Contestants Kristen Ramsey, Conner Huey, and Bryce Wargin appeared on Jeopardy! April 1, 2025. Bryce quickly set his dominance in Jeopardy! round, where the game started with a competitive beginning.

His early lead was aided by his knowledge of several subjects, including Film Cameos and The Old West. Though there were some small issues—like Conner's missed Daily Double—Bryce kept a good position all through the game.


Jeopardy! round

The Jeopardy! round had six categories: The Old West, All Pauls, Mascot Mania, Film Cameos, Words Within Words, and Something To Sneeze At.

After the first 15 clues, Bryce was the only plus-side competitor; Kristen and Conner both battled early on. While Kristen and Conner had fewer correct responses, Bryce got nine right. Bryce had $6,200 at the first break, Kristen was at -$400, and Conner was in negative territory with -$800.

Bryce kept shining after the break, correctly responding to seven more hints. Kristen also managed to answer six more, but Conner's performance stayed erratic. The scores following the Jeopardy! round were as follows:

  • Bryce: $9,200
  • Kristen: $3,000
  • Conner: -$600

Despite Conner's challenges, Kristen managed to stay in the game. However, Bryce’s commanding lead made it difficult for his competitors to catch up.


Double Jeopardy round

The Double Jeopardy round was filled with even more intriguing categories, including Geograph"E", New To The OED, Biology, I Don’t Feel Seen, Songs From The Hit Album, and A Little Cause Play. Early in the round, Bryce discovered both Daily Doubles and took full advantage of them. Though he divided the Daily Doubles, he still accumulated sufficient right responses to sail through the round.
