01:28Nice to have you here.
01:30It's very great to have Betty here.
01:33Your first partner tonight, Betty, is...
01:35What kind of a honeymoon did you have?
01:36You have.
01:45This is my show, and I ask the question.
01:48How are you, Bob Ware?
01:49What do you do for a living?
01:50I'm the attorney, Alan.
01:51Are you married?
01:52Yes, I am.
01:53Two children.
01:54Good.
01:55Good.
01:56Jack, you've really been recommending this institution of marriage,
01:59and I want to say that I appreciate all the good words you had to say for it.
02:03How long have you been married?
02:04Uh, 19...
02:0619 years.
02:07Would you have been nervous if you were in my position tonight?
02:11Well, if you don't know now, kid, there's not much I can tell you about the whole thing.
02:15It's really a great thrill to have you here, Betty.
02:18I'm delighted because she's an old friend of mine for many, many years with my wives and daughters.
02:21Yes.
02:22Thank you, Jim.
02:23And it's real nice to have these old friends back together again, and I'm glad to be here in the middle.
02:28Anna, how are you tonight?
02:29Fine, thank you.
02:30Anna Zarelli, are you married?
02:32Yes, I'm married, and I have a little boy two years old.
02:34Well, good.
02:35We've got a whole lot of old married people.
02:37We're gonna play password right now, and you know how we do it?
02:39It's a game of word communication where you try to make your partner say the password using one-word clues,
02:43and I'll give the first password tonight to Betty White and the very same password to Jack Parr,
02:50and as they look at it, we'd like you to look at it at home.
02:52The password is stage.

06:37Oh!
06:42That's my fault.
06:43The word was ruled...
06:44The clue was ruled out because he said Randy, and it was...
06:47See, that is contained within the word.
06:49I misunderstood you and thought you were...
06:51I thought you said the word.
06:52Are you apologizing?
06:53Yes.
06:54You accept it.
06:55We thought you were gonna cry first.
06:56Is that illegal, what I said?
06:59No, yes.
07:00That was illegal, but I shouldn't have thrown it out.
07:02I should have just moved it right back to Betty.
07:03Sure.
07:04But I blew the whole thing.
07:05So we're gonna throw the word.
07:06We're gonna throw the word out and start all over.
07:07Oh.
07:08I would have won that.
07:09What would you have said?
07:10We don't use as a clue any word contained within the password.
07:12She was gonna say La Cour, anyhow.
07:13Oh, all right.
07:14Bob and Anne have the word.

22:38I don't know what to be there.
22:40Would you think I was being very partial or at all partisan if I said, I thought that Betty
22:46White played that lightning round marvelously?
22:48Oh, did you like the answers, Alan?
22:50Yeah.
22:50Oh, wow.
22:51I thought she did that very well.
22:54What are you going to do this summer, Betty?

23:16I certainly will, Ms. Ludden.
23:18Good night.
