He's just messing with them, now

Category: Literary Characters.
Clue: His "remarks about the Confederacy ... made Atlanta look at him first in bewilderment, then coolly and then with hot rage"

Answer, of course, Rhett Butler.

But when the music stopped, Alex looked at them and said, "I wonder if any of you thought of a living person instead of a literary character? We're gonna find out right now."

And Kate, first to answer, looked stricken even though she was right, clearly panicked into thinking she should have said Lincoln or Sherman or somebody.

ps - Uncle Tom? Uncle Tom?

When Alex said, "I wonder if any of you thought of a living person instead of a literary character?" I thought to myself, "WTF??? The category is Literary Characters, you dummy, so why would a contestant guess anyone NOT in the category?" Well, OK, so "you dummy" is a euphemism for what I was really thinking, but you get the idea.
