Jennie Garth will be going from West
Beverly High to Are You Smarter Elementary tonight, but first, we have
unfinished business with our previous celebrity contestant, as Rick Fox
returns to take on the $10,000 question.
As a reminder, helping him out was
Olivia, and Rick is playing for the AIDS Healthcare Foundation.

The bassoon is a
member of what musical family?
a) Woodwind
b) Percussion

Rick has a musical family. Sasha plays
violin and piano. Rick.. doesn't. "Why am I getting winded?"
Eventually, he locks in "brass".
That's... wrong. It was A. Olivia needs to have that one written in
order for continue.
Olivia said... A. Woodwind! SAVED!
Now to the milestone. Francesca gets the
nod for it.
