He already says the answer before the timer, but Pat has him wait so we can build tension.
"Ah! Time's up!" only a second in. But he obviously solves GOOD JUDGMENT...
...so let's just give him the BMW X3 SUV worth $34,445! Sam leaves with an impressive total of $49,695 in cash and prizes!
In the post-game chat, Pat admits he misspells the word judgment all the time, because judge has an E at the end, and Pat always leaves it in there. "It takes a big man to admit he's wrong."
