JEOPARDY! ROUND: 1876, Homonyms, Internet Businesses, Geography, A Boring Category, We Need New Yogi Bears

Josh starts with $400 1876. At the TV timeout, the champ leads wiht $3600 to $2400 for Grace. Darwin has $400.

Out of the break, Josh finds the DAily Double under $1000 Geography. He bets $2400 on this:
- This pair of "larger" & "smaller" islands are in a group about 100 miles off the east coast of Spain
"What are... the Balearics?" No, it was Mallorca or Minorca, leaving him with $2400. He recovers to $2200 to $5800. Darwin on zero will get the first pick in..

DOUBLE JEOPARDY!: Poetry, TV Show Episode Titles, American Nicknames, Parts of the Oceans, 3 of the Same Consonants; Composers, Painters & Scientists.

Darwin is right, but wagers nothing. Josh is right to win another $19,605, giving him $66,405 for three!

Previously on LEGO MASTERS 2: LEGO HARDER, the remaining eight teams had a wicked balancing act on their hands, building from a single long brick hanging from the ceiling.  It was Mark & Steven (The Ringers) who won the day and the Golden Brick to promise them immunity from elimination...and it was Randall & Syreeta (Hip Hip LEGO Artists) who came crashing down and had to leave.

The teams enter LEGO Masters Central to see Will next to a Lamborghini...that is, a SCALE "Lambo" made of LEGO.  He tells them that their FIRST challenge (yes, there's more than one this week) is to build a replica of it...from MEMORY (since Will "accidentally" wrecked it), using the same pieces used to make the original.  The one who gets closest to the build in four hours gets an advantage in the NEXT challenge.

Aaaaaand they're OFF to get their bricks on!  Brickmasters Jamie & Amy admit they're giving them about one-fourth the time it would usually take to make this kind of memory build...but, hey, that's what the show's all about, right?  Some teams like Zack & Wayne (Sushi Bros) have an advantage as Wayne has DRIVEN Lanmbos before.  Caleb & Jacob (Twin Bricks) focus on details while Dave & Richard (The NYCHI Connection) go with their gut about how it should look.  Lauren & Bryan (Brick Lagunas) REALLY wanna nail this to get whatever advantage they can get.  Jamie says that Jen & Susan (Ute Moms) have the shape a bit off as Lambos are more angular.  And Will notices that Philip & Maria (16 Years a Couple) has their model a bit higher off the ground that it should be.  Michele & Natalie (DIY Moms) are doing a decent job for knowing nothing about cars.

Time's up and bricks are put down.  The models are brought together...and they are shown an ACTUAL-SIZED Lamborghini made of LEGOs!  The Brickmasters deliberate and the winner is...Caleb & Jacob!

Now, it's time for the REAL challenge: DEMOLITION DERBY!  The teams are now given six hours to build a remote-controlled car out of LEGOs...which will then be pitted against the others in a battle where only ONE will survive and make the Top Two.  The OTHER of the Top Two will be chosen by the Brickmasters based on aesthetics.  Oh, and Twin Bricks' advantage...will be told later on.

For now...GET YOUR BRICK ON!  The Microsoft Surface tablets get a-working.  The Ringers like the idea...but, a third-of-the-way through the build, their having doubts about the strength.  The Sushi Bros concentrate on winning the derby itself rather than making their ride "pimped".  Other teams actually seem to be having fun with their builds.  Ute Moms argue over particulars while NYCHI Connection decide on a more open-wheel design, the OPPOSITE of Twin Bricks' design which covers the wheels.

TIME'S UP...BRICKS DOWN!  Will the Ringers cash in the Golden Brick?  Nope; they're confident in their build.:

-Zack & Wayne's ride is PURPLE PUNISHER, a stocky car FULL of Technic Bricks that can withstand the punishment...they hope.
-Dave & Richard shows us their RAD DEVIL, a demonic-looking car with a ramp on the front for launching.
-Mark & Steven has TOXIC TITAN, something right out of a "Mad Max" with a nightmarish look to it out of "Wacky Raceland".
-Susan & Jen has MUSCLE SPROUTS, a tractor with a cow catcher up from and flames out the other end.
-Maria and Philip gets us the BIG BLUE BEAST, a boxy hot rod hauling TNT like a kamikaze Mario Kart racer.
-Lauren & Bryan's entry is BVEWARE THE BULL, a Taurus-shaped fighter which makes the competitors see fire red, like the flames atop it.
-Caleb & Jacob has SUNSHINE WAGON, an ironically-named tow truck with chains and a wrecking ball (Miley Cyrus not included).
-Finally, Michelle & Natalie presents FEAR THE HORN, a sportster with a unicorn vibe which will, hopefully, make Unikitty jealous of its looks and brutality.

The Brickmasters consider and the winner of the aesthetic building portion of the challenge is...Mark & Steven!

Now the actual Demolition Derby will begin!  On the count of "GO", the racers will grab their remotes and get to wreckin'.  If Jamie feels a car has taken too much damage or cannot movie, he'll wave the black flag and disqualify the racer.  Last car standing faces Mark & Steven for the winner of the challenge.

Oh,...and Caleb & Jacob's advantage?  They don't have to race for 30 seconds.  The other seven will have to wreck each other for that time before the Sunshine Wagon is released.

Ladies & gentlemen, START YOUR ENGINES!  A five-car pile-up worthy of NASCAR short-track wrecks starts off the battle.  The Big Blue Beast seems to be the primary target while Fear The Horn keeps its distance (sans horn).  Toxic Titan takes a massive blow from Muscle Sprouts, so it's a good thing they're just playing for pride.

In comes Sunshine Wagon to try to wreck what's left...aaaaaaaaaaaand it drives RIGHT off the edge of the arena.  Uh,......oops?  Needless to say, they're black flagged and, most likely, will be ragged about this for the rest of their tenure.

Purple Punisher is destroying Toxic Titan (payback for Mark & Steven taking the Golden Brick from Zack & Wayne) and the Ringers get the next black flag.  Beware the Bull is mata-done, Big Blue Beast is bust, Muscle Sprouts wilted and Fear the Horn becomes an "imaginary" winner.  It's Rad Devil vs. Purple Punisher...but Punisher gets stuck on a loose tire.  With one last push, the winner is RAD DEVIL!

So...who wins the challenge as a whole: the good-looking Ringers or the still-running NYCHI Connection.  The winner is...

DAVE & RICHARD!  No one expected their ride to survive to the end so they get the accolades of best build of the week.

The BOTTOM two teams are not necessarily the Twin Bricks and Ute Moms; one was a terrible driver, the other was not as good looking as the others.  The ones being towed away this week are...

Susan & Jen!

The Mormons are morning as the prides of American Fork got the fork stuck in them.  The custom Mini-Figs are placed in Consolation Row, but they leave with their heads held high as to how much they accomplished.  And Caleb breaks down in tears for losing another "LEGO family member".

OK, the rest of you, hit the bricks.  When you come back, you'll be building the latest craze in renewable energy...and it'll HAVE to take the pressure of a tropical storm for you not to be blown out of the competition!

As a reminder, the player who completes his or her game the fastest will be the champion and go on to the Circle of Samurai for $100,000. If no one has completed their game, then the player who goes the fastest the furthest will win.
