All language subtitles for Whos The Boss s04e21 Marry Me, Mona

There's a time for love and a time for
living. Take a chance and face the wind.

An open road and a road that's hidden. A
brand new life around the bend.

There were times I lost in a dream or
two.

I found a friend and at the end was you.

There's a path you take and a path not
taken.

The choice is up to you, my friend.

Not so long that you might awaken to a
brand new life, a brand new life, a

new life around here.

Isn't my bride beautiful?

Oh, she's Mona beautiful.

She's Mona.

Friends and relatives, we're gathered
together to join this man and this woman

in holy matrimony.

Usually I ask this question later in the
ceremony, but all things considered,

I'd like to clear it up now.

Is there anyone present who objects to
this union?

Speak now or forever hold your peace.

I object.

Me too.

Mona, I thought we had a date Friday
night.

Wait a minute. She's going out with me
Friday night.

Mother, mother, this is embarrassing.

No, it's not, dear.

Settle down.

Hey, settle down.

Guys, thanks for the memories.

It was great while it lasted.

And some of you lasted longer than
others.

But from now on, I am a one -man woman.

They're lighting candles in singles bars
all over New England.

Oh, you big lug.

I'm yours forever.

So, that's my dream.

It's so clear in my mind, I can almost
hear the tin cans rattling behind my

robe. Oh, Max, you paint such a romantic
picture. Yeah, Mona getting married.

Makes me want to throw wild rice.

So am I to assume that I have your
permission to marry Mona?

Oh, Max, take my mother, please.

Oh, you have made me so happy. Welcome
to the family.

Mona kissed a lot of frogs to get to
this prince.

All right, all right, guys, now listen.

I want your advice on how to pop the
question.

I want to make this a very special
moment for Morna. Oh, I know exactly

do.

Down, down, down.

Take her to a little French restaurant
for a candlelight dinner, and when she's

not looking, you slip the ring into her
champagne glass. But make sure she

doesn't chug a log.

You know, Angela, I'm a little
surprised.

I thought you might go for something,
you know, a bit more romantic.

Like, picture this.

You're at Yankee Stadium.

Yankee Stadium.

On a hot day.

In one hand, you got a hot dog, mustard
and relish. In the other hand, you got a

cold beer, okay? In your lap is a box of
Cracker Jacks. Now, during the seventh

inning stretch, you go for the Cracker
Jacks, you open the box, and you pull

the prize.

And let me tell you, it ain't no plastic
whistle.

It's a diamond ring.

Oh. Suddenly, the organ player plays,
and

you hear over the loudspeaker, Angela
Bauer, will you marry me?

You say yes, the crowd roars, and we
live happily ever...

Well, I mean, you and the lucky guy live
happily ever after.

That is beautiful, Tony. That is so
sweet. Sweet, sweet, sweet.

nothing. Good things come to those who
wait.

Wait? Wait for what?

It's a surprise.

Oh, come on. Come on now. Give me just a
little hint. All right. I'll give you

just one little hint.

Will you marry me?

What?

Guess you couldn't wait till baseball
season.

Well, will you?

Oh, you big lug.

I'm yours.

forever.

Just as I pictured it.

But my answer is no. No? No.

No. There's that echo again.

Wow.

I never had my name in the sky before.

Oh, Max.

The candy and the flowers and now this.

You are spoiling me rotten.

And I'm a pushover for rotten.

And the answer is yes.

Well, everything's going so well for us.
Why change it?

Mona, I want to be with you all the
time.

We'll take a cruise around the world for
a year.

Mona, I want to take you away from all
of this. Well, I don't want to get away

from all of this. I want to keep my job.

I want to watch my grandson grow up
and...

I want to insult my daughter.

Why, fine.

Then we'll get married and stay here.

Max, what's the rush, huh?

Can't we just enjoy the moment?

Good moment.

That must be my darling grandson
delivering some more of your romantic

Beat it, Jonathan.

Suzanne Roberts.

I don't know any Suzanne Roberts.

I do.

That's my ex -wife.

Beat it, Suzanne.

Is Max there?

I'd better get it. She's a very
persistent lady.

Hello, Max.

Suzanne, what are you doing here?

Aren't you going to invite me in? No.

He never means what he says.

You must be Mona.

And you must be 25.

Next April.

Suzanne, what was important enough to
bring you all the way up here to

Connecticut? You.

Remember what you said when we split up?
That it was the biggest mistake of our

lives?

You are absolutely right.

Don't do that.

If you'd like to talk, we'll talk, but
this is neither the time nor the place.

Okay. How about my apartment?

Tonight.

How about right here? Right now?

You don't mind?

No. Of course not.

I'll be downstairs at Angela's.

How very gracious of you, Mona.

Max and I have a lot to catch up on.
Well, take your time.

Oh, and if you need a break, there's a
scratching post in the kitchen.

Oh. All right, all right.

Oh, baby.

Oh. Oh.

Come to papa.

A center cut roast.

New potatoes.

Baby carrots and gravy to die for.

Perfection in a pan.

Too bad I'm stuffed.

I never should have had that last
chocolate.

Yeah, order 40 before it.

Life is wonderful.

Oh, I'm glad to hear that, Mona. I hope
you're hungry.

No, I couldn't eat a thing.

Why don't I just pack up my meat to mom
and go where people eat?

Well, maybe I'll have a little later on.
It's just that...

Well, right now, I'm just too excited.

What do you mean?

Well, I've decided to marry Max.

Oh,

Mona, that's terrific.

Well, that's wonderful. What made you
change your mind? Who cares what made

change her mind?

We're getting married.

Ladies and young ladies, presenting...

this living room only, the future, Mrs.
Mona Robinson Muldoon.

So what do you think?

Uh, well, Mother, don't you think that's
a little risque for the wedding night?

This is for the wedding.

Hey, hey, hey, hey, let me tell you. We
had the greatest time out there. It's

bride's heaven out there, huh? We picked
out stemware, flatware, china patterns,

sheets, and towels.

I could not get him out of housewares.
Yeah, yeah. All she wanted to see was

stealing mirrors.

Come on, Samantha.

You can help me unwrap all the packages.

Oh, great. I can't wait to see what
you've got. Yeah, yeah. Mona, Mona,

let her near that red box.

Gee, you know.

Weddings are a lot of work.

Makes you wonder if they're even worth
it.

What? I thought this is what you wanted.

I thought it was, too.

Well, so what's wrong?

Mona's happy.

Max is happy. I'm happy.

You're a wet blanket.

Tony, something just doesn't add up. One
minute she wants to be free as a

gazelle, and the next minute she's
making a lifetime commitment.

Well, that's Mona.

You know, flighty, free -spirited,
wacko.

But, hey, she could take care of
herself.

Yeah, well, maybe you're right.

Aren't I always?

Do

you

think that I should invite Edith and
Edgar Simmons?

Sure, if you want to.

Well, I don't really want to, but they
invited me to their wedding.

So invite them.

Yeah, but it was a real snore.

Oh, don't invite them. But, you see, I
gave them a pricey gift, which probably

means they'll give me one.

Because Edith is incredibly small
-minded. She remembers these things.

Gosh, you know, isn't life funny?

You know, I mean, one minute you're
saying no, no, no, and the next minute

you're saying I do, I do, I do.

Well, you know... Mother, what... What
was that magic moment that made you

change your mind?

Well, actually, there were several,
dear.

We'll talk about it when you're older.

Mother,

I just can't help but think nothing...
Ah, Tony.

Just the man I wanted to talk to. Oh,
yeah? Do you think that we should invite

the Simmons to the wedding? Oh, the
Simmons. Well, I don't know. You know,

party he went to, he got drunk, he put a
lampshade on his head, and he started

taking his clothes off.

You're right. They're in.

Oh, it was terrific.

You should have seen the costumes. Oh,
and the routine.

And the legs on those babes.

Tongue to the floor.

Where did he get these things?

Pee -wee's Playhouse.

I almost forgot.

I've got some munchies here for you. Oh,
boy.

Hey, Mona, Mona, do not ruin your
appetite. I reheated this roast twice

One more time, I'll be wearing it on my
feet. Tell me, Cracker Jacks. With the

pies?

Oh, open it up, Mona. You know, it's a
good appetizer for roast.

You know,

the last time I opened one of these
things, I got one of those things you

that makes cricket noises.

That's from Cricket Clicker.

We helped pick it out.

We? You wanted to get the smaller one. I
was the one who held out for the major

rock.

That's my girl.

Oh, Max, we're going to be so happy
together.

Just the three of us.

A small token of my love. And not that
you care, but it's twice as big as

Suzanne's.

Suzanne? Who is Suzanne?

Oh, Max's ex -wife.

She dropped by a couple of days ago. Let
me tell you, Mona showed a great deal

of class.

Oh, what was your ex -wife doing here?

She wanted to get back together again.

Hey, hey, hey.

This guy is spoken for.

Now you're talking, Max, my man, huh? Is
this a cute couple or what?

Come on, Max, let's go up to my place.

Mother, could I have a word or two with
you in the kitchen, please?

No. Mother, we really need to talk.

You sure know how to spoil a girl's fun.

Don't go far, caveman.

I won't.

Well, Johnny, don't you think it's time
that we planned my bachelor party?

How about Thai Babylonia jumping out of
a cake?

Just want to ask you one thing.

Was the night she came over the night
you decided to marry Max?

Who remembers?

Angela, if you will excuse me, Max is
waiting for me, and I have some

to show. Just tell me if it was the same
night.

Angela, what is it with you?

Mother, just look at the fact. One
minute you want to be free, and the next

minute his ex -wife shows up and you've
got a diamond the size of a coconut.

Oh.

So that's what it's about, huh?

Coconut envy. Give me a little credit.

I just... I just think you feel
threatened.

Mona Robinson does not know the meaning
of the word threatened.

It means insecure.

Vulnerable.

Feeling inadequate to a former wife.

Who happens to be a younger woman.

Time to check my roast.

Angela, you don't know what you're
talking about. Mother, I just don't want

see you marry Max for the wrong reason.
Well, if you feel that way about it,

maybe you shouldn't come to my wedding.
Oh, we feel what way? Mother, I think...

You're overreacting. We can find some
other place to have the wedding. Some

place with more room and nicer
furniture.

Oh, Rona, why don't we just rent other
chairs?

We'll have it at Max's apartment.

Or on the yacht.

That would be very nice. Oh, time out.

Wait, what happened?

Don't worry, Tony.

You're still invited to the wedding.

What'd you do?

That woman will not listen to reason. Do
you know why she's marrying Max?

Because she's afraid of losing him to
Suzanne.

Oh, Angela, I don't think you're right.
I know I'm right.

Well, maybe you are, but maybe you're
wrong.

Hey, one thing's for sure.

She's your mother, she's getting
married, and you should be there.

You heard her. She doesn't even want me
there.

What is this world coming to?

It's enough to break a housekeeper's
heart.

All right, Jonathan, are you ready to
take over? Sure, Grandma. What do I do?

Well, right here where it says the
wedding will take place at 3344 Oak

Drive, cross that out.

Put Pier 61.

Getting married on a boat is a neat
idea.

If anybody brings a cheapo gift, you can
make them walk the plank.

Yes.

How's it going?

Fine. I couldn't be happier.

Jonathan, would you like to run out and
mail those invitations?

Sure, Grandma.

As soon as you marry Max, will he put me
in his will?

Goodbye, Jonathan.

I came to deliver this.

Oh.

Our first wedding gift, huh?

Yes, it's from me.

Why?

Open it.

It's great -grandmother's sterling comb.

Yes, you gave it to me when I married
Michael.

And now I want you to have it.

Do you remember what you said when you
gave it to me?

Break it and you're dead.

I mean after that.

Just some mushy stuff.

I remember exactly.

You said Michael wasn't your first
choice for me as a husband.

But that I'd always be your first choice
as a daughter.

I said that?

Yes.

And you said that as long as I was
happy, that's all you cared about.

And now I'm saying that to you.

Thank you, dear.

And now can I please come to your
wedding?

You should see Suzanne.

She's really beautiful.

Max has great taste in women.

This insecurity thing is new to me.

You've come to the master.

You could lean on me.

I will.

In just a second...

Mother, where are you going? I'm going
to stop Jonathan from mailing those

invitations.

This lady is not getting married until
she's good and ready.

Oh, I just hope Max understands.

Oh, of course he will.

No, I mean about keeping this coconut.

Oh, Tony, you really know how to throw a
bachelor party.

Yeah, this is wild.

You know, I gotta say, Max, you're a
real good sport going through with this,

even though Mona called off the wedding,
you know. Hey, don't count me out yet.

You know, I didn't become a successful
businessman by taking no for an answer.

She'll come around.

I don't know, you know, you never can
tell with these Robinson women.

Hey, um...

Speaking of women, wait till you see the
video I got.

Huh? Oh, this is going to knock your
socks off.

Get ready, boys.

Welcome to the Ice Capades, a
celebration of escape.

All right, this is hot.
