All language subtitles for Silver Spoons s03e18 Rick and the Legend.eng

Here we are, face to face, a couple of
silver spoons.

Open to find, we're two of a kind. Make
it a go, make it grow.

Together, we're gonna find our way.

Together, taking the time each day.

To learn all about those things you just
can't buy.

Two silver spoons together.

You and I together.

We're gonna find our way.

You and I together.

We're gonna find our way.

You and I together.

And sometime.

You know, you can't overdo that jogging
stuff.

Right.

Son, how'd you get home from school so
fast?

My friend Ledge drove me.

That's him parking his wheel.

You have a friend that drives a cement
mixer?

make a car sound that cool?

Yeah, you don't tune it for six years
and then you take the muffler off.

Do me a favor, Dad. When Ledge comes in,
please don't make any jokes about his

car. I won't have to. I can make jokes
about his name.

Why is it called Ledge?

It's short for legend.

Ah.

Good thing his nickname isn't
Stupendous.

Dad, he's 16.

He's my ticket into the cool crowd.

Wow, Ledge is cool by association.

Come on in, Ledge. I want you to meet my
dad.

Dad, this is Ledge and Matthew.

Ledge, this is my dad.

Glad to meet you.

Same here.

Nice place you got here, Jake.

Jake?

Ledge calls everybody Jake.

Ah.

That's nice.

Why? It's my thing.

What do you call people named Jake?

I never met anybody named Jake.

But I guess I call him Jake.

That ledge has his own place.

You do?

Where are your parents?

In the house, I guess.

I turned our garage into an apartment.

He has a stereo, a refrigerator, a
mattress, and a life -size poster of

Brinkley.

Sounds real homey.

Yeah, I figure sooner or later a guy's
got to get his own place.

Don't you ever see your parents?

Yeah, I saw my mom this morning. Where
do you think I got this earring?

Dad, is it okay if we use the garage?

Ledger's going to show me how to do a
lube job on his car.

Did sound a little squeaky.

Ledge has just about got his 66 stang in
primo condition.

I'm trying to save $118 for an important
part I need.

A muffler?

No, an 18 -note car horn.

Love those horns.

Oh, before I forget, will you sign this?

We're taking a field trip to the U .N.
Oh, sure, son.

hand, Jake.

Is that real gold?

Yeah. My grandfather gave it to me when
I was a kid.

Wow.

That must be really old.

There you go, son. Thanks.

Well, I'm gonna go jog.

Catch you later, Jake.

Hi, Jake.

Sure. Got change for ten?

Yep. Here's a quarter.

Thanks.

I just had a conversation with Letch.

You mean ledge.

No, I mean letch.

He said if I ever broke up with you, I
should give him a call.

Come on, Katie was just kidding.

Oh, was he? Well, why did he give me his
number on this matchbook?

That little punk.

Why does Rick want to hang around with
this guy?

Oh, he's probably taken in by that...
Matt, Dylan, James, Dean, Marlon Brand,

rebellious attitude.

All right, I just named my three
favorite actors.

Well, maybe the best thing for you to do
is to tell Ricky you'd prefer it if he

didn't hang around with his kid anymore.

Believe me, Kate, every instinct in my
body tells me to do that.

But I'm going to follow Dr.

Sorrentino's advice on this.

He says that attacking your son's friend
only makes your son defensive.

And that I should keep in mind the three
Cs. Stay calm, cool, and clear -headed.

Hiya, Jake!

Who are you calling Jake?

Edward, what happened to the three Cs?

Son, you may call me Dad, or Father, or
Pater, or Pop.

And even, I don't like this one a whole
lot, Edward. But not... Jake.

Okay, Dad.

Here are the keys to your Ferrari.

What are you doing with these?

Well, it was blocking the garage, so
Ledge moved out of the way.

You let that hockey puck drive my
Ferrari?

Uh -oh.

Ledge said there might be trouble.

Well, in all fairness to your father,
you should have asked permission.

Ledge said if you have to ask a parent
something, it's a guaranteed no.

Oh, Ledge said that, did he? Well, I...
I'll tell you what your father says. You

ever let that kid near my car again, and
you're in big trouble.

And two things I never want to hear
again.

Legs said, and hiya, Jake.

So, Jake, I got sort of a problem.

In history class, we're supposed to do a
report on a famous American.

I just can't. Think of anyone.

Well, how about John F. Kennedy?

Hey, he's American.

And famous.

But is he famous enough to fill six to
eight pages?

Of course.

Typewritten double -spaced?

Uh -huh. And could you throw in
footnotes in a bibliography?

Oh, you want me to do this for you?

Hey, thanks.

And to show you my appreciation...

I'll take you to the drag race this
Saturday night.

You got a deal.

Hey, Rick, maybe you can get a lot of
things wrong so it'll look like Ledge

really did it himself.

Good thinking.

Maybe someday I'll let you do a paper
for me.

You mean it?

What do you think? I'm gonna do it?

Any more items for the dry cleaner, sir?

No, I don't think so, Winthrop. Thank
you.

Oh, what about your jacket?

Oh, yeah.

Ah, would you take this jacket for me,
Winthrop?

It would make my day.

Where's my gold pen?

Oh, are you sure you put it in your
coat?

Yeah, I'm absolutely sure.

I remember the last time I saw it, too.

Ledge was admiring it.

He wanted to know if it was real gold.

Well, you think he stole it?

My gold pen would sure pay for Ledge's
nice new horn, wouldn't it?

I'm sorry, Winthrop. Here.

Thank you.

Jake.

That does it, Pete.

Had it with that juvenile delinquent.

You're not even sure he took it. Oh,
grow up, Kate. He had the opportunity,

had the motive, and it'd be just like
him to do something like that.

Well, I think you're jumping to
conclusions.

Why don't I go look in the library?

Go ahead.

You're wasting your time.

That pen is now playing La Cucaracha.

Here you go, Ledge.

Return it whenever you want. Thanks,
Jake. Rick, that's your umbrella.

I know, but it might rain. And Ledge
can't get the top of his car up.

Heard your new horn.

Nice tune.

It plays 75 others, including Ave Maria.

I made a station wagon full of nuns cry.

You know, I'm reminded of the fact that
just a few days ago, you didn't have

enough money to buy a new horn. And now
you do.

Life, huh?

I came into some money.

Really?

How fortunate.

Yep. Well, I gotta go.

Catch you later.

Rick?

You have any notes from school you need
me to sign?

No, I don't.

That's good, because I don't have my
gold pen anymore.

What happened to it?

Well, either it got up and walked away
by itself...

Or your friend stole it?

You know, Dad, I've kept cool about
this.

But I'm going to come right out and say
it.

You just don't like ledge.

Son, he took my pen to pay for that
stupid horn.

He explained where he got the money.

He came into it.

Right.

What is the fascination with this guy?

Dad, he shaves twice a week.

He's going out with a 24 -year -old
waitress named Susie.

The guy is a legend.

He's teaching me a lot.

That's what I'm afraid of.

I'm sorry you don't like ledge, because
I do.

Son, I just want you to be your own
person.

Not some hot -rotting, bee -bopping,
jive -talking, Jake -calling pen

You have no proof of that.

And you have no right to tell me my
friend should be.

A parent just doesn't understand.

Oh, is that another thing that Ledge
said?

No.

He wrote a song about it.

Shouldn't Ledge be here by now?

The drag race is starting in half an
hour.

And it takes 45 minutes to get there.

Not the way Ledge drives.

I wish you'd go with us. But it's like
Ledge says.

No.

How about a quick round of checkers with
your old buddy?

Sure. I guess there's still a small part
of me that enjoys those simple things.

But just one quick game, okay?

Alright.

Three hours late.

He could have had an accident.

Maybe he was driving along and took his
hands off the wheel to do this.

I hope not.

Don't feel so bad, Rick. He just
probably decided to ditch you and go

with other people.

I bet you wouldn't do that to a friend.

He has a code. He lives by it.

I'm going to call his place again.

Hey, Ledge, it's Rick.

I can hardly hear you. Will you turn on
the TV?

Oh.

Those are real people laughing and
having fun.

What happened to the drag races?

That good, huh?

Thought you were supposed to take me.

Uh -huh.

Uh -huh.

I'll catch you later.

Gee.

I do not want to eat at Kung Pao Gardens
again.

I think you had too much of the twice
-fried pork.

Yeah. Once fried is enough.

Hey, look.

Your pen.

My pen?

And there's a note from the butler.

Dear sir, this pen was retrieved from
the lining of your port coat by Swifty's

dry cleaning service.

How about that?

That was nice of Swifty's to return it.

Looks like the world is full of honest
people.

It also looks like Ledge really did come
into some money. I guess.

Probably stole somebody else's pen.

Okay, okay, okay, okay.

I guess I was a little quick to judge,
because I can't stand the bummer.

Alfonso. What are you doing here?

I was hanging out with Rick.

He's home?

He didn't go to the drag races?

Uh, no.

Oops, got to split. Bye.

Wait.

I'll give you a ride home.

I think you ought to apologize to Rick.

Right.

I think now that I have my pen, I could
just write him a note.

Right.

You didn't go to the drag races, huh?

No, I had to finish some schoolwork.

A paper on John F. Kennedy.

Oh.

You know, I always admired John F.
Kennedy because he could admit when he

wrong.

I always thought that was so admirable.

So endearing.

So human.

So... Mature.

So... So what are you wrong about?

Found my pen.

See, it was somehow down in the lining
of my coat.

I told you Ledge didn't steal it.

I was so sure that kid was no good, I
wanted to find something wrong, no

if it was true or not.

I guess he has more character than I
gave him credit for.

You're wrong again, Dad.

Huh?

Wedge isn't such a great guy.

You see, the reason I didn't go to the
racist side is because he had something

better to do.

He was just taking advantage of me.

I was giving him gas money, doing his
homework, following him around like a

little puppy.

I wanted to be just like him.

I should have listened to you.

I feel so stupid.

Come on, you can't feel stupid every
time somebody disappoints you.

See, you'll find through life, son, that
people are like... like

shoes.

Well, what I mean is you gotta try on
all kinds of different styles before you

decide what you really want.

And sometimes what seems really great in
the store winds up pinching your feet

and giving you blisters.

See, you can't blame yourself. It
happens to everybody.

Makes sense, Dad.

Good.

But I have to disagree with you on one
thing.

What's that?

I think people more like raincoats.

Maybe waffle iron.

Maybe lawnmowers.

How's it going, Jake?

Oh, hi, Ledge.

So you need a ride to school?

No, thanks. I can't afford it.

I don't have five dollars.

Oh, I get it.

You're a little bummed because of the
drag races.

Listen, I was thinking of calling you,
but...

Some people came over. One thing led to
another.

Where's my Kennedy paper?

Oh, the Kennedy paper. It's right here.

I have it researched, typed, and
footnoted.

All right. It's due this morning.

Catch you later, Jake.

I don't believe you gave him that
Kennedy paper after what he did to you

other night.

Here's a copy of it.

Read it.

F. Kennedy, a great American.

John F. Kennedy was the 35th president
of the United States.

Before that, he was the senator of
Massachusetts.

And before that, he had a balloon farm
on Mars?

Rick,

you'll probably get an F on this paper.
