March 21, 2022 Recap

Season 39, Episode #7561

Airdate: March 21, 2022

From the Sony Studios, it's College Week!

...which Pat confuses with Collage Week in the opening.


*Ding!*



Pierce has been TAKING LOTS OF NOTES on how to play.


From the start of the collegiate clashes:
Pierce Wollan represents Cal Poly SLO, and is from San Diego. She's a senior studying business administration with a concentration in marketing. She's the older twin (by an hour and two minutes), but she didn't know it until she was 11.
Tatiana Carter represents Howard, and is from Cincinnati. She's a double major, a double minor, and double jointed. She's a junior double majoring in biology and human performances, double minoring in Latin and chemistry, and double jointed in her arms.
Patrick Mehler represents Cornell, and is from Yonkers, NY. He's a junior studying industrial labor relations with minors in leadership, law and society, and inequality studies. He was inspired by his union parents to go down that path. He also helps with Cornell Votes, an organization that gets students voting in major elections.


*Ding!*



YALE UNIVERSITY fits, Tatiana, it's just a shame it's not the one they were looking for. *Ding!*

Man, I personally had Yale, then RICE UNIVERISTY, but Patrick shows that's also wrong.

*Ding!*
 

Pierce ends the round with DUKE UNIVERSITY.

RSTLNE gives him:


CPGA H gives a little help.


He unfortunately overcomplicates it. He goes straight for some poison letters (XYZJKV), and tries words like JELLO, BELLUM, LASHES, PULSES, but is nowhere near YELLOW DAISIES for $39,000. He's already won $51,740, so I don't feel that bad though.

In the Pat Chat, they talk about Maggie and how she does interviews with the winners.
