Today's contestants are:
- Omar, a public health official, eventually caught a pass from Drew Brees;
- Ciara, an undergraduate student, is with the University of Maryland Gamer Symphony Orchestra; and
- Tim, an app developer, rolled up his car window when faced with a charging rhino. Tim is a one-day champ with winnings of $16,800.
Jeopardy!
MYTHOLOGICAL ENDINGS // CLASSIC CARS // FAST FACT // IF YOU LIKED IT // THEN YOU SHOULD HAVE... // PUT A "RING" ON IT
DD1 - $1,000 - FAST FACT - U.S. postage stamps bearing this word began going on sale in April 2007 (Ciara won $3,000 from her leading score of $6,200.)
Scores going into DJ: Tim $3,600, Ciara $9,200, Omar $6,200.
Double Jeopardy!
AUSTRIA'S BORDERS // 20th CENTURY FICTION // SCI. & MED. ABBREV. // FEUD ORIGINS // IT'S A RACE // DOUBLE MEANINGS
DD2 - $1,600 - SCI. & MED. ABBREV.- The "Z" in Canada's LZT telescope refers to this, so it mostly points straight up (Tim moved into second by doubling to $8,000 vs. $10,400 for Ciara.)
DD3 - $1.200 - AUSTRIA'S BORDERS - This tiny landlocked constitutional monarchy's border with Austria is a scant 21 miles (Once again, Tim went from third to second, winning $4,000 from his total of $8,800 vs. $15,600 for Ciara.)
Scores going into FJ: Tim $11,200, Ciara $19,600, Omar $13,800.
Final Jeopardy!
DISNEY CHARACTERS - In the source material from more than 3 centuries ago, her name was Badr al-Budur, “full moon of full moons”
Everyone was correct on FJ. Ciara added $8,001 to win with $27,601.
Odds and ends
Wagering strategy: This marks the third consecutive game in which a contestant trailing by a substantial margin found DD3, but only wagered less than half of their total.
That's before our time: No one knew the mid-20th century gossip columnist who had a well-known feud with Louella Parsons was Hedda Hopper.
Correct Qs: DD1 - What is forever? DD2 - What is Zenith? DD3 - What is Liechtenstein? FJ - Who is Jasmine?
