Oh, yeah. OK. How dare you? Twelve thousand eight hundred for Dave. But you have to be correct in African geography. Known for its snows, this Tanzanian peak is both Africa's highest and the world's tallest freestanding mountain. What is Mount Kilimanjaro? That is correct. Yeah.
Great blazer. Climactic moments in sports movies. Jimmy Chitwood buries a jumper from the top of the key to win the Hickory Huskers the Indiana State Championship.
Sorry, no.

Good for 1,500.
It's a cucumber preserved in brine that has an irritating tendency to change its mind. Sean. What is a fickle pickle?
Losing my .
Orsinus orca, was that so hard? And yet people still insist on calling it a killer this. Sean.
Film festivals is the category. Here's the clue. So this is what really pisses me off. Called the premier movie industry event for the Balkans, this festival began 30 years ago while the city was under siege.
And she wagered.
Oh, my God!
Do you believe in me?
And you don't have to kick yourself, I think, because the way it worked out with Dave being the only one who knew final.
Well, you made small wagers on, at least you ended up knowing, on Nero, and then... Scary money don't make money.
Just watch. Just watch Mina hold her buzzer. Presumably French bread in this blockbuster. Sean. What is Les Miserables? Right. A thousand years. It's how long the hills have been alive with songs they have sung, whatever that means, in this musical. Dave, what is the sound effect?
This moon of Saturn or an NFL player from Tennessee. Mina. What is a Titan? Can to Titan. H-O-T-T-O-G-O. You can take me hot to go. Mina. Who is Chapel Roan. Yes, Chapel Roan. Did you see that gymnast, Steven Netarazic, in the Olympics? He only does one exercise. I can't remember what it's called. Mina. What is pommel horse? Right.
A boy in Maine sold Greenwood's Champion ear protectors after patenting this type of winter headgear in 1877. Mina. What are earmuffs? That's right. He's the inventor of the earmuffs.
Answer, Daily Double. What do you want to wager? Uh, 700. Just 700, all right. Oh, Doug B! 10,400 if you're right in thinking about the Roman Empire. Oh, this is so bad.

I know, I'm such a coward. I know.
Keep it in mind for next time.
Answer. Daily Double. I don't want to watch this. Let's bet $5,000. Oh, no. She loses. You'll be in the lead by $200 if you're right.
I was expelled from Pensy Prep. Bunch of phonies. Meet me at the carousel and wear galoshes. Holden.
You'll take the lead back by 400, but you have to be right. An advanced animalia. Scarabia desacker. That's a much more appealing designation than its stinkier name. Dung this. What is a beetle? Dung beetle. Yeah, you're back on top.
