The premise
Here’s the bit.
Ken Jennings resumes Jeopardy with Lucas in the lead, Cynthia close behind and Duke deep in negative territory. Duke keeps buzzing in with the right information but loses points because he cannot turn it into a question. Jennings tries explanations, encouragement and increasingly desperate hints while the other contestants collect the points.
The confusion grows when a clue already contains a question and Duke tries to answer it literally. Jennings finally gives him a Daily Double and accepts an impossible million-dollar wager. Puzzling over a clue about a British band, Duke accidentally lands on the required question, wins the game and leaves Jennings facing his return as champion.

Duke
Hey, man, I'm just happy to be playing a game.
- 00:36
Ken Jennings
All right. That's the spirit. Now, I know you had a little trouble in the last round, Duke, but we're ready to turn things around, right?
- 00:43
Duke
We sure are.

That's correct. Now, Duke, do we understand where we went wrong?
- 01:12
Duke
No.
- 01:14
Ken Jennings
Well, Duke, as you did for the entirety of the first round, you did not phrase the answer in the form of a question.
- 01:20
Duke
I'm sorry. I-I just got too excited.
- 01:24
Ken Jennings
It's okay. Luck Ass, the board is yours.

- 02:00
Duke
Who is that?
- 02:03
Ken Jennings
See, that is a question, but, uh, you also need to say who it is, but...
- 02:09
Duke
It's... it's Prince.
- 02:11
Ken Jennings
Okay, we're getting close. You said, who is that? And you said Prince. So just push those together, and you get...
- 02:19
Duke
That is Prince.
- 02:22

- 02:54
Ken Jennings
Really need your final answer.
- 02:57
Duke
I got it, I got it. Perhaps the dog Walker did.
- 03:01
Ken Jennings
How did we get there? Luck asks...
- 03:08
Lucas (Luck Ass)
Uh, what is who let the dogs out? And I think I can follow Duke's logic since the answer was already a question. He answered that question in the form of an answer. Who let the dogs out? Perhaps the dog walker did.
- 03:27
Ken Jennings
Astonishing. Is that your thought process, Duke?
- 03:30
Duke
Not even close.
- 03:33
