(Alex: Okay. She's written down something. We're not going to give you the full time limit. As soon as I revealed the answer, there was a big murmur in the audience, and everyone went for their pockets, I think, to pull out some change. When we have just one player in Final Jeopardy!, ladies and gentlemen, we reverse the procedure. We're going to show up how much Beryl risked in this category, first of all.)
