Summary: Tonight's returning contestant was John Christensen. He reached $4,000 last time with 2 lifelines intact (PAF, 50:50). He made $16,000 with no problems but hit a roadblock on his $32,000 question asking what element makes up the largest percentage of the Earth's atmosphere (Nitrogen). He used his PAF, who guesses either carbon or hydrogen.Tonight's returning contestant was John Christensen. He reached $4,000 last time with 2 lifelines intact (PAF, 50:50). He made $16,000 with no problems but hit a roadblock on his $32,000 question asking what element makes up the largest percentage of the Earth's atmosphere (Nitrogen). He used his PAF, who guesses either carbon or hydrogen. John then did 50:50, which in fact [b]eliminated[/b] carbon and hydrogen. It left oxygen and nitrogen. So John decided to leave with $16,000.

Next in the hot seat was Joel McElvain. He made $32,000 without a problem but was pretty sure he knew his $64,000 question about the number of whole tones that make up an octave (Six). He answered eight but fell short.

Next up was Jeff Siehl. He cruised to $8,000 smoothly but needed a 50:50 on his $16,000 asking what what river the Hoover Dam was on (Colorado River). He answered correctly. He then made $64,000 with no problems. But on his $125,000 question asking how many arms a squid has including tentacles (Ten), he used his remaining lifelines. His PAF guessed ten and the audience guessed the same but with only 39% of a majority. Still unconvinced, Jeff decided to walk away. It turns out everyone was right! Oh well.
Due to a lack of time, Joel Winkelsas could only reach $200 before time ran out. But he carried over next show.
