Final Jeopardy Wagers and Winner for May 13
As a Shakespeare fan, Andrew won the May 13 match and nailed the theatre-based Final Jeopardy clue.

Aaron wasn’t too far behind with $9,000. His incorrect response of “Merilly We Roll Along” dropped him by $5,401 and he left in second with $3,599.
Katie got a lot of questions right and had $7,200. She risked $7,199 but only came up with “Zip a deedoo,” leaving her with only $1 left for third place.
Final Jeopardy Answer for May 13
The correct answer for Final Jeopardy on May 13, 2025 is “What is Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?”
Winning the Tony Award for Best Play in 1963, “Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?” written by Edward Albee has a title that parodies a song from a Disney film. The name of the play itself is a pun on “Who’s Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf?” that comes from the 1933 movie “Three Little Pigs.” For most versions of the play, the character Martha sings parts of “Here We Go Round The Mulberry Bush” instead since getting the rights to a Disney song is prohibitively expensive, as the clue states.
