Erin wasn't sure, so she decided to ask the audience. 61% of the audience said that it was C: Harp. Not entirely convinced, she used her 50:50, which left her with Lute and Harp. She was leaning more towards Harp, but she decided to phone her friend to confirm, and he said that the answer was Lute. She decided to go with him, and he turned out to be correct, earning her $300.
This marks a rare occasion where the majority of the audience got a question in the first tier wrong, and an even rarer occasion where the contestant didn't go with the audience and instead went for the correct answer.

Erin initially had no idea, but Eddie advised her to see if she could eliminate any of the potential answers. She immediately ruled out B and C, and then figured that Pelvic fins would be closer to the middle. By process of elimination, she answered D, and reached the $32,000 milestone.
