(Alex: Oh, Lorrie, this is very, very important for you. You've got $4,100 to invest in this Daily Double. It's for you alone. You're trailing our leader by $2,400 at the moment.)
(Lorrie: I'm going to give it the whole shot, Alex. Let's do $4,000.)
(Alex: $4,000!)
(Alex: The stuff--)
(Lorrie: Do or die, here.)
(Alex: Do or die. The stuff champions are made of.)
[NOTE: It appears that Lorrie's "whole shot" wager was clarified as meaning $4,100 between the Double Jeopardy! Round and the Final Jeopardy! Round, because her post-DJ! Round score was reported as $2,300, but her "correct" score was reported as $2,200 after the announcement of the prizes.]
