All language subtitles for Mary Tyler Moore s04e11 Just Friends

Who can turn the world on with her
smile?

Who can take a nothing day and suddenly
make it all seem worthwhile?

Well, it's you, girl, and you should
know it.

With each glance and every little
movement you show it, love is all alone,

need to waste it. You can never tell,
why don't you take it?

You're gonna make it after all.

You're gonna make it after all.

Whole brown wheat with raw nuts and
raisins.

Ted, you're wasting your time.

That's health food cereal. They don't
put prizes in it.

I didn't know you made Lou's breakfast
for him, Mary.

Starting tomorrow, include your rank in
there, will you?

I like Cocoa Puffs, Kaboom, and anything
they shoot out of a cannon.

No, Ted, I'm not going to make your
breakfast for you. I volunteered to do

for Mr. Grant because, well, since Mrs.
Grant left him, he hasn't been handling

things like meals too well.

Wasn't eating his breakfast?

Well, his version of breakfast, a bottle
of beer and some Oreos.

Is he still coming over every night,
Mayor?

Yeah. Well, you know, he just doesn't
know what to do with himself.

I mean, he and Mrs. Grant were married
for 26 years.

He's just not making it on his own. I
mean, even things like waking up in the

morning.

I mean, he was oversleeping every
morning until I started giving him a

call. He missed one, Ted.

going ho -ho -ho.

Sorry, Lou.

Right, Murr.

Mary, in my office.

Something wrong, Mr. Grant?

Mary, you gotta find me a laundry.

My washer and dryer broke.

It's reached the point where this is the
only shirt that still looks good in the

whole house.

Mr. Grant, could you move the bag?

Oh, yeah.

You want me to find a repair service for
you? No, thanks. I've called a repair

service. What'd they say?

The man should be there sometime between
9 and 6, they say.

Oh, how convenient, I say. That exactly
coincides with my working hours. That's

what they say.

You know what else they do when you're
working? They say they'll send a man

at noon. So at noon, you race home, and
you find a note saying, Sorry, we miss

you.

It's too much.

Mary, you missed my point. I'm not here
to swap stories over the back...

I want to get my laundry done. I will
find you a laundry. All right, thanks.

Mary, that was favor number one. Now
we're up to favor number two.

Yeah, sure.

Could you sort of casually drop in on
Edie and then come back and tell me how

she's getting along?

Oh, Mr. Grant, no. You want me to spy on
her? Oh, Mary.

I'm not asking you to spy on...

I wouldn't have to get a spy on her.

I'm just saying, could you visit her and
then secretly report back to me

everything you know?

One slice of banana?

Mr. Grant, I don't want to do this. A
lot. I mean, I just don't want to be in

the middle.

Look, Mary, you're not going to be in
the middle.

I'm really worried.

She's out there alone somewhere without
a master charge.

I just want to know how she is. But I'm
sure she's just fine.

Would you go if there was a really
important reason to see Edie? Yes, of

I would, but there's nothing like that.

How about this letter?

With the stamp of the United States of
America, which must go through.

There's cash in there.

Yeah, two cents from Reader's Digest.

I mean, no place for Lou? You're
dreaming.

Oh, Rhoda, I hope not. But he said he
wasn't coming over for dinner tonight.

Mary, he always says he isn't coming
over tonight.

I mean, every night he's come over, he
said he's not coming over.

Hey, listen, I want to ask you a tough
question, and I want you to be truthful.

Oh, that question.

Well, the answer to that is, when I was
20.

wants me to see Mrs. Grant as a kind of
a go -between. Do you think I should?

You call that a tough question? That's
not a tough question. A tough question

if you and Paul Newman were stranded on
a desert island and he had amnesia,

would you tell him he was married to
Joanne Woodward?

That would be a tough question.

In answer to your question, don't be
ridiculous.

You'll only get in the middle. I know, I
know. But I just keep thinking maybe it

would help get them back together. I
mean, you know, anything that works.

Little did you know that when they split
up, you'd get custody of Lou.

Listen, Rhoda, if he does come over,
would you stay?

Sure, I'll stay.

Listen, he's cute. I love how he lumbers
in here, wondering about his dinner.

He walks in that door every night at 8 o
'clock, dumps his life in my lap, and

then leaves at 11.

I mean, I don't even go out at night
anymore. I just, I can't stand the

of him knocking at that door and not
getting any answer.

Hello? Hello?

Thank you.

I said to myself, I know Mary's making
ham. Smells great.

Well, thank you, but it's red snapper.

Red snapper?

That's not a kind of ham, Mary.

That's a kind of fish.

Well, yes, I know.

Red snapper's a fish.

You didn't tell me we were having fish,
Mary.

Don't you like fish, Lou?

Fish has bones in it.

You pick around the bones. That's how
that's done. You see, you just pick

them. I just thought we were having ham,
that's all.

Lou, I know I am speaking for Mary.

Mayor, I hope this is all right.

Mary can take the bones out of your fish
before she even serves you your fish.

She can do that, Lou.

Couldn't you do that, Mary?

I could do that, Mr. Grant.

Well, either way, I just thought we were
having ham, that's all.

What else do we have?

What vegetables?

Corn. Corn?

Well, corn's okay. I'm not in love with
corn.

What else?

Well, I thought we'd have a big... Oh,
corn is more than okay.

No, corn's fine.

Good choice, Mary Corn.

What a relief.

So, what kind of day did you have,
Rhoda? Oh, me, Lou? A good day. Very

thank you. What kind of day did you
have, Mary?

Did you know what kind of day I had?

Well, maybe Rhoda would like to know
what you did.

Yes. Mary, what did you do today?

I'll tell you what she did.

Her boss, her friend, asked her to do
him a little favor.

Just a small favor to go see his wife.

And she said she wouldn't.

through all that today. Do we have to go
through it again now?

Look, I don't want to get in the middle
of your fight. Why don't you sign my

report card? I'm going to my room. Hey,
what time is it? There's a good fight on

TV tonight.

Oh, gee, Mr. Grant, I really don't feel
like watching a fight.

Uh, Lou, why don't you go upstairs and
watch the fight on my TV?

Hey, I don't have to see it if you two
want to watch something else.

No, no, that's okay, really. If we want
to watch something, we'll watch it at

Rhoda's. She's got this little, uh, what
is it, tummy TV.

Got a little...

screen about that big. Last night I
watched Torah, Torah, Torah.

However, all I got was Torah, Torah.

Hey, I don't want to put you two out.

Why don't I go watch the fights at a bar
or something?

No, Mr. Grant, I don't want you sitting
alone in some dumb bar. I want you

staying home tonight.

I mean, here.

In my... Because this isn't yours.

It's mine.

I'll see Mrs.

Grant tomorrow.

I will. I will do that.

Oh, yes. I will.

Sure.

Well, Mary, hello.

Hello. I was so glad when you called.

Well, listen, I really, you know, can
only stay a little while. I mostly was

just wondering how you are.

How sweet of you.

Well, this is it.

Won't you come in?

Well, yes, okay, but really, just for a
minute, just a minute.

Everything here is an et.

This is a kitchenette, a dinette.

Would you care for a drinkette?

It's really great.

You know, it looks like you.

Thanks, I kind of thought it did, too.
Has my eyes.

So, how are you?

Tonight, pretty good.

Good. Come sit down, Mary.

It's really nice of you. to drop by,
especially since you're so much closer

Lou than to me.

Oh, no, I like to think that I'm close
to both of you.

Really, Mrs.

Edie?

How's Lou?

Fine.

You know, I miss him.

I'd like to call and invite him to
dinner, but I'm afraid he'd take it

read all sorts of things into it, like I
want to get back together again or

something.

Maybe you could...

No, I don't want to put you in the
middle. Oh, well, no.

Put me in the middle.

What is the big deal about being put in
the middle?

What night would you like him to come
over?

Well, how about Thursday?

I'll ask him.

Excuse me. Sure.

and I said to myself, why does she
always get to be the good one?

And I'm here to see to it that Ted
doesn't stay too long.

Oh, come on in.

Can I get you anything?

No, no, thanks.

Are you sure, Mary? Yes, really.

I'll have a cream soda.

Tall glass, lots of ice, and a twist of
lemon.

I don't think I have cream soda. Would
you take ginger ale instead?

Oh, well, never mind.

Edie, I want to come right to the point.

Lou, is heavily involved with a French
showgirl named Brigitte Dubois.

And if you don't make your move pretty
soon, you're going to lose him forever.

Ted! Ted, a phone call for you.

Oh, excuse me. I'll have that ginger
ale.

You are just making matters worse. Look,

I can't explain it to you now, but I
will later at the office, okay?

I got you, got you.

Hello?

There was no phone call either? No.

Tell Mr.

Cronkite I can't speak to him now. I'll
call him later.

Hello.

Edie, I was out of line with what I said
before because it wasn't the truth.

The real truth is, Lou is ready to crawl
back to you.

The man will get down on his knees and
hands and... and crawl back to you

begging your forgiveness if you'll only
take him back.

Oh, come on, Edie, be a sport.

Telegram, Ted.

All right, so I'm not the most
diplomatic person in the world, but I

Edie, I know I speak for all of us when
I say, all we want is for you two crazy

kids to sit down and at least talk this
thing over.

All right, Ted, I'll tell you what.

Mary, why... don't you ask Lou to come
here for dinner Thursday evening?

That's a good idea, Edie.

Where? And you thought I was going to
come here and just make a fool of

Morning. Morning, Lou.

Oh, Mr. Grant.

I saw Edie last night. Oh, yeah? That's
nice. Murray, let's try to get those

demographic charts out by tonight.

Oh, Mary, could you comment for a
minute, please?

What'd she do? What'd she say? How'd she
act? Wait.

Okay, what'd she do? What'd she say?
How'd she act?

Wait.

Start at the beginning.

You got there.

All right, I got there. Wait.

Start with when you called.

All right, I...

Okay? Okay.

I called and said that I'd like to drop
by.

What'd she say? She said, fine.

Uh -huh. And I said, uh, all right, then
I'll see you later. What did she say?

She said, fine.

Look, Mary, see, what I'm actually
looking for is something like, you said

something, and Edie suddenly screamed
out, oh, my Lou, I love him so, I can't

say it.

stand living without him anymore.

Was there anything along those lines?

Well, no.

I see.

Well, I went over to her apartment.

What did it look like, her apartment?

Oh, very nice, very comfortable.

But what did it look like? Well, it
looked airy, a nice couch and fluffy

pillows. Oh, there was a Queen Anne
desk, a replica, or maybe it was Louis

XIV.

No, I think it was most likely Queen
Anne, because I always get those two

periods mixed up anyway. What did it
look like?

Did it look like the apartment of a
woman who's going to stay there briefly

then move back to her husband?

Did it look like the apartment of
someone who's going to be there for a

and wants to make it more attractive for
another man?

What am I saying?

Evie's not going around with another
man.

Is she?

How would I know? I don't. Mary, you are
in the woman's apartment. There are

signs. There are hints.

Well... Was there a guy lying on the
couch?

Mr. Grant, if she were seeing another
man, would she want you to come over to

dinner this Thursday at 7 .30?

She... She wants me to come to dinner
Thursday night?

So there's another man.

me I smell good.

Yes, I did, Ted. I really did.

I've always noticed that you're a guy
who looks nice, dresses well, and smells

good.

Come on, Lou. You didn't ask me to come
in and tell me I look nice, dress well,

smell good, and do a heck of a job with
the news.

Yes, I did, Ted. I really did. You see,
tonight is a very special night for me.

And tonight, I'm particularly interested
in your smell.

Lou, how long has it been since your
wife left you?

Ted, I just want to borrow your
aftershave.

Oh, that makes sense.

I'll go up to my dressing room and get
it.

Mr. Grant, here's the film on that
railroad story you wanted. Oh, thanks.

Oh, Mr. Grant, you look so nice.

Look at your hair.

I just got it cut, that's all. Where's
my other cuff link?

Well, you just... Look, your tie, the
shirt, your hair. You look just... Well,

so nice.

Do we have to keep talking about this?

Lou, what happened to your hair?

It looks all arranged.

I got it cut, that's all. And it's
combed. You combed your hair.

I'm just going to be seeing Edie
tonight, that's all.

Oh, hey, good luck, Lou.

Really. Okay, okay.

All I can say is, Lou, my heart will be
with you.

My thoughts and hopes will be by your
side.

I'm just dropping by, that's all. I'm
just dropping by.

Excuse me.

Okay, Ted.

Thanks.

Well, aren't you going to use it, Lou?

That's all, Ted.

everybody. I really hadn't planned on
drawing a crowd.

Why doesn't everybody just go home?

Go home, everybody!

Well, I guess I'll just mosey on home.

Just remember, Lou, I'll be thinking of
you and praying as hard as I can that

everything turns out right.

And also try to relax.

Lasagna? No, Red Snapper.

Well, look at this place.

What a nice place you have, Edie. I
never thought you'd really like any

got for myself.

Oh, I like it. I think it's fantastic.

Very, very nice place, yeah.

I like the carpet.

I like those drapes.

I like those drapes.

Hey, am I nuts or is that a Queen Anne
dance?

Nice, queen and desk.

Thank you.

Nice couch.

Yeah, nice.

Very comfortable.

Wow.

I just flat come out and say, let's have
marital relations.

Edie, you want to have marital
relations?

No, no.

So this is a crummy place you left me
for.

just keep track here all the time
without ever having to leave your

Just think, when you're an old lady, you
can sit there in a rocking chair and

you can say, sold another one.

Sixteen billion and three.

Lou, I really feel that we should think
of each other as friends.

Look, some theater tickets came that we
ordered a while back and they're for

next Thursday and I think we should go
together but as friends.

What do you think?

To think of each other as friends.

Kind of like pals.

Buddies.

Amigos.

Is that correct?

Lou, you know what I mean.

Well, we had three daughters together,
pal.

We slept in the same bed approximately
26 years, old buddy.

And now what you're saying is you want
us to be friends.

Was that the word you used?

Yes, that... What's the word I used?

We're not going to be friends, Edie.

I told you I never wanted another woman
when I meant it. And I told you I never

wanted another woman when I didn't mean
it. And we survived it all. All of it.

I'm going to go to that play with you,
Edie. Am I going as a friend or not a

friend?

Not. Not as a friend.

after shaving, he thinks he's going to
sit there and dummy up on me?

Listen, I don't know what to tell you.

We talked about her new job, and I
pretended I was interested.

We talked about my office, and she
pretended she was interested.

I pretended to enjoy the fish.

We watched a little television.

She went to bed, and I went out to a bar
and had a couple of drinks, just like

we were married.
