Can any put the
championship run of Bruce Lin to a screeching halt?
Bruce starts with $200
But Fear Itself. At the TV time out, Matt leads in a
dead heat, $2400 to Bruce's $2200. Inie has $1200.
Matt finds the Daily
Double under $800 You Have Nothing to Fear. He bets
$1500 on this: in Dean Koontz books, this 240-year-old
doctor is alive today & masquerading as biotech tycoon
Victor Helios. "Who is Faust?" Nope, it's Dr.
Frankenstein, leaving him with $2300. He jumps up to
$2700. Bruce leads $5000, while Inie with $2000 starts
Double Jeopardy!...
... with $400 Renaissance
Painters. Matt finds the first Daily Double under $1600
Geographic Phrases. He bets $2500 on this: it's the cape
referred to in the name of the Cape buffalo. "What is
Cape Horn?" Nope, it was the Cape of Good Hope, leaving
him with $2600. Last clue, $2000 Names of the '70s, goes
to Inie, as she bets $1800 on the man who, on November
22, 1975, stepped onto a balcony at the Royal Palace as
a crowd roared, "Viva el rey!". "Who is Juan Carlos?"
Right for $5400, where she ends. Bruce is in the lead
with $10,600, while Matt has $4600.
Final Jeopardy! in "Presidential Quotations":
he announced to the American public, "The force from
which the sun draws its power has been loosed...".
Correct question: Who was Harry S Truman?
Bruce's fatal flaw...
ignoring the Rayburn rule: "Go with your gut." He
crosses out Truman, handing the game to Inie, who wins
$10,800. Bruce leaves with $56,599. |

¿Qué
Dice La Gente? by Chico Alexander, GSNN
Air time: 7p ET/6p CT on Telefutura
Host: Marco Antonio Regil |
|
|
Delgado
(Elisa, Simon, German, Ei-Ling, Emperatriz) |
|
Gonzalez (Julio, Odalys, Joanet, Dismey, Hector) |
The Delgados only have 18
after three rounds to the Gonzalez's 134, but that's not
going to stop them from giving it another go in the
Double Round. After naming three famous cartoon mice
(Mickey, Jerry and Speedy Gonzalez), the Delgados are
back in it with 200. The other mouse, by the way, was
Raton Vaquero.
Triple Round: the most popular
school subject. Emperatriz fires with #1, math. English is #2...
Spanish is... not on the board. PE is, though, as the Gonzalez
win, 377-134.
Dismey & Julio go for el Dinero
Rápido first. Dismey gets 126. Julio gets... the rest. They've got
$5000 and another game to play.
|
Milano (Alvaro,
Elis, Josie, Rafael, Raquel); $6000; two days |
|
Gonzalez (Julio, Odalys, Joanet, Dismey, Hector);
$5000 |
After three, the champs
lead, 144-55. The doubler that could decide it: if there
were a pharmacy only for men, what would they sell a lot
of (4)? That's Rafael. "Condones." Let's see... what he
said. It's #1. That's condoms, by the way. The champs
also get razors and Viagra (or as Marco Antonio put it,
"that little pill that makes you rise"). The Gonzalez
try to steal with foot medicine... Not there! Milanos
win it, 310-55.
Let's bring out that basket again,
as Elis and Raquel try to make another $5000 (or more). Raquel
takes... "Buena suerte." And they're going to need it, because Dinero
Rápido is a hard nut to crack.
Raquel gets 101 for her team, while
Elis gets... only up to 173. That gives them $6500 for four games.
Tomorrow's their last.
