00:01From the Alex Rebeck stage at Sony Pictures Studios, this is Jeopardy!
00:14Introducing today's contestants, a student originally from Lyle, Illinois, Tanya Iyer.
00:21A manager research analyst from Toronto, Ontario, Canada, Brent Wilson.
00:27And our returning champion, a bureaucrat and law student from Lawrenceville, New Jersey, Jamie Ding, whose 10-day cash winnings
00:38totaled $272,810.
00:44And now, here is the host of Jeopardy! Ken Jennings!
00:51Thank you so much, Johnny. Welcome to Jeopardy!
00:54With another runaway win in yesterday's game, our champ Jamie Ding has solidified his status as a double-digit winner,
01:00with now over a quarter of a million dollars of Jeopardy! earnings to his name.
01:04When I asked Jamie after the game how that kind of money might change his life, he thought and he
01:09said,
01:09now I can move closer to public transportation.
01:12I'm sure Jamie would love to claim an 11th win today, get even closer to that bus or train stop,
01:16but I'm imagining that Brent and Tanya have other plans.
01:19So, good luck to all three of you. Without any further ado, let's get into the Jeopardy! round.
01:24Your categories today are, first, movie opening scenes, then we have a tunnel of fun,

02:41Beginning in 1997, it began moving its many collections into a new complex at St. Pancras.
02:50And it's still there.
02:51The British Library.
02:52Jamie, back to you.

04:04Jamie?
04:04What is a Great Dane?
04:05You figured it out, yes.
04:07That's a pricey car wash for $600.
04:09It's worth every penny to baby my car's finish with this type of wash, whose nine-letter

05:06Yes, it's Julie Andrews and The Sound of Music.
05:08You have a $4,000 lead at the moment, but there's a lot of Jeopardy! left to be played.
05:14Tonya Iyer is a student originally from Lyle, Illinois, and some of your studies have focused
05:18on this show, right?
05:20Absolutely.
05:20I wrote one of my college theses on Jeopardy!
05:23actually a couple of years after Mr. Trebek passed away.
05:25It was a reflection on his tenure on Jeopardy!
05:27That's great.
05:28Any novel findings that you could teach us about Jeopardy!
05:30from your scholarship?
05:31You know, I thought this was groundbreaking at the time, but I came to the conclusion that
05:34Jeopardy! is actually more based on merit and skill than our nation's economic
05:38system.
05:38So that was my finding.
05:39That actually makes a lot of sense.
05:41I can vouch for that.
05:43Bren Wilson is a manager research analyst from Toronto.
05:46The worst moment of your life was later immortalized where?
05:49I have to understand this.
05:50It was on a bus.
05:51So I ran the Boston Marathon.
05:53It was awful.
05:54I hit the wall.
05:56It's the worst pain I've ever been in.
05:57Oh, wow.
05:58And then one of the race sponsors decided to commoditize my pain, and they put a picture
06:02of me in clear agony on the side of a bus.
06:04I only ran the race so people would compliment me on social media.
06:07And instead, they just want to talk about my bus pain.
06:09Why do they advertise the Boston Marathon using a guy who's clearly having a bad time?
06:13I don't know.
06:14Unclear.
06:15So in addition to my physical pain, I got some psychic pain as well.
06:19But you're famous on a bus.
06:20Sort of.
06:21Now I'm going to be famous for losing on Jeopardy!
06:23Not necessarily, Brent.
06:25Jamie Ding, the pride of Lawrenceville, New Jersey.
06:27Right now, you're a bureaucrat and a law student, but you have different career aspirations.
06:31What's the dream job, Jamie?
06:33I'd like to curate maybe at least one museum exhibit.
06:36Okay.
06:37About what?
06:37Do you have a topic you'd like to work on?
06:39The hardest I've left in recent memory was when my friend Andrew and I went to the Museum
06:44of Bad Art in Boston.
06:46Okay.
06:47Absolutely hilarious.
06:49And what I'd like to do, I guess, what they really should do is a collaboration with a
06:53museum of good art, like maybe the MFA in Boston, because honestly, I think it would
06:57be pretty educational for people to see, okay, this is bad art and this is good art.
07:01This is why we like the good art.
07:02You could alternate, the dizzying highs and lows.
07:05You have control of the board right now, Jamie.
07:08Before you curate your exhibit, make a selection.
07:10Let's check out the library for a thousand.
07:12The interior of the Walker Library of the History of the Human Imagination was inspired

07:53No.
07:54Brent.
07:55What's Kyoto?
07:55Also incorrect.
07:57Tanya, doing well by not buzzing.
