Diana and Aaron Lundblade were contestants on the specially-themed episode of the game show that featured Coyne and other expectant mothers and couples.
The then expectant mother said she wanted to be on the game show to be able to show the footage to her son, but unfortunately, due to unknown reasons, the couple's appearance was cut from the episode.
Diana said the appearance may have been cut because she and Aaron were "zonked."
Dressed as a balloon game and carnival worker, the couple was called on to play an ATM-style game. They were given a card to swipe in an ATM machine. Each time the card was swiped, a dollar amount would appear on the screen. To avoid overdrawing and losing the chance to take home any money at all, the couple stopped at $1,500.
The host Wayne Brady then gave them the opportunity to take the $1,500 or choose a prize hidden behind a curtain. The couple gave up the cash prize to see what was behind the curtain, which ended up being an over-sized baby carriage.
Diana, who was 38 weeks pregnant at the time, admitted she and her husband took the chance of getting "zonked" because they were hoping for a car behind the curtain.
Now parents to a 3-month-old baby boy, the Lundblades still walked away with the audience freebies which included a walker, a baby carrier and $100.
