Rebecca doesn't think it's kitchenware. It could be ski apparel but she doesn't ski. She decides to call Rick, a friend of her fiance. She reads the question, then spells "Tumi". Rick asks for the answers to be read again, then says, "kitchenware". Rebecca asks how sure he is and he says he's pretty sure,
"because Tumi is a Peruvian god..." at which point the time runs out. Rebecca knew that Tumi was a Peruvian god. She doesn't think he sounds too sure. Meredith reminds her that if she misses she'll drop back to $1K. She also reminds Rebecca that that was the one thing she knew it wasn't. Rebecca says she could be wrong and adds that the show may get a lot of calls from the Tumi people. Finally she says that $8K will pay for a lot of nursing school and decides to walk away with that amount.

I can not figure out how come this would be difficult. Even if you don't know that 2008 is a leap year, you gotta know the other months have either 30 or 31 days and that the month will not start and end on the same day.BBTranscriptTeam wrote:Rebecca Loza

First off - if you travel for business - Tumi is the luggage to have.BBTranscriptTeam wrote:Rebecca Loza

Secondly - The PaF did not need to know the whole thing about the god - they just needed to be asked what Tumi makes. Bad use of PaF.

Our "friend" SOX404 would have a field day with this comment.BBTranscriptTeam wrote:$2K - Celebrating the fortieth anniversary of the "Summer of Love" in 2007 the Haight-Ashbury Street Fair is held annually in what city?
A - Atlanta
B - Seattle

Rebecca was thinking San Francisco but just needed a little encouragement.
It almost seemed as if Meredith was trying to give Rebecca the answer by stressing the year.BBTranscriptTeam wrote:$4K - In 2008, what is the only month that will begin and end on the same day of the week?

B - April

That seems awfully low for a year of tuition.BBTranscriptTeam wrote:Meredith asks how much tuition is. Rebecca says $4K will just about cover one year.
Lifeline time for me, because I've never heard of Olivia. ATA and hope the audience has.BBTranscriptTeam wrote:$8K - A popular children's book character introduced in 2000, Olivia is a headstrong young what?

B - goldfish

Time for lifeline #2. I would have ruled out kitchenware also, but any of the other three could be plausible, so it's time to PAF, figuring it would be an easy Google search.BBTranscriptTeam wrote:$16K - Named after a Peruvian god, the brand Tumi is best known for its high-end line of what?

B - kitchenware
C - ski apparel
D - luggage
This was a pretty tough stack, IMO.

It is an essential part of the clue, in this case. But they could also have said "in 2008, 2012, 2016..." which would have been a stronger clue about why this is so.earendel wrote:It almost seemed as if Meredith was trying to give Rebecca the answer by stressing the year.BBTranscriptTeam wrote:$4K - In 2008, what is the only month that will begin and end on the same day of the week?

Otherwise, a bad stack for me. I'd need lifelines for Olivia and Tumi.

So is Tumi the Peruvian god of luggage?BBTranscriptTeam wrote: $16K - Named after a Peruvian god, the brand Tumi is best known for its high-end line of what?

B - kitchenware
C - ski apparel
D - luggage
Wikipedia doesn't call Tumi a god at all, but a type of sacrificial ceremonial knife.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tumi
Not a llama!In Andean mythology, the Moche, Chimu and Incas were descendants of the Sun, and had to be worshipped annually with an extravagant celebration. The festival took place at the end of the potato and maize harvest in order to thank the Sun for the abundant crops or to ask for better crops during the next season. During this important religious ceremony, the High Priest would sacrifice a completely black or white llama.

According to their entry on the Tumi business, the proper name for the deity on a Tumi knife is "Ñaymlap".MarleysGh0st wrote: Wikipedia doesn't call Tumi a god at all, but a type of sacrificial ceremonial knife.
I can see how that would be a bit awkward to use as a brand name.
