter ]
Let's send the question over to Lauren.
-[ Laughs ]
Ooh, Daddy-O.
When I'm thinking about Hawaii, I'm a '90s baby,
so all I can think of is, like, "Johnny Tsunami."
But I'm trying to remember which flower that I see a lot.
When I think of Hawaii, I think of beautiful,
different-colored flowers and stuff.
So white lotus?
I mean, that just seems so, like, "Eh."
I think I saw a yellow flower in "Johnny Tsunami,"
so I'm going to go with "A," yellow hibiscus.
Lock it in?
-Alright. -Okay.
This flower is only found in Hawaii.
It grows on all the islands. It's the yellow hibiscus.
-Yes!
-Which yields the green ball,
which means we're gonna add some money to the Wall.
So let's drop it.
-Whoo!
Come on, come on, go to the right, to the right.
To the right, to the right, to the right, to the right.
-Get back to the left!
Oh! $10.
$10. -$10 more than I had.
-$10 is more. -Yes, it's more. It's more.
-We're just adding money.
But the important thing about that is that
because she got that question right,
we're gonna add $20,000 to your guarantee.
So now your guarantee is over $135,000.
-Alright.
-So here is your last set of answers this round.
Now, Larry, you can play one ball.
You could play three
or you might go, "I want to go Wall to Wall!"
In which we turn that ball gold.
It becomes a fancy ball.
And then we put seven fancy balls at the top of the Wall.
But beware, because if she gets it wrong
and they turn red, oh, it's not a good day.
-Yes, I know, right?
Everything, beautiful, and perfect.
-Thank you.
-Yeah, that's my wife right there.
Yes. You know what? I'm gonna triple up 3.
-Okay, go ahead.
We're gonna de-fancy that gold ball.
It's just a regular ball now.
And put three in there.
3 on 3.
There's one.
-Make friends with those balls.
-There's two. -Alright.
We got 3 and 3.
Let's send the question over to Lauren.
-Alright, give it a whirl.
-This is one of the few
Christmas-y romantic comedy movies that I've never watched.
-Oh, never?
-But let's -- let's give it a whirl.
Alright. "Love Actually."
Wait a second.
So this man is trying to get with his best friend's wife?
Like, what kind of movie is this?
-I know. -This is not okay.
Not okay whatsoever.
But anyways, you know,
if I'm, like, trying to be stolen away from my guy,
I think I need more than just "To me, you are perfect"
because I feel like everyone thinks they're perfect,
so I need a little bit more, like, finesse or razzle dazzle.
To me, you are beautiful.
I mean, she could probably guess that because of the fact
that you're trying to steal your best friend's girl.
But I feel like "everything" kind of holds weight
just because of the fact
that he's willing to ruin his friendship.
He doesn't care.
His morals are out of the window.
I'm gonna go with...
"A," to me, you are everything.
-Yes. -Lock it in.
-Alright. Lauren coming down very hard
on the characters of "Love Actually."
-Yes, she is. -Does not approve.
-No, not at all.
-"Love Actually."
To me, you are perfect was the correct answer.
Perfect.
Red. We have three red balls we have to drop down.
But you played them far to the left,
so anything can happen.
Go ahead and drop it!
-Let's drop it to the left, left!
To the left, to the left!
-Oh, that one's going way right.
-[ Indistinct shouting ]
-Oh, there's a 25. There's a dollar.
-Oh!
-There's a 75. There's 100,000.
$100,001.
That takes you down to...
-Yes. Yes. -Alright.
Well, there's still some more red balls to drop.
-Yes.
-Not my favorite part of the show,
but we have to do the evil Superdrop.
-Yes.
-We have to drop seven red. Let's load those up.
Alright. $90,000.
Let's see if we can save as much of that as possible.
-$1. $1.
-$1, $1, $1!
-Evil Superdrop.
-Come on, $1, $1, $1, $1!
-Come on. -$1, $1, $1!
-Come on!
There's a 10. There's a dollar.
There's 100. There's 75.
There's 100.
Wow. Actually not bad.
-Not bad. -Not bad at all.
You didn't lose everything. -Yeah.
-So this is very good.
75,231 was the Super drop.
Your total on the Wall right now...
-Not bad. Not bad.
-It doesn't matter, because when we come back from break,
we're gonna add a million-dollar bin to the Wall.
-Alright. Now, come on. We want that million dollars.
-With four free shots at it...
-To the right. To the right.
-Oh, come on. Get in there. Yes!
...how many millions will Larry add to their total?
-Keep going to the right. Keep going to the right.
-It could happen.
Yes! -Whoo!
-Welcome back to "The Wall." I'm here with Larry.
Part-time farmer, full-time firefighter
in the city of Tampa.
He made history there as part of the first father-daughter duo
to serve in the same fire company together.
But his responsibility as a first responder
can take him anywhere.
He went viral in 2018
for helping to deliver eight healthy puppies
after a service dog went into labor
in the middle of a terminal at Tampa International Airport.
His daughter Lauren, the other half
of that history-making pair is back in isolation
behind the Wall.
So far, she's got one question right.
Their total on the Wall...
It doesn't matter because the million-dollar bin
is up there right now.
And... you know, anything can happen.
So we're just gonna start
by giving you four green balls in this round.
Four free shots at a million.
Now, wherever you decide to choose those from,
it's gonna come back at the end of the round as red balls.
And then, of course, the questions in the middle,
that's really gonna tip the scales
in your favor or against it.
So where would you like to play that first green ball?
-I'm gonna play it in 7. -Alright. Drop it in there.
Alright. Why 7?
-The wife and I, we got married in July.
-Okay. -Seventh month.
And she's been my rock, my love from day one.
She always, you know, working for everybody else,
giving for everybody else.
I figure if I get that million dollars right there,
I want to give this to her. So that's why I picked 7.
-Number 7. I hope this happens.
Aggressive play right out of the gate,
hovering right over that million-dollar bin.
-Lucky 7, lucky 7, lucky 7. -Drop it.
-One million! -Come on, baby!
7, 7, 7, 7, 7!
Whoo.
Million, million, million!
To the right, to the right, to the right.
Come on, to the right!
To the right, to the right, to the right.
-Get in there. Come on, come on, to the right!
Oh! Okay. Okay. $1. Okay. Okay.
Alright. Okay.
-$1.
Where do you want to play your second ball?
-My second ball is gonna be on number 4.
-Number 4. Drop it in.
Alright.
-Reason for number 4 --
My baby doll over there, Benet.
She always said, "Dad, play in the middle."
Play in the middle."
So I figured 4 is in the middle.
And there we go.
-Alright. Right down the middle.
Couple lucky bounces to the right,
this could take your total up over $1 million.
Drop it. -Come on, 4.
Come on, 4. -Come on. Come on.
Alright, Benet, Benet, come on.
-We want the million dollars.
-Million dollars.
To the right, to the right, to the right,
to the right, to the right, to the right!
Come on, to the right, to the right.
Come on, come on, come on, to the right.
Oh, yeah! Whoo!
Yeah, baby, yes!
Whoo!
That's what I'm talking about! Whoo-hoo!
-Right down the middle into $200,000.
[ Cheers and applause ]
That's a big hit right there.
That takes your total all the way up to...
Now your third ball.
-My third ball is gonna be number 5.
-Alright, drop it in there.
Let's see if we can get that in to the million.
Playing in number 5.
This could take you over $1.2 million.
-Come on. -Drop it.
-Come on.
Alright. To the right, to the right, to the right,
to the right, come on.
Keep going to the right. Keep going to the right.
Yes. Yes. Yes.
-Oh! -Okay, okay, okay.
Yes. That's good.
-So close. So close. -So close.
-You have a final green ball.
Where would you like to play that one?
-I'll play that at number 2. -Alright.
Alright, let's drop that in. Number 2.
Number 2 is great, but the kick to the right,
this could take you over $1.2 million.
-Let's go all the way to the million.
Number 2 to the million.
-Alright, number 2, go to the million.
-Drop it! -Drop it! Come on.
Alright, come on. Go to the million.
Come on, come on, come on.
Come on. Right, right.
Come on, come on, come on.
Oh!
That's okay. That's okay. -Alright.
-That's okay. That's okay. That's good.
$100 more.
-Alright. Now we get to the questions.
We'll give you the answers.
Where do you want to play that from?
-I think 3.
-3's good.
-Alright. Everyone's happy with 3.
-Yes. -Drop that in there.
Let's send Lauren the question.
-What?
-I know.
-When we sit around at the firehouse and talk,
the last thing would come -- The last conversation
that would ever come up is explorers, you know?
-Don't overthink, don't overthink.
-I'm gonna say, "A," because Ulysses...
I don't know why it's popping out to me,
but I'm just trusting my gut.
We're gonna go, "A," Robert and Ulysses, lock it in.
-Alright. Famed explorers Lewis and Clark.
Correct answer was Meriwether Lewis and William Clark.
So sorry. -That's okay.
-Take one ball from number 3.
So this could be okay. -Yes.
-Let's go ahead and drop it.
-$1.
$1, $1!
$1, $1, $1, $1!
$1, $1!
Yes! Yes! Yes!
Whoo!
-Very nicely done.
Way to tell that ball where to go.
-I know. I don't mess around.
-Your total on the Wall right now...
Very good job.
Larry has two questions left in the game.
He's gonna be able to double up, triple up.
Millions of dollars still possible.
You're watching "The Wall" on NBC.
With just two questions left in the game,
Larry goes all in.
You can double up if you want to.
-I'm gonna double up. -Okay.
And later, will Lauren sign a contract
for guaranteed money...
-As a firefighter, we have to make decisions like this.
-...or tear it up for a chance at millions?
-But right now, I genuinely don't know which way to go.
-Welcome back to "The Wall."
So this is where everything can change in an instant.
I'm here with Larry.
He's got two questions left in the game.
Millions of dollars still in play.
Lauren's back in isolation.
No idea what's going on out here.
Their current total...
-Yes, yes, yes.
-Let's see if we can make that 1.2 million.
-There you go.
-Here are the answers for the next question.
-Alright, alright, alright.
-Now, you can double up if you want to.
-Double up. -Yeah, I'm gonna double up.
-Okay. -Yeah, yeah, yeah.
-Where are you gonna play those from?
-What y'all think? -4.
-4. Be smart. Be smart. 4.
-I'm gonna double up at 4.
-Okay. Drop those in. Double up 4.
-Right down the middle.
-Yes, right down the middle again.
-Alright. Be good to us.
-Very good play because we need to get
as much money on the Wall as possible to protect us
from those four red balls later on.
-Alright, you can do it, Lauren.
-Alright, let's give Lauren the question.
-Alright, Lauren. Come on. You can do it. You can do it.
-I genuinely don't know with this one, Daddy.
-Just relax and weed them out.
-* Nacho, nacho man *
* I want to be a nacho man *
I mean, nacho man is just right there in your face.
Like, how could you not use that, Weird Al?
* My bologna *
Like * My bologna *
* Bologna *
I mean, you could probably work with that one.
-Right. Okay.
-* I love Rocky Road *
Oh, that's another beat. it could have gone to.
-Yes.
-Addicted to spuds.
Like * Yeah, I'm addicted, I'm addicted to... *
I actually am. I'm a potato girl.
I think more people eat potatoes than ice cream.
So with that being said,
I'm gonna go with "A," I love Rocky Road.
Lock it in.
-Three of these are Weird Al songs.
Probably not surprising to anyone that I know
all of the lyrics to all of them.
The one that he did not record was "Nacho Man,"
which I believe was on an episode of "The Simpsons."
That's two from number 4.
Let's see if we can just get two 1's
right here on either side of the 300.
-Come on, two 1's. -Drop 'em.
-1, 1, 1, 1!
1, 1, 1, 1, 1!
Come on, 1 to the left. 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1.
-Oh, this one -- I don't like this one.
400, 50,000.
I'm sorry.
It's gonna take you down to zero.
-That's okay. -That's okay.
-It's okay. -But it's not over yet.
-Brighter days ahead. -Yes, yes, yes.
-It's not over till it's over.
And it's not over yet. -Yes.
-The good news is we still have a final question.
-Yes, yes, yes. -You'll be able to triple up.
And despite the bad luck up to this point,
you have a huge opportunity right now to make a fortune
in one question.
The only thing that matters is what happens next.
So I'm gonna give you the answers.
-Alright.
-Now, would you like to triple up?
-Yes, I would. -Well, okay.
Where would you like to play that from?
-I'm gonna play it right at 7.
-What a great idea. Drop those three balls in there.
-Alright. Come on, lucky 7.
-One...
-Come on, lucky 7.
Lucky 7. 7, you been good to me.
-...two...
-Good things come in threes.
-Million dollars. There we go.
-...and three. -Alright.
-Okay. Larry has three balls, ended up at 7.
This could be the comeback story of the entire series.
We'll throw Lauren the question when we come back.
You're watching "The Wall" on NBC.
-Welcome back to "The Wall."
If you're just joining us, Larry has tripled up on 7.
This is the last question of the game.
The answers are...
We're trying to get off of zero dollars.
This one could be worth $3 million.
-Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes.
-Let's send her the question. -Come on, baby. You can do this.
-What?
Daddy... -Yes.
-I know that this is the last question,
the most important one.
And I am not sure how the board is doing,
but I really hope
you did not put more than one ball in that slot.
-I had to. We ain't had no money.
-Because I have absolutely no clue what to do with this one.
-Figure it out.
-Of all the toys to play with as a child,
this was the last one I was picking up.
This was not on the list of things to play with.
-Alright, Lauren, you can do it.
-Okay. We're gonna try to figure it out.
These numbers are big. Very big.
Billion, trillion, quadrillion, quintrillion.
It's got to be a lot because, I mean...
6-sided, 54-square, 3-D puzzle.
I don't think it's 43 quintrillion because...
Yeah, that's just too big.
My number bank does not go that high,
but I think it's between 65 trillion
and 13 quadrillion.
Uh...
This is pretty stressful.
I think I'm gonna go...
"B," 65 trillion.
Lock it in.
-I like it. I like it. I like it. I like it.
-It's a hard question.
How many configurations are there of the Rubik's Cube?
Correct answer was 43 quintillion.
-Wow.
-Which is an insanely high number.
And unfortunately, there's nothing to take away.
So we're just gonna drop those red balls
and see where they would have gone.
Go ahead and drop them.
**
$10.
oh.
We have zero dollars on the Wall.
We're not gonna drop the four red balls.
We don't need to do that.
I'm really sorry about how that played out.
Now we're just gonna jump straight to the deliberation.
-Okay. -So Lauren
has a really difficult choice to make back there.
Lauren doesn't know what's out here on the Wall right now.
She has no way of knowing what that is.
You know, she could rip it up. She could sign it.
But let's talk about what your guarantee would be,
because we want everyone to have the chance to leave
with guaranteed money. -Yes.
-Your guarantee was based on your Free Fall amount...
Lauren got one question right. 20 grand on top of that.
So your guarantee is worth $135,500.
-Yes. -If she signs this contract.
-Yeah.
-If she tears it up, there's zero dollars on the Wall.
-Yes. -And I would be super bummed.
-Yeah. Me too. -I really like you.
And I really like your family,
and I want you to have this money for retirement.
So it's up to Lauren.
Six figures guaranteed.
It's all riding on her.
She can't see us or hear us,
but I'm gonna bring her up on the Wall
and just tell her what you're feeling right now.
And I'm gonna go send her the contract.
-Alright. Lauren, sign the contract.
-Please. -Just breathe. Relax.
You're doing good. I love you.
Sign the contract, I'll love you even more.
Just joking. I'm just joking.
I love you the same. I'm just joking.
I'm sending the wavelength to you now.
Come on.
-There it goes. -There we go.
Just sign it.
-She now has the contract.
Everything is in her hands.
We have to cut off the feed
because she has this very difficult decision to make.
-Alright. -We're not gonna know
what she did until the end of the show.
**
-Oh, you know, as a firefighter,
we have to make decisions like this,
life or death, life-or-death decisions all the time.
But right now, this decision is not just about me.
It's not just about my dad. It's about my entire family.
And it's all on my shoulders.
I honestly think I may have gotten two,
maybe three questions right, if that.
And on one side, there's guaranteed money
and that could change a lot of things for my family.
My dad's about to retire, so if I sign, like,
this could send my dad off on an amazing retirement.
But then on the other hand, I could play it big, you know,
and not just play it safe.
We could have the biggest farm that my dad could even imagine.
And...I don't --
I genuinely don't know what to do.
**
I just don't want to disappoint my family
with whatever I choose.
I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.
-We're just waiting for that contract to come back.
How are you feeling? -Oh.
I feel a little nervous right now.
I know -- I feel -- She looked undecisive in her mannerism.
I don't know what she's gonna do,
but hopefully she'll sign this contract.
-Yeah. Oh, I hear it. Oh.
The contract has arrived. The decision is made.
If Lauren signed it,
you're going home with over $135,000.
We'll find out when we come back.
Coming up...
If you tore up the contract,
you're risking that for what was left on the Wall.
This all-or-nothing decision worth over $135,000.
-The entire time, I was just thinking
that you guys have been such good parents to us,
and I don't want to let you down.
Welcome back to "The Wall." I'm here with Larry.
It is time to end the suspense
and find out what Lauren decided.
Let's bring her back out. Lauren, please come on out.
Hello, Lauren. -Hi, Chris.
-You okay? -Yeah, I'm nervous.
-I'm sure. Yeah.
So before you tell us what you decided,
I'll bring you up to speed.
You got one question right.
I'm gonna give you $20,000 toward your guarantee.
So if you signed the contract I sent you,
it was worth $135,500. -Okay.
-If you tore it up, you're risking that
for what was left on the Wall, which you don't know.
So I'm gonna invite you to please come back over
and find out how this plays out.
-Oh. -Uh-huh.
-I know, like, we've been through
a lot of stressful situations,
but that was honestly the hardest thing
I've ever had to do.
And... -That's okay.
-The entire time, I was just thinking
that you guys have been such good parents to us,
and I don't want to let you down.
And I was going back and forth, back and forth,
thinking about how you and mommy are retired --
Well, soon to be retired.
And I wanted to set you guys up with an amazing retirement.
-Yes. -But at the same time,
I was thinking, like, YOLO
and just risk it for the biscuit and just go big or go home.
This Wall could have been really nice to you
and we could have balled out, you know?
-Yes.
-But, um...
I went to rip it...
and I signed it, so...
-Lauren...
I'm so honored to be your father.
You are my hero. You're my super hero.
I am so proud of you.
I'm so honored, you being a fellow firefighter.
You make our name stronger.
The legacy of our name will go forever and a day.
But at the end of the day,
the Wall was not good to us.
We had no money.
-Oh, thank God. -You made the right decision!
You made the right decision!
$135,500!
-Oh, my God.
-Oh, my gosh.
I'm so glad this had a happy ending.
I got to tell you something.
This family of first responders
doing amazing things in Tampa.
Tampa, you are so lucky to have this family.
And we were lucky to have them on tonight.
Thank you so much for watching "The Wall."
-I hope this made your day a little bit better.
Good night.
$135,500.
Yes!
