Here’s today’s Final Jeopardy (in the category British Royalty) for Thursday, March 6, 2025 (Season 41, Game 129):

In the 12th c. after walking barefoot, this man stripped down & allowed himself to be flogged by dozens of monks

(correct response beneath the contestants)

Today’s Jeopardy! contestants:

Juveria Zaheer, a psychiatrist from Whitby, Ontario, Canada (0 wins)

Roger Craig, an applied scientist from Arlington, Virginia (0 wins)

Matt Amodio, a quantitative researcher from New York, New York (1 win)

Andy’s Pregame Thoughts:

After a very dominant performance on the buzzer yesterday from Matt Amodio—there was a stretch in Double Jeopardy where he responded to ten consecutive clues—he is a win away from a return to Jeopardy! Masters, while both Roger Craig and Juveria Zaheer may need to make some adjustments in order to get a victory in against Matt. The Unified Prediction Model thinks that there’s a 36% chance of today being the last tournament game this season, which would then give us—with the exception of the yearly six-week break in August and early September for reruns—uninterrupted regular play until about the end of the calendar year.

Correct response: Who is Henry II?

More information about Final Jeopardy:

(The following write-up is original content and is copyright 2025 The Jeopardy! Fan. It may not be copied without linked attribution back to this page.)

Three years after the murder of Thomas Becket in Canterbury Cathedral, Henry II was facing difficult times in England; he had been betrayed by many of his barons as well as his two sons and his wife (Eleanor of Aquitaine) as Scotland was invading from the north. It was at this time that he believed that England had been “haunted” by the ghost of Thomas—murdered by Henry’s knights who believed it to be at the behest of Henry—and that Henry must do penance to right the wrong. Thus, after arriving in Canterbury, he walked barefoot from outside the city to the cathedral, bloodying his feet, and permitted himself to be flogged by dozens of monks as penance, receiving nearly 300 lashings. Having sought and received the forgiveness of God, things turned back England and Henry’s way, as the invasion was put down and he regained control of his barons.

Much like many of the Final Jeopardy clues this tournament, I think this is a clue of reasonable difficulty for this level of play; I could see this clue playing 3-for-3 in-studio, but that’s only because we have three incredibly bright players.

Andy’s Thoughts:

• Why do second and third get the same amount? The Pop Culture Jeopardy final that aired yesterday gives us a very compelling reason as to why.

• Today’s box score will be linked to when posted by the show.

Final Jeopardy! wagering suggestions:

(Scores: Juveria $16,000 Matt $13,600 Roger $9,400)

Matt: Cover bet over Roger is $5,201. However, if you do want to play games with Roger here—and you do have a game in hand to try this—if you cover, the most he can bet is $1,000. Thus, you could try betting between $2 and $3,198 to defend against that. (Actual bet: $2,401)

Roger: I would hope for cover bets from Matt and Juveria here, along with a Triple Stumper, and bet $1,000 or less. (Actual bet: $4,201)

Juveria: Cover bet over Matt is $11,201. (Actual bet: $11,201)

Current Jeopardy Masters odds:

Victoria Groce +340
James Holzhauer +360
Yogesh Raut +400
Matt Amodio +490
Neilesh Vinjamuri +690
Producer’s Pick +740
