[LESTER HOLT]
(ding)(audience cheers) That's right. It is Lester Holt. The full puzzle reads "Hosts Dateline and NBC Nightly News". I could've hosted Nightly News, let me tell you. (sighs) But no, the network didn't renew my contract. Jane, please reveal the $10 Money Card before I fall into a bout of depression. |

(he stops)Stone: He misses and lands at #9. What do we have back there? [DOUBLE PLAY]Audience: DOUBLE PLAY!Steve: I've trained em' well, haven't I?Stone: Indeed you have. That means the next five questions will be worth $10, plus or minus. Jane and I will continue our descent down this rabbit hole in a moment, but first, the Dateline Timeline. All of these events happened this week. Disney's Return from Witch Mountain launched in theaters. The Gibb family dominated the top two spots of Billboard's Hot 100, with "Night Fever" at #2 and "(Love is) Thicker Than Water)" spending another week at #1. Another 9 inches of snow fell on St. Louis, Missouri, making a total of 64.4 inches for the year. And a new episode of CHiPs was on NBC in primetime. WHAT YEAR WAS IT?
1977
1978
1979
So, what year was it? Was it 1977, 1978, or 1979? You'll find out the answer after this break.

(fade in) Jane: (VO) Let's see how you did with our Dateline Timeline. Disney's Return from Witch Mountain launched in theaters, the Gibb family dominated the top two spots of Billboard's Hot 100, 9 inches of snow fell in St. Louis, and CHiPs was on NBC. Well, all of that happened this week in 1978.
WHAT YEAR WAS IT?
1978
And now, here's regular announcer Steve Anderson to tell us about the car we're offering tonight. |

 *Edd Kalehoff's "Today's 4" Theme* [Car Plug]One of our grand prizes this week is this luxury car. The 2020 Ferrari Portofino allows drivers to soak up the sun and have fun chasing the horizon. With a body that looks seductive no matter if the retractable hardtop is up or down, this front-engine four-seater epitomizes the grand-touring ethos. Whether the twin-turbo V-8 is rocketing it around or emitting operatic sounds, this Italian-built speedster is a joy to drive and hear.
Furnished by Herb Chambers Ferrari.
With on-road costs and a ruby Ferrari keychain from Germani Jewelry, this vehicle showcase is priced at ...
$243,550
Now let's get back to Stone Phillips and $ale of the Century! |

(cheers and applause, fade in to find Stone at lectern with a $ale baseball cap on his head)
Stone: Thank you, Steven. We're back, and if you're wondering why I'm wearing a baseball cap on my head, it's because Nicholas hit the Double Play on the Fame Game board. Players, this means that each of the next five questions is worth $10, plus or minus. Someone could achieve a large lead. Let's get back to the questions.
1. What are the first names of the popular musical duo Hall & Oates?
2. What do you call the center of a target?
3. Traditional Scottish Highland Games feature which event where competitors throw a tapered 19 foot and 6 inch long log?
4. The strait which connects the East China Sea with the South China Sea is named for what island nation?
5. Before I started hosting Dateline, I, Stone Phillips, spent 12 years working for what network's news division?
(buzzcodes and answers via PM, please)
