Dave closes out the second played category of Classical Music by having the Daily Double pop up w/ $2,600, followed by Marjorie at a grand & Austin w/ eight bills. The champ goes for this clue's face value:
In 1696, John Blow, a great British composer of this musical era, wrote an ode on the death of another, Henry Purcell.
"What is the Baroque era?"...that turns his 26 $100 bills into 36. He now has 4,800 bucks at the break, while Marjorie's stopped on $1,800.

UNATTEMPTED LACH TRASH: $1,400 ($600 & $800 clues in the same category)

Right after the 1-Word Film Quotes, Austin ($5,800 at this moment) goes DD Hunting w/ the $1,600 clue on The League of Nations (its $1,200 & $2K spots are still left)...but David says "Zeus Your Daddy" at the right time, the $1,200 screen, w/ $10,800. He has a $2,600 advantage over Austin, while Majorie's deep in last place w/ $1,200. Dave goes for an extra $2.5K:
Honey, it's twins! These two guys were often called the Dioscuri, meaning "The Sons of Zeus" (but one may have had another dad).
"Who are Castor & Pollux?"...those were the men to up David to $12,800! Austin later tries again on the DDH...but Majorie finds it on the $1,200 clue that FL Obama's about to read w/ $1,600; Austin's now at $9,400 & Dave's still sitting pretty at $20,900. Majorie attempts a $2,400 doubler:
Speaking on opening night of the '08 Democratic (National) Convention, I noted that our meeting marked the 88th anniversary of women's suffrage & the 45th of this immortal & profoundly American speech.
She doesn't quite know MLK's "I Have a Dream" speech...& ZEROES OUT.
