DD2 - $1,200 - ANCIENT NAMES - His "sayings" begin: "The master said, to learn and then do, is not that a pleasure?" (Drew lost $3,000 from his total of $8,600 vs. $3,800 for Cat.)

Final Jeopardy!

NOTABLE AMERICAN WOMEN - In her autobiography she tells of a rather "singular coincidence," that one of her Swiss ancestors was a teacher of the deaf

Cat and Andrew were correct on FJ. Cat nearly doubled up to win with $11,500. 

Note that if Drew had been correct on DD1 and the rest of the game played out the same way, he would have finished DJ with exactly twice of Cat's score, possibly setting up another tiebreaker.

Final scores: Drew $1,201, Andrew $1,200, Cat $11,500.

Triple Stumper of the day: The show got off to a very rough start as on the opening clue, the players guessed "Cape of Good Horn", "Cape of Horn" and "Cape Cod", while the correct response was the cape on the travel path of the Pequod, "Cape of Good Hope".

Movie miscues: No one could come up with famous film villains Travis Bickle ("Taxi Driver"), Joan Crawford ("Mommy Dearest"), or the Wicked Witch of the West ("The Wizard of Oz").

Correct Qs: DD1 - What is title track? DD2 - Who was Confucius? DD3 - What is Louisiana? FJ - Who was Helen Keller?
