Notes

Peter had to apologize about mixing up which came first in the previous show, the Slanket or the Snuggie.

Peter Sagal said that 3 meters is close to 12 feet in amazement of Tom's lucky guess in answering the last Lightning Fill In The Blank question. 3 meters is actually close to 10 feet, whereas 4 meters would be closer to 12 feet. I know, I am being a bit pedantic.
