00:01Here are our champions. They're three of a kind.
00:04I'm Quinn Collins.
00:06I'm Jim Gibson.
00:07I'm Mike Brown.
00:08And we're...
00:09Lily Coaches!
00:10And they're here to play...
00:13Hot...
00:13Potato!
00:16And here to toss the hot potato are our host, Bill Cullen!
00:22Hi there.
00:23Thank you all.
00:25Hello there.
00:27Thank you, men.
00:29Oh, here they are, our Little League Coaches.
00:31So far, they have won $7,500.
00:34Now, they've done that by virtue of winning two games.
00:36That accounts for $2,000 at $1,000 apiece.
00:39And they won our seventh straight jackpot for $5,500.
00:43Now, they would have been up here now with an additional five,
00:45but they blew it last time.
00:47Didn't know that Warren Beatty had never been married.
00:50But listen, that's in the past, fellas.
00:52Now it's time for us to regroup because your jackpot,
00:55because you didn't win the last one,
00:56we've added $5,000 to it.
00:58And this time, you're going for $10,000.
01:06That missed last time will be harmless if you win this one.
01:10Now, the subject of today's bonus is modern history.
01:14Modern history.
01:15I'm going to show you a pair of events.
01:17And each time, you'll have to tell me which of the two events happened first.
01:20Now, each time you're right, you win $500.
01:23As you know, you may quit whenever you want and take your money.
01:25But if you can answer five questions correctly, you'll win your jackpot,
01:28which is now, as I said, at $10,000.
01:31You have a pass which you can use, but only once per game.
01:34Mike, you're the captain.
01:35I'll depend on you to tell me whether you're going to play or pass or go for it indeed.
01:39Starting out for the first one, you all ready to, after I read the question,
01:43have a little conference and decide what your answer will be.
01:47Which of these two things happened first, gentlemen?
01:50The Watergate break-in or the Beatles' first visit to America?
01:56Talk it over.
01:56Beatles, Beatles.
01:57Oh, they are confident there.
01:59What do you say, Mike?
02:00We'll play and we'll say the Beatles visit us.
02:02Okay.
02:03Now, the Watergate break-in occurred in 1972.
02:05The Beatles' first visit was in 1964.
02:08You're right, and you got $500.
02:11All right, you got $500.
02:14You can take the $500 or quit.
02:16And quit, or you can go for the $1,000.
02:18Your choice.
02:20They're going.
02:21They're going.
02:21Okay.
02:22Question.
02:23They're going on.
02:24Which happened first?
02:26The U.N. established or Woodstock?
02:30Talk it over.
02:31Yes, sir.
02:32Going for $1,000 or nothing.
02:35You can pass.
02:36You get one pass.
02:37It's 72.
02:38When was the U.N. established?
02:4068 or 69.
02:41Woodstock was late 60s.
02:42Yeah.
02:43Okay.
02:44We'll pass.
02:44We'll pass.
02:45We'll pass, though.
02:45You're going to pass?
02:46Yeah.
02:47Okay.
02:47What would you have chosen?
02:48Probably the U.N.
02:49You'd be right.
02:50It was 1945, Woodstock, not until 1969.
02:53Okay.
02:54Now you have to go on.
02:56Which happened first?
02:57Jimmy Carter elected president or the Falkland invasion by Britain?
03:02Carter.
03:02Carter.
03:03Carter.
03:03We'll play Bill and we'll say Carter.
03:05Carter.
03:05You are right.
03:06That was 76.
03:09The invasion.
03:121982.
03:13About 1,000.
03:14Okay.
03:16They're going on.
03:18Here's the question.
03:19Was it the release of Star Wars or the release of hostages in Iran?
03:24Oh, no.
03:25It's Star Wars.
03:26Star Wars.
03:27Hostages with Jim Carter.
03:27Excuse me.
03:27You've used up your one pass.
03:29Yeah.
03:29That's right.
03:30Okay.
03:30Okay, Bill.
03:30We'll go on this.
03:32Star Wars.
03:32Star Wars.
03:33All right.
03:33We'll say Star Wars.
03:341977.
03:35The Iran hostages.
03:361981.
03:37You win number 500.
03:422,000 or nothing.
03:44They're going.
03:47Which happened first?
03:48The first man on the moon or the Cuban Missile Crisis?
03:51Cuban Missile Crisis.
03:53Okay, Bill.
03:53We'll say the Cuban Crisis.
03:55You're right again.
03:561962.
03:59Oh, boy.
04:01It's now if you go 10,000 or nothing, you can take your two.
04:05We're going.
04:0610,000.
04:06For 10,000 bucks.
04:09No passing.
04:10You've used your pass.
04:12I'm so excited I'm losing my voice.
04:14Here you go for $10,000.
04:16Which happened first?
04:17The American Bicentennial or the wedding of Prince Charles and Lady Diana.
04:24Oh, are they confident this would bring your winnings up to $17,500?
04:28What's your answer?
04:29We'll say the American Bicentennial.
04:31American Bicentennial in 1976.
04:34The wedding in 1981.
04:36Congratulations.
04:45Congratulations.
04:45You did it.
04:48Congratulations, guys.
04:48You have $17,500.
04:52You're still playing the game.
04:53We'll be back in just a moment.
04:54Right now, would you watch this, please?
04:56We'll get some money.
05:03Well, welcome back to Hot Potato and congratulations to our Little League coaches.
05:07What a fine bunch of guys you are and what a great job you've done.
05:10$17,500.
05:12And, Mike, what did you tell me?
05:13Your car blew up yesterday?
05:15I was driving home from work and all of a sudden just boom.
05:17It was my birthday and I was crying.
05:21Aww.
05:21I can find you a nice car.
05:22Well, Mike, we hope your third of $17,500 will cheer you up.
05:26They'll come in handy.
05:28I know you guys are ready to take on new opponents because you're up here to run it up, are
05:31you not?
05:32Sure.
05:32And we have some people over here who are going to work very hard to unseat you as the case
05:36may be.
05:36Let us meet your opponents right now.
05:38Hi, I'm Renee Perranti.
05:40Hi, I'm Sherry Allard.
05:41I'm Cindy Long.
05:43And we're Sign Language Interpreters.
05:45Well, I'll be done.
05:46Very good.
05:52Congratulations.
05:53That's a very difficult, is it not?
05:55I mean, it is to me.
05:56I don't know.
05:57It's a lot of fun.
05:58How long did it take you to learn, Renee?
06:00I've been signing about seven years now.
06:01And where do you, where do you interpret?
06:03I interpret at a high school in the valley and at another organization.
06:07Uh-huh.
06:07How about you, Sherry?
06:09I've interpreted at Cal State University Northridge and also for a group of children who sing and sign.
06:13Cindy?
06:13I've interpreted at Cal State Northridge also.
06:15Let me check out something here.
06:16You guys know sign and interpreters of sign language?
06:18You know that?
06:19Not anything we can put on the air.
06:22You mean you know?
06:25Oh, well, I know.
06:29I know a couple of those.
06:32They're self-explanatory.
06:34I mean.
06:35But you don't know the legitimate sign language.
06:38Is that right?
06:38No.
06:39Hey, girls.
06:39Renee, would you kindly all give me your opinion?
06:42For instance, Quindon there.
06:44In sign language, please.
06:46Oh.
06:46Okay.
06:48Oh, that's for you, Quindon.
06:50How about Jim?
06:52How about Jim?
06:57I'm beginning to learn sign language.
07:00I understand it already.
07:01Cindy, give me an interpretation of what you think of Mike.
07:03Wait till I stand back.
07:05Oh, yeah?
07:07Oh, that's it.
07:08Is that all good?
07:09I assume that's all good.
07:10Is it not?
07:11Okay.
07:11Fellas, you keep your sign languages to yourself.
07:14We're going to begin the game.
07:16These two teams play a series of rounds.
07:18Each round consists of a question.
07:19It has a number of answers to it.
07:20What's different about our game is a team can win a round two ways,
07:23either by coming up with a seventh answer
07:25or by knocking out all three members of the opposing team.
07:28So two out of three rounds wins the game.
07:30We're going to begin with our coaches.
07:31Our champs are always in control.
07:33They have 17-5.
07:34Quinn, you will answer first.
07:36Everybody listen to the question.
07:38We have a list of the nine most popular salad dressings in American restaurants.
07:43Oil and vinegar and house dressings do not count.
07:46They we take for granted.
07:48We want you to name seven of the nine.
07:50Oil and vinegar, house dressings are not on it.
07:52Quinn, we begin with you.
07:54Dressings for salads.
07:56Okay.
07:56I'll say Thousand Island.
07:58Quick answer.
07:58Thousand Island's right.
07:59We have one right answer on the board.
08:02For the record, Thousand Island is number one.
08:06All right.
08:07What do you say, Jim?
08:08Answer or challenge?
08:09How about blue cheese?
08:10Blue cheese.
08:11Quick answer.
08:12Right answer.
08:12Two on the board.
08:14Blue cheese, incidentally.
08:16Blue cheese, incidentally, was number two.
08:18And that also takes care of Roquefort.
08:20So keep that in mind.
08:21Mike, we're over to you.
08:22We have two right answers.
08:23Do you want to answer or toss the hot potato to the sign interpreters?
08:26I'll answer and I'll say Italian.
08:28Italian is another right answer.
08:30We have two rights on the board.
08:33What do you say, Quinn?
08:34Back to you.
08:35I'll say French dressing.
08:37French is another right one.
08:39Congratulations.
08:42Four right answers up there, Jim.
08:43Your choice.
08:46Oh, boy.
08:47You can pass.
08:48I mean, you can challenge.
08:50Well, I guess, gosh, I can't think of anything.
08:54I guess I'll have to challenge.
08:55Pick a person.
08:56How about, oh, gosh.
08:58Well, how about Sherry?
08:59Okay, Sherry, your challenge.
09:00We've had Thousand Island, blue cheese, Italian, French.
09:02You have to come up with an answer.
09:04Okay.
09:04I'll say hot bacon.
09:06Hot bacon is wrong, Sherry.
09:08That knocks you out of the game if you go sit on the bench.
09:10You have two opponents left, four right answers on the board.
09:13Hey, Mike, you're up.
09:15Okay.
09:16Um, I'm not sure of an answer, so I think if I'm not sure I should challenge Cindy.
09:21Mm-hmm.
09:21All right, Cindy, your challenge.
09:23You must come up with an answer to stay in the game, Cindy.
09:25I'll say green goddess.
09:26Green goddess is another wrong answer, Cindy.
09:29Go back and join Sherry.
09:30Hey, guys, you're doing it by the elimination route.
09:33There's only one opponent left.
09:34Quinn, it's up to you.
09:35We have four right answers on the board.
09:37What do you want to do?
09:38I think I know one, so I'll say ranch.
09:41Ranch is right.
09:42Good for you.
09:46Five right answers on the board.
09:48We need two more right answers.
09:49You have one opponent.
09:50Jim, what do you want to do?
09:51Could you repeat the answers?
09:53The ones that have already been given?
09:54Let me see.
09:55We've had Thousand Island, which was number one, blue cheese number two, Italian, French,
09:59and ranch.
10:00Oil and dressing and house dressing do not count.
10:03Jim, answer your challenge.
10:04I better have to challenge.
10:06Okay.
10:06The challenge is over to you, Renee.
10:08In order to stay in the round and have a chance at winning, you have to answer.
10:13If you miss it, it's the round goes over to your opponents.
10:16I'll say Russian.
10:17Russian is correct.
10:19And you're in there.
10:21Who's challenge?
10:21Quinn, who's challenge?
10:23Okay, Jim, go back there and sit on the bench.
10:25Renee, we now have six right answers on the board.
10:27We need one more right answer.
10:29You have two opponents.
10:30If you think you know an answer, well, that would be my advice, but don't pay attention
10:35to me.
10:36If you're sure of your answer, I'd come up with it.
10:37If not?
10:39I'd like to throw the hot potato over to Quinn.
10:41Okay, Quinn.
10:42You're challenged.
10:43In order to stay in the game, you have to come up with it.
10:45And if you answer correctly, you win the round.
10:48Okay.
10:49I'll say Caesar.
10:51Caesar is right.
10:52And again, the Little League coaches are going around.
10:55Come on down here.
10:58Boy.
11:00Pretty well done, you guys.
11:02You're pretty well rounded.
11:03The rest of the answer.
11:04Here are the two we could have accepted.
11:06They had all but two.
11:07Creamy garlic.
11:08Creamy garlic.
11:09And mayonnaise.
11:11So, that's round one in this game.
11:13Go to our champions.
11:14Now sitting on 17,500.
11:16They lead this game one round to nothing.
11:18And we'll be back here in just a moment.
11:20But we have a pause for recording.
11:22A bike.
11:23A whatever.
11:30Okay.
11:30It's our Little League coaches against our sign language interpreters.
11:34And so far, the Little League coaches continuing their winning ways.
11:37They have one round.
11:38We're going to begin with you ladies this time because control has passed.
11:41Everybody listen to the question.
11:43Here's the one we're looking for the answers.
11:45Davis Research asked people,
11:47What is something you can never do with your eyes closed?
11:52Well, the answers were eye-opening, he said.
11:55We seek seven of the ten activities most mentioned.
11:59Things you can never do with your eyes closed.
12:02This was a poll.
12:03Renee, we begin with you.
12:04Would you want to answer or do you want to challenge?
12:06I sure do.
12:06I'll say drive.
12:07Drive is the correct answer and one right one's on the board.
12:12Although a lot of people try to make that otherwise.
12:15It's the number one answer, drive.
12:16What do you want to do, Sherry?
12:17I'll answer.
12:18Here comes another one.
12:19How about play baseball?
12:21Play baseball.
12:22That was not one of the ones mentioned, so that is wrong, Sherry.
12:25We sit on the bench there and think about baseball.
12:27Hey, guys.
12:28Baseball helped you out.
12:29It was a wrong answer for your opponents.
12:31And the control passes back to you.
12:32Quinn.
12:34Oh.
12:35Your eyes closed.
12:37You can't work.
12:38You can't work?
12:39That's not one of the ones mentioned.
12:41Quinn, you're out of the game.
12:42And we have two players on either side.
12:44Congratulations, ladies.
12:45It's back to you.
12:46Cindy, you're in control.
12:47Answer or challenge?
12:48I'll answer.
12:48Here comes.
12:49I'll say, you can't read.
12:50You certainly can't read.
12:51That's a right answer.
12:53Two right answers.
12:54Win it.
12:59I'll say, gee, that's tough.
13:04You can challenge.
13:07I think I'll do that.
13:08I think I'll challenge Jim.
13:09Jim, you're challenged.
13:10You have to come up with one to stay in the game.
13:12How about you can't see?
13:14You can't see is not one of the ones mentioned.
13:17So, although that's a very good answer, Jim.
13:20I can't see with my eyes closed.
13:21We are back over.
13:22Jim's out of the game.
13:23And the interpreters are back in control.
13:25Cindy, you have two right answers.
13:27You only have one opponent.
13:28You can win that way.
13:28What do you want to do?
13:30I don't want to influence you.
13:31I'll just mention that.
13:32I'll give an answer.
13:33All right.
13:33If you think you know one, Cindy.
13:35Okay.
13:35Watch TV.
13:36Watch TV is one of the answers.
13:37That's correct.
13:40Renee, you have one opponent left
13:43or three right answers up.
13:44What do you want to do, Renee?
13:45Answer or challenge?
13:46I'm going to challenge Mike.
13:47It's up to you, Mike, to stay in the game
13:49and stay in the round, rather.
13:50And you have to answer it.
13:52Miss it and you're out of the round.
13:55Would watching a movie be the same as watching TV?
13:57I wouldn't.
13:58I don't have that information.
14:00I don't have that.
14:02It's up to you.
14:02Well, I'll just give another answer then.
14:04All right.
14:05Only thing I can think of is jogging.
14:08Jogging is not one of the answers
14:09and the interpreters have won the round and tried to give.
14:18For your information, my answers are up now.
14:22I now have them on my little screen.
14:23Watching the movie was not included.
14:24Here are the others given in the answer to the poll.
14:27Blink is one of the things, naturally.
14:29And they also said you can't cook, you can't eat,
14:32you can't put on makeup, you cannot thread a needle,
14:34you cannot walk, and you cannot write.
14:37So at this point, it's one round for the interpreters,
14:40one round for our Little League coaches,
14:42and we'll be back in a moment.
14:44But right now, there's a word for you.
14:48Let me briefly explain something here on that last one.
14:50We asked people, see, the poll asked people
14:53to name something they cannot do with their eyes closed.
14:56So even though some of the things you mentioned legitimately,
14:59certainly we all know, could not be done,
15:00they were not things mentioned on the poll.
15:02So you have to sort of anticipate the thinking of other people.
15:05Control passes back to our coaches now.
15:08And either team could win as one round apiece.
15:10And, Quinn, we're going to begin with you.
15:12First for everybody, here's the question.
15:14Last year, in the seven countries on this list,
15:18breweries produced almost 15 billion gallons of beer.
15:23That's more than three gallons of beer for every person on Earth.
15:27Now, can you name those top seven beer-producing nations?
15:31The top seven beer-producing nations.
15:34We begin with you, Quinn.
15:35This is the rubber round.
15:37This is for the game.
15:38What do you want to do?
15:38I'm going to say Germany.
15:40Germany indeed is right.
15:41One right answer on the board.
15:45I guess that would be everybody's first guess.
15:47What do you say, Jim?
15:48Answer or challenge?
15:50How about United States?
15:51The United States is another right answer.
15:54The United States, this will be a surprise to some people,
15:58which surprises me as it comes up here, is the number one nation.
16:02More than six billion gallons of beer produced.
16:04Mike, it's up to you.
16:05Half of it is right here.
16:06He says, holding his abdomen.
16:08Going to answer or challenge?
16:09I'll answer and I'll say Canada.
16:11Canada is incorrect.
16:13Wrong.
16:14Knocks you out of the game, Mike.
16:16So go back there and sit in the back of the bar.
16:19Control passes to the ladies, our interpreters.
16:21You can win this round and if you do, you can win the game.
16:24Rene, it's up to you.
16:25What are you going to do?
16:25Answer or challenge?
16:27I'll give an answer.
16:28I'll say Holland.
16:31Holland is wrong.
16:32Knocks you out of the game.
16:34There are two players on each side.
16:35Lucky fellas.
16:36Control pass back to you.
16:38And Quinn, this time you got it.
16:39Question again.
16:40The seven countries which produce the most beer.
16:45I have to say my favorite and that would be Ireland.
16:48Ireland is a wrong answer.
16:50Well, that knocks you out of the game.
16:51Quinn, go back and join Mike there and be thinking about what...
16:55What are you going to drink after the show?
16:57Yeah.
16:57Control passes back to our interpreters.
17:00Sherry, you're up.
17:01There's only one opponent left over there.
17:03We've had several wrong answers.
17:05Let me restate the question.
17:07The seven most largest producers of beer.
17:11Seven countries which are the largest producers of beer.
17:14Sherry, answer or challenge?
17:16I think I'll answer.
17:17If you think you have one, it's a pretty good idea.
17:19I'll say France.
17:20France is also wrong and Sherry, that knocked you out of the game.
17:25Look where we are.
17:26It's the rubber round right now.
17:29One round a piece.
17:30This is for the game.
17:31There is one player on either side.
17:34So, Jim, you have control.
17:36If you're sure of an answer, you might want to come up with it.
17:39If you think perhaps Cindy doesn't know an answer, you can challenge.
17:42You can win that way.
17:43What do you want to do?
17:45Well...
17:45Think it over.
17:46I guess I'll try.
17:47You're going to give me an answer?
17:48Sure.
17:49Okay.
17:49Now, you know what happens if it's wrong, don't you?
17:51That means the game over there and the round and the game.
17:54Okay.
17:54A lot riding on this.
17:56How about Great Britain?
17:58Great Britain?
18:00Correct.
18:01And you have...
18:04Okay.
18:05Okay.
18:06Okay.
18:07You're all by yourself now.
18:08There's another right answer on the board.
18:10And, Jim, what do you want to do this time?
18:12You came up with an answer.
18:13There are three right answers on the...
18:14Four right answers on the board.
18:15No, three.
18:16Three right answers on the board.
18:18Okay.
18:18If I pass and she gets it right, that means I'm knocked out.
18:21That's right.
18:21If you pass and she gets it right, that knocks you out of the round and game.
18:24If she gets it wrong, that gives you the round and game.
18:27What do you want to do?
18:29Two ways you can win here.
18:30Uh...
18:30Heck, I'll pass.
18:32Cindy, it's all up to you.
18:34Come up with the right answer.
18:35Your team wins the round and the game.
18:37Come up with the wrong answer.
18:39Their team wins the round and the game.
18:41Good luck.
18:41We've had Germany, the USA, and England so far.
18:45What do you want to do?
18:47You can answer or challenge.
18:49Do you want to answer?
18:49You've got to answer.
18:50You must answer.
18:51Absolutely.
18:52France.
18:53France is a repeat.
18:55Give me another answer.
18:56Excuse me.
18:56That is a repeat of a wrong answer.
18:59I'm sorry to keep you hanging, but the Little League coaches have won another one.
19:03Come on over here.
19:08That was a tough one.
19:09I did not.
19:12When you repeat a wrong answer, it is considered incorrect.
19:16I had forgotten about France.
19:17Here are the other countries.
19:18Brazil, Japan, Mexico, and, believe it or not, Russia.
