Ep 2. Chuck Runyon And Dave Mortensen: Oklahoma City, Ok

Chuck Runyon and Dave Mortensen: Oklahoma City, Ok is the second episode of the third season of Secret Millionaire. The episode follows the journey of Chuck Runyon and Dave Mortensen, two successful businessmen who co-founded the Anytime Fitness chain of gyms, as they travel to Oklahoma City to live and work in poverty-stricken neighborhoods in disguise.

At the beginning of the episode, Chuck and Dave introduce themselves and explain their motivation for participating in the show. They both grew up in humble backgrounds, and as successful entrepreneurs, they want to give back to those who are struggling. They choose Oklahoma City because it is a city that has suffered from economic hardships and natural disasters, such as tornadoes.

As they arrive in Oklahoma City, Chuck and Dave are transformed into different personas. Chuck becomes "Charlie," a construction worker who recently lost his job, and Dave becomes "Dennis," an ex-convict who is struggling to find steady employment. They are sent to different neighborhoods to work and live among the locals.

Charlie is sent to live with a single mother named Lacey and her six-year-old daughter. Lacey works multiple jobs, including cleaning motel rooms and working at a local diner, to support her family. Charlie helps Lacey with her work and even fixes some of the broken appliances in her apartment. He learns about the challenges of being a single parent and the difficulties of making ends meet in a low-paying job.

Dennis is sent to work at the Boys & Girls Club, where he helps mentor young children from underprivileged backgrounds. He also works with a group of ex-convicts who are trying to turn their lives around. Dennis is moved by the dedication of the staff at the club and the positive impact they have on the children's lives.

Throughout their journey, Chuck and Dave meet with various charities and organizations that help those in need. They learn about the impact of these organizations and the importance of giving back to the community. They are also deeply touched by the stories of the individuals they meet, including a homeless veteran and a single mother who lost her home in a tornado.

At the end of the episode, Chuck and Dave reveal their true identities and give back to the people and organizations they met during their time in Oklahoma City. They donate money to the Boys & Girls Club and to a charity that helps rebuild homes for those affected by natural disasters. They also give a gift of a year's membership at Anytime Fitness to Lacey, who hopes to start a healthier lifestyle.

Chuck and Dave are shown reflecting on their experience and the lessons they learned about the value of hard work and the importance of giving back. The episode is a thoughtful portrayal of the struggles faced by those in poverty and the impact that a little help can make. It is a reminder that even those with the most success can find fulfillment and purpose in helping others.
