Meredith wipes a smudge of her lipstick off Bridget's face even though Bridget says, "I don't mind." Bridget is also a graduate student in animal behavior. She spends more time with dogs than with humans and says she even prefers them. She hastens to say that she means no insult to Meredith.

PAF results
Bridget cuts the question short (leaving off the first part); before she gets very far Erin says, "I can't hear you." Bridget starts again, speaking more slowly and spelling Lascaux. She then reads the four choices. Erin says "animals." Bridget asks, "Are you sure?" Erin replies, "Lascaux cave paintings, animals...let me just think, what are the other choices?" but time runs out before she can say how sure she is.
Bridget goes with Erin's answer.

After reading the question Carmen says that she can narrow it down to A, The Kid. Bridget asks her what that was about, then asks, "Was that a Charlie Chaplin movie?"

"That's what I was thinking," Carmen answers. "Yes, it was a black and white Chaplin film." Carmen says her other choice would be B, The Three Muskateers. "The first one was a long, long time ago. But all I can do is narrow it down for you."
Bridget decides to gamble with the Double Dip.
DD results
Her first final answer is A - The Kid. That is incorrect. "I'm going to go with what I thought," Bridget says. "No disrespect to anyone." She makes D - Birth of a Nation her second final answer and this time she's correct.

Something I learned watching the Discovery Channel's Life After People is that the Lascaux paintings that the tourists see today are not the original. They are seeing a replica in a nearby cave. The originals were being damaged by all the carbon dioxide produced by tourists.

This contestant reminded me SO MUCH of a youngish teacher standing behind me in line at the Tampa auditions. I thought her perkitude and demeanor were so on target, so I was kind of sad for her that she didn't pass the test.

I love this question, for some reason.

Bridget says she thinks she knows it but she's nervous. Then she asks Meredith, "Do I know it?", to which Meredith replies, "I don't know. But you have to do what you believe; it's your money." Bridget goes for it rather than burning a lifeline.
Spoiler

IIRC, she even asked the audience (literally), "Do I know this?" to which the audience enthusiastically responded yes. Good for her for going with her gut, I can understand how being in that chair can suddenly make the doubt fairy pay you a visit.
$8000 - Used to refer to a computer's unique location in cyberspace, "IP address" is short for "Internet" what?

I thought this question was slightly easy for $25,000, but Bridget had a good PAF. This could have gone horribly wrong with the word "Lascaux" and whatnot.
Meredith says, "It's as if all the animals that love you sort of got together for this stack."
$50000 - Screened for President Woodrow Wilson, what was the first feature film ever shown at the White House?

Spoiler
D - The Birth of a Nation.
Oy, Carmen. I don't blame ya for not knowing a hardish question like this, but this is now the third time in 2 days that you narrow down the choices with a tinge of confidence in your voice, only to (almost) lead the contestants astray. It's ok if you don't know an answer, but no false hope, please!
$100000 - Before he was adopted by a British family, the kids' lit character Paddington Bear lived in Peru and had what name?
A - Pilar
B - Pascual
C - Paulo
D - Pastuso

She says that Pilar is a woman's name. After a few more seconds she decides she doesn't want to risk it and walks away.

D - Pastuso (24)
Ooh, thought I knew this and I didn't, although I would have had to use my first lifeline (maaaaaybe ATA, but most likely PAF after that).

So I'm going for $250k with either 2 or 3 lifelines.

Anyone who's read the latest installment in Jean Auel's Earth's Children series (starring Ayla and FlintDude) knows this one. That's how I knew it, anyway. I might guess animals based on the petroglyphs found here in the SW, but I don't know . . .

I'll ATE, but without much hope. I'm not double dipping. The last three all sound too likely. OK, I'm out the door with $50,000. Good stack.

Yikes. My bad. Yes the series is on the History Channel when they're not running Ice Road Truckers or that logger one. Discovery has Cash Cab.

She's a WE®. Bridget is what I call "annoyingly cheerful". She's got a "rah, rah" attitude that is probably the reason why she got the call. Also it seems that as the show reaches the end of the season they are just calling locals to be on.

At first I thought the PAF call was going to be a disaster - Bridget was talking fast and Erin couldn't catch what she was saying. Then she slowed down and gave Erin the chance to Google the answer (presumably, since she spelled "Lascaux" slowly and deliberately). Why Erin would have introduced a measure of doubt by her last comment baffles me.

Whose lipstick was being removed? Did Meredith give her a peck on the cheek as they came out, or was Bridget a little shaky when applying her own?

Would have loved this stack. Depending on my confidence level at the $50K level, I might have had all my LLs for the $100K. NAC there, so try the ATA first if still available, and go to the Googling PAF if not (or if ATA is inconclusive). "paddington bear peruvian name" on Google gets it in the blurb for the second hit.

IIRC, she even asked the audience (literally), "Do I know this?" to which the audience enthusiastically responded yes. Good for her for going with her gut, I can understand how being in that chair can suddenly make the doubt fairy pay you a visit.
Properly speaking, the audience should have kept quiet there. Getting that response from the audience was something of a fifth lifeline for her. (Even though she hadn't said what she was thinking, she could take that response as a "Yes, the obvious answer is correct and they're not trying to trick you.")

Bridget looks as if she's going to answer, but says, "I'm going to ask...I'm going to phone a friend," stopping the clock with 18 seconds remaining. On her PAF list are: Erin, from Brooklyn, NY; Rachael, from Orange, CT; and Dean, from Austin, TX. She opts to call Erin and "give her a heart attack."

[Reveal] Spoiler: PAF results
Bridget cuts the question short (leaving off the first part); before she gets very far Erin says, "I can't hear you." Bridget starts again, speaking more slowly and spelling Lascaux. She then reads the four choices. Erin says "animals." Bridget asks, "Are you sure?" Erin replies, "Lascaux cave paintings, animals...let me just think, what are the other choices?" but time runs out before she can say how sure she is.

Bridget goes with Erin's answer.

Anyone who's read the latest installment in Jean Auel's Earth's Children series (starring Ayla and FlintDude) knows this one. That's how I knew it, anyway. I might guess animals based on the petroglyphs found here in the SW, but I don't know . . .
Really? You never saw photos of the Lascaux cave paintings before reading The Shelters of Stone?

Back in the day when I was an extremely amateur philatelist one of my favorite sets of stamps were from France and the series depicted the Lascaux paintings.

Meredith wipes a smudge of her lipstick off Bridget's face even though Bridget says, "I don't mind."
Whose lipstick was being removed? Did Meredith give her a peck on the cheek as they came out, or was Bridget a little shaky when applying her own?
Just to clarify, Meredith gave Bridget a little buss on the cheek and evidently left some of her lipstick behind, and then tried to remove it.

I've probably seen them a number of times, Marley. I've seen cave painting photos just as I've seen Southwest U.S. pictograph photos my whole life. It's that geography connection that trips me up. Until Shelters of Stone, I knew from nothing about Lascaux.

I don't think you needed any of the details about Lascaux to immediately associate cave paintings with animals. Those other choices seemed pretty lame--cave men drawing pictures of trees and flowers? :P

I can easily imagine that -- maize is highly prevalent in Hopi artistic depictions, as are rain and rain clouds.

The preponderance of the evidence is for animals, and I almost certainly would have gone that way even without Auel. But for certain? I don't know...

One significant difference in your example: the Hopi had progressed beyond being hunter/gatherers to being an agricultural society. Ayla and Jondalar (despite being great innovators who had personally domesticated dogs, cats and horses, and invented the atlatl and the flint & steel method of firemaking) hadn't.

I'm sure Wilson enjoyed it immensely; he was a terrible racist.
I wouldn't want to be good at racism either.
That there was funny.
