5.2 "Family Value$": Official Play by Play

Notice the dollar sign replacing the letter 'S.' Could this contestant become the third million dollar winner. I've noticed on Instagram posts--especially from the show's official Instagram account--citing that there was something 'big' that happened during the second night of the taping. Is this that certain episode?

This is the second episode of the new season, and I'm hoping that every Wednesday we get 15 weeks of back to back new episodes of DEAL US on CNBC.

In this episode, the models are in all yellow, but not a fan of these dresses. All of the models unchanged, no substitutions.

Casey(?) Heath is the contestant. She is from Sandusky, Ohio, and is a marketing coordinator. She has a big family, one of five siblings who wants a dream home located near her tractor business in Sandusky.

Based on irrelevancy, she picks #4. Remember the last time #4 was picked in primetime?

6 to open.

9: $50
2: $1
19: $75,000
15: $400
22: $1,000
17: $200,000

Now comes the Bankress and her first offer. Should she counter-offer here? The offer is $27,000. Not bad. Casey's family is introduced, including her husband, mother, among others. There is a big fan of the franchise in there; he DVR'd hundreds of episodes of the primetime version, not sure about the awful daytime version.

Bankress calls again, and here's the stipulation: for every offer, a family offer shall be eliminated. That would be an additional $5,000. For example, if she says NO DEAL that's $5,000 added! Casey tells sister Aubrey (not spelled 'Aubrie') to get the fock out. Then says NO DEAL. 5 to open, after the media time out. $5,000 added to total.

Now it's 5 to open:

24: $300,000
5: $100
12: PENNY!
14: $500,000 Strike 1.
10: $750,000 Strike 2.

If it was my way, after that $750,000 case, I would have issued her a yellow. Open a million your next case, and you're shown a red card. Game over. Make the game fast paced.

New offer: $12,000, over half down from previous offer. The next family number eliminated is John, her brother. $10,000 elimination bonus as of now. NO DEAL.

4 to open.

13: $10
18: $75
8: $500
23: $100,000

The million is still on the board. A big offer is coming after the break. Here comes the offer: $41,000. A huge improvement. Once again, a million is still on the board. Could it be in #4? Who is next for Casey to eliminate? Her other brother Jesse. Bonus now totaling $15,000. NO DEAL.

3 to open.

3: $750
25: $300
1: $200

More left side action. Bankress calls. Eight cases in play. Remaining: 6, 7, 11, 16, 20, 21, 26. New offer is--after the media time out--but first, a chair is brought out, for the dad, the superfan. He joins Casey on stage. It feels good to him. It's $77,000 for the offer. Casey now eliminates...her mom. $20,000 bonus. At the moment it would be $97,000 as the go home offer for Casey, but she says...NO DEAL.

2 to open:

26: $1,000,000 Oh boy. I thought the million would be in #4 based on history.
7: $10,000

New offer is down to $45,000. Who's next? Sister Brandy? And she's the one to go. $25,000 bonus as of now. The less supporters, the better. I propose in the future, a supporter-less game of Deal. Howie tests the chair. Casey counter-offers $65,000 to the banker or will she reject? After the media time out, we find out her answer.

Who's left? 6 in play. On stage are 6, 11, 16, 20, 21.

NO DEAL. One to open.

11: $25

Could the dad be next for a total of $30,000 in the pot? Right after the offer from the Bankress for the amount of $60,000. Dad is staying, the other brother is out. $30,000 bonus at this moment. Dad gets back in the chair. $90,000 total if she cashes out.

5 in play; left on stage are 6, 16, 20, 21. There is still $5 on the left side. NO DEAL. One to open.

After the break, it's #6. $5,000.

4 in play; left on stage are 16, 20, 21. Bankress calls. She throws an offer of...$103,000. $4,000 short of the Stan Stava Line. Will she eliminate her dad for $35,000 bonus? Or cash out? $133,000 would be the total, and in 3...2...1...DEAL!

Where was the $400,000? Not in Casey's case, it had $50,000. It was in #21. #20 had the $25,000, while #16 had the $5.

Casey remains the second highest tally this season. Next Wednesday. CNBC Prime. Get Yours.
