Biblical Jeopardy


--Marce: I´ll take Bible Studies for a $100, Alex.
--Alex Trebek: Virginal woman known as Mary.
--Marce: Who is Mary Poppins?
--Alex Trebek: No, the correct question would be "Who is Mary, mother of Jesus"? Let me remind you that the answers given in this category bear strict relation to The Bible.
--Marce: Upps, my bad. Let me try something I rock at. Art for $1,000, s'il te plait, Alex.
--Alex Trebek: He's famous for his ear.
--Marce: I know, I know. Who is Dumbo?
--Alex Trebek: Wrong, again. The question we were going after was "Who is Van Gogh". Remember that the category is Art, not animated Disney films.
--Marce: Gotcha! And speakin' of film, I'm truly an encyclopedia of cinema. Let's try our hand at Movie Blockbusters for $600, Alex.
--Alex Trebek: This film introduced the concept of The Force.
--Marce: Me, me, me. I know it. Who is Newton?
[Alex bangs hand on the head]
--Alex Trebek: NO!!!! The question would be, "What is Star Wars." That leads us to the final clue of the game: Famous Opening Lines in Literary Works for $1,000. This book begins with a warning about a ghost haunting Europe...
Marce: Ha! I actually know this one. What is Ghostbusters. D@mn it, I'm good.
Alex Trebek: [Voice breaking in despair] Actually, we were going for The Communist Manifest, but we are going to give you credit on that one. Unfortunately, your score is - $10,000, so you will not be advancing to Final Jeopardy. But it was a pleasure having you with us.
Marce: Thank you, Alex. This has been a marvelous experience. When I get back to Costa Rica I'll invite all my Costa Rican friends to come on the show...
Alex Trebek: Security, could you please escort this woman out of the building?
