Here’s today’s Final Jeopardy (in the category Say It In Italian) for Wednesday, May 11, 2022 (Season 38, Game 173):
It’s an Italian word for “mercy”, but also the name of a movie character who kills Stracci & Carlo
(correct response beneath the contestants)
Today’s contestants:
Daniel Nguyen, a high school math teacher from San Jose, California
Micaela Tuttle, a wine import manager from Nashville, Tennessee
Mallory Kass, a children’s book editor from Brooklyn, New York (1-day total: $14,100)
Andy’s Pregame Thoughts: “The 100” author Mallory Kass picked up a victory in yesterday’s game—and if the preview at the end of yesterday’s game is any indication, Mallory has gone fashion-forward today in a number that the communnity’s resident fashion reviewer, Lilly Nelson, will be absolutely in love with. If you missed it at the end of yesterday’s game, you’re going to need to watch today in order to see it! Your challengers today are Micaela Tuttle and Daniel Nguyen.
Meanwhile, the New York Times Clue of the Day is still not operational on the Jeopardy! website; the physical copy of the paper does still have the clue, though.
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 Clemenza?
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.)
Peter Clemenza, portrayed by Richard Castellano, was a major caporegime in the Corleone crime family in Francis Ford Coppola’s 1972 film The Godfather. Clemenza was famous for the line “Leave the gun; take the cannoli.” in the film. In Italian, the word “clemenza” can mean “clemency” or “mercy”. (A friendly reminder that comments made without having read the post in question is out of order. Also note that the clue says “an Italian word”—implying multiple—and not “the Italian word”—implying only one. Semantics, yes, but very important semantics.)

Game Recap:
Jeopardy! Round categories: From Queens; Geometry Class; American History; “4”!; This & That; More Than One Meaning
Mallory found the Daily Double immediately; unfortunately for her, she dropped $1,000 on it. Daniel got off to a strong start, though, picking up 8 correct before the opening break. Micaela and Mallory did pull back a little bit before the end of Single Jeopardy, though.
Double Jeopardy! Round categories: Beastly Art; Timely Talk; Sci-Fi Trilogies; Brand Names; Going Global; What’s That Song Called?
My favourite category was “What’s That Song Called?”; however, I thought Mayim got carried away on the $400 clue, giving a response that would technically be correct per the show’s rules, but she should have just given the title of it. (She gave lyrics surrounding the title, which is correct, but will cause confusion among viewers and potentially avoidable viewer feedback.) Meanwhile, our challengers split the Daily Doubles, with Micaela picking up $2,000 and Daniel $3,000. The scores going into Final were Daniel at $13,000, Micaela at $9,400, and Mallory at $6,200.
Final Jeopardy! today was a Triple Stumper, and that works in Daniel’s favor because of the scores—he’ll be back tomorrow to defend!

Micaela ostensibly gets paid to drink wine.
Mallory got to cameo in a scene with Steve Buscemi.
Andy’s Thoughts:
- In my opinion, this was the sort of Final Jeopardy! clue that would play easier for many viewers at home than it would for players in-studio.
- Link to the box score: May 11, 2022 Box Score
Final Jeopardy! betting suggestions:
(Daniel $13,000, Micaela $9,400, Mallory $6,200)
Mallory: Assuming Daniel bets to cover, you can’t win unless you get Final and bet at least $1,000. You should go all-in in order to maximize potential winnings (and to force Micaela to cover in Stratton’s Dilemma.)
Micaela: You’re in Stratton’s Dilemma; you can’t both win a Double Stumper with Daniel and bet to cover Mallory. Because Mallory has occasion to go all-in (as she can’t win unless she is correct and makes a bet), it’s probably better to go all-in to maximize your potential winnings today. Your cover bet over Mallory is $3,001; your maximum bet if you do choose to go small should be $2,199.
Daniel: Standard cover bet today is $5,801.
