S03.E11: A Passing Retrograde: Doug’s Revenge

Small changes make big differences on this week's episode. The season three playoffs continue with a tense match to decide the winner of the Appellate Division. After Randy, Trip, and Will undertake a high society dinner challenge for their champions, round one asks them to name movies and TV shows whose titles have had one letter changed. In round two, we'll take a different tack to alter some movies by describing their plots in reverse. Can the players think backwards to come up with the answers? Then, we'll pull a temporal pincer movement to resume forward motion in the lightning round, where the next player in the season three championship will be decided.
