Jeopardy! champion Maureen O’Neil put her four-day winning streak on the line Friday night. Here’s how everything played out on tonight’s episode.

O’Neil, an executive assistant from Rye Beach, New Hampshire, has been dominating Jeopardy! all week. Thanks to her aggressive “Final Jeopardy!” wages, she’s managed to defeat all challengers on the way to winning $58,200.

On Friday’s episode, she faced off against Matt Glassman, a bar owner from Los Angeles, California, and Laura Dera, a hotel assistant manager from Studio City, California.

It was Matt Glassman who jumped out to the early lead on Friday’s episode. After the “Jeopardy!” round, he totaled $3,400. In second was Laura Dera with $3,200 followed by the champion Maureen O’Neil in third with $3,000.

Unfortunately, things only got worse for O’Neil. She finished “Double Jeopardy!” with -$2,600 and could not participate in the final round. It was a close game between Dera ($7,400) and Glassman ($6,900).

“Final Jeopardy!” saw Dera answer incorrectly and risk it all. Meanwhile, Glassman managed to come up with the correct response and become the new Jeopardy! champion.
