And the answer is…
What is bowling?
Starting off with Robinson, she incorrectly guessed basketball, and after risking it all dropped down to $0. Wood gave the right response though and wagered $9,000, putting him up to $22,200. That left if all down to whether gave the right response (and if he bet enough). Unfortunately he didn't, guessing shot put, though even if he had gotten the right answer, his conservative $0 bet would have meant the same result: Roy Wood Jr. is on the semifinal.
As for Alvarez and Robinson, they earned $30,000 for their charities, Communities in Schools and (Red), a division of The One Campaign.
