DD2 - $1,200 – PLEAS – After 62 mos. in prison, Wikileaks’ Julian Assange pled guilty and was sentenced to 62 mos., in prison, aka these two words (Dave dropped $2,500 from his score of $8,400.)

Final Jeopardy!
U.S. PRESIDENTIAL ELECTIONS – The worst showing by an incumbent candidate in an election was when this man came in third with just 8 electoral votes

Final scores: Delaney $1,600, Cindy $23,201, Dave $700.
Triple Stumper of the day: No one guessed the play “The Colleen Bawn” is set in Ireland.
Ken’s Korner: After INTERNET CELEBRITIES, the host said, “If you didn’t know who those were, ask your kids.” Well Ken, I don’t have kids, but if I did I’d hope they wouldn’t waste their time with that nonsense the way the show just wasted our time with that category.
Correct Qs: DD1 – Who was Vlad the Impaler? DD2 – What is time served? DD3 – Who was Spartacus? FJ – Who was Taft?
