00:05Take a risk, take a chance, take a dare, play the game of Double Dare, with the host of
00:20Double Dare, Alex Trebek.
00:30Good-looking audience.
00:32Thank you very much, and welcome, ladies and gentlemen.
00:34Hope you have a good time with us tonight.
00:35Wasn't that a super opening?
00:37Let me take a moment right now to tell you what Double Dare is not, okay?
00:41First of all, it is not a game in which the element of luck is the most important thing.
00:46As you are about to discover on Double Dare, knowledge and nerve are the things that count.
00:52And that's it.
00:53So let's go over and meet our players.
00:56First, here's our returning champion, Sarah McKinney.
00:59Hello, Sarah.
01:01Hello.
01:01Good to have you back with us.
01:03It's nice to be back.
01:04We've got a brand new audience with us this evening, and they have not seen you before.
01:08So I will tell them that you are married, you have a son, and you are a teacher.
01:12What subjects do you teach?
01:13I teach history and English.
01:15To what grade?
01:17Junior high school.
01:18Junior high school.
01:19And I hope I don't miss any history questions.
01:21Because the kids will get on you, right?
01:22Okay, well, you've done very well so far.
01:24This lady, our champion, has accumulated $2,750, which is very good going.
01:30And I want to wish you good luck today.
01:31Thank you very much.
01:32Now let's say hello to Sarah's opponent.
01:35Challenging Sarah McKinney is Henry Schultz.
01:40Hi, how are you?
01:43You look very happy at the moment.
01:45You confident?
01:47Very much so.
01:48You consider yourself to be a competitive individual?
01:50Absolutely.
01:51All right, then.
01:51I will wish you good luck against our champ.
01:53She's very good.
01:54So watch yourself.
01:56Now I'm going to review the rules for both of you.
01:58As you know, we show you clues that help you identify a famous person, place, or thing.
02:03The clues will appear one at a time.
02:05They get easier as we go along.
02:07The first contestant to buzz in with the correct answer wins $50 and the right to make the first dare.
02:14Players, are you ready to go?
02:15Ready.
02:16Okay, we're going to start off, as we always do, by showing our home audience the correct answer.
02:21Here it is.
02:22And I will tell you, players, that the subject whose identity we seek is a person.
02:27And to help you come up with the right answer, here is your first clue.
02:30Let's look.
02:33At Guadalcanal, Japanese troops yelled derisively his name to taunt American G.I.s.
02:42Next clue.
02:43Though not a professional actor, he starred as the heroic Iceman in a 1920 silent film, Headin' Home.
02:52Third clue.
02:53His boss, Jacob Rupert, claimed he had the mentality of a boy of 15.
03:00Next clue.
03:01His wife stated that he brought out the beast in a lot of ladies the world over.
03:08We'll go on to the next one.
03:10Clue number five.
03:10For the Boston Red Sox, he pitched 29 and two-thirds consecutive scoreless innings in World Series play.
03:17That was Henry's buzzer.
03:18He has sealed Sarah's booth.
03:20She cannot hear or see what is going on.
03:21Henry, what's the answer?
03:22Babe Ruth.
03:23Absolutely right.
03:24That's good.
03:25For $50, and you are leading in the game.
03:29Henry, the game is $500, and you can move closer to that total right now because you are in a
03:34dare situation.
03:36You can show Sarah the next clue and gamble that she won't be able to come up with Babe Ruth
03:41as the right answer.
03:42And if it works out that way and she answers incorrectly, then we'll give you an additional $100.
03:47If she answers correctly, then we give her $50.
03:49Let's look at the clue together.
03:51Many feel that his film biography starring William Bendix is one of the worst films ever made.
03:58That's the clue.
03:59Do you want to take the dare and show that to Sarah?
04:02I'll take the dare and show it to you, Sarah.
04:03All right.
04:03Let's bring Sarah back.
04:06Sarah, Henry came up with the right answer, and he has taken the dare, and he's going to let you
04:10see this next clue.
04:11You'll have five seconds in which to look at it, and then we'll want an answer from you.
04:15Here it is.
04:21Sarah, what's the answer?
04:22I don't know.
04:23Don't know.
04:24All right.
04:24That's $100 more for Henry.
04:25He has $150, and we close Sarah's booth once again.
04:30Are you a baseball fan, by the way?
04:32Yes, I am.
04:32That makes it a little easier.
04:33Okay.
04:34Well, it took you five clues to get the right answer, Henry.
04:36Now you are in a double dare situation.
04:40Let's take a look at the next clue.
04:42Clue number seven.
04:43His first name was George.
04:45His middle name, Herman.
04:47Do you want to take the double dare and show this clue to Sarah and gamble that she won't be
04:51able to come up with the answer?
04:52Because if she doesn't, then we give you an additional $200, and you will go to $350.
04:59I'll gamble.
04:59Let's give the other clue to Sarah.
05:01She's a baseball fan.
05:02All right.
05:02Let's bring Sarah back.
05:04Sarah, Henry is taking the double dare.
05:07He is showing you this clue for five seconds.
05:09Then we'll need an answer.
05:17Have you got an answer?
05:18Babe Ruth.
05:19Babe Ruth is right, and that gives you $100.
05:21Nice going, Sarah.
05:23Beautiful move, and a gamble for Henry that did not pay off.
05:27Are you a baseball fan, Sarah?
05:29We were wondering about that.
05:30No.
05:30You're not, but that clue gave it to you.
05:32You now trail by $50 as we go to our next subject.
05:36Let's see what the correct answer is.
05:40And this time, we are looking for a person.
05:43Here is the first clue.
05:47Unbeknownst to him, his wife ran up a $27,000 clothing debt.
05:54Sarah is right in on clue number one.
05:56What's the answer?
05:57Abraham Lincoln.
05:58Absolutely right.
05:59Nice going.
06:01You've tied the game.
06:05You know, of course, Sarah, that your students are going to be very, very proud of you right now.
06:08You are in the dare situation.
06:09You've got $150.
06:11You can show the next clue to Henry and gamble that he isn't going to be able to come up
06:15with Abraham Lincoln.
06:16You got it on the first clue.
06:18You're sitting pretty right now.
06:19Let's look at clue number two.
06:21In 1876, a pair of thieves were caught while attempting to disinter his remains and hold them for $200,000
06:28ransom.
06:29Do you think Henry would be able to get the right answer from that clue?
06:31Do you want to take the dare or do you want to stop?
06:33I take the dare.
06:34Let's show him the clue.
06:35Okay.
06:36Let's bring Henry back.
06:38Sarah got the right answer.
06:39This game is all tied up.
06:41Each of you has $150.
06:42She has taken the dare and she's going to let you look at this clue.
06:52Henry, what's the answer?
06:53Abraham Lincoln.
06:54You are right.
06:55Okay.
06:56Tick for tack.
06:58You go to $200 and you're in the lead.
07:00$200 to $150.
07:02A very close game.
07:03And we are going to take a break for a commercial message and come back with more subjects on Double
07:08Dare.
07:11Welcome back to Double Dare, a very close game.
07:13Our challenger with $200, our champion.
07:15Sarah with $150.
07:17We're going to go on to our next subject.
07:19By the way, if you folks at home want to play along, then don't look right now as we show
07:22you the correct answer.
07:24And players, the subject this time is a thing.
07:28Here is the first clue to help you identify that thing.
07:32Pierre Trudeau, Richard Burton, and Neil Armstrong love to play with it.
07:38Clue number two.
07:40The Navy spent nearly $400,000 testing its possible military use.
07:47Clue number three.
07:48It has only recently become a sensation on the streets of Red China.
07:55Clue number...
07:56We won't even have time to go to clue number four.
07:58Sarah thinks she's got an answer.
07:59She has just sealed Henry's booth.
08:01And what is your answer?
08:02The Frisbee.
08:03The Frisbee is right.
08:04Yes.
08:06We've tied the game once again, Sarah.
08:08You are now in a dare situation.
08:11We didn't have a chance to see the fourth clue, so let's take a look at that together right now.
08:15For many years, playing with it was confined to college campuses.
08:21Do you want to take the dare?
08:22Show that clue to Henry and gamble that he won't be able to come up with the right answer?
08:26Yes, I do.
08:27Okay.
08:27Let's bring Henry back.
08:29Welcome back, Henry.
08:30Got some bad news for you.
08:32Sarah got the right answer, but she is taking the dare.
08:35She's going to show you this clue.
08:36You've got five seconds.
08:38Here it is.
08:44Think you know the answer?
08:45Yes.
08:46Frisbee.
08:46The Frisbee is right.
08:48Okay.
08:49$50 for you.
08:52A dare that didn't pay off once again, and that's happening quite often on this program.
08:56Let's go to our next subject.
08:58We'll reveal the answer for the folks at home, and I will tell you that you are looking for a
09:02person.
09:03Here's clue number one.
09:07His first wife went to court to make him stop saying those awful things about her.
09:14Clue number two.
09:16Although he can't read music, he frequently drops in at Michael's Pub in New York to play clarinet.
09:23Henry thinks he's got the answer.
09:24Sarah's booth is closed.
09:25What is it, Henry?
09:26Woody Allen.
09:27Woody Allen is right.
09:28You now have $300.
09:31We're in the dare situation.
09:32Let's take a look at the next clue together.
09:35As a comedy writer for Sid Caesar, he won a Sylvania Award in 1957.
09:40You're going to take the dare and show Sarah that clue?
09:42I'll take the dare.
09:43Let's give her the clue.
09:44Okay.
09:44Let's bring Sarah back.
09:47Sarah, Henry got the right answer.
09:49He has taken the dare.
09:50You've got five seconds to look at this.
09:57What's the answer?
09:58Steve Allen.
09:59Steve Allen is wrong.
10:00We close your booth.
10:01We give Henry another $100.
10:03He now has $400.
10:07Sarah has $200.
10:09This is the double dare situation, Henry, but your strategy is very, very important right
10:14now.
10:15Yes.
10:15If you give her the next clue and she misses it, you will wind up with $600 and you will
10:20become the new champion.
10:22If you give her the clue and she gets it, she will have $300.
10:27She will trail you by $100.
10:28Let's look at the clue before you make your decision.
10:30He wrote, why does man kill?
10:33He kills for food.
10:34And not only for food, frequently there must be a beverage.
10:39You want to take the double dare and give Sarah that clue?
10:42Let's give her the double dare.
10:43Okay.
10:44Let's bring Sarah back.
10:48Henry has decided to take our double dare and give you this clue.
10:54If you come up with a right answer, we pay you $100.
10:56A wrong answer gives him $200 and the game.
11:00He wins the game.
11:01He'll become the new champion.
11:02All right, Sarah.
11:03Look at this clue for five seconds and then give me an answer.
11:12Sarah?
11:14No.
11:15Johnny Carson.
11:16Johnny Carson is wrong.
11:18Woody Allen is the right answer.
11:19Henry's got $600.
11:20He is the new champion.
11:21Come out here, Henry.
11:28Congratulations to you, Sarah.
11:30You gave it a good shot.
11:32That was not one of your subjects that you teach at school.
11:34You had $2,750 going into this game.
11:38You added $200.
11:39You now have $2,950.
11:40Congratulations.
11:41Thank you for joining us on Double Dare.
11:44And we've got ourselves a new champion in a moment.
11:47We're going to get you to play a game we call Beat the Spoilers,
11:50where you will have a chance to win $5,000 in cash.
11:53But first, let's take this break.
11:55Welcome back to Double Dare.
12:00This is Henry Schultz, our new champion.
12:02He has just earned $600 in winning that game.
12:05How do you feel about your victory?
12:06Was it as easy as you thought it was going to be?
12:08No, I think Sarah was a tough player.
12:10She was.
12:10But you seemed to know the correct answer on Frisbee a lot earlier,
12:14and yet you didn't buzz in.
12:14Why?
12:15She beat me to it.
12:16She beat you to it?
12:17Okay.
12:17Well, right now, you've got a chance to pick up an additional $5,000 in cash
12:22as you take on the Spoilers.
12:30Now, Henry, the reason we call these fellows the Spoilers
12:33is because they get paid for keeping you from winning that $5,000.
12:38Now, each of our Spoilers is a PhD.
12:40Let me introduce them.
12:41Spoiler number one is Dr. Jim Brock.
12:44Spoiler number two is Dr. Ira Greenberg.
12:47And spoiler number three is Dr. Lee Franz.
12:51Those are the Spoilers.
12:52Let's cut them off right now.
12:55Okay, they can't hear us.
12:56This would be a good time, folks, to boo them because they're the bad guys.
13:02Now, let me tell you how you're going to go about beating the Spoilers.
13:05Take a look at this board.
13:06We have ten clues to a person, place, or thing.
13:09The numbers are no indication whatsoever as to whether a clue is easy or hard.
13:13Your job is to select five of the clues and give them to the Spoilers.
13:17We will pay you $100 each time a spoiler comes up with the wrong answer.
13:22If you can get just one spoiler to miss on all five clues,
13:26then you will win the $5,000.
13:28And that's what it's all about.
13:34Now, let's find out what the clues refer to.
13:36The correct answer at the top of the board is Fonzie.
13:40Pick a clue.
13:42Lucky seven, please.
13:43On television, his best friends are the characters Richie, Potsy, and Ralph.
13:51Now, I told you that you have to give five clues to the Spoilers.
13:55There are ten clues up there.
13:57That means there are five clues left over.
13:58So we're going to give you five passes.
14:01Remember, our Spoilers are PhDs.
14:04They may not watch.
14:06They may not watch.
14:07You want to give this clue or pass on it?
14:11I'll pass.
14:12The audience knows it.
14:13The audience knows the show.
14:15They say pass.
14:15You've used one pass.
14:16Pick another clue.
14:17Nine.
14:19This character's ideal girl is 45, 22, 34, and has her own Harley.
14:26What are you going to do with that?
14:27Give it or pass?
14:28What do you think that is?
14:30Let's give it to her.
14:32I'll give it to her.
14:35Henry, we're not interested in your private life.
14:37We're dealing now with the Spoilers, and let's bring them back.
14:41All right, Spoilers.
14:42Here is the clue.
14:44This character's ideal girl is 45, 22, 34, and has her own Harley.
14:51That's the clue.
14:52Now the answer.
14:52Spoiler number one.
14:55Not fast enough.
14:57Let's go to spoiler number two.
14:59That's $100 for you, by the way, Henry.
15:01Now we'll go to Dr. Greenberg.
15:02Spoiler number two.
15:04Do you have an answer?
15:06No answer.
15:06No answer.
15:08Good.
15:09You're up to $200.
15:11Let's go to Dr. Fromm.
15:13Spoiler number three.
15:14Hugh Hefner.
15:15Hugh Hefner is a good guess, but a wrong answer.
15:20That means you've got $300.
15:21You've managed to get one clue past all three spoilers.
15:24Pick another clue.
15:25Let's take five.
15:27He was engaged to the character Pinky Tuscadero.
15:31Do you want to give it or pass?
15:33Pass.
15:34Pass that one.
15:35You have two passes, and you have given away one clue.
15:38Pick another clue.
15:39Two.
15:40This television character's motto is, live fast, die young, and you leave a good-looking corpse.
15:47Sounds like a good one to give them.
15:48Give them that one.
15:49All right.
15:50Spoilers.
15:51Here's your next clue.
15:52This TV character's motto is, live fast, die young, and leave a good-looking corpse.
15:57Let's hear the answers.
15:58First of all, Dr. Brock.
16:00Um, I don't know.
16:02Not fast enough.
16:03That's another $100.
16:05You're up to $400 right now.
16:07Good going, Henry.
16:08Dr. Greenberg, do you have an answer for me?
16:09Sorry, no answer.
16:10No answer again.
16:13Let's go to our third spoiler, Dr. Franz.
16:17Do you have an answer for me?
16:19Nick, pretty boy, Romano.
16:22Pretty boy, Romano.
16:23That is incorrect.
16:26Sort of a funny answer, but he didn't smile at all.
16:29They very seldom smile, the spoilers.
16:31$600 for you, Henry.
16:32You've gotten two clues past them.
16:34Keep going.
16:35You're doing well.
16:36Number one.
16:38Number one it is.
16:40There was a campaign to make this character president of the U.S.
16:44Let's give him that clue.
16:45Let's give him that one.
16:46That sounds pretty good.
16:47Spoilers?
16:48There was a campaign to make this character president of the United States.
16:55Dr. Brock thinks he's got the answer now.
16:59But not fast enough.
17:02Another $100 for you.
17:03You're up to $700.
17:05We're moving along beautifully.
17:06Dr. Greenberg, spoiler number two.
17:09Still no answer.
17:14Dr. Greenberg is consistent.
17:16Spoiler number three.
17:19Dr. Franz.
17:20The Fonz.
17:26Dr. Franz, you can smile now because that's the right answer.
17:29I know.
17:30And you will get the $100.
17:32But you're doing all right, Henry.
17:33You've got $800 and you've managed to give away three clues.
17:37We need two more.
17:38You've still got three passes to play with also.
17:40So pick another clue.
17:41Number eight, please.
17:43He is the character most credited with the success of Happy Day.
17:47I will pass that one.
17:49All right.
17:49We'll take a pass on that.
17:51Pick another clue for me.
17:52Number ten.
17:53Number ten.
17:54This character's real name is Arthur Fonzarelli, Jr.
18:00Give it a pass.
18:01How many more?
18:01I have three.
18:02You've got three passes used up.
18:04You have two more to go.
18:05I better pass.
18:06I better pass.
18:06All right.
18:07That's a pass also.
18:08So we have three clues left.
18:11Pick one of them.
18:11Number three, please.
18:13Sit on it.
18:15I don't have to give them the clue with that particular reading.
18:18So do you want me to give it or pass?
18:20I'll give it a straight reading.
18:22Give it a straight reading.
18:23Okay.
18:25Spoilers.
18:26Here is the clue.
18:28Here is the clue.
18:29Sit on it.
18:31Spoiler number one.
18:32We've got a smile.
18:34Sit on it.
18:36Dr. Brock?
18:37Sit on it.
18:39Too much time.
18:43You now have another $100 taking you to $900.
18:47Let's go to spoiler number two.
18:48Dr. Greenberg?
18:50The only thing that comes is Dagmar.
18:54Dagmar.
18:56Sit on it, Dr. Greenberg.
18:58That's wrong.
19:00That's $1,000.
19:02Okay.
19:03You need to get one more clue past the remaining spoilers.
19:08Just one clue past either one of them.
19:10Well, let's try four.
19:12Number four.
19:13This character calls his landlord Mr. C.
19:18Do you want to give that or do you want to take a pass?
19:20You've got one more pass.
19:23Let's give it to him.
19:24All right.
19:26Let's see if we can get this past the two spoilers that remain.
19:30This character calls his landlord Mr. C.
19:35Dr. Brock, what's your answer?
19:37Mr. C.
19:40Too much time.
19:41That's it.
19:43$5,000.
19:44Congratulations.
19:45Nice going.
19:51You stumped them.
19:52They weren't able to come up with the fawns.
19:54And that means your total cash winnings to this point, $5,600.
19:59And you're going to go on and face another challenger.
20:02Thank you, audience.
20:03Thank you, audience.
20:04Thank you, audience.
20:04Thank you, audience for their help.
20:05All right.
20:06The audience, Henry and I, are coming back right after this.
20:12Welcome back.
20:13We're out of time.
20:14We're not going to be able to introduce another player on Double Dare.
20:17But there is one important statistic to mention right now.
20:20And that is Henry Schultz, $5,600 in cash.
20:24And he's coming back on our next show to continue as our champion.
20:28We hope you will join us then also.
20:30Thank you for tuning in today.
20:31So long, everybody.
20:34This is Johnny Olsen speaking for Double Dare.
