GETTING DRESSED
Ryan goes Daily Double Hunting immediately w/ the $400 clue on The Planets...nothing yet even w/ that boy also employing the High School Strategy, but he has $2,400 & is $1K behind Injee for the early lead; Arjun currently has $2K (shortly after the first break, his incorrect response on the $800 Getting Dressed answer was reversed).
After Arjun got the good news, he picks off the DD in the center of The Planets & is tied w/ Ryan for second place; Injee's added a grand to her leading score ($4,400). Arjun goes for the tie:
The Greeks called this planet Ares.
"What is Mars?"...yes! At the end of that tight J! Round, Arjun has $6K & is $200 over Injee & $600 over Ryan.
SOLE ATTEMPTED TS: $400 (Hiding Places)

MEASURE FOR MEASURE
SAY GOODBYE
AMERICAN HISTORY
THE WIZARDING WORLD OF HARRY POTTER (Clue Crew clues from said attraction at Universal Orlando by Sarah Whitcomb)
Ryan continues to use the HSS, this time leading off w/ American History...but Injee gets the one within that topic in the center screen w/ $9,400; she's $3K ahead of Arjun & $3,200 ahead of Ryan. She makes this a $2K clue:
This Pioneer route stretched more than 2K miles from Missouri Northwest to near the Pacific Ocean.
"What is The Oregon Trail?"...a computer game was based on it & she aced it to break the five-figure mark at $11,400! And Say Goodbye to the last remaining DD in this game...because Ryan's hunting finally pays off at the $800 Measure for Measure answer! At $11,800, he has a $400 advantage over Injee, while Arjun's slipped to $5,200. Also for an extra $2K, here's the clue:
Number of karats in pure gold.
"What is 24?" is good enough to up his bank to $13,800! Even after all of those are gone, he's still using the HSS for the time being.

BUST
Injee has "What is Toys R Us?" to fill her bank all the way up to $29,900...& is the winner! Ryan misses out on $38K by writing of all companies, Dunkin' Donuts, down. If this had been a TS, Arjun actually had a chance to win if he hadn't bet too much.
