Ankita Vadiala, speller 261, had just one request for Dr. Bailly:
"Think you can make this as easy as the last round?" she said.
Dr. Bailly replied: "I have no choice. I'd like to."
Luckily, Ankita knew "ballabile."
"Yes!" she said, grinning. After she spelled it correctly, she jumped up and down."Thank you, Dr. Bailly, you really are the best."
