Semifinals: Koolik/Lerner/Deabill
July 30
Last April, 15 of America's best and brightest teenagers descended upon Sony Pictures Studios in LA to compete in the Jeopardy! Teen Tournament. Now only 9 remain in the hunt for one of three spots in the $75,000. But there are no second chances. It's win or go home.

Second place gets $25,000. Third gets $15,000. Semifinalists who make it to week 2 will receive $10,000. All money will be determined, as always, by how far the players go in the tournament.

The winner of this match gets Jeff Xie and Cooper Lair.

Daily Double: $800 In the Dictionary. Sam is in the middle with $3800 to Alan's $4200. He fronts EVERYTHING on this: the picture seen here might accompany the entry for this word found under the letter "P"; "What is.. parade?" And just like that, Sam implodes. It was "pyrotechnics".

Daily Double #2: $1600 Creative Writers. Kat has $13,000 to Alan's $17,600. She bets $2600 on this: he created Edmond Dantes but based him on falsely accused Francois Picaud. Kat blanks on Alexandre Dumas, leaving her with $10,400.
