[Deleted]

That's a lot of great prizes...& I want them all!  I'm coming back!

[palmer7]

He's coming back, ladies and gentlemen! (horn fanfare plays as Brian and Michael shake hands) We add $5,000 to the cash jackpot, making it worth $885,000.


(Brian turns to the camera) Thank you for your patience. I swear that everything I have said is the truth. Greg will be back tomorrow, make sure to be there when he gets back. Until then, this is Brian Williams. Thank you for inviting us into your homes. For all of us at Grundy Television and NBC, goodbye and April Fools'.

[NBC NIGHTLY NEWS THEME]












Charlie: (VO) Some departing contestants and some members of the studio audience will receive....


A supply of Noodle Roni Parmesano, the five-minute side dish from Golden Grain. Tender egg noodles and rare Italian seasonings and cheeses. A bit of old Italy.


Record-a-Call 80, the automatic telephone answering system. Voice actuated with remote control that plays your messages back from anywhere in the world!


Creamette premium quality in the famous green box. Doesn't your recipe deserve Creamette? Try some tonight.


Great on everything from stir-fry to chicken pot pie and then some, the lively taste of Tabasco sauce. Don't keep it bottled up.


The Aiwa CSDXW505 portable audio system with its new Euro design featuring super T-bass double cassette recorder and compact disc player. Aiwa, what a difference!


Plus, all of our contestants and some members of our studio audience will receive a copy of our home game from Hasbro, a diamond stick pen from Germani Jewelers, and $25 in Facebook credits.

(on NBC Nightly News that night)



Greg: Finally, I'd like to quote Edward R. Murrow, as some of his words relate to our current day. You may liken this unto yourselves.


"We must not confuse dissent with disloyalty. We must remember always that accusation is not proof and that conviction depends upon evidence and due process of law. We will not walk in fear, one of another. We will not be driven by fear into an age of unreason, if we dig deep in our history and our doctrine, and remember that we are not descended from fearful men — not from men who feared to write, to speak, to associate and to defend causes that were, for the moment, unpopular. [...] We can deny our heritage and our history, but we cannot escape responsibility for the result. There is no way for a citizen of a republic to abdicate his responsibilities. As a nation we have come into our full inheritance at a tender age. We proclaim ourselves, as indeed we are, the defenders of freedom, wherever it continues to exist in the world, but we cannot defend freedom abroad by deserting it at home. Cassius was right. 'The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars, but in ourselves.'"


Make of that what you will. And now, here's Lester Holt for a preview of Dateline Thursday. Lester?






Lester: Thank you, Greg. On Dateline this Thursday.... An hour after leaving work at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, neurologist Dr. Autumn Klein is rushed back into its emergency room in critical condition. ER doctors desperately try to save one of their own. Find out what happens Thursday at 10 Pacific, 9 Central on Dateline Thursday.



(back to studios)


Greg: That sounds disturbing. Speaking of Mr. Holt, he'll be back tomorrow at this same time. That does it for this evening's broadcast. Thank you for your cooperation and patience. I'm Greg Palmer, reporting from New York. For all of us at NBC News, good night, and good luck.
