Jeopardy!
INSIDE MISSOULA // OCCUPATIONS // TV THEME SONGS // NEW TO THE OED // MEET THE PRESS // THEY OVERLAPPED?!
DD1 - $800 - NEW TO THE OED - 2026 feels a little late for this slogan meaning "Ireland forever!" to get included, but, well, Oxford's in England after all (Amy lost $1,000.)
Scores at first break: Anthony $3,000, Amy -$400, Jim $2,000.
Scores entering DJ: Anthony $5,600, Amy $1,200, Jim $2,400.
Double Jeopardy!
WORLD WAR II // DUAL ROLES: WHO PLAYED 'EM? // SCIENTISTS // A PYRAMID SCHEME // PLAYWRIGHTS' WRONGS // FROM THE SPANISH
DD2 - $1,200 - SCIENTISTS - Despite not getting the same credit for her role in discovering the structure of DNA, she & Francis Crick became good friends (Jim dropped $2,600 down to $1,000 vs. $12,400 for Anthony.)
DD3 - $1,200 - PLAYWRIGHTS' WRONGS - August Strindberg said this word for one who hates half the human race is "a term of abuse for those who say what everybody thinks" (Late in the round with a comfortable lead, Anthony lost $3,000 down to $9,800.)
All three DDs were missed, Anthony led at every break and his opponents never got rolling, so he was home free into FJ at $11,000 vs. $2,600 for Jim and $2,000 for Amy.
Final Jeopardy!

Final scores: Anthony $5,201, Amy $1, Jim $1,199.
Correct Qs: DD1 - What is Erin go Bragh? DD2 - Who was Franklin? DD3 - What is misogynist? FJ - What is the Old Man of the Mountain?
