MOVIE TITLE CHARACTERS: In this 2012 film set just before the Civil War, a German dentist declares that the title character’s surname is Freeman show

This week we had one triple solve and one clue that went 2 out of 3, making those the week’s easiest. There were two triple stumpers. The European Tourist Attraction clue was the worst of those due to that other connection between Andersen and Disney. On Friday, only one person came up with the right movie.

Returning champ Patrick Hume didn’t get his 4th win when Mike Nelson sent him home. Mike won 2 more games. He didn’t get his 4th win either when Kelly Donohue sent him home. Kelly won again on Friday and he will be going for a 3rd win this coming Monday.
