Final Jeopardy! Round responses

INVENTED WORDS
(Alex: Bruce, we come to you first. You have a good poker face. I can't tell if you feel good or bad about this. "What is [*]?" "'Twas [*] and the slithy toves did gyre and gimble in the wabe." You are right. Your wager, sir. Nothing. Interesting, leaving you with $8,400. Let's go down there to Michael Daunt. He wrote down his response quickly. He wrote down the correct response. His wager... $6,801, taking him into the lead with $22,801.)
(Bob: "All mimsy were the borogoves, and the mome raths outgrabe. And as in uffish thought I stood, the Jabberwock, with eyes of flame, came whiffling through the tulgey wood, and burbled as it came!" And I wrote down "teatime".)
(Alex: Well, that's the way it goes, Bob. $2,200. You're gonna wind up with $10,000. And Bruce will wind up with $10,000. But Michael Daunt, with $22,801, will get to play again. Oh, sometimes the magic works and sometimes it doesn't. Join us on our next show, folks. So long.)
