Here are today's contestants for the first game of Jeopardy! Second Chance:
- Jessica Stephens, a statistical research specialist, saw her previous appearance as a Space Camp experience;
- Aaron Gulyas, a community college history instructor, didn't want to see any sports clues; and
- Cindy Zhang, a user experience designer, is a Jeopardy! Honors winner for best signature.
Jeopardy!
LITERARY FIRST LINES // AN IMPRESSIVE VOCABULARY // WORLD FACTS // COMMON BONDS // LYRICALLY YOURS // SKIN CARE FROM A TO Z WITH MICHAEL STRAHAN
DD1 - $1,000 - WORLD FACTS - Much of this tiny country that's surrounded by another is located on Mount Titano (Cindy lost $2,800 on a true DD.)
Scores going into DJ: Cindy $2,000, Aaron $3,000, Jessica $5,400.
Double Jeopardy!
ACTORS GET THEIR ROLES MIXED UP // "IF" AT FIRST... // ANAGRAMS // HERE'S YOUR SCIENCE PRIZE // TRYING TO GET SOME WORKS DONE // BUT I HAVE THIS HISTORIC MEETING
DD2 - $1,600 - "IF" AT FIRST... - The Department of Homeland Security designates Sept. 25 as awareness day for this 6-word reminder to report suspicious activity (Jessica added $2,500 to her leading score of $6,200.)
DD3 - $1,200 - TRYING TO GET SOME WORKS DONE - From Rubens & his workshop, "The Lion Hunt", "The Tiger Hunt" & this Roman goddess "& Her Nymphs on the Hunt" (Aaron dropped $3,000 from his total of $4,200 vs. $12,300 for Jessica.)
Everyone had a chance at a DD, but only Jessica was correct and went on to a runaway at $17,100 vs. $6,800 for Cindy and $2,800 for Aaron.
Final Jeopardy!
FAMOUS ANIMALS - In September 1964 the New York Times announced the passing of this pet, a gift, “used as a symbol of honesty in 1952”
Jessica and Aaron were correct on FJ, with Jessica adding $3,000 to advance with a score of $20,100. Jessica will return later this week to face the winners from the next two games in a two-game contest with an invite to the ToC on the line.
Odds and Ends
Triple Stumper of the day: No one knew the actor who played half of a legendary outlaw duo and later took "to the ice for the Charlestown Chiefs" was Paul Newman.
This day in shilling: Michael Strahan presented a category and not only got in his own plug for his line of skin care products, Ken mentioned it again upon completion of the category.
One more thing: Cindy and Aaron, who finished second and third respectively, took home the standard $2,000 and $1,000 prizes.
Correct Qs: DD1 - What is San Marino? DD2 - What is "If you see something, say something"? DD3 - Who is Diana? FJ - Who was Checkers?
