Andy here with another recap as Julia Collins tries for win #17!
Before I start, I should give a shout-out to Martingrove CI, who this past weekend, won the 2014 national championship at the Canadian high school quiz Reach For The Top! Congratulations!
Today’s contestants:
Dylan’s from Omaha; I know who Jeanie will be cheering for!
J! round categories:
BARBARA WALTERS
MOVIES INSPIRED BY LITERATURE
LUCKY 13
THOSE ARE MY INITIALS, TOO
THE PENTAGON
“STR”8 TALK
INITIALS went quite well for Julia…she had $3,000 by the end of it! In the midst of a Blue Jays-like hot streak on the buzzer for her, MOVIES INSPIRED BY LITERATURE $400 had the opening Daily Double! Scores were:
Julia $3,200
Dylan $0
Jeanne $-600
Julia went for all $3,200. Her clue: 2010’s “Easy A” re-imagined this decidedly unfunny 1850 novel as a comedy. About two seconds after the clue finished, Julia’s score sat at $6,400.
Dylan did go 2/5 in LUCKY 13. The opening segment was all Julia, though.
Scores at the first break:
Julia $10,200
Dylan $1,000
Jeanne $0
Another “How did you meet your spouse” story…Dylan met his wife because she was a teller at his bank!
Julia had so much anxiety regarding the “awkward interview” phase of the program that she almost didn’t want to go on Jeopardy! because of it!
Coming out of the break, our challengers did a little bit better! I did not know the fact mentioned in this clue (BARBARA WALTERS $800: After a rare 1977 interview with this leader of a communist island, he made Barbara grilled cheese sandwiches).
After 30, scores were:
Julia $13,600
Dylan $1,400
Jeanne $1,200
DJ! round categories:
PLASTIC
VISA
MASTER CARD
AMERICAN EXPRESS
DISCOVER
DINERS CLUB
VISA $1,600 had the first Daily Double; Dylan got to play it, with scores at:
Julia $13,200
Dylan $3,400
Jeanne -$400
Dylan went for $3,400. His clue: A visa to Saudi Arabia for this purpose only covers travel in the vicinities of Mecca, Medina, & Jiddah. Dylan could only come up with “religious purposes” (his lack of phrasing aside) and he fell to $0. Props for going for it, though!
Julia woke up after this and then found the final Daily Double, under DISCOVER $1,200. Scores:
Julia $14,400
Dylan $0
Jeanne $-400
Julia bet $4,000. Her clue: The first fossil recognized as a human ancestor was a skull found near Dusseldorf belonging to this prehistoric man. Julia was really unsure of herself…but she came up with the correct response! Her score went to $18,400!
Dylan managed to get out of the red, also keeping Julia from running AMERICAN EXPRESS; the minute-to-go signal came with 7 clues to play! We did not get time to play the final $2,000 clue in PLASTIC, but the scores were:
Julia $28,400
Dylan $4,400
Jeanne -$2,000
I’m going to invoke Ken Jennings here, because frankly, I haven’t seen such consistent domination since Mr. Jennings!
FJ! category: 20th CENTURY PLAY TITLES
FJ! clue: This play’s title comes from the name of the Greek king said to have carved a statue of a woman & fallen in love with it
Dylan 4400 – 10 = 4390
Julia 28400 + 6600 = 35000
We’ll be back tomorrow for game #18!
