11:40Fine.
11:41All right.
11:42Do you have enough golf balls now?
11:44Thank you very much, girls.
11:45Now, remember, you've got five seconds.
11:47I'm going to let you throw the first ball.
11:49Then the clock will start.
11:51And go!
11:55Stop the clock!
11:58Woo-hoo!
11:59Fantastic!
12:00You made it.
12:01You beat the clock.
12:02That's great.
12:03Come on over here.
12:04There's two of you.
12:05Wow, that was close.
12:07Now, you know what you have to do.
12:08Select a letter.
12:09Tell me what it's going to be.
12:10And I'll tell you what you've won.
12:13Tea?
12:14Tea and beef?
12:15They want the tea and beef,
12:17which means they have won $25.
12:21And they'll move right into your second stunt.
12:24John, John Forsythe,
12:25would you come up here, please?
12:26I'd like you to meet these two folks,
12:28John Forsythe.
12:29This is John and Bev.
12:30Fine.
12:31Now, all of you come this way with me,
12:32if you will, please.
12:33And, John,
12:34what I want you to do
12:35is put your arms right through there,
12:37if you will.
12:38And now, Bev,
12:39you come and put your arms
12:40right through that hole
12:41in the back of this flat.
12:42Now, Johnny,
12:43you come on over here with me.
12:44And as quickly as you can,
12:45I would like you folks
12:46to put your hands
12:47in those little shoes.
12:48That's the idea.
12:49Excellent.
12:50Now, you just step right over
12:51next to me, John.
12:52We're going to have ourselves
12:53a little football game here.
12:55And here's the way
12:56that it's going to go.
12:57You are going to be the quarterback.
12:59Actually, you're going to be
13:00the center, John.
13:01You will put the ball here
13:02between Bev's feet.
13:03Then, Bev,
13:04you will pick up the ball
13:05and you will put it
13:06between John's feet.
13:07Then, John will place-kick
13:09the football through the goal here.
13:12And if he gets one ball
13:13through the goal,
13:14you will have beaten the clock.
13:16Now, let's see how much time
13:17we have on the clock.
13:19We have exactly 55 seconds.
13:21Now, Johnny,
13:22you come and stand up here,
13:23my friend.
13:24Let me get out of the way.
13:25Gail will provide you
13:26with additional balls.
13:27This is a tense moment, friends.
13:28The place-kicking specialist
13:30John Forsythe
13:31is in position.
13:32And it's just 55 seconds to go.
13:34Are you ready?
13:35And go!
13:50No, almost.
13:56Stop the clock!
13:59Hey!
14:00Sensational, John!
14:01You did it!
14:03What a pleasure.
14:04What a pleasure.
14:05Great. Fine.
14:07I tell you what you do, John.
14:08If you'll have yourself
14:09a seat over there on the bench,
14:10we'll bring our young friends
14:11back here to the cashboard
14:13once more after that
14:14big football game.
14:15What letter would you like
14:16this time?
14:19C in clock.
14:20The C in clock.
14:21Which C do you want in clock?
14:23The first C.
14:24You agreed on that?
14:25Fine.
14:26Then, that means
14:27that John and Bev
14:28have won
14:2950 more dollars!
14:31And good news!
14:32You get a chance
14:33to win some more
14:34because John Forsythe
14:35is coming up
14:36against the clock solo.
14:37So keep looking, friends.
14:38We're coming back
14:39right after these messages.
14:41If you have...
14:43Hey, John and Bev.
14:44In addition to the cash,
14:45we have something for you.
14:46Here's Nick
14:47to tell you what it is.
14:48An assortment of magic products
14:49for all your home cleaning needs.
14:51Quality home care products
14:52including aerosol cleaner,
14:53beautifiers for wood paneling
14:55and cabinets, appliances
14:56and tile.
14:59Very well.
15:00And now, once again,
15:02John Forsythe
15:03makes his appearance
15:04on our stage.
15:05And this time,
15:06he's going up against
15:07the clock solo.
15:08I tell you what, John.
15:09You just come right down
15:10here with me, if you will.
15:11And would you put that glove...
15:12May I call you
15:13about anything?
15:14May I call you
15:15about something?
15:16John, John, John.
15:17Yes?
15:18The sun's over here.
15:19Oh, yes, yes.
15:20You're fine.
15:21You're right here.
15:22Am I going to get
15:23a present for this?
15:24You certainly are.
15:25No, not that one.
15:26All right.
15:27I don't need the luggage,
15:28you know.
15:29Yes, I know.
15:31Well, I got a line here
15:32that'd turn this place
15:33into a garage.
15:36All right.
15:37Now, thank you.
15:38You better flee
15:39while you can, Warner.
15:40All right.
15:41This telephone,
15:42I want you to hold
15:43by the yellow tape.
15:44I'm going to take
15:45the receiver off.
15:46All you have to do
15:47to beat the clock, John,
15:48is by jiggling this phone
15:49up and down,
15:50swinging it back and forth
15:51whatever way you want,
15:52using one hand only,
15:53get this receiver
15:54either this way
15:55or, if you wish,
15:56that way.
15:57Either way is all right.
15:58If you want, also,
15:59if it's swinging too much,
16:00I'm going to allow you
16:01to steady the receiver
16:02on the floor.
16:03You can touch it
16:04just to steady it
16:05before you pick it up again.
16:06Fine?
16:07All right?
16:08You got the idea?
16:09Good.
16:10Let's take a look at the clock,
16:11see how much time
16:12the clock gives you
16:13to do that.
16:14It gives you one minute.
16:15Now we turn to our couples.
16:16Prim, Rekha,
16:17how do you want to bet?
16:18On the clock or the star?
16:19On the star.
16:20They're going to bet on John.
16:21Fine.
16:22Johnny and Bev,
16:23all right, you bet the right way.
16:24You win an additional $50.
16:26All right.
16:27Are you all set, John?
16:29And go.
16:42I'll untangle it for you.
16:54I'll untangle it for you.
17:12Stop the clock.
17:14Sensational.
17:16That was just sensational.
17:19And both of our couples
17:20bet on the star,
17:21which means that both
17:22of our couples receive
17:23an additional $50.
17:28That's just great.
17:34What it needs is a steady hand
17:35and a weak mind.
17:37And I have that.
17:38Well, you have more than that,
17:39I'll tell you, my friend.
17:41Well, anyway, you did it,
17:42and win or lose,
17:43we always have a gift
17:44for our guest stars.
17:45Here's Nick.
17:46Wait a minute.
17:47Hold it.
17:50Hello?
17:51Yes?
17:52John Forsythe?
17:53Yes, it's Nick.
17:54He wants to tell you
17:55what you won.
17:56Ah, what did I win, Nick?
17:58John, you won a lively
17:59selection of St. Mary's
18:00ultra-smooth pergale sheets
18:01and pillowcases

18:05for the bedroom, John.
18:06Goodbye.
18:07That's what I need.
18:09Hang it up.
18:10All right.
18:12Ah, modern, modern show
18:13we have.
18:14And now, we're going
18:15into our Beat the Clock
18:16playoff.
18:17Both couples,
18:18will you come this way
18:19with me, if you will, please?
18:20Right up this way.
18:21John, would you go
18:22over to Gail?
18:23She's going to put
18:24a microphone around you.
18:25You'll help me judge
18:26this stunt.
18:27Ladies, I would like you
18:28to stand on the mats,
18:29if you will.
18:30Gentlemen, I want you
18:31to stand at the edge
18:32of the table,
18:33right behind your partners.
18:34That's it.
18:35Go right over there, John.
18:36That's the way.
18:37Fine.
18:38I'm going to be right
18:39here in the middle.
18:40And that's right.
18:41Prem, just stand a little
18:42over to this side,
18:43if you will.
18:44Now, you'll notice,
18:45friends, on the table,
18:46we have various types
18:47of fruit.
18:48We have a lemon,
18:49we have an orange,
18:50we also have
18:51three bananas.
18:52Both tables
18:53are identical,
18:54the same.
18:55Now, here's how the race
18:56is going to be run.
18:57When I say,
18:58go,
18:59gentlemen,
19:00you'll pick up
19:01one of the fruit,
19:02and you will dash down
19:03to your partner
19:04and transfer the fruit
19:05to your partner.
19:06And then,
19:07she in turn,
19:08taking the fruit from you,
19:09will place the fruit
19:10in this clear fruit bowl,
19:11like that.
19:12Now, the first team
19:13that gets all of the fruit
19:14into their fruit bowl
19:15will be the winners.
19:16However,
19:17one thing, gentlemen,
19:18your hands must be
19:19behind your back.
19:20Hands behind your back,
19:21Johnny.
19:22And you must pick up
19:23and transfer the fruit
19:24using your teeth only.
19:26Ladies,
19:27put your hands
19:28behind your back,
19:29if you will.
19:30Hands behind your back,
19:31friends.
19:32Fine.
19:33Now, if any of the fruit
19:34drops,
19:35it will be replaced
19:36by Warner and Margo.
19:37Now, let's find out
19:38what our winners will get.
