Semifinals: Cooper/Greenberg/Sarda
February 8

The last five games saw teenagers from all across the country square off in a battle royale in the grand tradition of their gladiatorial forbearers to see who would emerge triumphant in the great quiz show wars of the 21st century. Now nine remain in the hunt for the coveted trophy and $75,000.

Second place gets $25,000. Third gets $15,000. Semifinalists who make it to this week will receive a guarantee of $10,000. All tournament participants will receive the all new edition of Classroom Jeopardy! for their schools. All money will be determined, as always, by how far the players go in the tournament.

This is week 2 of the standard two-week affair, meaning that the five game winners and the four wild-cards will meet to compete for a spot in the two-day final. Basically, it's win or go home.

After last night's historic loss, Barrett Block is STILL in the wings. Winner of this game gets him and a semifinal wild card challenger...

Final Jeopardy! category: US GOVERNMENT

 

RECENTLY IN THE NEWS, THIS AGENCY TRACES ITS ORIGINS TO AN 1803 ACT HELPING PORTSMOUTH, NH AFTER A FIRE

 

Correct response: what is FEMA?

Leonard's response: what is FEMA? CORRECT. Wager: $15,000. Total: $30,200.
Nilai's response: what is FEMA? CORRECT. Wager: $14,200. Total: $30,400.
Emily's response: what is FEMA? CORRECT. Wager: $6000. Total: $24,400.

FINALIST: Nilai Sarda

And the final decides it again. Nilai knows what he has to do and does it. Emily... she knew the facts, but didn't know the game. As a result, she neither has the title for today nor the money needed to come back next week. That honor goes to Leonard.
