08:02the answer correct.
08:02We'll join William with 700 points in the next round, and if you ring in and are incorrect, then your

08:15What English chemist invented the electric generator and discovered electromagnetic induction?
08:22Genevieve.
08:23Faraday?
08:24Michael Faraday is correct, which means you are moving on to play in the next round with William for $20

08:35Coming up next, the pursuit continues as William and Genevieve go head-to-head for the chance to move on
08:41and play for $20,000.
08:43Right here on Trivial Pursuit.
08:56Welcome back to Trivial Pursuit.
08:58William and our returning champion Genevieve have made it here to the next round.
09:03Let's get to know them a little bit better.
09:06Genevieve, two tiebreakers in a row.
09:10How are you feeling after that?
09:11I'm feeling good. I'm excited to be here, and I just want to make it to another final pursuit.
09:16William, you are a data scientist.
09:19So settle the issue for me. Is it data or data?
09:23Depends on what side of the pond you're on, I guess.
09:24I see. Okay. All right.
09:26In America, most people say data.
09:28I do when I'm referring to my best friend on Star Trek.
09:33The best of luck to both of you. Let's get back to the game.
09:36In this round, you're going to be answering multiple choice questions, working your way through the categories once again.
09:42Only this time, each correct answer is worth an escalating value from 200 to 1,000 points.
09:49Now, you both selected the order of the categories that you're going to be playing, and you picked one category
09:55that you'd rather not play at all.
09:59And William, I see that art and literature is the category you selected to not play, and science and nature
10:06as your 1,000-point category.
10:08As a data scientist, I'm a little surprised by that.
10:12I stuck to reading more comic books than regular books in my day.
10:16And part of studying mathematics is coming to learn and love all that science has to offer.
10:22And Genevieve, you have opted to skip sports and leisure, and 1,000 points in art and literature is your
10:29go-to category.
10:30And this is the path that has gotten you where you are, is it not?
10:34It got me here. I like all the categories, but this is the set that I like the best.
10:38Whichever one of you has the most points, at the end of this round, we'll move on to play the
10:43final pursuit for $20,000.
10:47Let the pursuit begin.
10:51Genevieve, you are trailing by 200 points, so you'll be going first.
10:56For 200 points, Genevieve, in the category of entertainment,
10:59what is the name of Ken's dream house in the 2023 film Barbie?
11:05Just Beach House, Knuff Palace, or Mojo Dojo Casa House?
11:12So, I enjoyed the movie Barbie. All of these are phrases out of the movie,
11:16but Mojo Dojo Casa House is so catchy, I'm going to go with Mojo Dojo Casa House.
11:24Genevieve, see if you're right.
11:27Mojo Dojo Casa House is correct.
11:30William, currently tied.
11:32Here, sir, is your 200-point multiple-choice question in entertainment.
11:38Which former SNL cast member created the Netflix series I Think You Should Leave?
11:44Would that be Bill Hader, Leslie Jones, or Tim Robinson?
11:51Okay, okay.
11:53I know some of Bill Hader's work.
11:56I know what Leslie Jones has been doing the last few years.
11:59The one I'm not sure about is Tim Robinson.
12:03So, process of elimination, I'm going to go with Tim Robinson.
12:09William, see if you're right.
12:13Tim Robinson.
12:14Genevieve, here is your 400-point question in the category of geography.
12:21The Mason-Dixon Line and which river were considered the boundaries between North and South in the Civil War?
12:30Would that be the Columbia River, the Missouri River, or the Ohio River?
12:36So, I'm not 100% sure on the name of this river.
12:40I think the Mason-Dixon Line is in Maryland.
12:44I associate the Columbia River with Maryland.
12:47I'm going to go with Columbia River.
12:50I'll lock that in.
12:52Genevieve, let's see if you're right.
12:56It's the Ohio River.
12:58Here is an opportunity for you to pull away, William.
13:01Here is your 400-point question in the category sports and leisure.
13:08Nicknamed the king, which driver holds the record for most NASCAR Cup Series wins with 200?
13:16Dale Earnhardt, Richard Petty, or Rusty Walms?
13:21Okay, okay. Let's think through this.
13:24I don't... Dale, I don't think he had a nickname like that.
13:28I'm not sure about Rusty, but I know a little something about Richard Petty.
13:32I think it's Richard Petty. I'm going to go with Richard Petty.
13:39William, let's see if you're right.
13:44Richard Petty, indeed.
13:45Here's a chance to tie it up, Genevieve.
13:47For 600 points in the category of history.
13:51Which famed industrialist refused to vacate his room at the Desert Inn in Las Vegas and simply bought the entire
14:00hotel instead?
14:02Was that Howard Hughes, J. Paul Getty, or William Randolph Hearst?
14:09So I don't know this fact.
14:13All three of these men were super rich, so could have bought this.
14:17I associate Howard Hughes with unusual behavior.
14:21I don't associate him as much with the term industrialist.
14:25But I'm going to go with Howard Hughes. I'll lock that in.
14:30Genevieve, let's see if you're right.
14:35William, you are currently tied with Genevieve.
14:40Here then, sir, is your 600-point question in the category of history.
14:46Which play was President Lincoln attending at Ford's Theatre on the fateful night of April 14, 1865?
14:55Was it a doll's house, our American cousin, or Shenandoah?
15:02These are all choices that sound plausible.
15:07I want to say it was a doll's house.
15:12I believe it's a doll's house.
15:15William, let's see if you're right.
15:19Mm, it was our American cousin. That's the play.
15:24Genevieve, here is your 800-point question in the category science and nature.
15:33CA is the symbol for which chemical element?
15:38Cadmium, calcium, or cobalt?
15:43These are all chemical elements. I know all of the symbols.
15:48Calcium is CA, so I'm going to go with CA, calcium.
15:53With confidence.
15:57And right you are.
15:58William, here, sir, is your 800-point question in geography.
16:05How many U.S. state capitals lie west of Los Angeles?
16:10Two, four, or six?
16:16All right, I'm going to go into my mind palace a little bit, visualize the map.
16:20Ah.
16:23That curve in the southwest of the U.S. is getting me.
16:28I'm just going to have to go with my gut.
16:30I'm going to say two.
16:32Locking in on to William.
16:36Let's see if you're right.
16:40The six state capitals west of L.A.
16:44Genevieve, if you get this, once again you will move on to play for the $20,000.
16:50Here is your 1,000-point question in art and literature.
16:56Which French sculptor designed the Statue of Liberty?
17:01Was it Frederic Auguste Bartholdi, Henri Labrouste, or Jean Novelle?
17:11So the Statue of Liberty was a gift from France to the U.S.
17:16The name Bartholdi is jumping out to me, and that's what I'm going to go with.
17:21My final answer is Frederic Auguste Bartholdi.
17:26Then let's see if you're right.
17:30Indeed.
17:31Congratulations, Genevieve.
17:32You are moving on again to play for another $20,000.
17:38And William, you gave Genevieve all that she could handle.
17:42It was great having you with us.
17:44Genevieve, would you like to join me over here in the center?
17:47I would love to.
17:48Back again.
17:49And when we come back, we'll see if Genevieve can once again conquer all six categories
17:53in the final pursuit right here on Trivial Pursuit.

18:10I'm here with Genevieve, who has just outplayed her opponents
18:14and has made it back again to the final pursuit for another chance to win $20,000.
18:23So, Genevieve, this is your third time in this round.
18:27Does it get easier?
18:28It's more comfortable up here, and I love this round because it's just about the questions.
18:32You, me, and facts.
18:34All that stands between you and another $20,000 are our six Trivial Pursuit categories.

29:24And that's the end of the round, players.
29:27Congratulations, Andy, with 900 points.
29:30Maya, you came on very strong at the end with 300 points.
29:33You are both moving on, which means that, Genevieve, it was great having you here.
29:38Thanks for playing. You are a very strong champion.
29:45And, Genevieve, tonight you're going home with a little change in your pocket.
29:50That's $45,000.
29:54Coming up next, the pursuit continues as Andy and Maya go head-to-head for the chance to move on
30:00and play the $20,000 right here on Trivial Pursuit.
30:15Welcome back to Trivial Pursuit. Andy and Maya have made it to the next round, so let's get to know
30:21them a little bit better. Andy, you have a fascinating job.
30:25I do, yes. I work as a puzzle maker and editor for a national publication.
30:31Crossword puzzles or puzzles of all kinds?
30:35Puzzles of all kinds, though I got started doing crosswords very young, and now it's my dream job.
30:40And, Maya, you're a college student. What are you studying?
30:44Yes, so I'm actually a senior mathematics major with a minor in Spanish.
30:48Well, let me ask you a question. What is cinco plus two?
30:52Siete.
30:52Your professors would be awfully proud right now.
30:55Hopefully.
30:56The best of luck to both of you. Let's get back to the game.
31:00In this round, you're going to be answering multiple choice questions, working your way through the categories once again.
31:06However, this time, each correct answer is worth an escalating value from 200 to 1,000 points.
31:14And you both selected the order of the categories that you'll be playing, and you also picked one category that
31:21you didn't want to see on this board.
31:23So, Andy, I see that you have selected to skip the entertainment category, and 1,000 points in art and
31:30literature is your go-to.
31:32Tell me about your strategy here. Not fond of entertainment?
31:35Oh, I love entertainment, but these days there's just so much of it that I don't think anyone can keep
31:40up with everything, so I'm setting it aside for now.
31:43And, Maya, you have the exact same category path as your competitor, Andy.
31:49Well, you know, I'm not too big of an entertainment person, but I feel pretty confident about the rest.
31:57Well, I hope your strategies pay off.
31:59And whichever one of you has the most points at the end of this round, we'll move on to the
32:04final pursuit to play for $20,000.
32:09Y'all ready? Yes.
32:11Let the pursuit begin.
32:16Maya, you are trailing by 600 points, so you'll be going first.
32:20For 200 points, Maya, here is your multiple-choice question in sports and leisure.
32:28Which of these Hall of Fame quarterbacks never won a Super Bowl?
32:33Would that be Dan Marino, Johnny Unitas, or Roger Staubach?
32:39I'm not really too sure about this, LaVar, and I think I'm going to have to guess.
32:45I want to say Dan Marino, and I'm going to lock that in. That's going to be my final answer.
32:53Maya, let's see if you're right.
32:57Dan Marino never won a Super Bowl.
32:59All right, Andy, 200 points in your multiple-choice category in sports and leisure.
33:06First introduced in 1952, Les Paul guitars are manufactured by which company?
33:14Is that Fender, Gibson, or Taylor?
33:20I had a thought before the choices came up, and then I saw a different choice that I liked better.
33:26And now I'm second-guessing myself.
33:28I'm going to go with Gibson, and I'll lock that in.
33:32Let's see if you're right.
33:36That is correct.
33:38Maya, here is your 400-point question in the category of history.
33:44Featuring Grover Cleveland until 1928, whose face is on the current edition of the $20 bill?
33:53Is that Andrew Jackson, Thomas Jefferson, and Lissi's S. Grant?
34:03I think...
34:06Yeah, okay. I think I'm going to go with Andrew Jackson here.
34:10I don't think it's Thomas Jefferson, but this is also a guess.
34:15Maya, let's see if you're right.
34:18Andrew Jackson, it is.
34:20Andrew, this is your 400-point question, and the category is also history.
34:27Which of these states has the most electoral college votes?
34:32Is it Georgia, North Carolina, or Pennsylvania?
34:37Wow. That is tough. They are all very close to each other.
34:44I will...
34:46Oh, it's so close.
34:50I will guess...
34:54Pennsylvania?
34:56I'll lock that in.
34:59Andy, let's see if you're right.
35:02Pennsylvania has 19, both Georgia and North Carolina 16.
35:07So, to tie it up, Maya, here is your 600-point question in the category of geography.
35:14Houdini Plaza and Houdini Elementary School are located in which state honoring the illusionist who lived there as a child?
35:24Nevada, Texas, or Wisconsin?
35:30I have no idea.
35:35Um...
35:36I'm going to say Nevada.
35:39And I'll lock that in. That'll be my answer.
35:42Maya, let's see if you're right.
35:47Wisconsin.
35:48Andy, for your 600-point question in the category geography,
35:54which of these languages comes from the Basque region of Europe?
36:00Catalan, Euskara, or Ladino?
36:04Huh.
36:07I'm pretty sure Euskara is the native name of Basque.
36:15So...
36:16I would have said Catalan if that weren't there.
36:19But because it is, I think I have to say it.
36:21I will say Euskara.
36:23And I'll lock that in.
36:24Let's see if you're right.
36:28Indeed, you are right.
36:30Euskara it is.
36:31Maya, if you don't get this, Andy will move on to the final pursuit to play for $20,000.
36:38Here is your 800-point question in science and nature.
36:45Which of these animals is not a marsupial?
36:50A possum?
36:52A sloth?
36:54Or a sugar glider?
36:57I actually don't even know what a sugar glider is.
37:00So let me think.
37:04Um...
37:06I'm going to say...
37:08Sugar glider.
37:11Maya, let's see if you're correct.
37:17Sloth.
37:18Congratulations, Andy.
37:19You, sir, are moving on to play for a chance at $20,000.
37:25Maya, you are a strong player.
37:27It was wonderful having you with us.
37:29Thank you for having me.
37:30Andy, would you like to join me over here, sir?
37:33Yes, sir.
37:34When we come back, we will see if Andy can conquer all six categories in the final pursuit for $20
37:40,000 right here on Trivial Pursuit.
37:55Welcome back, y'all.
37:57I am here with Andy, who has outplayed his opponents and has made it here to the final pursuit for
38:03an opportunity to win $20,000.
38:10Andy, I hope you realize that you managed to best two very good players.
38:16I was thoroughly impressed by both of them.
38:19And we were impressed by you.
38:21All that stands between you and the $20,000 are our six Trivial Pursuit categories.
38:28You will have 45 seconds.
38:30You will earn $1,000 for each correct answer.
38:34And if you answer all six questions correctly within the allotted 45 seconds, you, Andy, will win $20,000.
38:44To help you with your pursuit, I want you to choose the first category that you'd like to play.
38:49I'll play Blue Geography.
38:52Certainly a strong suit for you.
38:54If you get any incorrect, Andy, you will always be able to circle back to them, provided there's time on
39:00the clock.
39:01Let's put 45 seconds on the clock, please.
39:07The time will begin, Andy, when I finish reading the first question.
