Jeopardy! 

STATE CAPITAL ATTRACTIONS // NUMERIC HOMOPHONES // FROM SHE TO SHINING SHE // JEWISH-AMERICAN TRADITIONS // OUTSIDE YOUR HOUSE // COLLEGE SPORTS MASCOTS

DD1 - $800 - FROM SHE TO SHINING SHE - Though indicted by Duterte's govt. in this nation, Nobel Prize winner Maria Ressa said, "We are journalists &... will not be intimidated" (Mallory added $1,500 to her leading score of $3,000.)

Scores going into DJ: Danielle $1,800, Mallory $8,300, Cherry $1,200.

Double Jeopardy! 

SHAKESPEARE PLAYS BY QUOTE // U.S. GOVERNMENT // JOHN GOODMAN IS HARD TO FIND // JAPANESE HISTORY // "G" WHIZ // THE WWF (World Wildlife Fund)

DD2 - $1,600 - SHAKESPEARE PLAYS BY QUOTE - "The barge she sat in, like a burnished throne, burned on the water" (Danielle won the table limit of $2,000.)

DD3 - $1,200 - "G" WHIZ - Add "s" to the end of a word meaning pertaining to old age to get this branch of medicine that focuses on the elderly (Danielle added $2,000 to her score of $3,800 vs. $7,100 for Mallory.)

Mallory had a solid lead after round one, then Danielle quickly found both DDs in DJ to close the gap and was able to take command into FJ at $13,400 vs. $9,100 for Mallory and $2,800 for Cherry.

Final Jeopardy!

LIVE MUSIC - These 2 events held 2 1/2 months & 2,500 miles apart in 1999 were the last of one major music happening & the first of another

Only Mallory was correct on FJ, adding $5,000 to win with $14,100. By betting this much, Mallory forced herself to be correct to win, while with a tiny bet she would have won when Danielle missed without having to be correct herself.

Odds and ends

That's before our time: No one figured out the Beatles song that was donated to the fundraising album "No One's Gonna Change Our World" is "Across the Universe".

Solving FJ: Upon seeing the FJ category and thinking about what fits, both parts of the correct response should have come to mind before seeing the clue. Then it was just a matter of putting the geography together to arrive at the correct response.

Correct Qs: DD1 - What is the Philippines? DD2 - What is "Antony and Cleopatra"? DD3 - What is geriatrics? FJ - What are Woodstock and Coachella?
