00:01From the Alex Rebeck stage at Sony Pictures Studios, this is Jeopardy!
00:14Introducing today's contestants, an attorney from Greenville, South Carolina, Valerie Fulton.
00:21A professor of tree fruit physiology, originally from Saline, Michigan, Chase Griffin.
00:27And our returning champion, a data scientist, originally from Lincoln, Nebraska, Tristan Williams, whose seven-day cash winnings total $132
00:39,900.
00:42And now, here is the host of Jeopardy! Ken Jennings.
00:49Thank you, Johnny. Welcome to Jeopardy!
00:52It was win number seven for our champion, Tristan Williams, in yesterday's game.
00:56But unlike in his previous four wins, Tristan did not have the runaway going yesterday, and the pressure was on
01:01him to be correct in final.
01:03Thankfully for him, Jack and Diane meant that, oh yeah, Tristan's run goes on.
01:08He's joined today by Chase and Valerie on the Alex Rebeck stage.
01:11Good luck to all three of you.
01:12Let's see what categories you're dealing with in the Jeopardy! round.
01:16We have blank of blank literary edition in the first column, then the elements, a meet-cute, followed by song
01:26-song blue, the old west, and finally, expressions from the sporting world.
01:32Tristan, start the game for us.
01:34Let's do the elements for 800.
01:36Escalith is a brand name of the carbonate of this element used to treat bipolar disorder.
01:41Valerie.
01:42What is lithium?
01:43Yes.
01:43A meet-cute for 600.
01:46The pork version of this ten-letter cut of meat is the most, let's say, soft and succulent part of
01:51piggy.
01:52Tristan.
01:52What is the tenderloin?
01:53Yes.
01:54The element's 600?
01:56To phrase a coin, a nickel is only 25% nickel.
02:00The rest is this reddish element.
02:02Chase.
02:02What is copper?
02:03Yes.
02:04Let's do the elements for 1,000.

02:09Don't say wolfram.
02:11Chase.
02:11What is tungsten?
02:12Correct for 1,000.
02:13Let's do meet-cute for 800.

02:19now.
02:20Chase.
02:21What is brisket?
02:21It is a brisket.
02:22Meet-cute for 1,000.
02:24Called Italian bacon, it gets its name from the Italian word for belly, as in pork belly.
02:29Valerie.
02:30What is pancetta?
02:31You get 1,000.
02:32Literary edition, 600, please.
02:34I was named after a swimming pool, says the son of a zookeeper in this novel by Jan Martel.

02:41That's right.

02:44Bible story plus California history equals Steinbeck's formula for this 1952 novel.
02:50Chase.
02:51What is east of Eden?
02:52That's correct.
02:53A meet-cute for 400.
02:55A turkey's heart, liver, and gizzard make up what's called this plural word, which can
02:59be fried or stewed.
03:01Valerie.
03:02What are the giblets?
03:03Yes.
03:04Song sung blue for 600.
03:06In this song, New Order asked the question, how does it feel to treat me like you do?
03:11Tristan.
03:12What is blue Monday?
03:13That is the song.

03:44Tristan, back to you.
03:45Let's do Old West for 800.
03:47You know how people say on Fridays, the office is like one of these?
03:51Well, former mining center Bonanza, Idaho, is one all week long.
03:55Tristan.
03:55What is a ghost town?
03:56Good.
03:57Old West 600?
03:58It's unclear which member of this kind of group, formed by Marshall Heck Thomas, fired

04:06Tristan.
04:07What is a posse?
04:08Yeah.
04:09Expressions from the Sporting World 800.
04:11Like a golfer sent home halfway through a tournament, one who's rejected at a certain

04:25Jeopardy! will be back after this commercial break.
04:35Valerie Fulton is an attorney from Greenville, South Carolina.
04:38And Valerie, I'm learning about a South Carolina event I had never heard of before.
04:42As a young person, you used to attend...
04:44The South Carolina Annual Governor's Frog Jump.
04:47Governor's Frog Jump.
04:48It is not particularly well-known even in South Carolina.
04:51Both of my grandparents were from a very tiny town called Springfield.
04:54They hosted every single year.
04:56I never had to pay for a frog.
04:58My cousins provided those.
04:59Oh, you've actually raced in the frog jump.
05:01Well, you don't race.
05:03I'm sorry.
05:03I don't want to offend, Valerie.
05:05You try to make your frog jump the furthest.
05:08And does the governor have a frog?
05:09No, the governor is in no way involved.
05:11That is simply a mystery of naming.
05:13So there you go.
05:14I feel like I know even less about this event than I did a second ago.
05:17You're welcome.
05:17It sounds like fun.
05:19Chase Griffith is here, originally from Saline, Michigan.
05:21A professor of tree fruit physiology.
05:24That's right.
05:24This is a new one on me, Chase.
05:26What does a tree fruit physiologist do?
05:28Yeah, Michigan State Horticulture.
05:30We're trying to make plants work better for us.
05:32And so in my particular job, I get to work on tree fruit.
05:34First Michigan apples, now Michigan cherries, peaches, trying to make them better.
05:38So I worked on Honeycrisp, trying to improve it over the years.
05:40And we made a little bit of progress.
05:41The Honeycrisp is pretty good, Chase.
05:43You're doing good work.
05:43As is, yep.
05:44Thank you for your service.
05:45Thanks.
05:45Our returning champion from Lincoln, Nebraska, Tristan Williams, a data scientist.
05:50A few years back, you had kind of an interesting celebrity encounter at the movies, right?
05:53Who did you see?
05:54Yeah.
05:54So I was getting ready to go into a movie.
05:56And I look over.
05:57I'm like, is that Adam Duritz?
05:58From Counting Crows.
05:59From Counting Crows.
06:00Yeah.
06:00Who's a pretty distinct looking man.
06:01I was like, okay.
06:02That, maybe that is.
06:04Then we get inside.
06:04And I sit down.
06:05I'm like, oh, I'm in the same row as him.
06:06And then he's talking to everybody in the row.
06:08And I'm like, is that the entire band, Counting Crows?
06:11So it turns out I saw Super Troopers 2 with Counting Crows as I verified on their Twitter
06:16that they were there.
06:17That they all hang out together and go to the movies.
06:19Yeah.
06:20Good vibes in Counting Crows.
