DETROIT (WWJ) -- It's safe to say that it was a really great night for a Detroit babysitter after winning $121,000 on NBC's "Weakest Link."
Appearing on Sunday night's episode, the woman introduced herself as Rachel from Detroit, to host Jane Lynch and her seven opponents -- adding that she owned a babysitting company.
In round one, each player banked $5,000 out of a potential $25,000. After each round, contestants vote for the player they think is the "weakest link." Whomever receives the most votes will go home without any money.
After surviving the first round of votes, Rachel and the remaining six players banked $17,500 out of a possible $50,000.
Rachel made it far in the game without becoming the weakest link, until round five.

In the fifth round, Rachel and the remaining four players banked $35,000 out of a possible $250,000. After missing two questions, she was the weakest link, but survived the voting to make it to the next round.
The final round found three contestants remaining with $10,000 banked out of a possible $500,000. In total, the players banked $121,000. Rachel was the strongest link in this round.
After surviving the last vote, she made it to the final head-to-head round where the winner would win the entire amount of cash banked.

Each player is asked five questions in the final round, and whomever answers the most correctly, wins the game.
Rachel won after correctly answering three questions, and went home with $121,000.
Lynch congratulated Rachel, the "strongest link" and sent her home saying "Now you'll be able to fund your business, and provide a service to people."
