[Warning: The following post contains MAJOR spoilers for the Tuesday, September 9, episode of Jeopardy!<\/i>]<\/strong><\/p>\n Jonathan Hugendubler<\/a> returned for his third Jeopardy!<\/em><\/a> game on Tuesday, September 9, a true nail-biter that came down to the final question.<\/p>\n Hugendubler faced off against Ian Morrison from Aurora, Colorado, and Stacy Shelly from Rockford, Illinois. Hugendubler, from Baltimore, Maryland, was attempting to add to his two-day total<\/a> of $63,601.<\/p>\n The game started well for him as he answered the first three clues correctly. He found the Daily Double on clue four and wagered all of his $1,600.<\/p>\n In \u201cBody Parts Everywhere,\u201d the clue read, \u201cAt the end of an 1831 novel, his skeleton is found in a cellar with a curved spine and soon crumbles into dust.\u201d Hugendubler, a trivia host, hesitated, which prompted host Ken Jennings<\/a> to encourage him to answer. \u201cWho is Long John Silver?\u201d Hugendubler answered incorrectly, dropping down to $0. The correct response was Quasimodo.<\/p>\n After that, Morrison, an airline ramp agent, and Shelly, an attorney, both answered clues, leaving Hugendubler at $0. However, he answered the last three clues before the commercial break, bringing him to second place with $1,800.<\/p>\n The rest of the round was a battle for first place, but Hugendubler came out on top with $4,000. Morrison was in second with $3,200. Shelly had $2,800. Right before Morrison selected the last clue, he said, \u201cBring it,\u201d a classic line from Jeopardy!<\/em> champion Sam Buttrey<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u201cI couldn\u2019t help but say \u2018Bring it,\u2019 for that last clue in DJ! Sorry, everyone!\u201d he wrote on Reddit<\/a>. after the show.<\/p>\n \u201cI am not in the hating \u2018Bring it\u2019 crowd! Congrats,\u201d a fan replied.<\/p>\n In Double Jeopardy, Hugendubler plowed ahead. By the time he found the first Daily Double of the round, he had $15,200. He wagered $5,200 in \u201c18th Century Notables.\u201d The clue was \u201cThis archduchess & empress led Austria through the Seven Years\u2019 War & was the mother of Marie Antoinette.\u201d The adjunct music professor answered, \u201cWho is Mother Theresa?\u201d giving him a total of $20,400.<\/p>\n After the DD, Shelly ran the category \u201cNew Yorkers Head South\u201d and moved to second place with $7,600. Morrison then found the last DD a few clues later. With $5,600 in his bank, he wagered $3,000.<\/p>\n In \u201cI\u2019m Getting Crafy in My Old Age,\u201d the clue read, \u201cWhen I hear this word, I no longer think soup but \u2018pottery that\u2019s been fired once in a kiln & hasn\u2019t been glazed.’\u201d He correctly answered, \u201cWhat is bisque?\u201d and moved into second place with $8,600.<\/p>\n By the end of the round, Hugendubler still led with $21,200, but his opponents weren\u2019t too far behind. Morrison had $14,600. Shelly was in third with $10,800.<\/p>\n Hugendubler seemed like the clear winner, but Final Jeopardy can change everything. The category was \u201cClassic Rock & Classic Films.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cIn 1976, Groucho Marx sent this band a telegram congratulating them on their \u2018sage choice\u2019 in album titles\u201d was the clue. The correct response was \u201cWho is Queen?\u201d which only one contestant got right.<\/p>\n Shelly answered, \u201cWho is Led?\u201d She wagered $2,401, dropping down to $8,399. Morrison did get it right and wagered $7,409. This made his total $22,009, currently higher than Hugendubler\u2019s. The reigning champion\u2019s response was \u201cWho is Led Zeppelin<\/a>?\u201d He wagered $8,001, making his total $13,199. Hugendubler lost, and Morrison became the new champion.
