Mon 4-20-20 $15,824
On Jeopardy: $3,599

Kamika only got one I from the letter she selected. She just went
_ _ W N _ H E _ R _ N _ R _ A _
on this one, seemingly convinced that the last word was “life.” Somehow, it just didn’t register that an L was already showing in the first word. Not that it was easy otherwise! Kamika lost out on an extra $37,000.

Tue 4-21-20 $22,980
On Jeopardy: $22,801

Aurora only got one O, just like Kamika only got her vowel yesterday. I’m not too sure Aurora would have solved that even if she had been able to
_ _ C I P _ _ R T _ _ _ A _ T _ O R _.
She was just so nervous! That was another $37,000 the show didn’t have to shell out.

Wed 4-22-20 $69,603
On Jeopardy: $19,601

Marci had a shot at the $1,000,000 prize. She also had a Wild Card and put two D’s in the puzzle with it. That bit of luck helped her to solve the puzzle
W _ _ H _ _ M E _ O _ P A _ E.
Marci won an additional $37,000 on top of the $32,603 from the main game.

Thu 4-23-20 $56,620
On Jeopardy: $20,200

Arzo added one P, one M and three O’s to the bonus puzzle. She would have had
_ F _ I _ L _ _ E _ E N _ _ H _ N _ E
with just the consonants she chose, but picking that O made it a slam dunk. Arzo scooped up $37,000 to add to the $19,620 she won in the main game.

Fri 4-24-20 $82,050
On Jeopardy: $31,000

Michael got two C’s, 1 G and 4 O’s from his letters and solving this one was child’s play. In addition to making excellent letter choices, he had the good fortune to
_ I _ K A T E _ _ I F I _ _ A _ D
from the bonus wheel and capped off his $32,050 winnings with an extra $50,000.
