Garry mentions that tonight’s show will be slightly
truncated. CBS sold a five-minute paid
political announcement to air after Secret. As such, there are only two
segments.
Mr. X and Mr. Y: “We went 7 miles into the ocean…straight down
(World’s Record)”
Jacques Picard and Navy Lt Don Walsh
explored Challenger Deep, the deepest part of the Marianas Trench, aboard the
bathyscaphe Trieste, which was
designed by Jacques’ father Auguste.
Their journey in January was the first time any device, manned or
unmanned had reached the deepest known part of the Pacific Ocean. The pair would be heavily decorated for their
accomplishment. The Trieste would continue to be used for deep-sea missions, including
notably in 1963 to locate the wreckage of a nuclear submarine in the
Atlantic. Decommissioned in 1966, today
it is on display at the US Navy Museum.
Special Guest John Payne brings
cliffhangers from classic silent films, and the panel has to predict how the
hero escapes from each dilemma. He also
creates a cliffhanger involving Henry and a rotating saw in order to get the
Secret audience to tune in next week. With
the election less than three weeks away, Garry mentions that Payne has been
traveling the country making speeches to encourage people to vote. Payne was a handsome and versatile actor possibly best
remembered today for his lead role in the Christmas classic Miracle on 34th Street (1947).
