Here’s today’s Final Jeopardy (in the category Priceless Objects) for Thursday, November 11, 2021 (Season 38, Game 44):
It dates back to the “French Blue”, which was set in gold & suspended from a neck ribbon when Louis XIV wore it on ceremonial occasions
(correct response beneath the contestants)
Today’s contestants:
Tucker Shope, a Ph.D student from Starkville, Mississippi
Willa Perlmutter, a lawyer from Portland, Oregon
Andrew He, a software developer from San Francisco, California (1-day total: $52,001)
Andy’s Pregame Thoughts: Yesterday’s game saw Andrew He break a record that not even James Holzhauer or Ken Jennings could break: the largest ever first victory on the show, at $52,001—breaking Myron Meyer’s record of $50,000 set back in 2002. The most recent Tournament of Champions winner, Sam Kavanaugh, mentioned on Twitter yesterday that Andrew had helped Sam prepare for the Tournament. This certainly explains why Andrew is such a strong player in his own right! Andrew’s first-game correct response numbers weren’t quite as eye-popping as Matt Amodio’s were a few months ago, but Andrew is certainly a strong enough player that I’d be shocked if he didn’t win a second game today.
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 Hope Diamond?
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.)
Jean Baptiste Tavernier sold what is now known as the Hope Diamond in 1668 to King Louis XIV; it lasted in French hands for over a century before being looted in the French Revolution. From there, it ended up in the hands of King George IV, who sold it in 1830 to pay off massive debts. About a decade later, it was recorded as being in the hands of the Hope family, from where it gets its current name. The diamond was donated to the Smithsonian Institution in 1958. Trace amounts of boron in the stone give the diamond its blue color. The stone currently is about 45 carats (the original stone in 1668 was 112 3/16 carats).

Today’s interviews:
Tucker has been hosting trivia on Zoom for his family for 15 months.
Willa recently went river rafting on the Snake River for the first time.
Andrew recently planned a Valentine’s Day meal of Oklahoma’s official state meal.
Andy’s Thoughts:
- Andrew becomes the 24th player to win at least $70,000 over their first 2 wins on the show; $72,301 is the 15th-best 2-day total.
- $18,600 is tied for the 7th-highest score of all time after the Jeopardy! round (tied with Matt Amodio on September 21 and October 4). James Holzhauer holds the top 6 scores in this category.
- Being that Andrew is 3-for-5 on Daily Doubles thus far, I think it’s a good idea for him to be more conservative in his bets on Daily Doubles; this takes a bit of variance out of play.
