- Robin, a hospitality executive, had an office on the side of a volcano; and

- Kevin, an attorney, helped tenants avoid eviction.  Kevin is a one-day champ with winnings of $25,201.

Robin led at every commercial break but missed both of her DD opportunities, so she carried a slim advantage into FJ with $8,600 vs. $6,300 for Kevin and $5,600 for Dominic.

DD1 - $400 - SCIENTISTS - I look at the world & I notice it's turning -- thanks to this man who studied at the University of Krakow in the 1490s (Robin lost $2,000 from her score of $4,400.)

DD2 - $1,600 - U.S. HISTORY - The Louisiana Purchase Exposition opened April 30, 1904 in this non-Louisiana city (Kevin won $1,500 from his total of $4,400 vs. $8,800 for Robin.)

DD3 - $2,000 - AUTHORS WHEN YOUNG - Born Chloe Wofford, she converted to Catholicism at age 12 & added the name Anthony to hers, from St. Anthony of Padua (With just one other top-row clue remaining, Robin lost $3,000 from her score of $11,600 vs. $6,300 for Kevin.)

FJ - AROUND THE WORLD - In the 1860s a zoologist proposed that this island was once part of a lost continent he dubbed Lemuria

Robin and Kevin were correct on FJ. Robin added $4,001 to win with $12,601.
