Season 39

Mon 1-10-22: $65,148
On Jeopardy: $15,200

Camille got one each of her regular choices and she also got one H with her Wild Card. I don’t think that the H
D R _ M _ _ I C _ _ _ Y _ I _ _ E D _ H E _ C _ _ E _
in her favor but, surely, it didn’t hurt. A quick solve meant Camille was $45,000 richer than she was a few seconds earlier.

Heidi made out fine with the letters she picked, getting one of each. That made things easy for her and to say Heidi was overjoyed
I _ Q _ I T _ _ N _ N D _ R _ T _ T _ M _ N T
She won an extra $39,000, more than tripling the $19,400 she won in the main game.

Garrett picked 4 letters that weren’t in the puzzle, not that we haven’t seen that happen before. Garrett’s effort to talk it out went nowhere
F O _ T H _ _ S _ A L _ _ A S O _.
He was working with a word that had two M’s in it. It’s a shame he didn’t realize that. There were 3 instances of the key letter that would have really helped him solve the puzzle and win the $39,000.

Jeané only got an A out of her regular letter choices. Having a Wild Card
W A _ T _ U _ Y A B _ E _ _ I N G
in this bonus round. The two D’s Jeané got from that enabled her to completely solve the puzzle right away. She was very happy to supplement the $19,000 she already won with the $40,335 BMW X1.
