Andy’s Thoughts:
- The show’s original tie rule was in effect for this episode; co-champions were still permitted. Thus, $0 was the best bet for Chuck to make in Final Jeopardy (and Susan should have bet everything.)
- Linda received a White-Westinghouse SpaceSave laundry pair and Jules Jurgensen his & hers diamond watches; Susan received a package of 9 Waring kitchen appliances.
