Here I am with a new recap. Today Damian Henri defends for the first time.
By the way, don’t forget Cori Wilhelm, who’s playing tomorrow, will be answering questions for this blog after her appearance.
Damian Henri
Kristan McMahon
Rohit Dewan (looks like Andy Garcia)
First, I didn’t know the correct response to the tweeted clue in Getting Coffee, but I’m amused that everyone gave the same incorrect response.
I was surprised Rohit’s response of “Wayans” was enough on this clue in Comedians: “‘Homey don’t play that.'” And speaking of Twitter, Larry the Cable Guy tweeted he’d appeared on Jeopardy!, in this clue in the same category: “‘Git-R-Done.'” He lives in Wahoo, Nebraska. Actually I know very little else about him.
At the first break:
Damian 2400 (6 right and one wrong)
Rohit 1000 (4 right and one wrong)
Kristan 200 (3 right and one wrong)
I swept Word Puzzles.
I got this triple-stumper in Getting Coffee, probably because these commercials have aired after Final Jeopardy: “At ‘America’s Diner,’ this place, anytime is a good time for the signature diner roast.” I also got this triple-stumper in the same category, and I have no idea why. I don’t think there’s one around for hundreds of miles: “This convenience store asks you to ‘walk on the wild side’ & try the blueberry coffee.”
Rohit got the Daily Double in the round, in Influential Writing. There was one clue on the board after this, and Mr. Trebek had given the one-minute warning.
Damian 5600 (3 right)
Rohit 2400 (2 right)
Kristan 400 (One right and one wrong)
Rohit wagered 1000 on this clue: “‘A Winter Walk’ & ‘Slavery in Massachusetts’ are essays by this 19th-century American.” Rohit got it right, and the last clue remained hidden.
I was surprised this was a triple-stumper in A Cheesy Category: “The holes in cheese are properly known by this anatomical term.” And I was just as surprised this one was, in That 70s Film: “Not satisfied with a portion of the ‘Kramer vs. Kramer’ script, this actress wrote her own courtroom speech.”
The next clue was a Daily Double, in Born & Died. Rohit found it. He appeared to be looking for it, as of the previous clue.
Damian 10800 (5 right)
Rohit 5000 (One right)
Kristan 2800 (3 right)
Rohit wagered 3000 on this clue: “He was born in Brookline, Massachusetts in 1925 & died in Los Angeles June 6, 1968.” Rohit went, “Who is JF…” then acted like it was too late. He waited a long time before saying the correct response. He followed that up by sweeping The Neutron Dance.
I don’t know if I’d gotten this one in That 70s Film if my parents hadn’t visited this site just a couple of weeks ago: “An aircraft hangar in Alabama was used to create the landing area behind this landmark in ‘Close Encounters.'”
Mr. Trebek gave the less-than-a-minute warning with one category left. Damian found the other Daily Double there, in Independence Days.
Damian 16000 (5 right)
Rohit 17200 (8 right and one wrong)
Kristan 2800
Damian wagered 2000 on this clue, read by Kelly: “Portugal’s 1974 change in government led to the end of an over 500-year colonial involvement in Africa and the independence of several former colonies, including these two.”
Her arm’s covering one of the countries but it shouldn’t matter. To you, that is.
Damian got the correct response. It was the last clue of the round.
The Final Jeopardy category was Children’s Book Series. I felt pretty good about this one, but I shouldn’t have: “The impetus for these books came from a vision the author had ‘of a faun carrying an umbrella & parcels in a snowy wood.'” That was a triple-get? Really? The correct response never crossed my mind. But the real story is the scores: Kristan wagered all but a dollar, Rohit wagered everything, and Damian wagered all but a dollar too. He is your champion again.
My Coryat today was 16800 (21200 without negs, all in the Double Jeopardy round).
