00:06Take a risk, take a chance, take a dare, play the game of Double Dare, with the host of
00:19Double Dare, Alex Trevick!
00:25Thank you very much, hi everyone, and welcome once again to our game of Knowledge and Nerve.
00:32That's what our players need if they are to succeed on this show, and we've got one player
00:36who has been succeeding very well, and I would like Johnny to introduce him right now, our
00:40champion.
00:41All right, Alex, here's our returning champion, Mr. Alan Lusher.
00:45Hello, Alan.
00:47Hi, Alex.
00:48You always seem so surprised to see me when that thing opens.
00:51I'm always surprised to be here.
00:53Listen, there's no reason for you to be surprised, because you have done fantastically well so
00:57far.
00:58His total winnings, in cash, $19,700.
01:02That'd be pretty good about that, right?
01:04New Year's off to a great start.
01:06Okay.
01:07Sit quietly for a moment there, and we will introduce your opponent.
01:11Challenging, Alan Lusher, is Judy Ross.
01:13Hello, Judy.
01:14Hello.
01:17You said on our last show that your little boy has a pony, and if...
01:21No, he would like a pony.
01:22He would like a pony, and if you do really well, he would name the pony Double Dare.
01:26Yes, that's what Adam said.
01:27Yeah, well, so far, you're not doing that well.
01:29Well...
01:30You've got $50 in cash, right?
01:32Yes.
01:32But you are trailing the champion.
01:33The champion has a big total up there, $400.
01:36He's close to winning the game.
01:38Let's see what you can do about moving up.
01:40All you need is a correct answer and a successful Dare and Double Dare, and you'll be tied with
01:45him.
01:46Think you can do that?
01:46Yes, yes, yes.
01:47Okay, then we'll get right onto it, and I will tell our home audience that if you'd
01:51like to play along with us, then turn your eyes away from the television screen right
01:54now, because we're going to show you the correct answer for our first subject.
01:58All right?
01:58Here it is.
02:01Now you can look, and I will tell our players that the subject is a person.
02:05Wish you good luck, and here is clue number one.
02:08She says, for only one thing will I abandon my pleasant solitude, to play poker.
02:15Judy thinks she knows the answer on that clue.
02:18Greta Garbo.
02:20Incorrect, Judy.
02:21Sorry, we close you off.
02:22We bring Alan back.
02:24Judy buzzed in quickly, but she gave us a wrong answer, Alan, so good news for you, the
02:28penalty clue, and a free guess.
02:30Here is clue number two.
02:32In 1949, in a dress made from pink window curtain, she entered a beauty contest for the
02:37Queen of the Sea.
02:39What's your answer, Alan?
02:42Julie Andrews.
02:44You are incorrect.
02:46Judy, however, will never get a look at that clue.
02:48Let's bring her back.
02:50No right answer yet, Judy.
02:51You're in it, as is Alan, and we're going on to the next clue.
02:56She could hardly speak English when she was hired to star in the 1957 film, The Pride and
03:00the Passion.
03:01Judy's got the answer this time.
03:02Sophia Loren.
03:03Sophia Loren.
03:04It takes you up to $100, Judy.
03:05And it's dare time.
03:07Let's look at the next clue.
03:09Her sister was once married to Mussolini's son, Romano.
03:13All right, you've got $100.
03:15Our champion, Alan Lusher, has $400.
03:16Okay, I'm going to dare him.
03:18Fine.
03:18Let's bring Alan back.
03:20She gets the right answer.
03:22It won't be the game.
03:22Alan, she's taking the dare.
03:23Here's the clue for you.
03:30I have a sneaky suspicion you knew it before the clue.
03:32What's the answer?
03:33Sophia Loren.
03:33Yes, she did.
03:35All right, he's got $450, Judy.
03:37You have $100.
03:38He's just one right answer away from taking the championship once again.
03:42And we are just about three seconds away from a commercial brand.
03:46We're coming back after this.
03:51In case I didn't mention it a few minutes ago, a game on Double Dare is $500.
03:56And at the moment, our champion, Alan Lusher, is one correct answer away from the game.
04:01He's got $450.
04:02Judy Ross, his challenger, has $100.
04:04She's taking her glasses off.
04:05Let's see if that changes your luck, Judy.
04:07We're going to show the folks at home.
04:08I have to put them back on.
04:09You're going to put them back on to read the clues?
04:11Okay, let's show the folks at home the right answer for our next subject.
04:16And I will tell you, players, that the subject this time is a thing.
04:20Here we go.
04:21Clue number one.
04:21Let's have some fun with this.
04:23A clock made entirely of parts from one of these reportedly keeps very good time.
04:30Next clue.
04:32A 64-acre plant of Raleigh Industries planned to make 2,000 of them in 1975.
04:40Third clue.
04:41When the Wright brothers were not testing airplanes, they repaired these for a living, and that's Alan Lusher's buzzer.
04:47Alan, the right answer.
04:48And you've got another championship.
04:50Bicycles.
04:50You are right.
04:51You've got $500.
04:52You've got that.
04:53Judy, he got bicycles.
04:55That was the right answer.
04:56Sorry, but you've got $100 with our compliment.
04:59Goodbye.
04:59Double Dare.
05:04Well, once more into the brief.
05:06Once more into the brief.
05:07All right, so let's bring on the spoilers.
05:10Stand over here.
05:14All right, Alan.
05:16Because your total is now $20,200, you have exceeded the Double Dare limit for going into this particular point.
05:28You have won over $20,000, so this is going to be your last chance to face the spoilers.
05:33Okay?
05:33And you can win up to $25,000.
05:37So let's introduce the spoilers.
05:39Spoiler number one is Dr. Barry Rattia.
05:43Spoiler number two is Dr. Jim Brock.
05:46And spoiler number three is Dr. Perry Thorndike.
05:50We had these same spoilers on our last show.
05:53You took Double Dare for $5,000.
05:55You managed to get the clues past them.
05:58Here is the board with the eight clues you're going to be working with today.
06:01You have to give four of them to the spoilers and hope that they don't come up with the right
06:06answers.
06:06Every time they miss, you win $100.
06:08If you can get just one spoiler to miss on all four clues, then you've got $5,000.
06:13Let's look at the top of the board for the right answer.
06:17There it is.
06:18Lucille Ball.
06:19A person, obviously.
06:20Pick a clue.
06:21Number six.
06:23Her husband, Desiderio Alberto Arnaz Ideraja III, said of her,
06:30That's a honka woman.
06:32Want to give it or pass?
06:34I'll pass.
06:36Okay.
06:37One pass used.
06:38Pick another clue.
06:39Number four.
06:41Number four.
06:43In her first major television show, she played Mrs. Ricky Ricardo.
06:48We passed that one, too.
06:50Two passes.
06:52Okay.
06:53Number three.
06:56During the communist witch hunt of the 50s, her husband said the only thing read about this kid is her
07:02hair.
07:04It's kind of ambiguous for the first clue.
07:06Let's give it to him.
07:07All right, fine.
07:08Spoilers.
07:09The subject is a person.
07:11And here is the clue.
07:12During the communist witch hunt of the 50s, her husband said the only thing read about this kid is her
07:20hair.
07:20We'll go to Dr. Rotea, first of all.
07:23Need an answer.
07:25Too much time.
07:26Too much time.
07:27So you get $100.
07:28We'll go on to our next spoiler.
07:31Dr. Brock, your answer.
07:33No answer.
07:35All right.
07:35That's another $100.
07:36Let's go to Dr. Thorndike.
07:38Spoiler number three.
07:40Olivia de Havilland.
07:40Olivia de Havilland is wrong.
07:42$300.
07:43You've managed to...
07:45I'm done.
07:46Get one clue past three spoilers.
07:48Pick another.
07:49Number seven.
07:52When she became pregnant a second time, it was incorporated into the plot of her television show.
07:58Let's give it to him.
07:59I'll give it to him.
08:00I'll give it to him, he says.
08:01All right.
08:01Spoilers.
08:03When she became pregnant a second time, it was incorporated into the plot of her television show.
08:09We'll go to Dr. Rotea, first of all.
08:11Lucille Ball.
08:12Lucille Ball is the right answer, and you've just won $100, Dr. Rotea.
08:17And the other spoilers did not hear his answer, so let's go now to spoiler number two.
08:21Dr. Brock.
08:22Lucille Ball.
08:23Dr. Brock, two days in a row for you.
08:26A right answer.
08:27You've won another $100.
08:28Well, all we've got to do now is work on number three.
08:32Let's go to Dr. Thorndike.
08:34Your answer, please, Dr. Thorndike.
08:35Lucille Ball.
08:37Dr. Thorndike, you are correct.
08:38That means you have won $100.
08:40Spoilers, you have done very well today.
08:42Thank you very much, and goodbye to you.
08:44And, Alan, we're going to be saying goodbye to you also, but you're not going away empty-handed by any
08:50means.
08:50$300 in cash this round with the spoilers, and that means for Double Dare as our big money-winning champ,
08:57$20,500.
08:59Our congratulations.
09:00Much luck to you in the future.
09:02We're going to take a break, ladies and gentlemen, and then introduce two new players.
09:10Welcome back to Double Dare.
09:11I'm feeling a little strange right now, because for the first time in over a week, I will be looking
09:15into our Champions booth and not seeing Alan Lusher.
09:18But let's find out who we do have in there.
09:20One of our players.
09:21Johnny?
09:22All right, Alex.
09:23Meet Kim Leach.
09:24Hi, Kim.
09:25Great brief.
09:26Tell me about yourself.
09:27Well, I'm a native Californian from Torrance.
09:29I'm an audiovisual specialist, and I get a real kick out of acting on stage.
09:33Okay.
09:33Good luck to you on the program.
09:34Hope you wind up winning lots of cash.
09:36Let's meet your opponent.
09:37Here is Michael Cowell.
09:39Hello, Michael.
09:40Hi, Alex.
09:41Hello.
09:41What kind of words do you do?
09:43I'm an attorney.
09:44A what?
09:44An attorney.
09:45An attorney.
09:45I was going to say that, because you look as if you belong in a courtroom there.
09:49You've got the vest on and everything.
09:50You win most of your cases?
09:51Yeah, I think so.
09:52Okay, I don't want to get into doing plugs for you, but I'll just wish you good luck.
09:56You know, of course, that a game is $500.
09:58You are both familiar with how we play the game, right?
10:01So we're going to go right into it, and we'll start off, as we always do, by showing our home
10:05audience the right answer.
10:10The first subject players is a person.
10:12Game is $500.
10:14Here we go.
10:14Clue number one.
10:15She calls her chili con carne, the Peter Nally's River Special.
10:20Next clue.
10:22In 1943, she bought a debt-ridden radio station and turned it into a multi-million dollar operation.
10:27And that's Michael's buzzer.
10:30I'll take a chance at Lady Bird Johnson.
10:32You're right.
10:32That's a good chance to take.
10:34$50 for you, Michael.
10:35And you are now in a dare situation.
10:38Let's look at the next clue together.
10:40She calls Thomas Jefferson my favorite other president.
10:44That's the dare clue.
10:45You can give it to Kim and gamble that he won't know the answer.
10:48If it works out that way, you'll have an extra $100.
10:50If he gets it, it'll be tied.
10:51$50 apiece.
10:52I'll take the dare.
10:53You'll take the dare?
10:54All right.
10:54Let's bring Kim back.
10:58Michael's in the lead.
10:58He got a right answer.
10:59$50 in cash.
11:00He's taken the dare.
11:01You've got five seconds to look at this clue, Kim.
11:10Your answer, please.
11:12Betty Ford.
11:12You are wrong.
11:13We close you off.
11:14We give Michael $100 more.
11:16That takes him to $150.
11:17And it's double dare time, Michael.
11:19Before you make up your mind, let's look at the clue.
11:22To meet their entertaining obligations, she and her husband bought Pearl Mesta's luxurious
11:26home in Washington, D.C.
11:28That's the double dare clue.
11:30A possible extra $200 for you.
11:31I'll take the dare.
11:32Okay.
11:33Let's bring Kim Leach back.
11:35Double dare time, Kim.
11:37He has taken it.
11:37All right, and you've got five seconds to look at this clue.
11:46What is it, Kim?
11:48Lady Bird Johnson.
11:49You are right.
11:49Lady Bird Johnson.
11:50Almost a throwaway there, player.
11:53That means you now have $100.
11:56Michael has $250.
11:57We should take those scores back.
11:59$250 for Michael and $100 for Kim.
12:02Michael, you're leading.
12:03No, Michael should have $150.
12:04I'm sorry.
12:05I'm getting confused now.
12:06$150 for Michael and $100 for Kim.
12:08And we are going on to another subject.
12:11We got it.
12:12We'll get it organized.
12:13Meanwhile, you folks at home take a look at the correct answer for our next subject.
12:21This time, we're looking for a thing, and the scores are now correct.
12:25$150 to $100.
12:26Here is the first clue.
12:28It cost some $30,000 a month to operate and never showed a profit.
12:36Next clue.
12:38The London Illustrated News sent a reporter all the way to St. Joe, Missouri to cover it.
12:45Third clue.
12:47Genghis Khan set up a similar system some 1,000 years earlier.
12:54Moving on to clue number four.
12:56It began operating on April 3rd, 1860 and continued for about 19 months.
13:02Remember, the subject is a thing.
13:04Clue number five.
13:06Buffalo Bill went to work for it when he was only 15 years old.
13:10Michael Cowell thinks he knows the answer.
13:13I will take a guess in this one at the railroad.
13:15The railroad is incorrect.
13:17So we close you off and we bring Kim back.
13:19Michael gave us the wrong answer that time, Kim.
13:22So you get a bonus.
13:23You get a look at this clue all by yourself, and we'll give you a free guess.
13:27Dime novels and Wild West shows made it glamorous.
13:32What's your answer?
13:35No answer?
13:36All right.
13:36Michael will never see that clue, so we'll bring him back right now.
13:39And we'll get the two of you going again for this clue.
13:42Clue number seven.
13:43It was killed by the building of transcontinental telegraph lines.
13:47Michael's back in on the buzzer.
13:49I'm taking a chance this time in the Pony Express.
13:51Pony Express.
13:52You are right.
13:52You're up to $200.
13:54That's twice.
13:55Kim Leach is winnings.
13:57Let's look at the dare clue together.
14:00Only one of its riders was killed by Indians,
14:03though most of its route was through hostile territory.
14:06Do you want to take that?
14:07No, I think I'll have to pass that one.
14:08All right, let's bring Kim back.
14:12Michael got the right answer, and he's decided to pass on our dare.
14:16The dare clue was this one.
14:18Only one of its riders was killed by Indians,
14:20though most of its route was through hostile territory.
14:22Kim, you think the Pony Express you'd have known at that time?
14:25All right.
14:26He has $200, and you, Kim, have $100,
14:28and we have a commercial break to take,
14:30and we'll do that right now.
14:35Michael Cowell and Kim Leach are the two newcomers to Double Dare.
14:39We have competing in this game,
14:40and right now Michael is leading.
14:42$200.
14:43Kim Leach has $100.
14:44We're going on to another subject,
14:45and we show you the right answer.
14:50Here we go.
14:51Clue number one.
14:52Who is this?
14:54Pope Pius XII asked if this man had children,
14:57and he replied,
14:57Know your holiness,
14:58but we're having a lot of fun trying.
15:02Clue number two.

15:21Number five.
15:22Some of his pallbearers were Frank Sinatra,
15:25Nelson Rockefeller,
15:26Duke Ellington,
15:26and Bing Crosby.
15:28Clue number six.
15:30He suffered from chronically calloused lips.
15:34And Michael buzzes in.
15:37A guess at Louis Armstrong.
15:39Another good guess for Michael.
15:42Michael, you seem to lack a little confidence.
15:45Every time you buzz in,
15:46you say,
15:46Well, I'm going to take a guess.
15:48I think it might be this.
15:49Be more forceful.
15:50Just chunk in there with me.
15:51Very confident after you tell me I'm right.
15:51Okay, you've got $250.
15:53It's dare time for you.
15:55A chance to pick up another $100.
15:56Here is the dare clue.
15:58He starred as a sideman
15:59in King Oliver's Creole Jazz Band.
16:02Why not?
16:03Let's dare him.
16:03Why not?
16:03All right, let's bring Kim back.
16:06Michael came up with the right answer,
16:08and he's taken the dare.
16:09You've got five seconds to look at this clue, Kim.
16:17Kim, your answer?
16:18Louis Armstrong.
16:19Louis Armstrong is right.
16:20All right.
16:20$100 separating our two players again.
16:23Let's go on to another subject, shall we?
16:25You folks take a look at the right answer.
16:29Now, the first clue.
16:33He still remembers vividly the first movie he ever saw, Black Beauty.
16:39Clue number two.
16:46Clue number two.
16:48In 1944, he wrote the screenplay for Torment for film director Alf Stolberg.
16:56Michael Cowell.
16:57Ingmar Bergman.
16:57You're right.
16:58See?
16:59You got a right answer, even without saying I'm going to take a guess on it.
17:01And you now have $300.
17:03You've got double what Kim's financial total is right now, and you're in a dare spot.
17:08Here is the clue.
17:10About his own films, he said, a woman's world is my world.
17:14I know no other.
17:15That's the dare clue, Michael.
17:16A chance for you to go to $400 if it works.
17:19I'll take the dare.
17:20Let's bring Kim back.
17:22Michael got the right answer.
17:23He has taken the dare once again, and this is the clue for you, Kim.
17:34Your answer.
17:36Horses and Lens.
17:37You're wrong.
17:38We close you off, and we give Michael $100.
17:41He now has $400, and it's double dare time, and a chance for you, Michael, to become the
17:46new champion on the program.
17:48Here is the double dare clue.
17:50Government officials arrested him for tax evasion while he was rehearsing a Strindberg
17:54play.
17:55If you take the double dare and it works, you'll have $600.
17:59You'll be the new champ.
18:00If it doesn't work, Kim picks up $100, and he goes to $250.
18:03He would still trail you by $150.
18:06That's worth noting.
18:07I'll take the double dare.
18:09All right.
18:11Bring Kim back in.
18:14He's taken the double dare.
18:15Five seconds for you, Kim.
18:17Look at this clue carefully.
18:24Your answer, Kim?
18:25Fitzgerald.
18:26Fitzgerald is wrong.

18:33And our good wishes for a happy new year.
18:36Come on.
18:36That's fine.
18:38Congratulations.
18:42Now, you got that one in good shape, you know?
18:45Do you feel that your performance is different when you preface your answer by saying,
18:52I think I'm going to guess on it, or when you come right out and say it?
18:56Well, right now, I feel lucky.
18:57I may just stay with that.
18:58You feel lucky?
18:59You may stay with that?
19:00All right.
19:00Well, you've done very nicely.
19:01You wound up with $600 in cash, and you're going to get a chance that the spoilers for a
19:06possible $5,000, but right now, though, we want to take a break for an important commercial

19:23Do you practice in courtrooms?
19:25Yes.
19:26Do you find usually, or can we generalize, that a delay in court proceedings is usually
19:31beneficial to your client?
19:34It depends.
19:34If the client's in custody, no.
19:36No?
19:36All right.
19:37Well, you're not in custody, and we're going to have to delay until our next program,
19:41Your Shot at the Spoilers, for the $5,000.
19:43I hope you won't mind coming back on our next program?
19:45Not in the least.
19:45Okay.
19:46If it's any encouragement to you, our last champion wound up winning over $20,000 on Double
