CONTESTANT INTERVIEWS
Alex: Ryan Hughey is from Indianapolis, and it says here your parents met playing Jeopardy! Were they contestants on the program?
Ryan: No, not exactly. They were both patients at a hospital. In the common areas, they would watch Jeopardy! together, and they bonded over that. And eventually, I'm here, so...
Alex: Who was better at playing Jeopardy!?
Ryan: Oh, I could never say that.
[Laughter]
Alex: Okay. So diplomatic.
Alex: Amy Servat from Houston, Texas. An English teacher who once got stranded in a small town. What were the circumstances?
Amy: We threw a rod, and we ended up in a town called Salida, Colorado. Salida is "exit" in Spanish. And you have to buy a car to get out. There's no other way.
Alex: Really.
Amy: They have one stoplight and three car dealerships.
Alex: Three car dealerships? Okay. Good for you.
Alex: Austin Rogers, our champion. A 5-day champion with close to $200,000. You have developed a lot of fans in the five days you've been with us, and a lot of them are wondering, "Where did you get to be so smart?"
Austin: Genetics, luck, karma.
Alex: School? No?
Austin: School? Nah. Psh--
[Laughter]
Alex: Okay.
