Notes

All 3 choices for the third Not My Job question were lyrics from Rick Astley's "Never Gonna Give You Up" as a way to rickroll Nick Kroll. Nick chose "B", but was given the point; as none of the 3 choices were correct (possibly a show first).

Negin Farsad mixed things up by having Peter Grosz, with 3 points, start the Lightning Fill-in-the-Blank segment instead of either Shane O'Neill or Amy Dickinson, each having 2 points. Normally the panelist with the lowest score entering the segment would start (or chosen in case of a tie).

Peter Grosz answered "vibe" for his sixth Not My Job question. The correct answer was "water" but Negin gave him credit for the answer. Shane O'Neill was only credited for 4 correct answers for 8 additional points and a total of 10. Shane had answered 5 correct with their corresponding bell dings and confirmations from Negin. If Shane had gotten credit for all 5, he would have tied Amy Dickinson for 2nd place instead of finishing in 3rd place.
