Final Jeopardy! Round responses

SHAKESPEARE
(Alex: This is one of those Final Jeopardy! clues that either you get immediately, or you drive yourself crazy trying to come up with the correct response. And poor Elaine I don't think wrote anything down, but let's take a look.)
...
(Alex: I assume you were going for All's Well That Ends Well, but that didn't work out.)
(George: I gave up.)
(Alex: Yeah, you gave up, and with good reason.)
...
(Alex: And now it makes so much sense, doesn't it, players? Let's take a look at your wager. $801, Eric, and that means you wind up with $9,601, but you're the only player with money, so you're the semifinalist who'll return next week. And thanks to our other players for a good game. We'll say goodbye. The fourth of our quarterfinal games tomorrow right here on Jeopardy! See you then.)
