This game begins in the $600 '83 screen...Mark does hit it on its $800 clue, but w/ a negative 400 bucks; Bradley's $600 to the good so far. The current king wagers the G-spot.
German con artist Konrad Kujau faked these to fool the world (for a while in the Spring of '83).
"Uh...what are elections?"...no, they were the Hitler Diaries, so he's $1,400 in the hole already. He does get back to zero at the TO; Deborah's now in 1st place w/ $2K. To close out this rd., Mark SWEEPS VWLLSS.

Mark goes for $3K more on this info:
It means to make a food or drug impure by adding inferior ingredients.
He blanks out on "adulterate"...but he does have a DDS on the next-to-last Tree at the $17K threshold; Deborah's got $8,600. The last upfront wager tonight's $2,300, so this clue could put the game away:
