Okay, that’s harsher than I really mean…
Padraic Scanlan took down Andrew Moore yesterday. Will that be his only victory?
Padraic waved again today as he was introduced. And Mr. Trebek mentioned, like Enos in yesterday’s post, that he’d referred to Padraic as the host of the show.
Gabe Gales led at the first break with 4000. He’d gotten 8 right and one wrong. Maggie Millikan had 3600 after getting 5 right and one wrong. Padraic had gotten 2 right and had 800.
I got this triple-stumper in On the Tube: “Monica Potter is married to Peter Krause on this NBC show.”
Padraic soon found the Daily Double in You Must Be President to Win. He’d gotten the one right since the break and had 1600. Maggie had 5200 after getting 2 right, and Gabe still had 4000. Padraic wagered 1400 (why not all of it?) on this easy clue: “The International Radio & Television Society gave him its gold medal as ‘America’s Most Accomplished Communicator.'” Padraic got it right.
I like the contestants’ new style of selecting clues: from the bottom up instead of the top down. I hope they keep it up.
Padraic and Gabe each got 3 right between the Daily Double and the end of the round. Padraic had 3800 and Gabe had 5200 then. Maggie got 4 right and had 7800.
Look at the above scores, because the first clue of Double Jeopardy was the Daily Double. It was Padraic’s, as you can see, and he wagered 3000 on this clue in World Literature: “The last chapter of this 16th century work is ‘an exhortation to liberate Italy from the Barbarians.” He and I got it right.
Is it just me or did Maggie and Gabe look like they’d rather be somewhere else in Double Jeopardy, with their sighs and glazed eyes? That was disappointing.
Also disappointing: I don’t think Maggie’s response of “mental” should’ve ultimately been accepted on this clue in Health Care: “It’s the ‘MH’ in 1996’s MHPA, a law that mandates insurance for it at the same level as other health coverage.” Mr. Trebek gave her all the allotted time to reread the clue and make it right, but she just said “mental” again. The rationale for accepting it was that “health” was in the clue. Then she was given control of the board, even though Gabe picked up the correct response when she was ruled wrong at first. (The next clue was a triple-stumper.)
There were 7 clues left (5 400s and 2 800s) when Mr. Trebek gave the minute-to-go warning. One of them must be the other Daily Double, then! Padraic went for a 400 clue anyway. Maggie found the Daily Double eventually, in Statues. She looked thrilled. Not. The contestants were evenly matched: Gabe and Maggie each got 7 right and one wrong, and had 13600 and 15400 respectively. Padraic had gotten 8 right and one wrong, and had 15200. Maggie wagered 3000 on this clue: “Baruch Spinoza stands in front of this world capital’s city hall.” I don’t know what this refers to, but Maggie got it easily.
I’d have liked to have seen all the clues in Health Care, but one was left covered, along with one each in Slanguage and The Musicals of Rodgers & Hammerstein. Gabe got the one clue seen after Maggie’s Daily Double, and ended the round with 14000. Padraic then still had 15200 and Maggie had 18400.
The Final Jeopardy category was Movies & the Bible. This was the clue: “In this crime drama, a 1994 Oscar nominee for Best Picture, a character misquotes Ezekial 25:17 twice.” I got this right! So did Gabe, while Padraic and Maggie missed it. I thought Padraic’s guess of “Seven” wasn’t that bad. Anyway Gabe added 13950, Padraic lost 10000, and Maggie lost 12001. So Gabe’s got himself a big first win. And he smiled!
After Gabe’s silly interview today (just what he likes to do for fun?), I’ll be interested in what he’s got to say tomorrow.
My Coryat was better than yesterday’s, and in fact better than it’s been in a while: 27800 (31400 without negs).
