And he leaves all three lifelines on the table. Ouch.

I didn't know it was a cross of those other three, but the Ugli fruit was the only one of those names I'd heard of. Jamal apparently hadn't heard of any of them, so he picked what seemed like a logical name.

I would have liked to see his grandfather get his turn as a Plus One.

So far, so good.
