Ep 12. Michael and Jahmar

Michael and Jahmar are the featured contestants on this episode of The Wall. The two are lifelong friends who met in middle school and have remained close ever since. They are both from humble beginnings and have struggled to make ends meet, but they are determined to use their time on The Wall to change their lives for the better.

The game begins with Michael answering a series of trivia questions to determine the starting value of the balls they will drop down The Wall. They start with $305,000 and must answer a total of seven questions to determine the value of the balls they will drop, ranging from $1 to $250,000.

Once the value is determined, the game begins. Michael goes first, dropping balls down The Wall in an attempt to land them in one of the designated money slots. Each ball that lands in a money slot adds to their total winnings, while balls that land in the "zero" slot deduct from their total.

As Michael drops balls, Jahmar waits anxiously backstage, watching the game unfold on a screen. The tension is palpable as they rack up thousands of dollars in winnings, with each successful drop bringing them closer to their dream of a better life.

As they approach the final rounds, the stakes get higher and the tension mounts. With over $500,000 on the line, every ball drop becomes crucial. The two friends work together to strategize and decide which slots to aim for based on the values of the remaining balls.

In the end, it all comes down to the final drop. With $789,000 in total winnings, all riding on the last ball, Michael takes a deep breath and drops it down The Wall. The ball bounces around nervously before finally landing in a money slot, adding another $20,000 to their total.

Michael and Jahmar are overjoyed and tearful as they hug and celebrate their victory. They thank each other for being such great friends and for helping each other through the tough times. They also express their gratitude for the opportunity to play The Wall and the hope it has given them for a better future.

The episode ends with Michael and Jahmar walking off into the sunset, arm in arm, with a newfound sense of hope and determination for what the future holds.
