All language subtitles for I Love Lucy s06e14 little ricky gets a dog

Good morning.

Hi, honey. Oh, hi.

Say, I'm going to the market pretty
soon. You want to go with me? I can't. I

have to take care of little Ricky's
little friends.

Lucy, it looks like you're running a pet
shop.

Oh, you're telling me.

Every morning I have to change the paper
in Alice and Phil's cage.

I have to feed Tommy and Jimmy their
turtle food.

And I have to water their little palm
tree.

I have to tidy up the cigar box for
Hopalong. Hopalong? He's the frog.

Oh. And I have to change the water for
Mildred and Charles.

I wonder if this is the way Osa Johnson
started.

Come on, Mildred.

Come here.

Come,

Mildred.

Sweetheart. There we are.

Hey, girl, you're pretty good at that.

Well, Mildred's easy. Charles is the
problem.

Oh, Charles.

Come, dear.

Charles. Charles.

Chucky Wucky.

Charles.

Charles. I'll tell you what you mean.

I have several different techniques I
work with him. Sometimes I sneak up on

him.

Then again, I just act nonchalant, you
know, sort of stroll away and...

And then when I think he's off his
guard, I just... Listen, let me borrow

hairnet.

Oh, no, you don't. Oh, come on. I'll buy
you a new one.

Well, okay.

Yeah.

Gee, I don't know why I didn't think of
this before. Oh, help me, will you?

Go from here, okay?

I'll hold on to the net now. You just
tip up as far as you can.

Okay, go. Fast. Real fast.

I got it. I got it. I got it.

There.

Now, that was simple, wasn't it?

Simple? Gregory Peck had less trouble
with Moby Dick.

Well, that's life.

Children bring home pets. Mothers take
care of them.

Oh,

now, who's the lettuce for?

Lunch for Hopalong.

Well, I think it's important for a child
to have pets, especially a city child,

you know.

Gee, sometimes I think we should move to
the country so little Ricky could have

all the animals he wants.

Oh, Lucy, don't even say you might move
away.

I don't know what I'd do without you.

Well, frankly, Ethel, I don't know what
I'd do without you either.

Besides, with another vacant apartment,
Frantic Freddy would blow what's left of

his top.

I just went through three weeks of
torture with that apartment next door.

Hey, speaking of our new neighbors, are
there any little children Ricky's age?

No, it's a bachelor, a Mr. Stewart.

And he's an old grouch.

Why would Fred rent to an old grouch?

Well, to one old grouch, another old
grouch doesn't seem like an old grouch.

And he's going to pay to have his
kitchen remodeled, so Fred doesn't care

anything about his disposition.

Oh. Well, I'm going out to the market,
honey. You want anything?

Well, not for us, but Alice and Phil
could use some bird seed, and Tommy and

Jimmy could use some turtle food, and
Mildred and Charles could use some fish

food. Wouldn't it be easier if they just
ate each other?

I'll tell you later. Okay.

Whose is it? Mine.

Yours? Uh -huh.

Is that one of Billy Palmer's six
puppies?

Oh, now, honey, listen, it's a very
sweet little puppy, but I'm afraid we're

going to be able to keep it. Why not?

Well, for one thing, dear, our house is
too small for a dog.

But, Mommy, it's a small dog.

Well, I know, but he's going to grow
bigger.

Maybe our house will grow bigger, too.

Look, honey, I got all I can do to take
care of your fish and your parakeets and

your frog and your turtles.

But, Mommy!

Oh, now, honey, I'm sorry. I'm just
going to have to call Billy's mommy and

her that we can't keep the puppy. I'm
sorry, sweetheart. You take your things

off now.

Lillian? Lillian, this is Lucy.

Yes, about the little puppy.

About the little pup... Well, I... I
just wanted to say...

I just wanted to say thank you for this
sweet little puppy.

Yes. Well, thank you very much.

Goodbye. Oh, boy, thanks, Mommy. Well,
honey, I can't make any promises, but

we'll just have to wait until Daddy
comes home and see what he thinks, huh?

Okay, you go to your room now,
sweetheart.

Okay, mommy.

Oh, hi,

dear. Oh, hi, honey.

Where's little Ricky?

He's in his room.

Oh, good.

Go say hello to him. Oh, honey, before
you do, come here.

We, uh, we have a bit of a problem.

Well, what is it?

He brought home a little puppy dog
today.

Honey, you know that he can't keep a dog
in his apartment.

There's no room.

I know that, dear. He already has frogs
and turtles and parakeets and goldfish

and lizard.

The lizard fell out the window,
remember?

He didn't fall out of the window. He
jumped out to get away from the crowd.

Now, look, honey, he cannot keep a dog
in this apartment.

I know, I know.

Well, did you tell him? Were you firm
about it?

Well, not exactly.

Well, what did you tell him? Well, I
told him he'd have to wait until Daddy

home and let him decide whether we could
keep the dog or not.

Oh, that's being firm.

Well, can I help it if I'm soft and
squishy?

Oh, he's the cutest little puppy. Wait
till you see him together, honey. Look,

there, it's out of the question.

The boy cannot keep a dog in this
apartment.

Now, the trouble with you is that you
don't use enough discipline with the

child. I'll just go in there and tell
him, little Ricky, you cannot keep a dog

in this apartment, and that's that.

Hi,

Daddy. Hi, son.

Oh, is that your little dog?

He's very cute.

Hi there, boy.

He likes you, Daddy.

Yes, he's very cute.

Look, partner, I have to have a little
talk with you.

Now, I know that you're all enough.

to know that you cannot have everything
that you want.

Now, it just so happens that... Can you
talk to him, dear?

Yeah. Where are you going?

Down to the basement to get a box.

A box?

Well, that little puppy can't sleep on
that cold floor all night.

Oh, hi.

Hi. Hi, Fred.

Hi. Hey, say, Fred, have you got a box
down in the basement?

Yeah, what for?

For little Ricky's dog.

Oh, the dog.

Yeah.

That's what I want to talk to you about.
Ethel just told me about.

Yeah? You can't have a dog in this
apartment.

Oh, it's only a tiny little bitty dog.
Yeah, Fred. We're not going to let him

grow very big.

But there's no pet clause in your lease.

Oh, now, Fred.

Now, haven't I been lenient?

Didn't I close my eyes when you got the
turtles?

Didn't I look the other way when the
frogs and the goldfish arrived?

Didn't I keep quiet when you got those
two molting buzzards?

I got to draw the line someplace.

That pooch has got to go.

Oh, Fred, you haven't seen him. He is
the cutest little thing. One more word

of you, Ethel, and you go, too.

Well, I'm afraid that Fred's right.
Well, I'm sorry. Oh, honey.

I'm sorry, but if I let little Ricky
have a dog, everybody in the building

want one.

I don't mind being a landlord.

But I'll be darned if I'm going to run a
pet motel.

All right, Fred, all right, we
understand.

Mommy, Daddy.

What is it, dear?

I found a name for my dog.

Oh, what?

I spent to get the box.

Come on, Ray.

Oh, wonderful.

Oh, boy.

You saved the day, sweetheart.

Hey!

What time is it?

Huh? What time is it?

Three o 'clock. Oh.

He's getting better. He hasn't yipped in
about 20 minutes.

Will you go out in the kitchen and see
if you can quiet him down again?

No, now you go. It's your turn.

I'm setting this one out. You go.

Okay, okay.

Listen, what am I going to do with you?

Oh, dear.

Fred, I told you to go to sleep.

Do you understand?

Sleep, sleep, sleep. Look at me.

I'll sing you to sleep.

Now, come on, Fred.

Please, please, please go to sleep.
Please, Fred.

Rock -a -bye.

sure. You're no lassie either.

Now, Fred, please get in there and go to
sleep.

Don't you know what time it is?

Three o 'clock in the morning.

You hear me?

Three o 'clock.

Hey, maybe that will work.

Now, you get down there. See? Now, look.
Nice clock. Nice clock. That's a good

boy. Look at that.

Look at that.

Yeah.

Yeah, see?

That's a nice boy.

That's a nice friend.

Yeah.

Hey, he stopped.

How you doing?

Well, I remember reading someplace if
you put a clock in with a little puppy,

they go to sleep.

The ticking sound keeps them company or
something. I don't know. Oh, nice work.

We hope.

Good night. Good night.

Mr. Stewart, the new tenant just phoned
and threatens to move.

All right. Lucy, I'm sorry, but it's
either the tenant or the dog.

And dogs don't pay rent.

All right, Fred. All right, we'll get
rid of him tomorrow morning. Well, see

that you do.

Okay. Come on, Fred. You're awful
cranky. Yeah, go back to bed, will you,

Oh.

Now, look, honey, I'm sorry.

But you will have to tell little Ricky
that he has to get rid of the dog.

I'll make a deal with you. You tell
little Ricky, I'll tell the dog.

Look, honey, let's be sensible.

Tomorrow morning, when little Ricky gets
up, one of us will tell him.

Which one?

Well, whoever sees him first.

Okay.

Okay.

Good morning, Fred.

Ricky Ricardo, will you please tell me
where you were going?

Me? Uh, rehearsal.

Yeah, that's it. Rehearsal at the club.

At 7 o 'clock in the morning?

Well, yeah, well... Uh, never mind about
me. Where were you going?

To the market.

The market is open at 7 o 'clock in the
morning? If you can have a rehearsal,

the market can be open.

I know you were trying to do.

You were trying to sneak out of the
apartment so you didn't have to tell

Ricky. Yeah, well, you got to get up
awful early in the morning to sneak out

this apartment.

I can say that again.

Yeah.

You're right, honey.

I'm his father.

I guess I should tell him.

Oh, well, honey, I'm glad you finally
decided.

Hi, Mommy. Hi, Daddy. Hi, son. Good
morning, sweetheart.

Say, I want to talk to you, partner.

to have a talk here.

I want to tell you that, uh... I want to
tell you that, uh...

I want to tell you that your mother has
something to tell you. I am late.

Goodbye, everybody.

Well, honey, listen.

Listen, sweetheart.

Oh, it's not important. It can wait.
What say you and Fred and I have some

breakfast? Okay. Okay, come on,
sweetheart.

You are the cutest thing.

Oh, come on, he just loves his hat.

Look at that.

Who is it?

It's me, Fred.

Well, what is it, Fred?

Well, Mr.

Stewart here claims that he heard a dog
barking.

You did get rid of that dog, didn't you,
Lucy?

Well, you told me to, didn't you, Fred?

Mr. Stewart, but he insists on having a
look for himself.

Oh. Oh, well, just a minute, Fred.
Honey, it's way past your nap time. You

in and take your nap, sweetheart.

Okay, Mommy. Thank you, sweetheart.

Come on.

Okay.

Okay, Fred, just a minute.

Oh, hello, Fred. Oh, hello. This is Mr.

Stewart, your new neighbor. This is Mrs.
Ricardo.

How do you do, sir? Do you have a dog in
here?

A dog in here?

I told you they'd get rid of it. Then
what was that barking a few minutes ago?

Oh, you must have been hearing things,
sir.

Now, just remember this.

If I find there is a dog in this
building, I'm taking back the first and

month's rent and moving out.

I can assure you there's no dog around
here.

Right, Lucy?

No, you aren't.

Well, there's no dog in this apartment.

What are these doing here?

Oh, they're mine.

I love a snack in the afternoon.

You eat dog biscuits?

Oh, yes.

Yes, yes. They're wonderful.

I just love them.

Oh,

you should try it. They got it all over
donuts for dunking.

Fred?

No, no, thanks. I'm trying to cut down.

Mr. Stewart, your new neighbor. This is
Mr. Ricardo. Oh, how do you do?

I'm sorry about all that noise last
night. It won't happen again.

I should hope not.

Oh, we got rid of the dog this morning.

Then we'll see.

Well, you don't see him around, do you?

Oh, good.

Excuse me.

Oh, I'll hang that up for you, dear. I
can do it. No, no, no, I'll do it.

what wives are for.

Oh, so that's what they're for.

Say, uh, Mr. Stewart?

business are you in?

I'm retired.

Oh, well, nice work if you can get it.

Mr.

Ricardo's in the nightclub business.

You've probably heard of it.

I never go to nightclubs.

Mr.

Stewart wants to remodel his kitchen,
Ricky. Do you mind if he has a look at

yours? Well, we have a very modest...
Yeah, go ahead, honey. Show him the

kitchen. Go ahead, dear. The kitchen's
right in here, Mr. Stewart. Right in

here. What's that doing on the floor?

Oh, I was going to practice my hat
dancing.

Hat dancing.

Oh, I was going to try to surprise you,
dear. I've been taking hat dancing

lessons from Arthur Murray.

you understand.

I understand.

I'm a very nice carpenter.

What was that?

It's me. I'm playing the piano.

I'm saying you play the piano.

I thought I'd play the piano so that I
could accompany myself in my hat

Well, it's progressive jazz.

Here's your dog, son.

That doesn't work. I'm moving.

I must remind you, Stuart, you have a
lease.

The lease says no pets.

Now, either the dog goes or I go.

Good. I'd rather live with a little dog
than a big grouch.

Here, take your check back and scram.

With pleasure.

Adios.

Oh, I guess I told him.

Hey, what's the matter with Mr. Stewart?
Oh, Fred just did a wonderful thing. He

sure did. He told Mr. Stewart he could
take his check back and told him to

scram. Yeah, darn right I did. It's not
the money, it's the principle of the

thing. Fred, you gave him back the whole
two... $250?

Yes, I gave him back the whole $250.

$250?
