On Jeopardy: $26,400
Cat and Lisa added one H and two A's to the bonus puzzle. Once those three letters were revealed,
_ H E _ _ L U _ I _ N W A _ _ B V I _ U _.
The only mystery left was what was on the card and it turned out to be a brand new MINI Cooper for each of them. They won $21,600 in the main game and that added a combined value of $55,460 to their jackpot.

On Jeopardy: $12,400
Naami & Temimah got three D's and one O from the letters they chose, but they did not get the G. The problem was
_ H E _ _ H _ U _ H _ _ H E _ _ I _.
They couldn't break free from that misconception so they couldn't win the $45,000 on the card.
Wed 2-19-20 $63,550
On Jeopardy: $46,801
Laura & Beth got one C, one F and two O's from their letters. Into the puzzle those letters went and
_ U _ _ F _ H E I _ M _ U _ H S
came the solution. Into their pockets went an additional $37,000 to top off the $26,550 they won in the main game. Great work, ladies!

On Jeopardy: $25,601
Emily & Pauline put one F and four O's into their bonus puzzle. Unfortunately, they didn't pay enough attention to
_ H _ U S _ _ L _ _ _ _ R B O _ R _
or they wouldn't have tried 'rooms' for that last word! Pat was holding another uncollectible $37,000 card.
Fri 2-21-20 $22,850
On Jeopardy: $19,601
Erica & Kristy completely filled in the second word with two P's and one O. They also added one G to the first and second words. With that category, this puzzle certainly required these players to
_ H _ N K _ U _ S _ D _ _ H _ B _ _
(pun intended, a little). Let's face it. The category was misleading and that cost the ladies a pair of MINI Coopers.

Only ONE of the contestants got Final Jeopardy! right.
WHAT IS CHINA?
According to The Hindu's explanation of China's 'one country, two systems' policy, it was a policy formulated by Deng Xiaoping and originally meant to unify China and Taiwan, but that did not work out. China added the provision to its Constitution in December 1982 and the policy was applied to Hong Kong and Macau when those territories were returned to Chinese Control: 'Hong Kong returned to Chinese control on July 1, 1997, and Macau's sovereignty was transferred on December 20, 1999. Both regions became Special Administrative Regions of China. The regions would have their own currencies, economic and legal systems, but defence and diplomacy would be decided by Beijing. Their mini-Constitutions would remain valid for 50 years — till 2047 for Hong Kong and 2049 for Macau. It is unclear what will happen after this term.'
Kris got it right and added this message (And who is going to hire this PhD?). He bet $7,001 and brought him up to $16,601. 'You may not need anybody to hire you,' Alex said.
Nicole thought it was the Czech Republic. She lost her $6,801 bet and finished with $2,999.
Sid went with Germany. That cost him $3,400 and dropped him down to $13,200. That made Kris Sunderic the new Jeopardy! champ. No one was more surprised than he was!
A triple stumper from each round:
CLASSIC ROCK & ROLL QUOTES ($600) 'It doesn't matter whether you win or lose, it's how good you looked', said this Van Halen frontman in 1984
ALLITERATIVE ACTRESSES ($1600) 30 years after her 'Children of a Lesser God' Oscar, she received an award for her work for people with disabilities
Reversal: That was on the $800 clue in LANGUAGES & DIALECTS – the whole category is on the next page in the Sneak Peek clues.
