On stage, you're incredibly focused, intense and ruthless. In the green room, you were just as nervous as the rest of us and very polite and gregarious.

Was your on-stage persona part of your strategy, or a byproduct of your training leading up to your tapings?

Also, how hard was it not spilling the beans? I lost, and I still wanted to tell everyone everything.

Sincerely, Guy who lost to Arthur

I'd never seen this bit before. That is way funnier than it should have been for such a simple gag. Thank you!

I was on with Arthur Chu. So... very briefly.

I've got this last week's episodes queued up for later. Can't wait to see your show! And congratulations!

Very nice, and just as nervous as the rest of us. He got in a little later the rest of us, and pretty much sneaked past everyone to sit in the side of the room, sometimes pacing. Most of us didn't even notice him until Maggie introduced him.

Between tapings, and during the credits filler portion, though, he was very friendly and eager to talk about his recent move and voiceover and performance work. Very affable and funny. And so nervous he was sweating through every outfit by the end of the taping, just like all of us.

It was surprising, but amusing, to see him portrayed as a "villain" in the press. For those of us who played against him, it was certainly surprising, but instead of being bitter, we just went back to the Doubletree and got hammered at the hotel bar and laughed it off. All of us from that week, including Arthur, are pals on Facebook and keep in touch, still. It was definitely a bonding experience and we all got to be part of a cool piece of Jeopardy! history.

Is it still a questionable fruit tray that no one touches and bagels with no utensils in the green room?
