Here’s today’s Final Jeopardy (in the category State Mottos) for Wednesday, July 13, 2022 (Season 38, Game 218):
This motto is the name of a city in that state & is a famous quote by an ancient Greek from the 3rd century B.C.
(correct response beneath the contestants)
Today’s contestants:
Jin-Soo Huh, an education non-profit employee from Chicago, Illinois
Emily Fiasco, a middle school band director from St. Louis, Missouri
Steve Clarke, a lawyer from Chesapeake, Virginia (2-day total: $38,400)
Andy’s Pregame Thoughts:
I am looking forward to the six-week summer break. One commenter on Twitter said, “the fandom has become bigger than the game itself,” and I agree with that. Maybe the summer break will help cool things off.

Editorially: In protest of how tabloid entertainment papers are constantly mining Twitter to twist people’s words for their anti-Mayim Bialik hit pieces, I will not be live-tweeting mid-game statistics for this week’s games. However, I will post them here on this page for anyone who might still be interested in them. The quality of writing about the show has been brought down significantly by the tabloids; Jeopardy! is a cerebral show, not a reality-show circus, and the coverage of the show needs to reflect that. More writers need to treat the game like Claire McNear has.
On a more personal note: For the past two and a half years, I have often raised money for the MS Society of Canada through their “Gamers vs. MS” program. This July, Gamers vs. MS is running a month-long fundraising campaign called “Boss Battles.” In an attempt to raise $25,000, the Gamers vs. MS team has designed a “fundraising adventure” to defeat eight evil bosses. (Much like a Mario game might have eight bosses to defeat.) You can get more information about the program at https://www.gamersvsms.ca/bossbattles, and if you’d like to donate, you can do so via Tiltify!.
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, including any boosters as recommended. When wearing a mask, please ensure that your mask covers both your nose and your mouth.
Correct response: What is “Eureka!”
More Information About Final Jeopardy:
(The following write-up is original content and is copyright 2022 The Jeopardy! Fan. It may not be copied without linked attribution back to this page.)
“Eureka!” is a quote famously attributed to Archimedes when he realized the principle of displacement in fluid mechanics when he stepped into his bath in Syracuse, and the water level rose. According to legend, he used this new “discovery” to assess the purity of pure gold (versus gold that had been secretly replaced with other materials) using a hydrostatic balance of sorts.
The word “Eureka” became associated with California after the discovery of gold near Sutter’s Mill, northeast of Sacramento, in 1848. Eureka, California, found in Northern California, is also the most populous city named Eureka in the country; the word “Eureka” became the official state motto of California in 1963.

Game Recap:
Jeopardy! Round:
(Categories: Quoting the King James Bible; Making Money; Reel Estate; Welsh Folk; Shores; Horses, Anagrammed)
Steve went straight to the Bible category, and then proceeded to run it. He was also rewarded with the Daily Double at the bottom of the category! (Yes, he bet $2,000 on it.) He dominated the proceedings over Single Jeopardy, though Emily was able to get a bit of a word in edgewise. Jin-Soo struggled, only getting in on the signaling device three times.
Jeopardy at the first break (15 clues):
Steve 9 correct 1 incorrect
Emily 2 correct 1 incorrect
Jin-Soo 1 correct 0 incorrect
After the Jeopardy round:
Steve 16 correct 1 incorrect
Emily 6 correct 1 incorrect
Jin-Soo 2 correct 1 incorrect
Double Jeopardy! Round:
(Categories: Presidential Globetrotting; Plays & Playwriting; Antarctica; Hodgepodge; TV Comedy; Word “L”)
While Jin-Soo’s struggles continued, unfortunately—the rightmost challenger only getting in first twice during Double Jeopardy—Steve and Emily had a very evenly-matched Double Jeopardy! round. Emily had a chance at the lead, in fact, when she picked up the final Daily Double on clue #29; unfortunately, she was unable to get the correct response, and went into Final in second place. Jin-Soo, unfortunately, took a late incorrect response to put him in the red and was unable to play Final Jeopardy. Scores going into Final were Steve at $17,700, Emily at $14,000, and Jin-Soo at -$200.
After Double Jeopardy:
Steve 27 correct 3 incorrect
Emily 15 correct 3 incorrect
Jin-Soo 4 correct 2 incorrect
Total number of unplayed clues this season: 83 (0 today).
In Final, Emily was the only correct player, and she both doubled up and became Jeopardy! champion! She’ll return tomorrow to defend.

Final Jeopardy! wagering suggestions:
(Scores: Steve $17,700 Emily $14,000 Jin-Soo -$200)
Steve: Standard cover bet over Emily is $10,301. (Actual bet: $10,301)
Emily: If Steve covers and is incorrect, he falls to $7,399. Thus, you should make sure you stay above $7,401. Bet anywhere between $3,701 and $6,599. (Actual bet: $14,000)
