The week began with a triple stumper and ended on the same note. In between, there was one clue everyone solved. That was on Tuesday and was the easiest clue by far. The other two clues each produced one correct response. I’m pretty sure Friday’s triple stumper was the hardest. Presidents are studied much more for Jeopardy! than aviation.

This week’s winners:
Mon 11/11/24 $17,497 Joey DeSena
Tue 11/12/24 $27,201 Joey DeSena
Wed 11/13/24 $29,200 Evan Dorey
Thu 11/14/24 $14,100 Stephanie Asalone
Fri 11/15/24 $15,201 Paul Clauson

Joey DeSena kicked off the week by defeating returning champ Rachel Marcus. Joey hung in there for a second win but lost to Evan Dorey on Wednesday. Stephanie Asalone won Thursday’s game with the only correct FJ! response, the same way Evan won his game. Paul Clauson was fortunate to have a runaway on Friday, when Final Jeopardy! was a triple stumper.

Jeopardy!’s total payout for the week was $103,199 in winnings plus $25,000 in consolation prizes.

Here is the HEIST FILMS category from Tuesday’s game.
