Right after Trebek’s done interviewing, Elizabeth plucks that DD from the $800 State Capital Attraction & places a wager of half.

First clue in GS in the Movies:

Elizabeth: “What is ‘(The) Hunger Games’?” ($7,700)

$800:

The all-too-simple premise of the GS hosted by Richard Dawson in this ’87 film– criminals were murdered.

Andre: “What is ‘(The) Running Man’?” ($1,800)

$1200:

Dev Patel won big on a GS in this ’08 film.

Elizabeth: “What is ‘Slumdog Millionaire’?” ($8,900)

$1600:

In “Quiz Show”, this Brit had all the answers on “Twenty-One” as Charles Van Doren; do you have the question?

Andre: “Who is Ray (Ralph) Fiennes?” ($3,400)

$2K:

“A Pig in a Poke” was the GS that sent this family headed by Chevy Chase on a “European Vacation”.

Andre: “Who are the Grizwalds?” ($5,400)

A DD finally flips out for Elizabeth on the $1600 Numerical Lit; she’s the third-placer w/ $7300, $900 behind the champ for 2nd & $1300 off Andre the leader. Elizabeth goes for a G.

This English thinker’s Two Treatises of Government had a “Key” influence on the Declaration of Independence.

“Who was Locke?”- should’ve gambled higher. She finds all three by selecting the $1200 I’m Not Just Saying & is the new leader w/ $10,700. This is for another two.

This 2,400-yr.-old text began “I swear by Apollo the physician”.

“What is The Iliad?”…actually, The Hippocratic Oath. This time, the time has runneth out on the $1600 answer from Sudan Impact.
