*** Finally, at the beginning of the Mystery Guest round, John Daly is already nearly paralysed by laughter as Groucho has his blindfold in seemingly every position on his face except over his eyes; when Claudette Colbert is brought out as the guest, Groucho's blindfold is over his nose instead of his eyes ("My eyes are prettier," he explains), and John Daly disqualifies him from questioning. Not that this stops the episode's RunningGag from appearing again:
---->'''Dorothy Kilgallen:''' Are you in the motion picture business?\\
'''Claudette Colbert:''' ''(deep, throaty voice)'' Да.\\
'''John Daly:''' Mr. Cerf.\\
'''Bennett Cerf:''' Are you related to Groucho Marx?\\
'''Claudette Colbert:''' ''(pressing one nostril closed)'' Нет!\\
'''John Daly:''' ''(laughs)'' One down, nine to go, Miss Francis.\\
'''Arlene Francis:''' ''(through laughter)'' Groucho wants to know if your product is found in the kitchen. ''(massive laughter from the audience and John Daly)'' No, I had- I had the blindfold half off looking at Groucho so I know it's a lady but I promise you I didn't see any-\\
'''Groucho Marx:''' How do you know it's a lady?\\
'''Arlene Francis:''' I saw her skirt. Isn't that a sign?\\
'''Groucho Marx:''' ''(shakes head)'' No, that's no indication at all. Is it a woman? ''(Claudette Colbert is struggling to keep from laughing and giving herself away to the other panellists)'' Is it up to me?\\
'''John Daly:''' ''No.'' You've had it.\\
'''Groucho Marx:''' What do you mean, don't I get a chance at this?\\
'''John Daly:''' No! The blindfold was inadequate to its purpose...\\
'''Groucho Marx:''' ''(removes his [upside-down] blindfold [from below his nose])'' Well I know who it is, so I'll drop out. It's Mae West.

*** Groucho inevitably doesn't bother paying attention to the questions asked by Arlene Francis, Dorothy Kilgallen, and Bennett Cerf, or the answers they receive, when asking his own questions - which, though not unusual ''What's My Line?'' questions (if a guest makes a household product: "Is your product used in the kitchen?"; if the guest provides a service that involves touching clients: "Do you touch them above the waist?"), are thus complete non sequiturs in context.

'''John Daly:''' Well, she can't answer that question "yes" or "no"...\\
'''Groucho Marx:''' Well, she must make something, a woman can't make a living just being a blonde... although I've heard of a few who have! ''(gales of laughter from audience and panel)''\\
'''John Daly:''' To every statement or question that you- every statement you've made, every question you've asked, except that last one, the answer is "No". ''(flips over card)'' That's three down, seven to go, Miss Killgallen.\\

* When [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3rZEl46Y3AE Ed Sullivan appeared as the mystery guest]] on the 14 September 1958 episode, after trolling the panel by giving wrong answers to several questions, he had the following exchange with John Daly:
-->'''Ed Sullivan:''' ''(disguised voice)'' Mr. Dah-ly, why they wear masks?\\
'''John Daly:''' Why they wear masks? So they can't see what's going on.\\
'''Ed Sullivan:''' Then I wear mask too. ''(produces a caveman-like rubber mask and puts it over his head, derailing Daly's attempt to explain his last answer)''[[note]] A similar mask appeared in several episodes of ''Series/TheDickVanDykeShow''.[[/note]]

* After stepping down as a regular, Steve Allen made a number of return appearances as both a guest on the panel and a mystery guest. On the 4 October 1964 episode with Buddy Hackett as a guest panellist, Allen was the episode's mystery guest, but things didn't quite go according to plan thanks to a verbal slip from John Daly:
-->'''Dorothy Kilgallen:''' Are you a performer in show business?\\
'''Steve Allen:''' ''(loud whisper)'' Yeeeessss.\\
'''John Daly:''' Mr. Allen- I- ''(laughter from panel as Daly looks embarrassed)'' Mr. Cerf.\\
'''Bennett Cerf:''' I'll make believe I didn't hear that.\\
'''John Daly:''' You can't. I'm not kidding...\\
'''Bennett Cerf:''' Are you a comedian?\\
'''Steve Allen:''' ''(in his normal voice)'' I'm not as funny as John is right now!\\
''(laughter and applause; Dorothy Kilgallen and Bennett Cerf remove their blindfolds, but Arlene Francis and Buddy Hackett leave theirs on)''\\
'''Steve Allen:''' All right, Buddy, three guesses, who is it? ''(Buddy Hackett starts to remove his blindfold)'' Your time's up, Buddy!

* During the Steve Allen era, after the question "Is it bigger than a breadbox?" had become almost standard during the interrogation of guests, the producers used up the last few minutes of one episode by sending out Pete Burg, who made... breadboxes. When Dorothy Kilgallen, having established that Burg dealt with a product that would be found on the ground floor of a two-story home, asked, "But it's not larger than... a breadbox?", the audience fell about laughing. As a breadbox is not technically larger than itself, questioning passed to Steve Allen, who put two and two together.
-->'''Steve Allen:''' I'm gonna take the- the first stab in the dark in a, in a year, is it a breadbox, by any chance? ''(laughter from audience, panel, and John Daly)''\\
'''John Daly:''' ''(pointing at Steve Allen)'' What does Mr. Burg do with breadboxes?\\
'''Steve Allen:''' He hides in them!

* John Daly was noted for, if the panel asked a question that could be answered "yes" or "no" depending on interpretation, first conferring with the guest and then giving a convoluted speech which almost invariably raised more questions than it answered. However, when the famously verbally dextrous actor and singer Danny Kaye appeared as a guest on the 5 November 1961 episode, he turned the tables on Daly by asking a ridiculously convoluted (and deliberately content-free) question:
