00:00It's a movie, tomorrow at two.
00:07From television city in Hollywood, this is the $25,000 Pyramid.
00:33Today's special guests are Joanne Whirly and Bill Cullen.
00:40Your host is Dick Clark.
00:44Hello there.
00:46Thank you, Jack Clark, very much.
00:48We welcome you to the $25,000 Pyramid.
00:50You know when these two folks are playing the game that I'm in for trouble.
00:54Joanne, do you have any idea how many times you've played the $5,000 Pyramid?
00:58Twelve million!
01:01It's only a test. Don't adjust your sets. Everything will be alright in a moment.
01:04I said the $5,000 Pyramid. I'm saving money today because I know you're going to be generous with it.
01:09Your partner is a new player. This is Laurel Yates. Where are you from, Laurel?
01:12From Alameda, right outside of Oakland.
01:14And what do you do when you're not with us?
01:16I'm in sales and I'm a new mother of a four-month-old baby girl that's beautiful named Taryn.
01:21Taryn? How do you spell Taryn?
01:23T-A-R-R-I-N.
01:24We'll dedicate the game to her along the way, but we should give equal time to everybody.
01:28Bill, how are you, sir?
01:29Hello, Dick.
01:30I have wondered, as I mentioned to the audience over the years,
01:32do you have any idea how many games you've participated in, either as an emcee or as a player?
01:37Well, well into the thousands. Ten thousand and up.
01:40Oh, God, it's got to be more than that, doesn't it?
01:42Yeah, I guess, but it gives away my age. Okay, 143,000 shows.
01:48I like that number. Cindy, you've been here before, this Cindy Cribb, by the way.
01:52You won a trip to Mexico, I know that. What about the money?
01:55I won $13,000 so far.
01:57Very good.
01:59Let's start. Bill, what do you do when you're not with us?
02:01I'm with a pharmaceutical company out in the South Bay area of California.
02:05We wish you all the very best and good luck, folks.
02:07Our winner's circle awaits all of you with two really comfortable red chairs.
02:11We're not going to have them electrified or anything.
02:13You just sit in there and win the money, $10,000, $25,000 at a throw.
02:17Joanne, these are your subjects since you're going to start us off. Let me run them by you.
02:20We have The Rice is Right by Hooker by Crook, Heart Beats, Deep Six It, Come Play With Me, Kitty Litter.
02:29We have a 7-Eleven to play in the first game as a bonus card when it turns up.
02:32Joanne, what would you like?
02:33We think Kitty Litter might be something this lady who has a new baby might know about.
02:37Well, I'm afraid your kid's a little young for this sort of thing.
02:40But these are things that kids collect.
02:43Things that kids collect.
02:45Ready, go.
02:47You close your blouse with it.
02:49And they spin these on a turntable.
02:52Records albums.
02:53And this is you put together a crossword or a jigsaw.
02:56And this is from movie stars who get them to write their name.
02:59Autograph.
03:00And this is Monopoly.
03:02Parker Brothers.
03:03And this is a bunch of trash.
03:05Junk.
03:06And this is Aggies and things and they play your game.
03:08Marbles.
03:09That's got it.
03:10You can't get a better score than 7 out of 7.
03:13Laurel and Joanne, 7-pointer.
03:16Bill and Cindy up on deck now.
03:18Bill, I bet you I know the one you're going to take.
03:20Which one is it?
03:21I don't know.
03:22You know, I look up there and dig.
03:23Those are all shows that at one time or another
03:25I've done.
03:26That's what I mean.
03:28Which one would you like?
03:29I'm going to surprise you, Dick, and take Heartbeats
03:31because I am of a medical bent.
03:33All right, let's see if you can figure out
03:35what these things are that make the heart beat faster.
03:39Things that make the heart beat faster.
03:42Ready, go.
03:44A spook.
03:45A ghost.
03:47It makes noise on a fire engine.
03:49The siren.
03:50That's right.
03:51When you go to try to get a job, part of the play.
03:53Auditioning.
03:54That's good.
03:55When you have a wreck, it's an...
03:56Crash.
03:57An...
03:58Automobile wreck.
03:59It's something you don't do on purpose.
04:01Accident.
04:02That's it.
04:03A jury hands down a...
04:0430.
04:06You do these...
04:07It's a fancy word for exercise.
04:08Fly.
04:09Exercise.
04:10Aerobics.
04:11A fancier word.
04:12Pass it.
04:13Okay, next one, please.
04:14He wiggled his hips and played the game.
04:15All right, Elvis.
04:16Callisthenics.
04:17Callisthenics.
04:18Cindy, stand by.
04:20And, Laurel, you make your first selection
04:22with the 7-11 still in the game.
04:24We're going to go with The Rice is Right.
04:25The Rice is Right.
04:26I was sure that was the one Bill was gonna do.
04:28He should have.
04:29A couple of days ago or a few years back.
04:32You are to describe these things associated with rice.
04:35Okay.
04:36Things associated with rice.
04:37Ready.
04:38Go.

04:42You throw this at a...
04:43Wedding.
04:45The Joker's...
04:46Wild.
04:47Yeah.
04:48You eat Chinese food with this.
04:49Chapsticks.
04:51It's...
04:52You make it real quick.
04:53It's real fast.
04:54Instant.
04:55You do this in water.
04:56It comes to a...
04:57Boil.
04:58And it's real...
05:00Fluffy.
05:01Like a pillow.
05:02Fluffy.
05:03Yeah, great.
05:04That's it.
05:05Perfect show working over there.
05:0714 to 5.
05:09Cindy, we have by hook or by crook.
05:11Deep six it.
05:12Come play with me.
05:13Underneath one of those, there's a 7-11 card.
05:15It could be worth $1,100.
05:17By hook or by crook.
05:18Let's see if that's the one with it.
05:19It is indeed.
05:21Take your score off to 12 points and you win the bonus.
05:24Bill, she's going to describe things that have a hook.
05:27Things that have a hook.
05:29You need 12 points for the bonus.
05:30Ready?
05:31Go.
05:32Okay, it's a photo or a...
05:34An album, a picture.
05:35Right.
05:36Uh-huh.
05:37They're drapes or they're...
05:38Curtains.
05:39Okay.
05:40You put your suit on a...
05:41Hanger.
05:42In your closet.
05:43Uh-huh.
05:44I wear a...
05:45Blouse.
05:46Or underneath my blouse...
05:47A bra.
05:48Uh-huh.
05:49You put a hook.
05:50You put fishing...
05:51A worm.
05:52A bait.
05:53Uh-huh.
05:54You do this to a child.
05:55You...
05:56Swing.
05:57Uh-huh.
05:58And you throw one of these...
05:59Dart.
06:00Or a big one.
06:01It's called a...
06:02Arrow.
06:03Or a...
06:04A spear.
06:05You play a musical...
06:06A harp.
06:07Boom.
06:08Boom.
06:09A harpoon.
06:10As far as she was ready.
06:11Only thing I could think of is you pin one into a whale or something.
06:1214 to 11 is the score.
06:13Cindy and Bill, you're trailing.
06:14You have the last two to go with.
06:16Deep six it or come play with me.
06:18What would you like to play?
06:19Come play with me.
06:20You want to give or receive?
06:21I'll give.
06:22All right.
06:23Describe these things associated with a ball.
06:25Things associated with a ball.
06:27Ready.
06:28Go.
06:29Uh, you serve a...
06:30A tennis...
06:31A racket is tennis.
06:32Uh-huh.
06:33Uh, she lost her...
06:34Uh, glass slipper.
06:35A Cinderella.
06:36Mm-hmm.
06:37What you do to the ball.
06:38You toss it or you...
06:39Throw it.
06:40Uh-huh.
06:41Um, what a...
06:42A ball is made of that makes it bounce.
06:44It's...
06:45Rubber.
06:46Uh-huh.
06:47What's a...
06:48Quarterback.
06:49Uh-huh.
06:50Uh, rock and...
06:51Roll.
06:52Okay.
06:53And what you do to a golf, a small...
06:54Uh, the tee, uh...
06:55Just a small...
06:56Putt.
06:57Uh-huh.
06:58That's it.
06:59Cindy, you've been used to winning here before.
07:00Uh, I have a feeling that you're in the twilight zone here, 18 to 14.
07:08That's not too solid, but if you lose this round, you can play for the next round.
07:11That's fine.
07:12So all is not lost.
07:13Joanne, I've sort of given you the nod as the advantages with you, but, uh, I hope that's
07:16not a curse.
07:17You need five...
07:18Five out of seven to pull this out.
07:19You're gonna give?
07:20Uh-huh.
07:21All right, Joanne, she's going to describe these six-letter words.
07:24These are six-letter words, and they need 19 to win it.
07:27Ready, go.
07:29Um, you put your, uh, money in a...
07:31Pocket.
07:32You rock a baby in a...
07:33A crib.
07:34Uh, it rocks.
07:35Lock up on a rock...
07:36Cradle.
07:37Yeah, good.
07:38Um, uh, this is the blank Earth.
07:40Mother.
07:41No, Earth.
07:42Whole Earth.
07:43Globe.
07:44No, uh, Jupiter, Neptune.
07:45Um, you shoot with a small gun.
07:46Gun.
07:47Pistol.
07:48Mm-hmm.
07:49And this is, um, South America, where, um, it's the biggest place in South America.
07:53Uh, Brazil.
07:54Great.
07:55That's the 19 points.
07:56You win.
07:57Let's go to the winner's circle, ladies.
07:59Oh, you left your magic rubber band behind.
08:09I'm not sure after all of these years that anybody really appreciates what you people
08:13go through when you sit down in the circle, because the rest of us are just watching you sweat here.
08:17Uh, it's really, really easy, except when you sit in the chairs.
08:20The best thing to do then, Laurel, is to pretend that you're not playing the game,
08:24or you're just doing it at home with a friend or a neighbor, a relative, whatever,
08:27and, uh, just sort of sail on through.
08:30I am obliged to tell you that you're trying for $10,000, but if you can drop that out of your head
08:34and just get those pictures in there, you're gonna win the money.
08:37Let's do it.
08:38Here is your first subject.
08:40Go.
08:41The, uh, big hand, the little hand, the 12.
08:46This ass just bit me on the breast.
08:48What Cleopatra says.
08:51Because you're...
08:52He was cheating.
08:53Why you divorce your husband.
08:58Uh, an astrologist.
09:01A crystal ball.
09:02Things that predict the future.
09:06Your taxes this year are gonna be a lot.
09:08What your CPA says.
09:09An IBM machine.
09:10I'm sorry.
09:13An ex-husband.
09:15A girdle.
09:16Things that are tight.
09:19A bra.
09:20Things that pinch.
09:23A father, a divorced father.
09:25Oh, things that...
09:26A girdle.
09:27Things that pinch.
09:28A hernia girdle.
09:30Pinch, things that are tight, things that are...
09:32Things that hurt.
09:33A cinch.
09:34Things that...
09:36Uh, a hernia girdle.
09:41Things that hold you in.
09:42A bridge abutment.
09:46Oh, things that support you.
09:47You got it.
09:48I don't know whether I would have gotten it.
09:49The other one was...
09:50Might say is what I fell into.
09:52She interpreted what an accountant says rather than uses,
09:55and we were looking for the equipment.
09:56We could have gotten that one, too.
09:57Well, he probably could have.
09:59The IBM machine, your old bills,
10:01and everything you would have gotten, accountant.
10:03Well, let me add this thing up.
10:04Two, three, four, 50, $500.
10:06Back to play in the next round right after this.
10:16All righty, we're ready to roll in the second half
10:18of the $25,000 Pyramid.
10:20Bill, your partner's just won $500.
10:22And, Laurel, if you can win this round,
10:24you go back into that winner's circle and try for $25,000.
10:28It'll be you folks pitted against a lady
10:30who's waiting to win more money.
10:32Cindy, you've got $13,000 and a trip to Mexico so far.
10:35And, Joanne, you know how the game is played.
10:37We will start with you ladies in a second.
10:39Here are the subjects.
10:40We've got some work and some play.
10:41Wine, women, and song.
10:43Terra not so firma.
10:45Beneath it all, need a lift.
10:47I'm fading fast.
10:48We've got ourselves a mystery seven in this game.
10:50The contestant that wins...
10:52Yes, indeed, wins seven out of seven,
10:54wins a video cassette recorder.
10:56You can have a little psychic or intuitive feel
10:59as to where that thing is.
11:01Do you know where it is?
11:02Do, do, do, do, do, do.
11:04Some work and some play.
11:06Let's see if that's right.
11:07It's too tidy.
11:08Your antenna weren't working.
11:10No.
11:11Describe these part-time jobs.
11:13These are part-time jobs.
11:15Ready.
11:16Go.
11:17The guy who drives a long limo.
11:19The chauffeur.
11:20Fur.
11:21And this is a...
11:22Here are your seats, please.
11:23Step this way.
11:24Let me see your ticket stubs.
11:25In the theater, the guy with the flashlight.
11:26Let me show you to your seat.
11:27Pass it, please.
11:28I can't remember him.
11:29This is a tour person when you go to Italy.
11:31A guide.
11:32And this is...
11:33Your kid's dumb at school,
11:34you get him into the house to teach him.
11:35A tutor.
11:36This is the guy who cuts the lawns and the trees.
11:39The gardener.
11:40This is...
11:41He runs with a memo from one place to another.
11:45Air boy.
11:46He's a...
11:47Whoa.
11:48Whoa, whoa, whoa.
11:49Hold on.
11:50Missing her.
11:52Missing her.
11:53Did you guys skip the usher, was it?
11:55Yes, I couldn't think of it.
11:57Never seen one in your life, right?
12:00You will from now on, only ushers.
12:02Nightmares.
12:03It's always easy ones that leave you with a blank,
12:05and you say,
12:06I'm not gonna remember that.
12:07In any case, all right.
12:08Four out of seven.
12:09Bill, what would you like, sir?
12:10I think it's behind...
12:11I mean, the big seven is behind the need to lift.
12:13Need to lift is the one?
12:15Okay, I think it's not behind there.
12:17Keep trying.
12:19Describe these things people lift.
12:21Things people lift.
12:23Ready, go.
12:26You use it to propel a boat.
12:28An oar.
12:30You carry your clothes in a...
12:31A suitcase.
12:34A hurt person, a sick person, you carry around this.
12:36A stretcher.
12:37Yes.
12:38These are the things you buy when you go to the market to eat.
12:40Groceries.
12:41A guy who flies through the air at a circus.
12:43A pilot.
12:44Oh, a trapeze, acrobat.
12:45That's good.
12:46These things you lift.
12:47They're not very smart.
12:48Barbells, dumbbells.
12:49That's the kids.
12:50You put this on a ship.
12:51You load the...
12:52Anchor.
12:53No, it's the word for the stuff it carries.
12:54Cargo.
12:55Yes.
12:56Right under the whistle there.
13:00Any later and the buzzer would have nailed you.
13:02You got seven out of seven.
13:04The score stands as you can see, seven to four.
13:06Cindy?
13:07Beneath it all.
13:08Beneath it all.
13:09It's a mystery seven.
13:10Oh, you were right.
13:11When she said, she thought back.
13:12Really?
13:13Well, you got your choice.
13:14We don't tell you what the category is.
13:16If you take that score up to an 11,
13:18you'll win yourself a very nice prize.
13:20Okay.
13:21Here's your 30 seconds.
13:22Ready, go.
13:23Okay.
13:24They have leaves, an oak.
13:25Tree.
13:26Uh-huh.
13:27I see the...
13:28Star.
13:29Not dark, but...
13:30Light.
13:31Okay.
13:32You kiss under this at Christmas.
13:33Mistletoe.
13:34A woman carries an umbrella.
13:36Umbrella parasol.
13:37Uh-huh.
13:38You sleep in a canvas outside.
13:40Tent.
13:41The big place in New Orleans where they play things.
13:44The...
13:45French Quarter.
13:47Pass that.
13:48Play things.
13:49You have it hanging over your storefront.
13:51It's a canvas.
13:52Astrodome.
13:53Uh-huh.
13:54Awning.
13:55Uh-huh.
13:56Yeah!
13:57Oh!
13:58You were describing things you sit or stand under,
14:09and the bells, as we all know, mean you've won the bonus.
14:12Oh, good.
14:13And you got those answers all ways, sideways,
14:15upside down, everything else.
14:16Astrodome.
14:17But they finally came out.
14:18Well, that means you've got an 11 score,
14:20and you've won yourself a videocassette recorder to boot.
14:23Congratulations.
14:24Great.
14:25Laurel, what would you like?
14:26Let's see.
14:27Wine, women, and song.
14:28Wine, women, and song it is.
14:30Describe these things associated with wine.
14:32Great.
14:33Things associated with wine.
14:34Ready.
14:35Go.
14:36Where Paris is.
14:38France.
14:39Not wet, but...
14:40Dry.
14:41You eat this brie, eat them...
14:43Cheese.
14:44Uh-huh.
14:45You keep it in a dark place in the basement.
14:47It's the wine...
14:48Cellar.
14:50This is 1985.
14:51It is the...
14:52Vintage.
14:53You know what...
14:54Year.
14:55And you drink it in a small.
14:56You'll have a half...
14:57A bottle.
14:58It's a French name.
14:59A half...
15:00An automobile.
15:01An automobile is a...
15:02A car.
15:03A half...
15:04A half...
15:05Car, what?
15:06A half...
15:07Sorry.
15:08Caraf.
15:09Caraf.
15:10Caraf.
15:11That puts the game within reach of you, Cindy.
15:15You were trailing not so well before.
15:17Point difference now, 12 to 11.
15:18You have the choice.
15:19What would you like?
15:20Okay.
15:21I'm fading fast.
15:22You wanna give or receive?
