Annett's daughter Jasmine told her the advice "Sometimes you have to risk it to get a biscuit"

This set Cedric off on a series of takeoffs on this phrase.

Question 4 - Miss Mobile Home
At the 2013 Miss America Pageant, who said she's "from the state where 20% of our homes are mobile, because that's how we roll"?
A. Miss Alabama B. Miss Florida
C. Miss Louisiana D. Miss South Carolina

JTQ 1

Annett decided to jump it. She said mobile homes are all over the place. When given the right answer, she said she was not even thinking about that.

Answer and value

D. Miss South Carolina
Value: $25K jumped
Bank: $7500

This would also be a JTQ for me. I wondered if "mobile" might be a clue leading to Miss Alabama, but thought better of the notion.

Question 6 - Feel-Good Fizzles
When it was first introduced in 1929, what soft drink contained the mood-altering drug lithium and was marketed as a hangover cure?
A. Dr Pepper B. Mountain Dew
C. Orange Crush D. 7up

JTQ 2

Answer and value

D. 7up
Value: $100 jumped

Dr. Pepper is older than that, and Mountain Dew is younger than that. Given that the "up" in "7Up" could refer to recovering from a hangover, I'd have gone with that. Turns out that Orange Crush was introduced in 1916.

Question 11 - $100K
Who was Joseph G. Cannon, the man who appeared in 1923 on the 1st-ever cover of Time magazine?
A. Illinois congressman B. U.S. Supreme Court justice
C. Boston mayor D. Virginia governor

Spoiler

Answer

A. Illinois congressman

I believe I'll use my 2nd JTQ. According to Wikipedia he was one of the most powerful Speakers of the House and one of the longest-serving Congressional representatives. He was featured on the cover of Time on the last day of his last term in office.

Just like he's been going on and on about the extra money they're giving contestants during "Double Money Week". I've been waiting for him to finish with some truth in advertising:

We pay you once, then we pay you again...but if you're fortunate enough to answer a question in the upper tier--even if you give an incorrect answer--we're taking all that bonus money back again!
