Christof: Somewhere in the vicinity of 5000.

Talk Show Caller: That's a lot of cameras.

Christof: Remember, we started with just one.

[as he speaks, clips of a foetus, newborn babies in a hospital, a toddler walking along a beach and a toddler looking up at a mobile with a camera attached to it are shown]

Christof: He was curious from birth. Premature by two weeks. It was almost as if he couldn't wait to get started.

Mike Michaelson: And of course his eagerness to leave his mother's womb was the very reason he the one who was selected.

Christof: In competition with five other unwanted pregnancies, the casting of a show determined by an airdate, Truman was the one who arrived on cue.

Mike Michaelson: Incidentally, I believe Truman is the first child to have been legally adopted by a corporation?

Christof: That's correct.
