It was a video clue and he seems to have difficulty seeing those? The camera always cuts back to him trying to lean his way closer to the screen showing the graphic...
I've always wondered that about being on the show. Is it as easy to read the clues off the screen in person as it is watching from home, or are the contestants more dependent on hearing the host's reading?
It depends on a person's distance viewing. It's a separate monitor and it's not like at home with the image filling the whole screen. For a regular clue there have been some contestants caught off guard that the clue does not fill up the whole board like it home seeing it on a full screen. It's just the one clue box with the clue.

Another theory in jest: Matt blanked on thinking of the word calumet?
