$500 (6 of 14) - Not Timed
Used in ancient times as an aphrodisiac, the root of what plant was said to look like a person and shriek when pulled from the ground?
⬥ A: Mandrake ⬥ B: Guydrangea
⬥ C: Broregano ⬥ D: Lavendude
Amanda says she knows this one from movies - it's a major plot point and it shrieks.
? (7 of 14) - Not Timed
Although they sound like automobile names, "Infinity," "Escape," and "Frontiers" are all albums by what '80s band?
⬥ A: Foreigner ⬥ B: Journey
⬥ C: Styx ⬥ D: Def Leppard
Amanda says she was born in 1984 so she's not old enough to have been aware of any of them. It's a shame she doesn't have any lifelines but it would be a crime to blow all that money on a guess. She decides to walk away. The correct answer was Journey.

Total Winnings: $17,750
