Although the listener contestant for the Who's Bill This Time? segment only answered two out of three questions correct, Bill Kurtis gave all three points; in part, due to the answer provided for the third question.
Natasha Rothwell originally chose "C" for the third Not My Job question, then changed her answer to "A" after Peter Sagal explained the premise to Natasha. She ended up changing her answer to "B". When Peter asked Bill how Natasha did, Bill said "3 and 0!" even though Natasha only answered two questions correct. The exception has been noted.

While explaining the answer for the first Not My Job question, Peter Sagal said that Rod Stewart and his band was also banned from the same hotel chain as The Who's Keith Moon (which was the premise of the first Not My Job question). Peter then explain how they got around the ban by checking in as Fleetwood Mac. By doing so, Peter gave away the answer for the second Not My Job question. Peter then said that it was the first time that he accidentally gave away the answer to a following Not My Job question.
Something similar happened when Mark Bittman was the Not My Job guest back on 2013-04-13 with questions about the movie "Batman & Robin". Before Peter could ask Mark the first question, Faith Salie asked if that was the movie where Batman had nipples on his suit. That turned out to be the correct answer for the first question.
Another instance in which "C" was the correct answer for all three Not My Job questions.

For the second Not My Job question, the audience seemed mixed between "B" and "C", but were more confident with "B" for the third question.
Another instance where all three panelists started Lightning Fill-in-the-Blank in a three-way tie.
