Here’s today’s Final Jeopardy (in the category History of the 19-Teens) for Friday, September 24, 2021 (Season 38, Game 10):
Saying he ignored warnings of enemy vessels, the British Admiralty sought to blame William Turner, this ship’s last captain in 1915
(correct response beneath the contestants)
Today’s contestants:
Rebecca Fox, an administrative assistant from Pasadena, California
Troy Pozirekides, a written communications specialist from Santa Monica, California
Matt Amodio, a Ph.D student from New Haven, Connecticut (27-day total: $955,201)
Andy’s Pregame Thoughts: Matt Amodio comes into today needing $44,799 to surpass the $1 million mark. I’d be surprised if he got there today; this seems to have been a more tiring week for him. Friday is also Matt’s weakest day of the week.
PSA: The best way to keep COVID-19 at bay (and keep Jeopardy! producing new episodes) is for everybody to get their vaccinations as soon as they are able to. When wearing a mask, ensure that your mask covers both your nose and your mouth.

Correct response: What is the (RMS) Lusitania?
More information about Final Jeopardy: (The following write-up is original content and is copyright 2021 The Jeopardy! Fan. It may not be copied without linked attribution back to this page.)
The Cunard ship RMS Lusitania was travelling from New York to England when it was sunk by a German U-boat off the coast of Ireland. Knowing that merchant ships had been sunk in the area, the Admiralty had warned captain William Turner to take an unpredictable course; however, Turner ignored the advice and was sunk on May 7, 1915. Nearly 1,200 people drowned. Turner, incredibly, did not go down with the ship. Moreover, Turner helmed the SS Ivernia which was also sunk by a U-Boat in 1917 (Turner did not go down with the Ivernia either.)

Andy’s Thoughts:
- Mayim clearly explained why the judges accepted Troy’s misspelling of Lusitania. (the “ui” can be pronounced like in “cruise”.)
