(Barbara: What is the bicep?) (Bob: What are the triceps?) ... (Alex: Barbara was so close but she forgot the "S"--it's biceps, not bicep.) ... [Before the Double Jeopardy! Round, Alex announces a score correction:] (Alex: Double Jeopardy! coming in a moment, first let's see if I can remember, it hasn't happened in a long time, so let's see if I can remember how to make this explanation: We thought we had researched the bicep/biceps situation thoroughly; obviously, we haven't because Barbara said "bicep" and that is just as correct as "biceps", so she gets $400; she goes up to $2600. Now, whenever a contestant is ruled incorrect on a response that we later say is right, if any other players have subsequently rung in and given us an incorrect response, that response really doesn't exist, so Bob, who rang in with "triceps", gets his money back also, so he moves up to $2800, and that means that Michael is now low man on the totem pole, and he picks first in this round!)
