As the clock counted down, Conner struggled to identify the final word. When time expired, the correct answer was revealed as “I DID MY HOMEWORK.” The missed solution cost him a potential $40,000 bonus prize.
Afterward, Conner took the disappointment in stride and joked about the answer. “Aw, dude, I don’t do homework anymore. I’m not in school now,” he said, offering a lighthearted explanation for why the phrase did not immediately come to mind.
