"You’re now a familiar face on TV Isaac," Ken Jennings said, "But I understand your car was famous before you were."

Isaac laughed before saying: "Absolutely. So living in LA, you get some weird opportunities and my car got booked to appear on Brooklyn Nine-Nine, the sitcom."

He added: "I was not booked to appear. I don’t appear on the sitcom at all but you can see my car very clearly and people from my hometown messaged me, ‘We saw your car!’ So I'm basically famous."

Ken asked: "Was your car good in the part?" Isaac responded: "Yeah it looked suitably beat up and old, which it is."

The game then continued with Isaac leading at $5,800, Sarah trailed with $2,400, and Alex had yet to get on the board. Going into Double Jeopardy, Isaac still had the lead with $7,000, Sarah had $3,000 and Alex had $400.

Then going into Final Jeopardy Isaac had a huge lead with $26,200, Sarah had $5,000 and Alex had $1,600. The Final Jeopardy clue was a tough one, asking for three of the four official languages of Aruba.

Isaac and Sarah only got two, not enough for points, and Alex got them all. Even though he didn't get Final Jeopardy right, Isaac won with $22,200 and now has a three-day total with $70,186.

During his first game, Isaac shared that his father was on Jeopardy! in the 80s, but didn't win. It was also revealed that Isaac previously competed on The Chase as well.
