[[Game Show]] created by Don Reid in which two couples competed to win a new house by answering questions. The original ran on [[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]] daytime from 1968 to 1970 (and in nighttime for six months in 1968) and was hosted by Mike Darrow; in it, two couples competed in a game of quick recall. The first player to buzz-in got to answer first, with a correct answer scoring five points. If s/he was wrong, the other couple could try to answer for 10 points. When a player gave a correct answer, s/he was locked out of the next question.
Two minutes before the end of the game, which lasted from four to five minutes, the [[Double the Dollars|point values doubled]], and at the end was the "Catch-Up Round" in which the trailing couple could choose one last question from 10 to 50 points (if they answered correctly, the other couple got one last shot). The winning couple won a room of furniture, and seven rooms (four on the nighttime show) won a new house worth over $40,000, plus $7,000 cash to purchase land.
