Millionaire's "Countdown to the Oscars" final day. Meredith promotes the giveaway to next year's Academy Awards ceremony.

Tonia Moore
Silver Springs, MD

Tonia is playing a great game and has a lot of big money still on the board. She has $18,100 in her bank. With the money she'd like to buy a special set of earrings. Ever since she saw the movie "Sabrina" she wanted to be Audrey Hepburn but since that's a little out of reach she'd like to have a pair of the simple hoop earrings that Hepburn wore in the movie. She's been looking for 20 years but hasn't found them yet, so
she'll have them made.
