Notes

For the Listener Bluff segment, the listener contestant chose Adam Felber's answer, which was correct.

Both Roxanne Roberts and Charlie Pierce started the Lightning Fill In The Blank segment with 2.5 points each. Their scores have been rounded up to the nearest whole numbers for the non-decimal score columns.

After all three panelists completed the Lightning Fill In The Blank segment, Peter Sagal said that he would only crown a champion if anyone could say the "double bubble gum bubbles double" tongue twister three times. None of the panelists could, thus Peter didn't crown a champion even if Roxanne finished in first.
