Synopsis by Hal Erickson
The "FYI" anchor team agrees to compete against a group of brilliant Yale students on a popular "intellectual" TV quiz show. During a dress rehearsal, the Yalies reveal the length and breadth of their intelligence--and also reveal the mental shortcomings of Murphy (Candice Bergen) and her coworkers, who apparently have forgotten a great deal since their school days. Rather than settle for the "lovely parting gifts", the FYIers decide to put their heads together and cram for the Big Show--which is only a few hours away.
