00:00Followed by Dateline and the premiere of Crossing Jordan, NBC Tonight.
00:05Here are the eight contestants who will take part in tonight's show.
00:09One of them will walk away with up to $1 million for their charity.
00:12The rest will leave, as round by round, they're voted off as The Weakest Link.
00:29Welcome to a special celebrity edition of The Weakest Link.
00:37Any of the eight people in the studio here tonight could win up to $1 million for the charity of
00:45their choice.
00:47If they want to win the money, they'll have to work as a bunch.
00:51But only one of them will make it to the end, as round by round, we eliminate the player voted
00:59The Weakest Link.
01:01Let's meet the team.
01:06Hi, I'm Maureen McCormick, and I was born in Encino, California, and I'm playing for the charity Amphar.
01:15I'm Mike Luckinland. I'm from Salt Lake City. I'm playing for the Southern Utah Wilderness Alliance and the Sierra Club.
01:24Hi, I'm Christopher Knight. I was born in Manhattan, New York, and I'm playing for Zero Population Growth.
01:31Hi, I'm Susan Olson. I'm from Santa Monica, California, and I'm playing for the Alzheimer's Association.
01:40I'm Eve Plum. I was born in Burbank, California, and I'm playing for the Laguna Canyon Foundation.
01:47Hi, I'm Florence Henderson. I'm 39 years old. I was born in Dale, Indiana, and I'm going to play for
01:56the Sisters of St. Benedict in Southern Indiana.
02:00My name is Robbie Rist. I'm from Downey, California. I'm playing for the Los Angeles Mission, and I'm praying to
02:06God I don't kill this show, too.
02:13I'm from Santa Monica, California, and I'm playing for the Duro Lupus Foundation.
02:25Now, the rules. In each round, the aim is to answer enough questions correctly to reach your $125,000 target
02:34within the time limit.
02:36There are eight of you, so the fastest way to reach that target is to create a chain of eight
02:42correct answers.
02:43Get your question wrong, and you break the chain, and lose all the money in that chain.
02:48But if you say the word bank before the question is asked, the money is safe.
02:54However, you start a new chain from scratch.
02:59Remember, team, at the end of the round, only money that has been banked can be carried over to the
03:06next round.
03:08The first round lasts for two and a half minutes. The order you're playing in was randomly selected before the
03:14show.
03:15We'll start with the player in the first position.
03:19That's you, Maureen.
03:22Let's play The Weakest Link.

06:16Woo!
06:17Yeah!
06:18Yeah!
06:23She's not smiling.
06:24Oh, dear.
06:25That money will go through to the next round.
06:27One of you deservedly will not.
06:31Whose performance is decidedly un-groovy?
06:38It's time to vote off.
06:40The weakest link.
06:45Maureen is the strongest link.
06:47She answered all of her questions correctly and banked money for the team.
06:51Susan is the weakest link.
06:52But at this early stage of the game, will the team have noticed?
06:57Voting over, it's time to reveal who you think is the weakest link.
07:06Robbie.
07:09Chris.
07:13Robbie.
07:15Sorry.
07:16Chris.
07:19Robbie.
07:25I don't have a good feeling about this.
07:28Chris.
07:29Robbie.
07:30How many games?
07:35We have a tie team.
07:38Robbie and Chris, four votes each.
07:42Florence.
07:43Yes?
07:44That's not a very motherly choice.
07:46I love Chris Knight.
07:48I've always loved him.
07:49He knows that.
07:50But it's your stupid show that's making me do it.
07:57Barry.
08:00Why have you voted for Robbie?
08:02Well, it's not easy to make a choice, but...
08:07And this could be complete coincidence.
08:09But when Robbie joined our show as cousin Oliver,
08:13shortly thereafter we were cancelled.
08:19When the vote is tied, the strongest link has to cast the deciding vote.
08:27You'll be thrilled to hear that Maureen is the strongest link.
08:31Who did it?
08:32No.
08:35You voted for Robbie?
08:37Yes.
08:38Why have you voted for Robbie, incidentally?
08:41Well, you know, with everyone here, how could I not vote for Robbie?
08:47You're not making any sense at the moment.
08:49Could you explain yourself?
08:50Ann?
08:52Ann?
08:52I was on the show for six weeks.
08:54That's why.
08:55Right.
08:56Nobody is talking to you.
09:03Are you going to stick with Robbie, or would you like to change your vote to Chris?
09:10No.
09:14Maureen has decided.
09:17Robbie?
09:18Yes?
09:19You are not going to be allowed to remain and ruin this fine show as you have many, many other
09:28shows.
09:32You are the weakest link.
09:34Yes!
09:35Survive!
09:36Woo!
09:37I'm, uh...
09:44I was railroaded, plain and simple.
09:47You know, we don't live in a world where smart people are rewarded.
09:53Seven have made it this far, but only one will win.

13:11Not too bad.
13:12That money will go to the next round.
13:14And one of you will not.
13:17Who has butchered more wrong answers than Sam has meat?
13:26It's time to vote off.
13:28The weakest link.
13:32Statistically, Chris is the strongest link in this round.
13:35The weakest link is Barry.
13:37He failed to answer a single question correctly.
13:39How will the votes go?
13:40Voting over, it's time to reveal who you think is the weakest link.
13:50Eve.

13:56Susan.
13:58Barry.
14:01Maureen.
14:04Barry.

14:21Florence.
14:23Is there something Barry isn't good at?
14:29It was very tough.
14:31It was a very tough decision.
14:32I thought his questions were rather tough as well.
14:37But did you answer anyone correctly?
14:40That is beside the point.
14:45Mike.
14:46Yes.
14:48Why Barry?
14:51I think in that round, he actually was the weakest link.
14:54And so, based on that, I figure he'll forgive me for voting for him.
15:03Barry.
15:04Statistically, you were the worst player.
15:07With three votes, you are the weakest link.
15:10Goodbye.
15:13Bye, Barry.
15:18My own mother, to vote me off in that round, I think, highly disappointing.

18:40One of you will not.
18:42Who's more lost than Cindy and Bobby at the Grand Canyon?
18:47Susan, it's time to vote on.
18:50Weakest link.

19:01But will the votes follow the statistics?
19:05Okay, team.
19:06Voting over.
19:07It's time to reveal who you think is the weakest link.
19:13Eve.

19:25Maureen.
19:29Eve.
19:38Maureen.

19:56You don't like Eve?
19:58No, I love Eve.
19:59I love Eve.
20:00I just, I think that she was the weakest on the last round.
20:05Mike.
20:06Mike.
20:06Yes.
20:07Do you understand now what haute couture is?
20:10I'm starting to get the picture.
20:12Well, if you're still confused.
20:14Well, if you're still confused, let me assist you.
20:16What I'm wearing, Mike, is haute couture.
20:21What you're wearing is not haute couture.
20:26Why Eve?
20:28She was the first one that popped into my head.
20:31There.
20:31I'm couture.
20:32Excuse me.
20:36Eve.
20:37Chris was statistically the worst player, but it's votes that count.
20:44Eve, with three votes, you are the weakest link.
20:48Goodbye.
20:57I think they're just afraid that I'd be too much competition at the end.
21:01I think that Chris might be the next to go because he's eaten up some clock.
21:06Round four, team.
21:08You've banked $21,500.
21:10I think you are very funny.
21:12Neither of you are, Les.

23:24Men in.
23:25No dry idea.
23:29Time is up.
23:31You banked.
23:33$12,500.
23:37That money will go through to the next round.
23:40One of you will not.
23:42Who would lose to Tiger in a battle of wits?
23:47It's time to vote on for the weakest link.
23:53Florence was the strongest player last round, but is now statistically the weakest link.
23:58The strongest link is Mike, but it's the votes that count.
24:01One of these five players has reached their end.

25:16Who's counting?
25:18So, Florence, you didn't like the daughters either.
25:21I love them all.
25:22You know, it's tough being a mother.
25:25When the vote is tied, the strongest link has to cast the deciding vote.
25:34Mike the shirt.
25:38You were the strongest link in the last round.
25:40If you'd like to get rid of Maureen, that's fine.
25:44If you'd like to change your vote and get rid of our music expert, that's fine, too.

28:42One of you will not.
28:44Who is making the Partridge family look like a bunch of geniuses?
28:53It's time to vote off.
28:55The weakest link.
29:00Chris is the strongest link for the second time this game.
29:04Mike, the strongest player last round, is now statistically the weakest link.
29:08Whose game is over now?
29:11Voting over.
29:12It's time to reveal who you think is the weakest link.
29:19Chris.
29:23Susan.
29:26Florence.
29:27My baby.
29:29I'm sorry.
29:31Mike.
29:37We have a tie, team.
29:40Mike, Chris, Susan, Florence, one vote each.
29:47Susan, had enough of Florence?
29:50Well, I just thought if we cleared out that side of the stage, it'd be easier for the cameramen.
30:01Florence.
30:02Yes.
30:02Why Mike?
30:04Well, you know, you don't want to play favorites.
30:06They're my children.
30:10Mike, are you any clearer why you've made your vote?
30:14I have a feeling Chris is going to come on strong.
30:17And, uh...
30:17To you?
30:21With correct answers.
30:23With correct answers to your questions.
30:27And, uh...
30:27So you want him out?
30:30I think now might be the time, yes.
30:33I'm sure that's a very wise decision, because when the vote is tied, the strongest link has to cast the
30:39deciding vote.
30:41Astonishingly, Chris was the strongest link in the last round.
30:46Oh.
30:48Chris, you can change your mind.
30:51Would you like to get rid of Mike, Susan, or are you a tidy person who would like to clear
30:57this side of the stairs?
30:59I really wanted to switch Susan to Mike after I remembered the overhead.
31:03Okay, just cut to the chase.
31:04Who'd you run?
31:07Mike, we've had enough of your shirts.
31:09You are the weakest link.
31:10Bye.
31:16These people have been my friends for 30 years.
31:18And when it, in the first round, when it finally hit, I'm going to have to write one of their
31:22names down on my little screen.
31:24You know, that was tough.
31:27Round six, team, you've banked $44,000 out of a possible $625,000.
31:34Three of you left, another ten seconds coming off the time.
31:37We start with the strongest link from the last round.
31:40That's Chris.
31:41Let's play the weakest link.
31:45Start the clock.

33:28Um, correct answer is Lauren Holley.
33:32I know.
33:33What can I say?
33:35You bank nothing.
33:37Oh, notice that.
33:39The question is, who, frankly, was not worth the cost of the limousine to bring them here tonight?
33:48It's time to vote off.
33:50Weak asleep.
33:54At this crucial stage of the game, Florence is statistically the strongest link.
33:59Susan is the weakest link for the second time this game.
34:03Who will survive this final elimination?
34:06Only two of these three people will move on to the final round.
34:10One more player will take that walk of shame when we return to the weakest link.
34:22Welcome back to the weakest link.
34:27Okay, team, voting over, it's time to reveal who you think is the weakest link.
34:36Florence.
34:40Florence.
34:44You are such losers.
34:50I, well, I voted for, and, and Michael, her little boy, will never forgive his grandma, Flo, and I will
34:57never forgive you.
34:58Susan.
35:04I deserve it.
35:08Susan, that's an interesting choice.
35:13Well, I thought that he would be easier to beat in the final round than the genius of mom here.
35:21Ah.
35:24That doesn't wash with me, and I don't think it'll wash with her either.
35:28Nope.
35:29No.
35:32Chris.
35:36Why are you getting rid of your mother?
35:40Was she a bad stepmother in the end?
35:44No.
35:46We all love Florence.
35:48It was calculating.
35:50I figured Susan owed me.
35:53And I had a really poor round.
35:56None of what you've said has made any sense whatsoever.
36:01Statistically, Susan was the worst player.
36:04But it's votes that count.
36:08Florence.
36:10You should have let them play ball in the house.
36:13Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
36:18Two votes.
36:19You are the weakest link.
36:20Bye.
36:21Bye-bye.
36:22Thank you all.
36:24Thank you all.
36:26Goodbye.
36:27Goodbye, Anne.
36:28Thank you all.
36:30Thank you all.
36:31Woo!
36:32Woo!
36:32Woo!
36:33Woo!
36:36Woo!
36:37Woo!
36:40I definitely think that Chris was terrified because he knew if I were the last one, I would
36:47beat him.
36:50Round seven, team.
36:53You've banked $44,000 out of a possible three quarters of a million dollars.
36:59This time, you have 90 seconds.
37:02But whatever you win in this round will be doubled and added to your total to make up your
37:08final grand prize money.
37:12So $250,000 is at stake in this round.
37:16You voted off the strongest link from the last round.
37:21We'll start with the second strongest link.
37:24That's you, Chris.
37:26Let's play The Weakest Link.

39:09Between you, you managed to bank $2,500.
39:14We'll double it and add it to the bank from the previous rounds.
39:17That means a grand total tonight of $49,000.
39:22But only one of these two players can take that money home.
39:26The other will leave with nothing.
39:28The final round will decide it all when we return to The Weakest Link.

43:05I'm really, really grateful that there weren't any musical questions, because I would have
