Songs: "When You're Smiling" (Nat and Cheerleaders), "The Party's Over" (Nat), "If I Can Help Somebody" (Billy), "A Blossom Fell" (Nat), "Life Is Just a Bowl of Cherries" (Billy with Nat vocal/piano), "Rosetta" (Nat vocal/piano and Billy vocal/trumpet/jazzophone with Nat's combo), Memory Song: "The Christmas Song" (Nat) Note: The rather peculiar-looking instrument Billy plays on "Rosetta" is called a jazzophone, which sounds like a trombone, has valves and a mouthpiece like a brass instrument, but is shaped like a saxophone. At the close of this, Nat's last show, a crawl lists all of the guests who were featured on the program, in the order in which they appeared.
