[Excerpt of The Ed Sullivan Show on the giant screens.]

Ed Sullivan:
From Gary, Indiana, here's the youthful Jackson 5,
opening with a medley of their hits that have sold over a million,
each excerpt."

[Excerpt from the "I Want You Back" TV performance.]

Michael:
Hey, hey, hey! Who's showing this film? Hey, stop! Stop! Stop!
Stop! Stop! Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey! Hey! Stop the film, please.
The next song we're gonna do is something from the new album,
the Triumph album.

Randy:
I never can say goodbye... No, no, no, no, I...

Michael:
Randy, what are you doing?

Randy:
That's all, Mike.

Michael:
The next song we're gonna do is something from the new album.

Randy:
There's another. No, no, hold on, hold on.
Got to be there, got to be there in the morning, when she says hello...
Remember that one?

Michael:
Randy, why are you singing this old stuff?

Randy:
Why?

Michael:
We're supposed to do some of the new songs in this show.

Jackie:
Come on, Mike. Mike, the people...

Tito:
They wanna hear "I Want You Back", "ABC", "The Love You Save",
"Dancing Machine", "Daddy's Home", "Sugar Daddy".
Do you wanna hear the old stuff? How about "I'll Be There"?

Randy:
See Mike?

Marlon:
Do you wanna hear the old stuff?

Tito:
You wanna hear the old stuff?

Marlon:
Do you wanna hear it?

Michael:
Let me say one thing. I wanna say one thing.

Marlon:
Yeah, what do you wanna say? Say it.

Michael:
I wanna say one thing.

Marlon:
What?

Michael:
Number one, I don't wanna do the old stuff 'cause it's old, okay.
Number two, the choreography is old. The costumes we wore back then are old.
I wanna do some of the new stuff.

Marlon:
Come on, Michael, they don't care about that stuff.
Do you care about that? Tell him, do you care? Do you care?
They don't care about that, Mike. They don't care!

Michael:
OK, I'll tell you what...

Marlon:
What, what, what?

Michael:
I'll do the old stuff for you, okay. I'll do it for you.
Wait, wait, wait, wait, I'm doing it for you. I'm not doing it for them,
I'm doing it for you.

Tito:
Thanks a lot.

Marlon:
Yeah, thank you.

Tito:
It's real nice...

Michael:
But if we do the old stuff, you have to do my favorite medley.

Randy:
What's your favorite medley? Tell me, I wanna know.

Michael:
You'll see...

Randy:
All right!
