- Jeff claimed to be "just enough" of a musician to know the answer. He repeatedly pointed to the correct answer, going so far as to refer to it as "the one on the upper left hand corner" to avoid a precursor to the First Letter in English Alphabet incident. Said Meredith: "YEEEEEEEEEEEAH!"
- Jeff had absolutely no idea, so he elected to Switch the Question in favor of a different question with the same value. The correct answer was C: Herbert Hoover.
- Jeff used his last lifeline, 50:50, eliminating A and C. He had a 75-80% inkling that the correct answer was B, but D lingered presumably in a voice in his head. He locked in B as his final answer, making him a half millionaire. The klaxon called time once again and he would return on the following episode with $500,000 in his pocket, all out of lifelines.
- From 10 contestants, 3 got it right, but Jeff was the fastest to answer C-D-B-A, making it to the Hot Seat.
- Jeff had absolutely no idea, so he decided to walk away. The correct answer was A: Bod.
- Jeff would use his first lifeline, Ask the Audience . He wasn't confident in his poll numbers, so he used his next lifeline, Phone-A-Friend. His brother Todd, who "knows everything" at least according to Jeff, was 100% sure that the answer was Jane, which turned out to be the right answer. Said Jeff: "You rock!"
- The klaxon called time and Jeff would return with all three lifelines still available.
- Jeff had a slight inkling towards Cairo, noting that the Egyptians used to worship cats. He ultimately decided to walk away with $500,000. The correct answer was A: Baghdad.
