After a shaky start, Meghan played better, making good use of her lifelines and knowing when to quit. The $16K could make a big difference in her life.
I would have guessed "Beauty School Dropout" on the last question and left with $1K.

I've never seen the Broadway version of "Grease", but I knew that "Hopelessly Devoted to You" was written specifically for Olivia Newton-John. Plus, that song was nominated for a Best Original Song Oscar, so it couldn't possibly have been in the original Broadway production.

I've never heard this term - "gas giants", yes, but not "ice giants". Still, the choice seems obvious.BBTranscriptTeam wrote:$16,000

In the comfort of my recliner I guessed the right answer, but in the HS would have had to use a lifeline, probably ATA, although I'm not confident the audience would know this.BBTranscriptTeam wrote:$25,000
