Note: this is not a transcript, but a working draft of the script, so there may be differences in the aired version.
PAUL: Listen up, shush that dog, crank the volume, it's time for the most
incredible game show on the long wave, What's That Noise From Newfoundland !
Consider this your invitation, come play along !
Quizmaster Hollis Duffett, let the crowd hear that thing !

That's it, that's the newest of all possible noises. Mail has been pouring
in all week, so let's get a lucky entry out of the sack here ... and it's
from Winnipeg, Manitoba ... it's from James Klaassen, and James writes: "I
think the noise was a dock worker attempting to pull Paul out of the water
with a fish scale after Paul was shoved off the dock by his new girl friend.
Apparently his weight is 175 pounds."
That part is relatively flattering, the 175 pound part. How about the guess,
Hollis ? No go ?
Sorry, James, not me being rescued ... and I'll have you know your scenario
is totally fictional and bears no resemblance to fact.
Hollis, before I give the address of the contest, please give the new noise
another spin.

This week, for the first time in ages, I had the ... pleasure of female company.
Miss M. and I broke bread together, and while it wasn't a ... resounding success,
I hope we can try again, sometime. I guess. So this song, commemorating a couple
of recent events, is dedicated to you. Here is Les Negresses Vertes with "I Love Paris."
