TVTranscript
00:01From the Alex Rebeck stage at Sony Pictures Studios, this is Jeopardy!
00:14Today's contestants are a research scientist, originally from Parsippany, New Jersey, Nisho Shah.
00:21A development officer from Indianapolis, Indiana, Corey Aiello.
00:26And our returning champion, a return Peace Corps volunteer from Arlington, Virginia, Quinton Powers, whose two-day cash winnings total
00:38$20,798.
00:42And now, here is the host of Jeopardy, Ken Jennings.
00:49Thank you, folks. Thank you, Johnny Gilbert. And welcome to Jeopardy!
00:53Yesterday, Quinton Powers emerged from Final Jeopardy! as a two-day champion.
00:58And after the show, he told us he had two goals coming into Jeopardy!
01:01He just wanted to make it to Final Jeopardy!, he said, and he wanted to make his family proud.
01:06And I'm guessing from their smiling faces in the crowd that Quinton's two for two on achieving his goals.
01:11Today, he's joined by Corey and Nisho, who had Jeopardy! dreams of their own, I assume.
01:15Good luck to both of you. I want to see you all do well. Here are your categories in the

05:09And my mom, since that day, has been disappointed for the past 25 years.
05:14She never fails to let me hear it.
05:16So this is a new story for the next 25 years.
05:19No, maybe you can exorcise all those demons with your Jeopardy!
05:22Let me get this straight.
05:23You didn't even misspell a word.
05:25You just went to gym.
05:26I just missed it completely.
05:27And your mom's still thinking about it all those years later.
05:31You're gonna do very well today, Nishal.
05:33Thanks, man.
05:33This is gonna end for you.
05:34Corey Aiello is here from Indianapolis, Indiana.

05:45Wow!
05:45Identical twins?
05:46My identical twin.
05:47That's fantastic.
05:48Uh, is this gonna lead to an epidemic of people pretending to be their own twins
05:51so they can come back on Jeopardy?
05:53Well, that's not what I did, Ken.
05:55Just to be clear.
05:56It may.
