When she started off by saying that A was "stupid", I was thinking "nooooooooooooo!! Work out what the drinks are, don't go by how plausible the names sound!!" But she couldn't hear me in the past. Yikes.

I guessed Himosa before the choices came up, which is a better name (don't @ me). Rough break for Claudia.

Yes, that was painful to watch as one could see the wheels come off the track.

Well, that was a gimme! I have tickets to that show in November with Lauren’s replacement, Laura Benanti, you know, the fierce Melania Trump impersonator

Tough to know what the guy was thinking from that edit, but it seemed like a random guess. We didn’t hear him connect Miss Hannigan to Annie, or any character to any show. Should have used a lifeline!

Hard for me to assess if that was a fair question for $7,000 - thoughts?

I didn’t see that coming at all. She started out her game so confident, then got a big laugh for her “just stupid” comment, then went right off the rails. Yikes!

Why does the show insist on saying “you’re leaving here empty handed” when they really get $1,000?

One more thing to add about Claudia just to make sure her trivia credentials are known: It takes more than two hands to count all of the games of J! she has played.

I have not been on FB since early this morning to get more clues. Who was her +1? Bud had mentioned a bunch of J! alums he saw in the green room.

I'm not sure what happened with Claudia, but that was painful. I sure didn't see that one coming. Plus the next guy as well.

Yeah, I had kind of averted my eyes to avoid spoilers when I popped up the video, but I noticed the filename was "perry102518.mp4", and I thought, "ooh, like Claudia Perry?"

Millionaire players generally don't do well with food and drink, but kudos to Tom who nailed the recent teriyaki question for $50K

I can do it although the editing, uploading and processing will probably take up to an hour depending on how slow or fast Google is today. About 1:35 PT this afternoon sounds reasonable. My recording does not include the final credits, but all of the questions are there.

This is the video for the 10/26 episode although no ending credits included.
Spoiler
The 15GB that Google provides is filling up, so this will likely be deleted next week. The thumbnail is no spoiler.

Her Plus One was David Abbott, also a former ToC contestant.

Not just a former ToC contestant. A ToC winner! Too bad. :roll:
