00:01From the Alex Rebeck stage at Sony Pictures Studios, this is Jeopardy!
00:14Today's contestants are a director of product from Arlington, Virginia, Lydia Cawley.
00:21A grocer from East Moline, Illinois, Luke Henson.
00:25And our returning champion, a college professor and museum curator, originally from Alexandria, Virginia, James Dennison, whose four-day cash
00:36winnings totaled $99,400.
00:41And now, here is the host of Jeopardy! Ken Jennings.
00:48Thank you so much, Johnny Gilbert. Welcome back to Jeopardy!
00:51Following a fourth victory yesterday, our champion, James Dennison, is looking for that all-important fifth win today.
00:58The achievement that would guarantee him a spot in next year's Tournament of Champions.
01:02But I'm guessing our new players, Luke and Lydia, would be equally happy with a first win today.
01:06So good luck to all three of you. Let's see what happens as we get into the Jeopardy! round.
01:10One daily double on the board. These categories.
01:13A real palace.
01:15Then we have three-letter verbs.
01:18Colleges and universities.
01:19We'll be telling you some berry tales.
01:23Let's dish.
01:24And finally...
01:26I'm Conan O'Brien, hosting the Academy Awards for the second time.
01:30From the red carpet to best picture, I'll have clues about the great history of Oscar night.
01:35James, where do you want to begin?
01:37Colleges, 800.

02:17Lydia.
02:18What is the University of Pennsylvania?
02:19You're on the board.

02:30That berry is Berry Diller.
02:32Back to you, Lydia.
02:33Oscar night, 800.
02:34Here's Conan O'Brien.
02:36Hosting in 2025, I said I love this nominated film.
02:40I didn't want it to end, and luckily it didn't.
02:44That feeling even carried over into a speech later that night.
02:48Lydia.
02:48What is The Brutalist?
02:49That is the film.
02:50Oscar night, 1,000.
02:52Back to Oscar host, Conan O'Brien.
02:54Some amazing films aside, the only one so far to have an X rating and win best picture
03:00is this 1969 movie that gave us the immortal Dustin Hoffman line,

03:13Now a museum.
03:15Until 1959, the Potala Palace in Lhasa was the winter home of this spiritual leader.
03:20Luke.
03:21Who is the Dalai Lama?
03:22Good.
03:22Real Palace 2.
03:24The Hall of These at Versailles has 357 of them, which must have been handy for courtiers
03:29concerned with appearances.
03:31Luke.
03:31What is Mirrors?
03:33The Hall of Mirrors.
03:34You got it.

04:10Yes.
04:11Three-letter verbs, 800.
04:13It can mean to check something for accuracy or to work to make sure animals are healthy.
04:18James.
04:19What is vet?
04:19To vet, right?
04:20Tails, 1,000.
04:21When this William Makepeace Thackeray novel was made into a movie, Ryan O'Neill played
04:26the title character.
04:27James.
04:28What is Tess of the D'Urbervilles?
04:29No.
04:30Luke or Lydia?
04:33It's a Kubrick movie and a Barry tale, Barry Lyndon.
04:36James and Luke, you are tied for the lead midway through the round.
04:39We're going to take a quick break, but Jeopardy!
04:41Don't go anywhere.
04:43Lydia Hawley from Arlington, Virginia is a director of product who loves streaking.
04:48Is that right?
04:49Yeah.
04:49I don't know what you're thinking of, Ken.
04:51But streaking on a language app where a green bird tells me to practice my French and my
04:56Arabic every day.
04:57I've got a 2,200 day streak.
05:00Wow.
05:002,200 days?
05:02It's the most committed relationship I've had in my adult life with that bird on that app.
05:06And unlike my kind of streaking, you can wear whatever you want.
05:09Exactly.
05:10That sounds great.
05:10I'm never going to get up to 2,200, but maybe I will give it a shot.
05:13There you go.
05:14Luke Henson is a grocer from East Moline, Illinois.
05:16Yes, sir.
05:17Who, at the young age of six years old, hosted a birthday party for who?
05:21Abraham Lincoln.
05:22Was he there?
05:23He declined to attend.
05:26We had a party in February once I learned that his birthday was coming up.
05:30All my friends came.
05:32My brother Samuel and I did a little address about his life.
05:35And actually, just this past February, friends of mine, Seth and Elizabeth, gave me a present
05:43for Abraham Lincoln's birthday.
05:45They know it's a meaningful day to you.
05:46They do.
05:47That's great.
05:47They do.
05:48Well, we won't interrupt you next February.
05:49We know you're busy that day.
05:51Our returning champion is James Dennison, a college professor and museum curator,
05:55originally from Alexandria, Virginia, who has now taken us for almost $100,000.
06:01Do you have plans for the money at this point, James?
06:03As you can imagine, a lot of things are going through my mind.
06:06But one thing that I feel very confident that I want to do is my sister and I have been
06:10talking a lot about doing a 90s-style department store photo shoot, recreating our glory days.
06:15So that's number one on my list.
06:17You're going to go to a department store and put on 90s outfits?
06:21Yeah.
06:21And I think it's also about the funny poses.
06:24Okay.
06:24But I'm thinking we might invest in some striped turtlenecks as well.
06:28I need to look into what 90s poses are.
06:30I feel like I missed all that.
06:31Pick up your signaling devices, everybody.
06:33James is going to make the next selection.
06:35Dish 800.
06:37Corning launched this brand in 1915 with ads exclaiming,

06:57Uh, verbs, 600.
06:59Answer is a daily double for you, James.
07:05You have $4,400 to put at risk.
07:08True daily double, please.

07:18What is ply?
07:18To ply.
07:19Well done.
07:20Taking you to 8,800.
07:22But there is a lot of game left to play.

08:27you with Joe Pesci's full acceptance speech for acting in this film.
08:34It was my privilege.

10:16two daily doubles.
10:17That round will begin when we come back.
10:22Luke and Lydia have some catching up to do in Double Jeopardy.
10:24Let's find out if we have a good spread of categories for them.
10:27Up first, it's tech and science news.
10:30Then, entertainment by the numbers.

18:43Lydia Colley, you're a 21st century woman.
18:46Let's start with you.
18:46What did you come up with?
18:48Who is Goff?
18:49Coco Goff, I assume, and I'm afraid that is not correct.
18:52You wagered $27.
18:55You have $1,173 left over.
18:57Luke Henson was in second place with $8,400.
19:00You wrote down something very early.
19:02Who is Kaitlin Clark?
19:05Yes, the 22nd because she's jersey number 22, Iowa basketball legend.
19:10How much will you add, Luke?
19:12Ooh, wow, almost doubles it.
19:13$16,798 and the lead.
19:16So we come to our four-game champion, James Dennison, who needs to get this right.
19:20Does he have Kaitlin Clark?
19:21He missed it.
19:22Collins, he wagered $5,999, dropping him down to second place today.
19:27And Luke Henson becomes a Jeopardy champion with $16,798.
19:34James, we'll be seeing you very likely in the Tournament of Champions, so you'll be back.
19:39But Luke Henson will be back tomorrow.
19:41Join us then on Jeopardy.
