One of the 2 Make Good weeks of Season 37 is here - it's Day 1 of UK Getaway Week!

The $1,000 Tossup is WHAT ARE YOU DOING? Larisa Babbock from Kent, WA is WEARING THE CROWN for $1,000. She is an executive assistant and is one of 16 children! Angela Wheat from Louisville, KY sings her in church and is very active in it. Ash Colwell from Charlotte, NC sells things online and loves alternative rock.

The $2,000 Tossup is PLACE. Ash has $2,000 with BUSTLING TRAIN STATION. We start the next round, but we add this Collette Vacation to the wheel! It's a tour of Scotland worth $9,898! Ash starts SHOW BIZ and picks up the Scotland tour with a $500 N. He dominates and solves DRAMATIC PERFORMANCE for $2,550 and the trip! He has $14,448 in cash and prizes! We move on to...

The Consumer Cellular mystery round which is started by Larisa. It's our crossword round. The clue is A SLICE OF ______. There are four words that fit the clue. She misses a vowel - O. Angela solves PINEAPPLE PIZZA CAKE LIFE for $4,550. Every one has some money! We move on to...

The Prize Puzzle/Express Wedge Round which is started by Angela as well! It's THINGS. She misses. Ash picks up the MDW with 2 R's and solves ARTISTIC MASTERPIECES for $2,200, the MDW and a trip to see some of those in ITALY! It's a Tuscan Tour from Collette worth $8,998! He has $25,646 and the MDW!

The Triple Tossup category is PERSON. Ash has $2,000 with MUTUAL ACQUAINTANCE. Ash misses and Angela has $2,000 with FAITHFUL COMPANION. Larisa starts the next round with her solve of TRUSTED COLLEAGUE. She has $3,000. Angela has $6,550. Ash has a big lead with $27,646 in cash and prizes along with his tours of Scotland and Tuscany! He also has the MDW! Larisa starts PHRASE and we go right into a FINAL SPIN worth $1,650 a letter. Ash solves ALL'S WELL THAT ENDS WELL right at the buzzer and wins with $3,300. They are going to double check the tape, but we think he has $30,946 in cash and prizes along with the MDW! That includes his tours of Tuscany and Scotland! Angela leaves with $6,550. Larisa leaves with $3,000!

The pre-bonus round total is $40,496! For the 12th time this season, we remove the $100,000 wedge and replace it with the $1,000,000 wedge. If Ash lands on the right wedge and solves the puzzle, he will be the first male, 4th winner overall and first since Sarah Manchester in 2014! It's been way too long! Is this the night? It might depend on his choice of category. He chooses LIVING THINGS over THINGS and PHRASE. And before we start - his final spin solve was deemed correct.

Ash lands on the I in SPIN Wedge. With the RSTLNE and his choices of C H P O we have:

_ O L _ E S / _ N _
_ _ C _ _ L S

Ash immediately solves WOLVES AND JACKALS. Is Ash a Millionaire? NO but he can avoid those animals while driving his 2020 Mercedes GLB250 SUV worth $41,565! That means Ash leaves with one of the biggest totals of the season with $72,511 in cash and prizes including his car and two trips! BTW, Ash was not even close as the $1,000,000 was hiding in the * wedge.

Oh, if you want to win $1,000 and $1,000 for a local food bank during this pandemic - take WOLVES AND JACKALS to wheeloffortune.com and enter to win!

As a reminder, since this is a Jeopardy! tournament, there will be nine semifinalists - five game winners and the four wild cards. Anyone who does not make the semis will receive $10,000.

JEOPARDY! ROUND: Latin American History, Water Transport, Wax Museums, Autoimmune Disorders, Let Them Eat Cake; So You're the "Smart" One, Eh?

Bob Harris drew first position with $200 So You're the "Smart" One, Eh?. At the TV timeout, he leads with $5800 to $1800 for Frank and $1000 for Rachael.

Rachael finds the Daily Double under $800 Wax Museums. She wagers $1000 on this: appropriately, Potter's Wax Museum in this Florida city bills itself as the oldest in the US. "What is St. Augustine?" RIGHT for $5000! She ends with $600 to $7000 for Bob. Frank, with $4800, will start...

DOUBLE JEOPARDY!: The New York Times Arts & Leisure, From the Greek, The Renaissance, Middle Names, Hope You Learned Your African Capitals, Places to Put Your Big Winnings

... with $1200 The Renaissance. Frank finds the first Daily Double under $1200 Middle Names. He wagers $4000 on this: this middle name of Supreme Court Justice William Douglas reminds us of an early aviator. "What is Orville?" RIGHT for $17,600! Rachael finds the other under $1200 New York Times Arts & Leisure. She fronts $1500 on this: the Met's 2002 production of this opera "calls for 346 people onstage along with a horse (Napoleon's)". "What is 'Aida'?" No, it was "War and Peace", dropping her to $6500. She ends up with $10,100 to $15,800, but they're both put to shame by Frank's $19,200.

FINAL JEOPARDY! in "Espionage": he was born in India; his father worked for the British government & he was nicknamed for a Kipling character. Correct response: who was Kim Philby?

Rachael and Bob are right... but Frank misses, so Bob Harris moves on with $20,000.
