Who can turn the world on with her
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 alone,

need to waste it. You can have a town,
why don't you take it?

You're gonna make it after all.

You're gonna make it after all.

Everybody up to date, Ted will be
leaving for Washington on Friday,

following his broadcast for a series of
interviews with national political

figures. Ted will take a 915 plane from
International Airport arriving at Dulles

Airport in Washington at 1220.

Uh, did you tell the hotel I need a
board under my mattress because of my

Yes, I did. Yeah, we also ordered sheets
with pictures of Peanuts and Snoopy.

All right. At exactly 9 o 'clock
Saturday morning, Ted will be driven to

Department of State for a briefing with
William P. Rogers.

William P. Rogers is the Secretary of
State.

I thought Kissinger was the Secretary of
State.

I thought he was President.

All right, there's going to be time for
questions, so, Murray, I think it's

ready to sum up for Ted to ask. Yeah,
she's here. Hold on.

Mr. Grant, could you tell him I'll call
back later?

She can't talk right now. Who's calling?

Tom Vernon?

Uh... Hold on. She can't talk right now.

Oh, well, that's... I'll take it in the
other room. It's just an old friend.

I'll be a second.

Hello, Tom?

You're kidding!

You're in Minneapolis?

No, it has.

It's been a long time.

No, I didn't realize it had been that
long.

Yeah, yeah, I'm still unmarried.

And you, still un as well.

So how are you?

Good. Me?

Yes, also good.

I got lonely.

Gee, Tom, I don't know if we'll be able
to get together. You see, I might be

going out of town.

On a business trip.

Wisconsin.

Well, I tell you what, why don't you
call me a little later and then... Oh,

for sure.

Well, thank you. It was wonderful to
hear yours, too.

Right. And welcome to Minneapolis.

Goodbye.

That was an old friend.

Who you didn't want to see.

I know the feeling.

No, no, no. I really do want to see him.

Never mind.

Can we get on with it now?

Yes, of course.

Say, Lou.

We're going to move the meeting. The
least you could do is tell a guy.

Mary.

Questions. Ted's supposed to ask the
Secretary of State?

Oh, yes, right. The questions, Marie. I
gave them to you, Mary.

Oh, well, they must be in here
somewhere.

Uh, Lou?

No. I've got a perfect question, but no
one there will think of.

Mr. Secretary, Ted Baxter.

Miss St. Paul, tell me, sir, do you
sleep naked?

So the famous Tom is back, huh?

When's the last time you saw him, Mayor?

Two and a half years ago.

Two and a half years and four letters
and a postcard from Atlantic City with a

picture of a diving horse.

spring cleaning to do. Yeah, I can see
where you wouldn't want to pass up this

kind of fun to go out with a guy you
used to love.

Is there anything here you think you
want?

Yeah, Mary, there sure is.

How about these?

I meant from the box.

I was afraid of that.

Listen, kid, what can it hurt to see him
again? I mean, just once.

It can hurt, Rhoda. Believe me, it can
hurt.

Boy, I remember once we were on this
picnic.

And there we were on that mountainside
sitting on the grass.

Yeah, gotcha.

Gentle slope, I assume. I mean, you
weren't clutching onto bushes to stay

Right. Gentle slope.

And we were having wine and cheese and
staring at the clouds. And he turned to

me and he said, if I were the kind of
guy who would ever get married, this is

the moment I would propose.

Rhoda, it was the worst moment of my
life.

Someday, someday near, I will tell you,
when we're older, past caring, the worst

moment of my life.

You want to hear it now?

It involved my high school prom and an
oil potato.

and welcoming Eagle Scouts to the Oval
Room.

Hey, Mary, I've never seen this before.

What is this?

Oh, it's just a family photo album. Can
I have it?

I could leave it open in my apartment.
People would think it was my life.

There's some pictures of Tom in there
somewhere.

Oh, is this him here, Mary?

Where? Standing right next to you, in
front of this car.

Yeah, that's Tom.

It's a very revealing photo.

He's got the same lovesick expression on
his face as you do.

Only he's looking at his car.

Exactly. Would you like me to sum up our
relationship?

Saturday, we'd go out.

Sunday, I'd cry.

Monday, I never wanted to see him again.
And by Thursday, I prayed he'd call

back. Friday, he did.

Saturday, we'd go out. No, no, not
again.

Maybe he's changed.

You had to say that, didn't you?

Well, Rhoda, you know what this reminds
me of? A scene from Beach Blanket Bingo,

and we're Sandra Dee and Annette
Funicello.

Don't take it so hard. Maybe Fabian will
ask you to the hop.

I know. I mean, I'm 32 years old, and
I'm walking around like...

Hello?

Oh, hello again, Tom.

Yeah, I'm sorry that I couldn't talk
when you called earlier, but, uh,

busy, busy, busy.

We'll be going out of town on the
business trip.

How long will you be in our fair city?

Just a week.

Well, then I guess I'll miss seeing you.

Yeah, sure. I'll write down your number
just in case.

Sure. 555 -9372.

Extension 2176.

Right. Bye.

How long will you be in our fair city?

why I did not write down his phone
number.

555 -9372 extension 2176.

You want to write that down before you
forget.

176, please.

You can't trust that one.

I can't believe I did that. Why did I do
that?

Any messages, Mary?

Uh, yes, Mr. Chan.

Hey, you can take the rest of the day
off.

Why?

Well, I figured maybe you'd want to see
that old boyfriend of yours, Tom, while

he's still in town.

Marie! Lou, I told you not to say
anything.

Marie, why didn't you tell me? Lou, you
told me you wouldn't tell her. Look,

Marie, if I can't say something... I
didn't think you'd say anything. I

it might help if you did. I don't want
everyone in the world to know.

What would you want me to know?

I'm as close to you as he is.

Besides, you could trust me.

If you told me, I wouldn't go blabbing
it to him.

Oh, say, Mayor, I've been going out of
this itinerary. I think as long as I'm

winging it to D .C., I ought to meet the
president.

Uh, Ted, the junket has already been
set, and nobody is going to meet the

president on this trip.

Here, call the White House.

There is the telephone number.

Of course you can, unless you tell me
you're calling for Ted Baxter.

Never heard to be seen with the
President of the United States.

I'd even help someday if I decided to
throw my hat under the fire.

You?

Why not?

I asked Cronkite to run for the Senate
once.

And I think good night and good news is
a lot better than...

Ted Baxter, WJM -TV, Minneapolis -St.
Paul.

I'd like to speak to the president.

It's personal.

Cool.

Okay. And this time, I am not hanging
up.

Room 2176, please.

Hi, Tom.

It's Mary.

Yeah, right here in Minneapolis.

I didn't have to go out of town after
all, and so I thought if you weren't

anything tonight, of course, I'm sure
that you are.

Goodbye.

I've been downstairs for the past 30
minutes finding out there's no great

you can say to a woman you haven't seen
in two and a half years.

What do you mean?

Well, I mean, how you been, isn't it?

You look wonderful.

That's not enough.

It's good to see you again.

You know, that doesn't work.

And definitely not, it's been a long
time.

You look wonderful.

It's good to see you.

Well, how have you been?

I should have known you'd get better
looking.

You know, when you're 60, I won't be
able to stand it.

Hey, you sure you want to go out
tonight?

Oh, yes, I'm sure.

I mean, sure.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure.

I thought we'd just stay in and get
reacquainted.

Well, can't we reacquaint out?

I guess so. I mean, I thought we could
order a pizza like the old days. I saw a

place in the next block.

They don't deliver.

Now, Tom, I insist.

You...

Mary, you didn't dress up just to sit
home.

We'll go out and have fun.

Right.

But, you know, you do look wonderful.

You're going to love this little
restaurant I picked out.

You sure that place doesn't deliver?

Absolutely.

Because I remember once I was giving a
party. You know, it was no particular

occasion. Just a bunch of us got
together.

And somebody suggested we send out for
pizza because the party, you know, had

gone on for some time. And we'd sort of
run out of food.

Even after we pleaded and pleaded, they
still wouldn't deliver. And finally, we

just trooped on down there.

So let's get going, because Minneapolis
awaits.

Okay.

And so, Mr. and Mrs. Twin Cities,
immediately following this broadcast,

reporter will be winging his way to our
nation's capital.

That's Washington, District of Columbia.

Parallel age with our nation's leaders.

A lot of hard work has been spent
preparing for this trip.

His mother had to sew name tapes on his
underwear.

Many hours of briefings, research, and
exhaustive study, so that this reporter

can seek out the news behind the news.

Ask me if Washington was named after the
president or the state.

Mrs. Ted Baxter, your man in Washington,
saying good night and good news.

Ted going to Washington.

That'll teach Agnew to pick on
newscasters.

Three good jokes and nothing.

Tom hasn't called yet, huh?

No. And he said he'd call me at work
today.

Mary is still at work. He could still
call.

Yeah, I suppose.

Harry. Would you run these budgets down
to accounting for me?

Yes, Mr. Grant.

Murray, if any calls come, just tell
them I'm down the hall and I'll call

right back. Down the hall?

No, no, just say I'll be right back and
then put them on hold. Right back.

Wait, no, no, don't. Just say, say just
a minute and come and get me.

you, you big palooka.

Ted, you're only going to be gone for
two days.

Murray, take care of yourself. Right,

Ted.

I'm going to really miss you guys. You
don't know how much I'm going to miss

you. We promise we'll ride every day.

You sure you don't want to come along,
Lou?

No, Ted.

Murray? No, we can't, Ted.

Oh, come on.

Please. We'll have a lot of fun.

Just the three of us running around
Washington?

Please, I don't want to go by myself.

Ted, it's going to be all right.

There will be people there to take care
of you. And we'll be here if you need

us.

Well, I guess I'll be all right. Sure
you will.

Well, so long.

Murray?

No.

Only gone for a couple of days.

It's Rhoda.

Oh, hi.

Well, hi, Rhoda.

Still haven't heard from Tom, huh?

Nope.

Mary, something happened last night? The
worst possible thing. We had a terrific

time. Oh, that's a shame.

At least I did.

Well, it's my fault. I should never have
gone out with him. I think I know

what's wrong.

told Tom how you really feel about it.
Yes, I have. Big mistake.

Rhoda, I don't believe that.

You don't believe it. You're living it.
The only guy in your life you really

want, he's leaving town tomorrow.

Well, there's just nothing I can do
about that.

Oh, Mary, there certainly is.

Nobody walks away from a game when he's
losing.

Hey, Rhoda, listen, just so that I can
continue to respect you as my closest

friend, tell me you're not suggesting
that I do anything as stupid as trying

make Tom jealous.

Yeah, I know. You're right, kid. It's
absolutely absurd.

People our age is playing games. I mean,
I'm sorry I even mentioned it. I'm

ashamed. But it works.

Come on, Rhodey. You can't build a
relationship that's going to be full.

Welcome to our fair city.

That's my friend.

I'd like to meet her sometime.

I thought you'd be glad to see me,
aren't you?

Oh, surely.

I didn't know I was supposed to call you
at work today, but somehow I just got

involved, you know? Oh, really? No, I
thought that I was supposed to call you.

Anyway, I happen to be in the
neighborhood, so I thought I'd just drop

Well, good.

That's good.

I'm just sorry that we won't be able to
spend more time. One together.

What do you mean?

Well, I have a late date.

How late?

10 .30.

10 .30?

Well, see, that's when he gets off work.

Oh, nobody gets off work at 10 .30.

Policemen do.

He's a cop?

Detective first.

Oh.

He's not a detective first. He's not a
police...

He's not even a person.

I mean, I don't have a date tonight.

Why did you say you did?

Do I make you do things like that, Mary?

No, Tom, it's not you.

You're not mad at me?

No.

Everything's okay?

Yeah, fine.

Good.

Let's have the pizza.

Why do I have the crazy feeling that
this isn't what you're really mad about?

No, no, this is it, right there.

If you had to take a wild stab at
something else that might be bothering

what would it be? Nothing. Take a stab.
No, I tell you not. A wild stab. Our

relationship. I think you got it.

Tom, I'm sorry. Listen, it's nothing to
be mad about. I mean, you can't help it

if you don't...

See you again, and only knowing that
when I do, you're going to leave.

Sure, in the movie of my life, Frank
Sinatra will play the part, right?

Well, don't tell me you really do feel
badly when you leave?

That's right, I do.

Then how come you only wrote me four
times in two and a half years?

I mean, Reader's Digest wrote to me more
than that.

How come you only wrote to me three
times in the last two and a half years?

is different. Oh, no, it's not. In the
last two times, you signed it fondly

instead of love. That's because I didn't
think that we were in love anymore. I

thought we were more in...

I love you.

So how come we're not happy about that?

Because we each want different things.

Mary, you want a deeper relationship.
You want to be wife, mistress, mother,

sister, friend.

I just don't think one out of five is
enough for you.

You're right. One out of five isn't
enough.

Three out of five?

Mary, you just end up disappointed and I
then end up feeling guilty.

Boy, it really is easy for you, isn't
it? Oh, no, it's not easy, Mary.

Boy, it's not easy.

Because I know one day I'm going to call
you and you're going to tell me about

some other guy and that's just going to
wipe me out.

Yes, it will. Believe me, it will. I do.
I do believe you, Tom. I guess you just

can't change.

But, hey, did it ever occur to you that
someday you were going to be alone?

It occurred to me.

Poor Tom.

Poor me.

Poor us.

Mary, I thought you said Ted was on his
way in from the airport.

Well, he must be tied up in traffic. He
said he would be here by airtime. We've

only got a couple of minutes. You better
tell Gordy to stand by to fill in.

Right, I will.

Hi, guys.

Ted, hurry up. You've only got 30
seconds.

Does anybody even say hello?

Ted! All right, all right, guys. We've
gone a couple of days. No one says

How are you?

We missed you. Here you go, Ted.

Say, Mayor, that was a rotten trip. I
don't want to do one of those things

again. I can't believe that...

Well, at least you made it. This is Ted
Baxter.

I just this minute returned from our
nation's capital, where all went well

my talks with our nation's leaders.

There was, however, one sorry exception.

One nationally known political figure
who steadfastly refused to see me, even

when I stopped by his house.

Something to hide, Richard Nixon?
