HS:

Men: $1,200 each/Amy: $600

George takes the DD from the $800 The ____ of _____ being just $200 behind the champ w/ $2600. He’ll bet six bills.

This one of the ancient wonders was toppled by an earthquake around 225 B.C.

“What are the Hanging Gardens of Babylon?”…not the one- the Colossus of Rhodes. Time sounds on the last two Pronun-ciations & the $800 clue for The Farmer in the Deli.

OCTOBERFEST
TALKIN’ TRASH
U.S. MUSEUMS
THE “TIMES” OF YOUR LIFE
DEAD LINES
WHO ORDERED THE MAMMAL?

The $2K Dead Line gives Amy a much-needed DD w/ $400 less than that; Seth still is $1400 ahead of the other man, $5200-$3800. She gambles her $1600.

He was the hard-boiled detective who silently mused “You were dead, you were sleeping the big sheep”.

She blanks on Phillip Marlow. Amy does find the other one w/ about min. left in the rd. right in the center of Who Ordered the Mammal?, now in 2nd w/ $5200, but Seth’s slightly in runaway mode w/ a total of $10,800; George’s sitting on $4600. She’ll gamble it all again (& she did very well on the $1600 answers this rd.).

All the living examples of the order Proboscidea are these.

“What are rabbits?” is what she said just before the time’s up signal…but they’re elephants, really. The time’s NOT quite there for the remaining U.S. Museums clue; fortunately it was the $400 one.

SOLE ATTEMPTED TS: $800 (Octoberfest)
