Jeopardy!
BIRTHSTONES // ART & ARTISTS // BUGGING OUT // FIX THE PROVERB // MEMORY // CATS' SONGS
DD1 - $600 - BIRTHSTONES - An '80s song rhymed, "Take your baby by the wrist, & in her mouth" this February stone (Jen lost $600.)

Double Jeopardy!
U.S. POLITICAL HISTORY // FROM THE TV SHOW'S THEME SONG // LITERARY EPITAPHS // DOES ANYBODY HAVE ANY CHANGE? // U.K. CITIES // TOUGH VOCAB
DD2 - $1,200 - DOES ANYBODY HAVE ANY CHANGE? - On her journey "across Italy, India & Indonesia", she writes, "One must always be prepared for... endless waves of transformation" (Chris dropped $1,000 from his score of $8,200 vs $7,400 for Fr. Steve.)
DD3 - $1,200 - U.K. CITIES - It's where you can visit , the Ulster Museum & nearby Botanic Gardens (Fr. Steve lost $4,000 from his total of $9,000 vs. $7,200 for Chris.)
Both Chris and Fr. Steve missed a DD in DJ, which helped Jen rally from last to first heading into FJ at $9.800 vs. $9,200 for Chris and $5,400 for Fr. Steve.
Final Jeopardy!
NEW YORK MOVIES - Frank Sinatra got upset that a photo of him caught fire in a Brooklyn pizzeria in this film
Jen and Chris were correct on FJ. Jen only bet $4,000, but Chris went with an even smaller wager of $1,601, so Jen came out on top with $13,800.
Final scores: Chris $10,801, Jen $13,800, Fr. Steve $99.
TV troubles: In the category about naming the TV show from its theme song lyrics, the players missed all three about current streaming/cable shows, while getting both about old broadcast network shows. It must have really broken the Jeopardy! writers' hearts that they didn't know the "Ted Lasso" theme.
Correct Qs: DD1 - What is amethyst? DD2 - Who is Elizabeth Gilbert? DD3 - What is Belfast? FJ - What is "Do the Right Thing"?
