They replay Barbara's reaction to winning $25,000 on yesterday's show: a primal scream. Meredith reminds us that Barbara shares her name with the actress from "I Dream of Jeannie" (and that her ringtone is the theme to that show), that she was flooded by pipes breaking and that she needs the money.

Barbara has won $25,000 and has no lifelines left. Her category tree:

The Breeders
The First Time
Copyrights
Facts About Myths
What a Bargain!
(The Need for Speed)
(Same Name)
(Rocking Out)
(Who Goes There?)
(In Memoriam)
(Sesame Street)
(Mary, Mary)
(In the News)
(All Mixed Up)
(When Animals Attack)

$50,000 (What a Bargain!): Which of these U.S. states was not formed at least in part from land bought during the Louisiana Purchase?
A. Minnesota B. Arkansas
C. Colorado D. Illinois

Anyone else think she looks like Laine Kazan?

Trying to visualize the territory included in the Louisiana Purchase I couldn't decide whether it was Minnesota or Illinois. Time to DD and make those my final answers.
