  Speaker 1: I looked up ash trees with this question and because
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: they're both strong and elastic. That's what you use to
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: make bows, tool handles, baseball bats. You know, things that
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: need to be strong and flexible, tough.
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: But supple question eight and seller of Catan or Catans
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: standard version. A player can win if they accumulate how

  Speaker 2: conditions ten points will get you the Victoire victwa Deville.
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: That's it for the first half, which means it's time
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: for the Bang Bang Round. The category for this week's
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: Bang Bang Round is theater. You'll have thirty seconds to
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: answer the following question. Name the six characters who die
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: in Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. Your time starts.
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: Now, and that's time. The six characters who die in
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: Romeo and Juliet are Juliet, Romeo, Count Paris, Tibalt, Mercutio,
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: and Lady Montague. This one would sometimes be eight depending
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: on the source, because some folks include the nurse's husband
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: and Benvolio both die off page, although the nurse's husband
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: from what I read in the play, the nurse's husband
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: has just been dead oh and is just mentioned like oh,
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: bless his hard He was a good soul kind of thing.
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: And Benvolio, they said in the first quarto, the some
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: of the earlier printings, he it was mentioned that he
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: died off stage, maybe of grief at lying to the
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: prince or something like that, but that was considered an
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: unreliable source. And in everything going forward, including the first
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: folio which I looked up, which is kind of a
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: definitive closer to Shakespeare source, Benvolio is not mentioned. Is
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: dying at all?
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: Well, it's funny because lady Montague dies when she hears
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: that Romeo's banished. And that's another off.
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: That one's out of those six, that one's the only
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: one that's not on stage.
