Episode Play-by-Play (Contains Spoilers)


Round 1: Medical Miracles or Nightmares

Rules:
Each contestant is given a bizarre historical “fact” about medicine. They simply guess if it’s true or false. Think “mouse paste” for toothaches and “farts in a jar” to ward off the plague!

Highlights:

  • Rachel correctly guessed that mashed mouse was really used in Egypt for toothaches (ew!).

  • Terrie was surprised to learn that sliced mouse for warts was actually a true remedy in England.

  • Sam nailed “mouse mustaches” for cleft lips as FALSE (thank goodness).

  • Bizarre facts included stuttering “cures” (cutting tongues!), healing tonics with coca leaves, and a “farts in a jar” defense against the Black Death.

  • Rachel and Sam came out with a slight lead into the next round.


Round 2: Connections

Rules:
Each player goes solo in the “hot seat.” Jeff asks four questions where the answers all tie together into one sports-related theme. If the player gets the connection right, they score a bonus point. Each “hot seat” ends with a rapid-fire “Name Five” challenge for an extra five points.

Rachel:
Her clues (block, dig, spike, serve) led her to the answer “volleyball.” She also aced the Name Five: Summer Olympic sports not played in winter.

Terrie:
Her answers (giant, cowboy, brown, bronco) led to “football,” and she had to name five cookies you wouldn’t want on pizza.

Sam:
Her clues (360, flip, grind, ollie) pointed toward “board sports/skateboarding,” and her Name Five: People names that are also dog names.

Scoreboard Update:
Rachel: 10
Terrie & Sam: 9


Round 3: Who/What/Where Am I? (Buzz-In Challenge)

Rules:
Jeff gives progressively specific clues to a person, place, thing, or event. Contestants “buzz in” with their personalized sounds. Buzz in early and get it right—score up to 3 points. Buzz early and miss—lose those points!

Memorable Moments:

  • Terrie scored for “whiskey” (bourbon) using clues like “51% corn.”

  • Willie Nelson and Texas Roadhouse made for a country music question.

  • Fastest finger Sam scored 3 points for “stingray” (Chevy Corvette inspiration).

  • Historical disasters, unicorn mammals (narwhal!), and Wikipedia stumped the crew and led to plenty of buzzer drama.

  • The final question left Rachel narrowly in the lead!

Final Scores:
Rachel: 12 (Winner!)
Terrie & Sam: Close behind
