Who can turn the world on with a smile?

Who can take a nothing day and suddenly make it all seem worthwhile?

Well, it's you, girl, and you should know it.

With each glance and every little movement you show it, love is all

need to waste it. You can never tell, why don't you take it?

You're gonna make it.

I wish I was going to Las Vegas with Lou today. Oh, yeah, he's really looking

forward to it. He's kind of cute, how excited he is. There's no question about

it. Lou has never been cuter.

Murray, I just heard from the weather bureau. They just closed the airport.

Lou is not going to Las Vegas this afternoon.

Oh, Gordy, why today?

Hey, why does everybody always blame me for the weather? I'm not snowing. Oh,

no, I'm sorry.

It's just that Mr. Grant's been planning this trip for two months.

Poor Lou.

That it depressed anybody who had to spend a weekend in cold, snowy

while I lie around a pool in warm, balmy Las Vegas.

Got your luggage all packed and everything.

Mm -hmm. Going directly to the airport from here. Catching the three o 'clock

plane. I can hardly wait.

Newsroom.

Just a moment, please. Mr. Grant, it's for you. Las Vegas calling.

Oh, that's probably Mike Cooper. He and Jack Dunn couldn't wait either. They

flew out last night. Hi, Mike.

You're calling from where?

By the pool?

By the pool.

Bring me some coffee, Mary.

He'll be right with you, Mike.

Maybe the airport will open up again about three. Just for a minute. Just

enough for one plane to just... It didn't.

Oh, boy.

Mike,

I can't ask you the next question I was going to ask because Mary just walked

in.

So you answer it without my asking.

No kidding?

Oh, man.

Yeah. Okay, okay. I'll meet you at the pool in seven hours and 36

minutes. Yeah.

They haven't been to bed yet.

Well, what with Hoover Dam and all those museums.

What? Just please, please sit down. All right.

Mr. Grant, what would happen if for some unforeseen, you know, unknowable,

impossible to imagine circumstances, you couldn't go to Las Vegas today?

Mary, what are you trying to tell me?

Well, it has to do with snow.

It's not as if you could predict the weather.

What'd he say?

What could he say? He always thinks of something.

I hate snow.

I don't like its color.

I don't like its shape.

I don't like its temperature.

I don't like how it feels.

Or what it does.

I don't like it in snowballs.

Great snow as much as I hate anything in the entire world.

Hi, guys.

Boy, is it really coming down out there. Isn't it beautiful? Makes you feel so

good.

Glad to be alive.

Grateful to be living in this wonderful winter wonderland.

It's not the end of the world. I could live with that.

Hey, Lou, why don't you get up a poker game?

How can a poker game take the place of a weekend in Las Vegas with the boys?

In the sunshine, around the pool.

You want to play?

Sure, I'll play. Murray? No, thanks.

All right.

It's better than nothing.

Murray, you set it up.

We'll play here at the studio, get an early start.

We'll need six people. Use my card file.

I see a round table, cards, chips, ice, drinks.

Cards, chips, ice, round table, six players.

I'll play, Lou. Anything to get out of that rotten snow.

Huh? I'll play. Play what? Whatever it is you're going to play.

It's poker, Ted. For money.

Oh.

Well, I've got some extra change.

Not change, Ted. You need dollars in this game. Dollars. Okay.

You got Gordy and me so far. Uh -huh. Marie, you don't want to play? No, it's

not my game.

Is this enough, Lou?

That's enough.

How come when you order a sandwich sent in, they always send you the wrong

thing? I don't know. They got my order wrong, too. Oh, heaven, she's all right.

Got a roast beef on white.

So that's four so far. How about Harvey Ames? Dr.

Ames is at the hospital.

Well, have you tried him there?

He's in the operating room.

Oh.

They have phones in operating rooms, Mary.

Use a little muscle.

If you can't get six, I'll settle for five, but no less.

Okay. Mr. Grant, what do you want for drinks?

Scotch and water.

That's it? Just scotch and water?

That's three kinds of drinks.

Scotch, water.

children's birthday parties on the King Artie show.

You mean we're going to have to play poker in King Artie's castle?

Yeah. Listen, you're sure you don't want to play? Uh, no. No, thanks.

Besides, I promised Maria I'd be home early tonight.

Just seems like it'd be fun. You know, all the guys playing poker.

You still playing tonight, Gordo? Oh, I wouldn't miss it for the world, Ted.

There's a three of a kind beat a flush.

Other way around.

Three of a kind does beat two of a kind.

Right.

What's a kind?

Oh, yeah, that sounds really good. Okay, they should be ready to eat in about 20

minutes. Eat them? I thought we were going to wear them.

Hey, could you get that for me? Okay, ma 'am.

Whoever it is, I'm inviting them in. We'll huddle together and share our body

heat.

Hi. Hi,

Marie.

Rona, you remember Marie? Of course.

Marie's wife.

And a fine person in her own right.

even call the police.

Marie, what is it?

I can't find Murray.

I was hoping he was here with you.

Oh, no, Murray's not here.

Oh, thank goodness.

Wait, no.

He's down at the station.

No, Mary, he isn't. He called to tell me that he was working late.

Well, that was the last hand, Ted.

Wait a minute, Lou. I mean, I don't want to ante this hand.

You gotta ante, Ted. It's like saluting the flag.

What do you say when you don't want to bet anything?

Check.

Well, that's interesting. I wonder who thought of the word check.

Must be from a foreign language or something like Czechoslovakia. Check!

Not this time. You should try playing, Ted. Maybe you'll enjoy it.

Despite my old timer.

I'm in. Two cards. Two cards.

Thank you.

believe I have to be dealt out of a hand. Yeah, but Murray... Why don't you

write him a note and let Ted deal it to him?

Check. Check.

Check. Check.

Is this your chip or mine? I think it's mine.

How's it going, Murr? Well, not too good.

What does that mean in money?

Well, I'm only about 20 ahead.

Oh, well, that's great. You're ahead.

And he's winning.

Check. Now, cost you a dollar.

How's the food holding out?

Fine. Nobody's touched it.

Hey, I'll tell you what we do. Why don't we all go out and get some pizza?

You just finish up this hand, and then we'll all go out and get some pizza.

do you say, huh?

I have a better idea, Mary.

Why don't you go out and get a pizza?

happy to do that. I'm going right by. I can take you right to your door. I could

do that. I would. I would. Murray, I would go.

You're banished from this kingdom.

Murray, are you sure you don't want to go home?

Say goodnight, Mary.

Goodnight. Goodnight, Mary.

Goodnight, Mary.

Hey, who's gonna bet?

There's so many wild cards, I don't know what I got.

Fool.

six tens.

Take it, take it.

Hurry, listen. I was thinking... Good night, Mary.

See you at four.

Okay, we'll play five cards, Joel.

All right, good.

All right, let's sit down and play some real poker for a change under this wild

card junk.

I'm with you.

Plus a little more.

How little altogether?

About $375.

$375?

Can't win them all.

Murray, if you lost and Mr. Grant lost, who won?

Hi, guys.

Got my loot, Murray.

You'll get it, Ted.

Did he tell you about it, Mayor? I was just going to tell her, Ted. Mayor, the

klutz got lucky.

until ten.

Oh, now, all right. I won't push it.

See you about ten -fifteen.

Marie, if you had to lose, why did it have to be the ten?

Well, maybe it's a blessing in disguise.

You see, I used to have this gambling problem, Mary, but it's all over now.

And getting in that game, it all came back to me. What a terrible thing it is.

I'm never going to play again. Never, really.

The only trouble is, I don't know how to get the money out of the bank, so Marie

won't find out how much I lost.

Well, how are you going to get the money?

I found a game for tonight.

All I need is a little stake because I feel real lucky.

I mean, I'm under no compulsion to play, Mary. It's just that I need the money

to pay him back.

And how are you going to get the stake for the game?

All I need is one simple bet. One short bet.

Bank's open in ten minutes, Murray.

Why do you keep bugging Murray for the money? Because I need it. Why?

Because he owes it to me.

of a Japanese minister of finance, Hideko Kawasaki.

Ted, how'd you like to go for double or nothing? No, no, Marie, I will not let

you. I'm going to call Marie, I swear I will. Wait a minute, what do you mean,

double or nothing?

Well, if you blow that name, Hideko Kawasaki, on the air tonight, we're

If not, I owe you $750.

That's $750, Ted. Now, wait a minute. Let me get this straight.

If I say this name tonight and don't make a mistake, you'll owe me $750?

And if you blow it, we're even. Let me get this straight again.

You got it straight, Ted.

I don't know, it's so easy.

Look, Hideko Kawasaki.

Must be a trick.

When that light goes on that little camera tonight, you'll blow it.

Now, that's a direct challenge to my ability to read a simple sentence.

Right.

You're on.

Edeko Kawasaki.

Edeko Kawasaki.

Edeko Kawasaki.

So, why aren't you calling Marie?

Because I'm not sure.

Council. So much for the local scene on the international front.

Japan devalues the yen.

That story in a moment, right after this commercial sursage.

All right, that's six big mistakes so far.

The law of averages are against you. I have faith he'll make seven.

Hideko Kawasaki.

Not tonight, we're Kawasaki, Kawasaki, Kawasaki.

He's going to get it right.

Gordy, 50 bucks, he gets it right. Murray, will you stop that?

I know, I'm crazy.

The international financial scene was enlivened today by several developments.

The most important story comes from the Far East.

Japan announced today that there would be a further devaluation of the yen, as

speculated some months ago by the Japanese Minister of Finance.

Ideko Sawakaki.

Damn!

Sorry, I'm so glad that's over.

Did I just hear Ted say damn? Yeah, yeah.

On air?

Yeah.

Why should Ted care if they devalue the end?

Good news, your deck will go with Sucky.
