Wow, what an example of the power of leading an audience! Johanna was lucky to be dissuaded from her hunch by that second place spike.

Interesting that they had a carryover start a special promotion week. So of course it had to be the last question in her stack since it was the only one left.

I wouldn't be able to eliminate any of these for certain, so since I would have had a JTQ, I'd use it.
