On November 15, 2023, the 688th episode was broadcast. The first to go was engineer Laura Góralska, from the small town of Groblice near Wrocław. Although initially there was no indication that she would fail, in the end she did not manage to leave the studio with the main prize. What question did she fail on and why?
“Millionaires”. The first question was a challenge for her. How did she cope?
From the very beginning she had a fighting attitude, and yet her game was characterized by great caution. When she heard the first question, she was sure that without the audience’s help she would not be able to indicate the correct answer. – “By their fruits you will recognize them.” With these words, according to the Gospel of St. Matthew warns against… – Hubert Urbański, and then gave the proposed answers:
A. real fruit growers
B. false fruit growers
C. true prophets
D. false prophets
Laura didn’t want to take any risks, so she used one of the available lifelines. The audience gathered in the studio almost unanimously chose option D, which she ultimately selected, receiving PLN 500.
The next three questions did not cause any major difficulties for the participant, but the problem reappeared with the pool of 10,000. zloty. Then she had to identify one of the heaviest organisms living on Earth. – What is Pando from the American state of Utah, considered by scientists to be the heaviest living organism on Earth? – he asked, adding:
A. giant panda
B. a baby panda
C. blue whale
D. aspen poplar
This time, the player also did not want to play at random, so she asked to use the “half and half” option. The computer rejected two incorrect answers, leaving her to choose A and D. After a moment of reflection, she selected “aspen poplar”, which turned out to be a bull’s-eye.
She asked her partner for help. His suggestion proved disastrous
It would seem that everything would go smoothly, but for PLN 20,000. PLN turned out to be no less a challenge. – After the death of which ruler, Władysław Łubieński was the last to serve as interrex in Poland? – the host read, giving possible variants:
A. Stanisław August Poniatowski
B. Augustus III Saxony
C. Władysław Jagiełło
D. Bolesław III Wrymouth
After thinking for a while, the participant admitted that answer B seemed the most likely. However, she needed to confirm this belief and consult her assumptions, so she asked to call her friend. Her partner, Kacper, did not hide the fact that he had no knowledge on this topic. However, he suggested option A, which Laura ultimately selected. This quickly turned out to be a mistake, and the correct answer was Augustus III Saxon. Due to the mistake, the player had to end the game, leaving the studio with only PLN 1,000.
