Something about her told me that she wouldn't get this right even before the question was shown. As it was, I was astounded that she didn't connect "1492" with "Columbus".

You would think that someone who professionally studies the universe would have a good understanding of science history - especially that of Columbus. Oh, she's a Cosmetologist...

This one blew my mind.

Did she just go with a random guess, or did she have a reason for thinking Brett Ratner?

One Question Contestants do not have to pass the written test. So what do you think the answer to your question is, Jeemie?

In case you didn't see the episode, there's one detail missing from this transcript: Jennifer also asked if she could use a lifeline.
