All language subtitles for Home Improvement - 305 - Arrivederci, Binford

Oh, nice hit!

Yes. Oh, yeah, that'll
be fine. OK, bye-bye.

Tim, you know
what my problem is?

(louder) Tim! You know
what my problem is?

Huh?
You know
what my problem is?

You repeat yourself.

No. I am just too nice.

That's what I was gonna say.
Can I watch this fight,
please?

No. Here. Wait.

(turns sound down)

Why are you turning
the sound down?
I need your help. Here...

What's the point of
listening to the fight

if I can't hear their skulls
being batted around?

You know that woman -
Marilyn Sanders -

who's always raising money
for everything?

Cute blonde with
the really big... eyes?

Those "eyes" are way bigger
than they were six months ago.

Anyway, she talked me
into heading up
this library fund-raiser.

I don't have time for this.

I got the job and the boys
and... my inattentive husband.

Huh?

Tim, come on.

Tell you what you do.
What?

You call her up
and you lie to her,

tell her you gotta
spend all this time
with your husband

'cause he's got
a severe mental problem.

Where's the lie?

What do you think, could we
put the kids in the middle?

Al has just cleaned this window

with Binford's
standard-size squeegee,

perfect for daily jobs.

For the big job, you might
want to turn to Binford's
mega squeegee.

This can clean the windshield
of a big rig in one stroke.

And a storefront
in under a minute.

And Al's mother's back
in less than an hour.

Now remember, if it doesn't
say "Binford" on it,

somebody else
probably makes it.

(musical flourish)

That brings us
to the final segment
here on Tool Time.

When men get done doing
a real hard job,

sometimes we don't look like
we want to, right, Al?
No, we don't.

I'm usually hot,
greasy, sweaty...

And bleeding.

But help is on the way.

To give us some grooming tips
from the job site,

we've invited those boys from
Bay City, Michigan, back -

the guys from
K&B Construction Company.

Let's give 'em
a big Tool Time welcome.
Come on, everybody.

Timmy!

You all remember
Pete and Dwayne.
You got a new member - Gus.

Gus, what'd you do before you
joined up with K&B?

Tim, I spent nine years
teaching 12th-grade math.

Dwayne spent nine years
taking 12th-grade math.

Could we? Great.

What kind of grooming tips
you got for us?

Well, Tim, probably
the biggest concern
in construction today

is when you've got to
go somewhere really fancy
straight from the job site.

That's right, buddy.
You can't show up
looking like this

to Vegas Night at the Kiwanis.

So...
what's a guy to do?

Well, Tim, we like to use
the tools of our trade
to clean up our act.

Let me show you.

Tim, I want you
to take a look at my boot
and tell me what you see.

All right. Marv, move in
and let's take a look at this.

Oh. Good golly, Molly.

I see a little bit
of concrete shavings,
maybe some tar...

something maybe you
should have wiped off
before you came in.

It's not gonna
look like that for long,

'cause all I have to do
is take an ordinary sock,

roll it around
my screwdriver like this,

stick the screwdriver
in my drill...
All right.

and voilà, I've got myself
a nifty boot buffer.

(whirring)

Hey, hey!

Now there's a tip
we can all use.

I've always said
you can tell a man
by the shine of his shoes.

And by how clean his nails are.

You need a little work
on those nails.

That's why we've got this line
of Binford hand-care products
in attractive packaging.

Environmentally sound.

I know they're dirty now, Tim,

but sometimes on the job site,
when you ain't got no water,

you can't get your nails clean.

So before I step out
to the discos,

I take a ten-penny nail,

and I scrunch out
all that filth and crud.

Marv, you wanna come
in for a closeup?

No, let's not do that now.
Out of respect for people
who might be having a meal,

we'll forgo that demonstration,
but thanks so much
for showing us that.

OK, OK.
Anything else
you guys got for us?

Well, Tim, probably
the biggest grooming problem

out on
the construction site
is... well, helmet hair.

Oh, yeah, hat head.

Not a real big problem
on your end, is it?

Why don't I just buff that up
to a high gloss?

Tim, I've found that a good,
strong air compressor...

works beautifully to add bounce
to a lifeless hairdo.

You wanna give it a shot?

Right here.
All right.

OK, that's better.

That's all the time we have.

Next time we get
to more grooming tips,
the guys can come back.

Al, why don't you tell us
what's on the next show?

Next week, we'll
be doing our salute
to electrical...

(air hisses)
...wiring!

That's all the time we have.
Thanks for joining us
on Tool Time.

I'm Tim Taylor.
See you next time.

Al.
Hi.

Did you hear what happened?
What's that?

Mr. Binford died.

Mr. Binford?

Yeah, he had a heart attack
this morning.

Oh... I can't
believe that.

Does Tim know?
I don't think so.

Oh, boy, he's gonna
be devastated.

Mr. Binford was like
a father to him.

And don't do that again.

Oh, that was a fun show.
Thanks, guys. A lot of fun.

Brace yourself, Tim.
Something awful has happened.

You saw your mom in the shower?

Mr. Binford died.

How can you play darts
at a time like this?

Because the foosball table's
broken.

Mr. Binford passed away.
Don't you think
we should talk about this?

He's dead.
Now get outta my way.

I think you need to grieve.

I think you need
to get outta my way.

If you don't
wanna talk about it,
I certainly do.

Oh, come on.

Mr. Binford's death
was very traumatic for me.

There was... there was something
left unresolved between us.

Between you and John?
Yes.

Last week, I asked
if we could have
a hot-water spigot

on the water cooler.

He said he didn't think
it was necessary.

So the next morning,
I was very curt to him
when I said hello.

Yeah?

Well, that's it.

Now I have to live with that
for the whole rest of my life.

Boy, that's
a terrible burden, Al.

I know.
It's probably nothing

compared to what you
must be going through.

I'm not going through anything.

When was the last time
you spoke with him?
Yesterday.

You did? How'd he sound?

Alive!

Did he say anything
about my being curt to him?

Did he say...?

As a matter of fact, that's...
that's all we talked about.

I'm convinced that
that's what killed him, Al.

Al, it was a joke.
Ooh-ooh.

Al, come on!

Sorry, Tim,
but I... I don't have
my usual sense of humor.

And frankly, I find
your attempt at levity
a little inappropriate.

What am I gonna do,
cry in my beer?

If you did, I wouldn't
look down on you.

It's not gonna bring him back.
All right?

That's not the point.

You suffered a big loss.

We all did.

Pull it together, will you, Al?

I just... I didn't really
need that spigot!

I just thought
maybe it would be nice

to have some hot chocolate
once in a while.

It devastates him
when they run out of corn nuts.

Oh, good. Guys, hold it.
Hold it. Hold it.

I got 250 flyers
I gotta send out
for the library fund-raiser.

I gotta stuff 'em,
fold them, stamp them,
address them tonight.

Who wants to volunteer?
Good luck.

See ya.
Bye.

Who wants their allowance
this week?
I'll help.

So will I.
Me too.

I knew I could
count on you boys.
There you go.

Looks like Mom's
suckered you guys
into helping out.

Uh-huh. You're next.
Hi.

So how was your day?

John Binford died.

What?
He had a massive
heart attack.

You're not gonna make us
go to the funeral.

There's no way I'm going.

Hey, guys, be quiet for a sec.
When is the funeral gonna be?

Tuesday at noon.

A school day.

Oh... poor
Mr. Binford.

Yeah, I really loved him.

Will you guys
show a little respect?

Yeah, please.

Why don't you guys get changed?
Let's go play some basketball
at the Y.

Yeah!

Honey, why basketball?

What about John Binford?

I don't think he can play
in his condition.

Tim, don't you wanna
talk about this?
Not really.

Well, I'd like
to talk about it.

Why don't you call Al?

I don't wanna talk to Al.
I wanna talk to you.

I mean, John Binford
meant a lot to both of us.

He not only gave you
your first job,

he loaned us the money
for this house.

He was the first person there
when all the boys were born.

He was a sweet, wonderful man.

You're not gonna cry, are ya?

Well, yeah, I might.

What is it
with everybody today?
You're crying.

Al, today at Big Mike's,
was blubbering like a baby.

Honey, there is
nothing wrong with crying

when somebody
close to you dies.

It wasn't just his crying.
He was singing "Oh, Danny Boy."

Dad, we're ready.

All right. Why don't you guys
head out to the car?

You are avoiding your emotions.
I know you've gotta
be feeling something.

I'm feeling like playing
a little basketball.

And I wish everybody would
mind their own business
about this.

John is dead. He's gone.
End of the line.

Next stop, tool heaven!

Ball.

All right, sodas
for the winners

in the biggest
basketball victory
in YMCA history.

Huh. Yeah, some victory -

you and Brad
beating me and Mark.

Who you gonna take on next?
Nana and Grandpa?

Forget about it!
Nana's way too tough
under the boards.

I think we should take on
Nana and Grandpa.

Good, Mark.

What do you wanna drink?

How about a brewski?

How about a root brewski?

Dad, I was real proud
of you tonight.

Thanks. It wasn't easy
driving to the basket
against Mark.

I'm talking about what happened
with Mr. Binford.

I think you've been
taking it like a man.

Well, I don't think
Mom thinks so.

She thinks I should get all
teary-eyed over this thing.

That would be stupid.

It wouldn't be stupid.

Dad, guys don't cry.

Yes, guys cry.

Like when?

If you scratch the paint
on that hot rod, you watch...

Yeah, but you don't cry.
How do you know that?

'Cause you don't
let stuff get to you.

Stuff gets to me.

Well, the great part is,
no one can tell.

(Wilson humming)

(door shuts)

Hey, Wilson.
Hi-ho, Tim.

What are you doing?

I'm aerating my lawn
with my new steel-tipped
aerator sandals.

Do you ever cry, Wilson?

Anytime I step on my foot
with one of these
silly sandals.

Yeah, I can understand that.

No, seriously.
Do you ever cry?

Well, Tim, I have been known
to weep on occasion.

Well, I'm not much
in the tears department.

I'm afraid
Brad is growing up thinking
that's the way it should be.

And that bothers you?

Kind of, yeah.

Hmm. Does this
have anything to do
with Mr. Binford?

How'd you hear about that?

Jill told me she needed
somebody to talk to.

She said you were out
shooting hoops.

You know, Wilson,
the trouble is,

Binford and I were
really, really close,

and I seem like
I'm the only person
not crying about this.

Why do you think that is?

I don't know. As long
as I can remember,
I've been like this.

When my father died,
I know I was real sad,
but I don't remember crying.

Well, Tim, maybe crying
isn't your outlet.

The shedding of tears
is just one way
that people mourn.

(grunts) Oh?
Oh, yes.

In parts of Mexico,
the bereaved

decorate the grave
with smiling puppets,

and then they eat
chocolate coffins.

Melts in your mouth,
but not in the ground.

On the Solomon Islands,

they hang
the dead man's arms
on his hut.

And in feudal Japan,
when a lord died,

the ronin samurai
would show their loyalty

by disemboweling themselves.

Whew, talk about guts.

Point is, Tim, when you lose
somebody who's close to you,

you have to find a way
to mourn.

It's what enables you
to accept the fact

that person is really,

truly... gone.

(grunts) Yeah.

Thanks, Wilson.
That was real...

Hey, where have you been?

Well, let's see.

After I ate dinner alone,
then I went to the mailbox
and mailed the 250 flyers

which I stuffed, stamped
and addressed myself

because you took the boys
to play basketball.

I should have stuck around
and talked to you.

I would have
preferred that, yeah.

I'm sorry, Jill,
but, you know, I didn't know
how to talk about this stuff.

I'm really uncomfortable
with this death thing.

Which is why we have kids
instead of pets,

'cause they last longer.

Honey, I knew that
you were upset about it.

But, you know,
you didn't know why.

John Binford

was the greatest guy
in the world to me.

And you know what the
first thing I thought about
when I heard he was dead?

Are they gonna cancel
the show? Am I out of a job?
That is so selfish.

I don't think that's selfish.

You were thinking about
the welfare of your family.
It's not selfish.

What if I told you
I was worried if the show
went off the air,

no one would recognize me
at the mall?

That would be
a selfish thing, yeah.

I just don't know how to mourn
for John Binford.

Is there anything
I can do to help you?

No. I'm pretty sure that people
have to learn how to mourn
for themselves.

People mourn in
different cultures
in different ways.

In some cultures, they put
chocolate puppets in coffins.

In the Chinoogie Islands,
or someplace,

they actually hang arms
on aluminum siding

as a way to do this.

And Ronny the samurai -

you don't even wanna know
what he does.

I don't know, Tim.
It may take a while,

but I think that
you're gonna find
a way to grieve.

You know, I just hope that
you don't cut anything off.

Does everybody know
what time it is?

(all) Tool Time!

That's right. Binford Tools
is proud to present

Tim "The Tool Man" Taylor.

Whoo!

(grunting)

Thank you, Heidi,
and thank you, everybody.

Welcome to Tool Time. I am
Tim "The Tool Man" Taylor.

You all know my assistant -
Al "Cry Me a River" Borland.

Ha-ha-ha.

If I didn't let
my feelings out, Tim,

I would not be
the man I am today.

That's food for thought,
isn't it?

Anyway, today, we're gonna
talk about John Binford.

Founder of Binford Tools.

Uh, John Binford
passed away this Thursday.

And, um... John Binford
was a heck of a guy.

He was the kind of guy
you could call 24 hours a day
if anything as bothering you.

He was always there for you.

The kind of guy
who would forgive someone
for being curt.

Or Russell or whatever
your name might be.

Uh... John Binford
believed in me

when I was just
a tool salesman
many years ago.

He handpicked me to host
what has now become...

Michigan's fourth-highest-rated
cable tool show.

I owe a lot to John Binford.
In his honor, I've made him
a special tombstone. Al.

This is outta one piece
of Michigan limestone.

I'm very impressed, Tim.

Thanks, Al.

I chiseled this out of limestone
in the shape of a claw hammer,

which is the first hammer
that Binford designed.

Yes, it was.

John once told me that...

with the right tool,
you can fix anything.

Huh.

Unfortunately, um...

there's no tool that can fix
how I'm feeling right now.

I'm gonna miss you, John.

You know, I think we should
bid John farewell

in the Tool Time fashion -

a little tribute
to John Binford

with a Binford
21 nail-gun salute.

Do you... think this is
a little dangerous, Tim?

No, wait. Warren,
the protective drop cloth,
please.

Have you tried this?

The drop cloths
will collect all the nails.
It'll be perfect.

You've tried this?
Hold on, hold on.

(electronic whirring)

Klaus, some music, please.

(♪ Taps)

So long, Johnny.

(chuckling)

Tim, just be careful.

Get the...

Pull the...
pull the plug!

(nail guns continue firing)

Hey. That's all
of our show today.

I'm Tim "The Tool Man" Taylor.
I gotta get outta here.

Hi, guys.
How was the funeral?

It was great.
There was tool reps
from everywhere.

All these I remember
from the old days.

You never saw so many
tear-stained beer bellies.

And poor Al, blubbering
about some water spigot?

He was broken up about that,
wasn't he?

Not as broken up as you were.

You cried?

He cried more than the widow.

That's 'cause she didn't
have to pay for parking.

I'm gonna go change.

Dad, I can't believe you cried.

I can't believe I did, either.

I thought I said goodbye
on Tool Time.

Once I started talking with
those guys, it just came out.

But you know what?
After I was crying, I felt
like a pathetic old woman.

Remember, if it doesn't
say "Binford" on it...

somebody else's name
is probably there.

(musical flourish)

Stay down!
That brings us
to the next segment...

I don't feel so good.
