Comedian Heather McMahan is the first semifinalist
we introduced tonight.
Now, you're down a little bit early, Heather,
but you've come back before on "Jeopardy!" I sure have.
In your first game, you were in second place
down pretty big to Cynthia Nixon going into the final... Okay.
...and you got it right.
Like, you -- you kept a cool head.
I like to surprise people. You know what I mean?
I'm playing it cool right now.
You know, it's a psychological game.
But at the end, I will prove to everyone
that I am the smartest one here.
You were thinking, "I'm going to let Rachel get 10 in a row"?
I did. I thought that, yeah.
So she gets cocky.
That builds, yeah, a false sense of confidence.
You know what I mean? But I --
I can feel some pop-culture questions coming up.
I'm ready. I like your plan.
Remind us which charity you're playing for tonight.
I'm playing for the City of Refuge,
which is an incredible organization
out of my hometown in Atlanta, Georgia.
And the City of Refuge helps people in crisis
get back on their feet with job training, housing,
and basic needs to help them get through their day-to-day life.
And I love to be a part of that organization,
and I love to give back to my hometown.
Wonderful. Thanks for representing Atlanta...
Thank you. ...and for being here tonight.

Mo Rocca, in your quarterfinal game,
you were willing to take big risks.
You made two big Daily Double wagers
that helped ice that game.
Are you going to be able to do that tonight?
Well, I mean, I love living on the edge.
So -- [ Laughter ]
And it depends what happens. It depends what happens.
If there are more categories
about Dr. Seuss books in Spanish,
then I might have to do that.
I might have to bet todo.
Cien por ciento. Sí.
I like it. Remind us who you're playing for.
Playing for the Inner-City Scholarship Fund,
which is a fantastic organization
which helps economically disadvantaged families
of all faith backgrounds who want to send their kids
to the overperforming inner-city Catholic schools
of New York City, which, for over a century,
have just been doing remarkable work
with families that are born in America
and immigrant communities throughout history.
Well done. [ Applause ]
What a great cause.
Thanks for being with us tonight.
Rachel Dratch, you ended your quarterfinal game on a tear.
It was what helped you pull away from Macaulay Culkin
and win that game,
and you're doing it again tonight.
What have you done to take your game to that next level?
Oh, I don't know.
It's just, uh -- I'm not really sure.
Sometimes you know them, and sometimes you don't.
So I've had my share of both, but, yeah.
Well, I don't want you to get too in your head about it...
I know. Exactly. ...but you're playing very well.
Okay. Thank you. Thank you. Well done.
What charity will be benefiting
from your play tonight?
Okay, so I'm playing for City Harvest, and --
they're an organization in New York.
And I was trying to find a charity
that combines sustainability and environmental concerns
with helping my community, and so City Harvest takes food
that would otherwise go to waste, perfectly good food,
and delivers it free to people
that are experiencing hunger in New York.
That's great. A lot of worthy cities
are going to benefit from your play here tonight.

I get to host Jane Fonda's birthday every year for GCAPP,
which is another cool charity in Georgia,
and she gives back to, you know, my state.
And so we've been wheeling and dealing together,
and it's awesome.
Jane Fonda is one of the coolest, uh,
baddest broads I've ever hung out with.
So, uh, get to celebrate her birthday in a couple weeks here.
That's very fun. Yeah. Yeah.
You've played well enough to get to the semifinals. Yeah.
What kind of preparation did you do for -- for "Jeopardy!"?
What do you -- What do you chalk up your success to?
Uh, I-I did nothing to prepare.
Okay? And I'll be honest with you,
I've had night terrors about this for weeks.
And then I surprised myself and I won the first round,
and now I'm up against these two college professors,
and I'm sweating over here.
This silk blouse is moist, and I'm very upset.
And I'm -- I'm just like... I'm -- I'm...

I could do really well in just a Spanx category.
Triple Jeopardy! is going to be 30 Spanx clues
and nothing else. Please, please, for the love of God.
Well, no matter what happens here,
you're going to win $50,000 for your charity. That's awesome.

at "Celebrity Jeopardy!" Listen, if it doesn't scare you,
then it doesn't challenge you, so...
We're challenged.

Mo Rocca, literally cosplaying
as a college professor, is here,
to scare off the opposition, I think. The tactic.
Uh, how did you prepare for "Jeopardy!"?
I, um, ate a lot of blueberries and fatty fish.
Rachel: Mmm. Brain food.
Together.
I have a Vitamix. I put it to good use.
And I studied my World Book Encyclopedia,
the same one I grew up with.
I have the whole set -- 1974.
So I hope there are a lot of questions about Gerald Ford.
[ Laughter ]
Is it an advantage
having played "Celebrity Jeopardy!" before?
Did that help you get some nerves out?
Yeah, I think so because you're not blinded
by the star power around you
if you've played it before, so...
And you have participated in "Jeopardy!" before.
You read a category before
about your successful "Mobituaries" series.
Yeah, I did, my "Mobituaries" podcast.
And it was, um, really interesting
actually helping to craft the questions.
It's really...
You really gain a whole heck of a lot of respect --
not like I didn't have it already --
for the people who write this show.
Yeah. I mean, it's extraordinary.
Just like, you know, even more so than other TV,
"Jeopardy!" is absolutely a writer's medium. Yeah.
And that's -- that's what makes the show run. It really is.
And it's interesting that you got to see it
from the other side of the curtain. Yeah.
That may give you the upper hand.
But right now, Rachel Dratch has the upper hand.
She's got a big lead.
You come from a family a -- of "Jeopardy!" fans, as it were.
Well, I remember my grandfather
when I was really little,
he was like a "Jeopardy!" fanatic,
and he would have the -- the TV tray out,
and he -- that was his ritual.
So, you know, I guess I had like,
smatterings of it in my head as -- as a kid.
But now, you know, I have to say, I don't watch a lot
'cause it makes me really tense. [ Laughs ]
It's, like, "Jeopardy!" and sports things.
I'm just like, "I can't! I don't know who's going to win!"
And I get really tense, so...
And I see why now. Yeah.
You just wish everybody could win, maybe.
Exactly. Yes. Yeah.
Wouldn't it be nice if they all could win?
It sure would. But they all have fun, typically.
I mean... That's true.
People, I understand, enjoy playing "Jeopardy!"

Like -- like, Heather has some kind of, like,
trauma she's working through in therapy about this,
and she's still here.
And you're doing very well,
so you must get less tense playing than watching.
Maybe. I don't know.
It could turn on a dime, though, you know.
Well, I don't want to jinx anything.
