Tough FJ as we got a triple stumper.
Congrats to ben on his second win. Jackie was way off with 20000 leagues under the sea as the event of a sea monster occurred in 1868 during some expedition and has nothing whatsoever related to Swiss family Robinson. Still ben is playing it safe and not risking a lot. So I still think he has a chance to build up his streak.
