Welcome to the impossible round, Round 9! I intentionally included this question
in the original list of 10 to make sure that there was a round where no one had
any advantage. Now that I've said that, I am sure at least one of you will come
forward to say that this is also your favorite movie and know the answer.

The contest is now open to Pete, Dan Blum, Dan Tilque, and Mark Brader.

#9. According to the SCMODS system in the patrol car, how many outstanding
warrants did Elwood Blues have in the movie "The Blues Brothers"?

It's one of my wife's favorite movies, but that's unfortunately not good
enough.

Well, it's *a* favorite, but...

This is a reminder that entries can be submitted until 8:25pm (GMT-5) on February 11th, 2014. In the event that Pete is does not submit an entry by then he will be eliminated. Which would be a really bad way to lose this contest. If I can find his email I will send him a reminder directly.
