Final Jeopardy! Round responses

FAMOUS EUROPEANS
(Alex: And Steven Spielberg made a great film about this man's list.)
(Julia: [Whispering to herself] Oh.)
(Alex: Let's go to Julia first. She had $9,000 and she struggled with this, but she's smiling. Why? "Who is Himmler?")
[Julia chuckles.]
(Alex: Okay, I don't think Yad Vashem...)
(Julia: [Shaking her head] No, no.)
(Alex: ...would've named Himmler a righteous gentile.)
[Laughter]
(Alex: So it'll cost you $8,000, but we thank you for the humor.)
...
(Alex: [To Jim] Jim, did you get [*]?)
[Jim nods.]
(Alex: You've got [*], and that's enough. Eh, you made some gutsy wagers on double--uh, on Daily Doubles, and it paid off, and you're gonna be our finalist. Come on over here. A well-played game, and as I said, those gutsy moves, those wagers that really paid off. Here are your two opponents that you'll be facing starting tomorrow...)
(Trevor: Trevor Walker, Massachusetts Institute of Technology.)
(Kristen: Kristen Jolley, Georgia Institute of Technology.)
