1
00:00:11,020 --> 00:00:13,880
Come every time Mary and Doug go in her
room, they lock the door.

2
00:00:14,100 --> 00:00:17,380
Oh, well, that's because... Well,

3
00:00:18,220 --> 00:00:20,340
you don't really want to know that, do
you?

4
00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:26,620
Oh. All right, then I'll tell you.

5
00:00:27,660 --> 00:00:34,400
What it is, is... You see, I wasn't
really expecting to have to go through

6
00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:38,920
with you for a few more years, but...
All right, I'll explain it to you right

7
00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:40,560
now. Now, just sit down.

8
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:42,600
You are, so stay there.

9
00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:44,320
Here's what it is.

10
00:00:44,900 --> 00:00:46,640
It's interesting. You'll be fascinated.

11
00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:53,860
What it is is that everybody, worms,

12
00:00:54,120 --> 00:01:00,860
fish, birds, the bees, everybody, are
here. Are

13
00:01:00,860 --> 00:01:01,860
you listening?

14
00:01:02,460 --> 00:01:09,340
People grow up, and when they grow up,
they fall in love, and they want to

15
00:01:09,340 --> 00:01:10,340
be close.

16
00:01:11,020 --> 00:01:13,620
So they can spooch. I know all that.

17
00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:15,480
You do?

18
00:01:15,700 --> 00:01:19,720
Uh -huh. I know that. You know that.
Everybody else knows that. So why do

19
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:20,840
have to lock the door?

20
00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:24,340
Well, because they don't know that we
know what they know.

21
00:01:25,420 --> 00:01:27,520
Oh, then I guess you better not tell
them.

22
00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:28,860
My lips are sealed.

23
00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:37,800
Thank you, Dad.

24
00:02:38,580 --> 00:02:39,780
Tom, do that. Okay.

25
00:02:48,940 --> 00:02:52,360
Hi. Fisher versus Spassky. I can see.

26
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:54,360
Doug, do you want another sandwich?

27
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:56,740
Not until I beat Dr. Maxwell.

28
00:02:57,400 --> 00:02:59,600
Future psychiatrist trying to psych me
out.

29
00:02:59,900 --> 00:03:02,000
Two moves. Just two more moves. That's
all.

30
00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:03,379
Two moves.

31
00:03:03,380 --> 00:03:04,380
Good luck.

32
00:03:06,850 --> 00:03:10,530
How can you keep dragging Doug to these
quaint little family gatherings, Mary?

33
00:03:10,970 --> 00:03:14,450
I'm not dragging him, Nancy. He happens
to enjoy quaint.

34
00:03:15,010 --> 00:03:16,010
Oh, I don't know.

35
00:03:16,370 --> 00:03:18,510
I could think of plenty of better things
to do.

36
00:03:18,730 --> 00:03:20,030
Ah, yes, I can see it now.

37
00:03:20,330 --> 00:03:25,190
Nancy and her beloved. Some quiet,
lonely street. Window shopping.

38
00:03:26,050 --> 00:03:27,490
Hurry up and win, somebody.

39
00:03:29,990 --> 00:03:30,990
Checkmate.

40
00:03:58,570 --> 00:04:00,690
Statue of Liberty play. Old is right.

41
00:04:01,690 --> 00:04:02,690
Prehistoric is more right.

42
00:04:02,910 --> 00:04:08,150
Now, Tommy, you take the ball. David,
you play long, and Doug, you stay back

43
00:04:08,150 --> 00:04:11,770
block, all right? Got it. Okay, on one,
two. All right. Let's go.

44
00:04:13,630 --> 00:04:20,310
Lucky at chess, but unlucky at football.

45
00:04:21,250 --> 00:04:24,190
What the hostility, doctor, your youth
fixation is showing.

46
00:04:24,990 --> 00:04:27,030
Okay, now, one, two.

47
00:04:47,850 --> 00:04:51,050
youth fixation of mine. Really? Sorry I
knocked you down, Tommy. Hey, Tom.

48
00:04:51,910 --> 00:04:53,650
I can't move my right leg.

49
00:04:54,450 --> 00:04:57,550
Stay cool. You got a doctor and a half
here. Can you move your toes?

50
00:04:58,410 --> 00:04:59,410
Uh -uh, they're numb.

51
00:04:59,630 --> 00:05:00,970
Well, what's the matter? What happened?

52
00:05:01,630 --> 00:05:03,090
Looks like he might have a sprained
ankle.

53
00:05:03,430 --> 00:05:04,430
Now, hold on.

54
00:05:04,650 --> 00:05:05,650
You see that?

55
00:05:06,210 --> 00:05:07,670
Oh, yeah. Maybe a fractured tibia.

56
00:05:08,430 --> 00:05:09,810
I think we better get some x -rays.

57
00:05:10,110 --> 00:05:11,710
You mean it's broken? It can't be.

58
00:05:16,340 --> 00:05:17,620
What's it say? I can't read it.

59
00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:23,300
Roses are red, violets are blue, take
two aspirin, foamy in the morning.

60
00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:26,760
I'm a doctor, not a poet.

61
00:05:27,740 --> 00:05:31,200
Do you want another pillow? Yeah, the
thing itches and I can't get

62
00:05:31,620 --> 00:05:32,900
Well, that'll pass.

63
00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:36,400
In about a week, you should be able to
manage the steps with the crutches.

64
00:05:36,740 --> 00:05:40,700
Well, if he can do that, why can't he
manage the steps at school? Five weeks

65
00:05:40,700 --> 00:05:44,020
an awfully long time. Yeah, but at his
age, Tommy should stay off it as much as

66
00:05:44,020 --> 00:05:45,420
possible if you want a perfect mend.

67
00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:47,220
Well, I don't mind missing school, Dad.

68
00:05:47,460 --> 00:05:49,060
Yeah, but school mind's missing you.

69
00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:51,340
Their policy is to send over a tutor.

70
00:05:52,140 --> 00:05:53,140
A tutor?

71
00:05:53,340 --> 00:05:54,720
Terrific. I can hardly wait.

72
00:05:55,220 --> 00:05:58,920
Listen, as I record your last report
card, a tutor would be a lucky break.

73
00:05:59,460 --> 00:06:01,840
Gee, two breaks in one day.

74
00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:04,800
There you go.

75
00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:08,040
Well, I'm gonna go upstairs and see if
Tommy needs anything.

76
00:06:08,420 --> 00:06:11,660
Oh, he doesn't need anything. He gets a
whole room to himself.

77
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:13,380
I'm stuck with Dad.

78
00:06:13,660 --> 00:06:14,660
Oh.

79
00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:16,379
Cheer up, kid.

80
00:06:16,380 --> 00:06:17,540
Dad only snores at night.

81
00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:20,440
How old were you when you got your own
room?

82
00:06:21,420 --> 00:06:22,460
I've always had my own room.

83
00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:24,060
Remember? I was born first.

84
00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:26,720
It must have been fun to be born first.

85
00:06:27,060 --> 00:06:28,060
Mm -hmm. Yeah.

86
00:06:28,540 --> 00:06:33,320
I was the first to get spanked, the
first to get the measles, and the first

87
00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:34,340
get grounded for breaking curfew.

88
00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:38,420
I bet nobody ever called you the baby of
the family.

89
00:06:39,140 --> 00:06:40,680
Drink your milk. You'll grow up better.

90
00:07:08,010 --> 00:07:09,650
He did ask you to the movie, didn't he?

91
00:07:11,530 --> 00:07:13,170
What do you mean, not in so many words?

92
00:07:14,690 --> 00:07:16,030
Will somebody get the door?

93
00:07:18,410 --> 00:07:19,410
That must be Doug.

94
00:07:19,610 --> 00:07:22,450
Elizabeth, will you turn the oven off at
six, please? Can't you see I'm on the

95
00:07:22,450 --> 00:07:26,150
phone? Yes, I can see you're on the
phone, but there's a roast in the oven,

96
00:07:26,150 --> 00:07:27,150
it has to come out at six.

97
00:07:27,490 --> 00:07:29,310
Sure. Yeah, I'm still here.

98
00:07:30,130 --> 00:07:31,430
Hey. Hello.

99
00:07:31,750 --> 00:07:34,350
I'm Sandra Sue Abbott. I'm here to tutor
Tom Bradford.

100
00:07:34,970 --> 00:07:36,090
Tom? Mm -hmm.

101
00:07:36,290 --> 00:07:38,350
Tommy. Tom, you're from school?

102
00:07:38,630 --> 00:07:40,350
Hi, come on in and I'll take you
upstairs.

103
00:07:40,670 --> 00:07:44,690
Hey, Mary, come on, hi, we're late. Hi,
uh, Elizabeth, would you please get off

104
00:07:44,690 --> 00:07:46,090
the phone and take Mrs. Abbott upstairs?

105
00:07:47,970 --> 00:07:49,770
Bye. Bye. Bye -bye. Bye.

106
00:07:51,270 --> 00:07:52,730
Elizabeth! Elizabeth!

107
00:07:53,490 --> 00:07:54,490
Where are you?

108
00:07:55,710 --> 00:07:57,550
Oh, you asked him.

109
00:07:58,190 --> 00:07:59,190
I see.

110
00:07:59,350 --> 00:08:01,150
Hi. Hi. I'm here to tutor Tom.

111
00:08:01,750 --> 00:08:02,750
Tom?

112
00:08:02,860 --> 00:08:04,280
Oh, you mean Tommy. Tommy, yes.

113
00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:06,860
Well, I'll take you up to him in just a
second, okay? Okay.

114
00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:11,140
Elizabeth, I've been looking all over
for my new bracelet.

115
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:12,360
You have it.

116
00:08:12,820 --> 00:08:14,940
Can't anyone have a conversation around
here?

117
00:08:15,340 --> 00:08:18,520
Sure, just give me back my bracelet,
please. Excuse me, would you... You

118
00:08:18,540 --> 00:08:20,520
you never... I'll just go on up, okay?

119
00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:22,360
Oh,

120
00:08:23,980 --> 00:08:24,980
hi.

121
00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:26,120
Oh, hello.

122
00:08:26,620 --> 00:08:28,640
Hey, listen, do you live here, too?

123
00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:33,159
Sure. Second floor, third door on the
right. Would you mind telling me how to

124
00:08:33,159 --> 00:08:34,380
find Tommy Braffer?

125
00:08:35,659 --> 00:08:36,659
I'll see you later.

126
00:08:37,980 --> 00:08:40,039
I'm just going to go on up. Who broke my
foot?

127
00:08:41,220 --> 00:08:43,419
You're too young to be Tommy. I'm
Nicholas.

128
00:08:43,620 --> 00:08:44,700
Tommy has a broken leg.

129
00:08:44,940 --> 00:08:48,460
Yeah. Do you know how to do this? I
certainly do, and I will if you take me

130
00:08:48,460 --> 00:08:50,160
Tommy. It's a deal. Okay.

131
00:08:50,740 --> 00:08:51,740
Let's go.

132
00:08:58,380 --> 00:08:59,380
Heads up.

133
00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:00,600
Hi.

134
00:09:01,220 --> 00:09:02,220
Tommy, right?

135
00:09:05,060 --> 00:09:06,220
I'm Mrs.

136
00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:07,560
Abbott, your new teacher.

137
00:09:08,020 --> 00:09:09,020
Oh, hi.

138
00:09:09,100 --> 00:09:10,100
Oh, hi.

139
00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:12,960
Hi, Mrs. Abbott. I'm Susan, Tommy's
sister.

140
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:16,360
Oh, another one. Five girls and three
boys.

141
00:09:17,060 --> 00:09:19,260
Well, that should make things easier,
right?

142
00:09:19,500 --> 00:09:21,100
Each one of you could take a subject.

143
00:09:21,420 --> 00:09:23,640
Susan, how about English?

144
00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:24,960
That'd be jolly.

145
00:09:25,150 --> 00:09:27,310
That'd be Joanie, okay. How about
science?

146
00:09:27,510 --> 00:09:29,730
Oh, Mary is so good at science.

147
00:09:30,570 --> 00:09:34,770
I'd be best at coaching Tommy in high
jump. Well, that's really clever.

148
00:09:35,050 --> 00:09:37,410
Okay. How about social studies?

149
00:09:37,990 --> 00:09:38,990
Sure, why not?

150
00:09:39,250 --> 00:09:42,290
Yeah, well, it's going to be tough
remembering all your names.

151
00:09:42,630 --> 00:09:43,630
It's easy.

152
00:09:44,070 --> 00:09:47,950
Dumb Martians just sit nearby eating
tender noodles.

153
00:09:48,370 --> 00:09:49,370
I beg your pardon?

154
00:09:50,350 --> 00:09:54,530
David, Mary, Joanie, Susan, Nancy,
Elizabeth, Tommy.

155
00:09:54,970 --> 00:09:56,550
Nicholas. I'm noodles.

156
00:09:58,710 --> 00:09:59,130
I've

157
00:09:59,130 --> 00:10:14,590
never

158
00:10:14,590 --> 00:10:21,310
had this much homework in my whole life.
It's classwork, Tommy. You gotta keep

159
00:10:21,310 --> 00:10:22,690
up. But I've got a broken leg.

160
00:10:22,970 --> 00:10:24,130
You don't study with your leg.

161
00:10:24,850 --> 00:10:26,210
It hurts and it itches.

162
00:10:26,810 --> 00:10:31,150
Look, Tommy, I've seen your records and
they are pretty raunchy, pal. But, of

163
00:10:31,150 --> 00:10:35,030
course, if you want to lose a year, just
lie back and keep griping about your

164
00:10:35,030 --> 00:10:36,030
tough luck.

165
00:10:36,130 --> 00:10:37,450
Yeah, well, maybe I'm just dumb.

166
00:10:37,850 --> 00:10:39,830
No, dumb is for David.

167
00:10:40,410 --> 00:10:42,230
You're supposed to be tender, remember?

168
00:10:44,690 --> 00:10:49,130
Come on, Tommy, get your act together. I
mean, with all the help you've got

169
00:10:49,130 --> 00:10:50,610
around here, you should be doing a lot
better.

170
00:10:51,050 --> 00:10:52,050
Oh.

171
00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:56,340
Hello, Mrs. Alice. I'm Tom Bradford,
Tommy's father. How do you do? How do

172
00:10:56,340 --> 00:11:00,940
do? Well, first days are always a little
rough, but, uh... Hey, incidentally, we

173
00:11:00,940 --> 00:11:04,820
need someone to coach Tommy in playing
geometry, so maybe you could, uh... Oh,

174
00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:05,840
sure.

175
00:11:06,420 --> 00:11:08,620
Geometry was never exactly my best
subject.

176
00:11:08,900 --> 00:11:10,000
Well, give it a shot, okay?

177
00:11:11,100 --> 00:11:12,180
So long, Tommy.

178
00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:16,240
Bye, Mr. Bradford. So long.

179
00:11:22,090 --> 00:11:24,070
Well, how did it go, son?

180
00:11:24,830 --> 00:11:25,830
All right, I guess.

181
00:11:26,050 --> 00:11:27,050
Is she a good teacher?

182
00:11:27,730 --> 00:11:28,730
She's gnarly.

183
00:11:29,070 --> 00:11:30,070
She's gnarly?

184
00:11:32,090 --> 00:11:33,170
Is that good or bad?

185
00:11:38,130 --> 00:11:44,790
Listen, I'll deny this if you quote me,
but I really like the way you've taken

186
00:11:44,790 --> 00:11:45,790
charge of Mary.

187
00:11:46,670 --> 00:11:47,670
Have I done that?

188
00:11:47,830 --> 00:11:51,490
Oh. Anybody who could get Mary to give
up pre -law school for pre -med school,

189
00:11:51,610 --> 00:11:52,890
believe me, is taking charge.

190
00:11:54,390 --> 00:11:57,570
Well, I just think Mary would rather
ride in an ambulance than chase one.

191
00:11:58,070 --> 00:12:02,250
Don't get me wrong. I want what's best
for Mary. It's just that, well, I was

192
00:12:02,250 --> 00:12:07,410
wondering if either of you had given any
thought to what happens after school.

193
00:12:08,970 --> 00:12:09,970
Sure.

194
00:12:10,290 --> 00:12:12,950
I'm going to be an analyst, and Mary's
going to be a pediatrician.

195
00:12:13,390 --> 00:12:15,030
We think that'll make a pretty good
team.

196
00:12:15,250 --> 00:12:16,730
Two doctors in one family.

197
00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:19,000
And neither one of them can play ping
pong.

198
00:12:19,380 --> 00:12:21,540
I think I detect a challenge there.

199
00:12:22,300 --> 00:12:23,300
That's right.

200
00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:41,240
Can I stay in here? Mrs. Abbott is
giving Tommy a test.

201
00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:44,300
Nicholas, I've told you not to interrupt
me when I'm studying.

202
00:12:44,970 --> 00:12:46,950
I thought you stopped studying and
started kissing.

203
00:12:49,290 --> 00:12:49,890
Nicholas...

204
00:12:49,890 --> 00:12:58,630
Why

205
00:12:58,630 --> 00:13:00,850
don't we go to your place?

206
00:13:01,570 --> 00:13:04,030
Can't. My roommate's got the shade down.

207
00:13:04,910 --> 00:13:06,330
You ought to get a new roommate.

208
00:13:16,750 --> 00:13:18,750
Hey, try not to break all the dishes at
once, okay?

209
00:13:19,190 --> 00:13:20,830
Well, if they break, blame Mary.

210
00:13:21,070 --> 00:13:23,610
What? Oh, yeah, that makes a lot of
sense.

211
00:13:24,070 --> 00:13:25,390
Dad, it's just not fair.

212
00:13:25,690 --> 00:13:30,010
I mean, tonight's her night for KP, and
she's upstairs goofing around with Doug.

213
00:13:30,150 --> 00:13:33,930
Oh, come on, honey. Mary is pinch -hit
for us plenty of times. I mean, you've

214
00:13:33,930 --> 00:13:38,630
got to realize that she and Doug are,
uh... Well, they're, uh... I wouldn't be

215
00:13:38,630 --> 00:13:40,850
surprised if they announced their
engagement pretty soon.

216
00:13:41,110 --> 00:13:42,110
No kidding?

217
00:13:42,230 --> 00:13:43,390
An engagement, huh?

218
00:13:43,970 --> 00:13:45,830
You know, uh, that'll mean a shower.

219
00:13:46,140 --> 00:13:47,600
That's right, kiddo. Shower.

220
00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:57,800
Parting is such sweet sorrow.

221
00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:00,080
You know, it's weird.

222
00:14:00,620 --> 00:14:05,880
We can be together all day, and one of
us has to leave, and all I can think

223
00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:06,960
about is being with him again.

224
00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:08,280
I've known the feeling.

225
00:14:08,740 --> 00:14:09,880
I know you have, Dad.

226
00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:13,140
That's why I know I can tell you
something very important.

227
00:14:13,820 --> 00:14:14,920
Please try and understand.

228
00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:18,840
Oh, you don't have to try to sell me on
Doug. I've liked him right from the very

229
00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:19,840
beginning.

230
00:14:20,020 --> 00:14:23,860
Are you leading up to the announcement
that my oldest daughter is leaving the

231
00:14:23,860 --> 00:14:24,860
nest?

232
00:14:25,020 --> 00:14:26,400
We're looking for an apartment tomorrow.

233
00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:31,040
Oh, well, do you think you should put
the apartment ahead of the vows? I mean,

234
00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:33,640
shouldn't you discuss wedding plans
first?

235
00:14:34,220 --> 00:14:35,420
We're not getting married, Daddy.

236
00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:37,120
We're going to live together.

237
00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:48,020
Do you remember Madge Kleberg and Phil
Myers?

238
00:14:48,420 --> 00:14:50,340
They were the Doug and Mary of our
generation.

239
00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:54,760
Okay, so it's nothing new. They lived
together for 15 years.

240
00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:56,720
I don't think they ever had an argument.

241
00:14:57,480 --> 00:14:58,480
Until they got married.

242
00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:00,240
That's what broke it up.

243
00:15:01,220 --> 00:15:05,400
If they had been married, if it had been
the real thing... They might have split

244
00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:06,400
after one year.

245
00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:07,520
Look, Tom.

246
00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:11,560
Doug and Mary are not quitting school
and joining a commune.

247
00:15:12,220 --> 00:15:15,220
We're not talking about what they're not
doing. We're talking about what they're

248
00:15:15,220 --> 00:15:19,340
doing. If it were my daughter, I would
give her my blessing.

249
00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:24,100
Oh, I see. That's interesting. There's
one little thing, though. It's not your

250
00:15:24,100 --> 00:15:25,260
daughter. It's my daughter.

251
00:15:26,740 --> 00:15:27,740
Picky, picky.

252
00:15:52,450 --> 00:15:53,450
Uh, Johnny.

253
00:15:53,890 --> 00:15:54,890
No, Mary.

254
00:15:55,070 --> 00:15:56,049
This is Doug.

255
00:15:56,050 --> 00:16:00,790
Hi. Mrs. Abbott, I could only give Tommy
about ten minutes on political science.

256
00:16:01,030 --> 00:16:03,970
I know he needs more, but we're busy
looking for an apartment.

257
00:16:04,230 --> 00:16:05,230
Oh, yeah?

258
00:16:05,310 --> 00:16:08,470
Yeah, it's not easy finding a cheap
vacancy near the university.

259
00:16:08,870 --> 00:16:11,110
Oh, I live near there, 1412 Compton.

260
00:16:11,550 --> 00:16:13,630
Hey, you know, I think there's a vacancy
in my building.

261
00:16:14,010 --> 00:16:15,010
Oh, yeah?

262
00:16:15,550 --> 00:16:16,690
Maybe we should go check it out.

263
00:16:17,100 --> 00:16:18,240
14 -12 Compton? Right.

264
00:16:18,540 --> 00:16:20,100
Thanks. The door's open. Okay, thanks.

265
00:16:20,340 --> 00:16:21,820
Hey, good luck. Thank you. Bye.

266
00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:26,840
I can't understand it.

267
00:16:28,180 --> 00:16:32,820
Tommy's a really bright kid, and I
always thought I was a pretty good

268
00:16:33,620 --> 00:16:35,260
But it's almost as if he doesn't care.

269
00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:37,160
Well,

270
00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:41,940
I'll just have to give him another one
of my let's win this one for the Gipper

271
00:16:41,940 --> 00:16:42,940
talks.

272
00:16:45,290 --> 00:16:49,930
If the bottom line is that he has to
repeat another year, well, then that's

273
00:16:49,930 --> 00:16:51,070
what he's gonna have to do.

274
00:16:51,290 --> 00:16:52,310
No, that's no good.

275
00:16:52,510 --> 00:16:54,410
You don't want him to start a pattern
like that.

276
00:16:55,270 --> 00:16:59,890
Look, um, I think that there's something
more involved here than just the broken

277
00:16:59,890 --> 00:17:03,290
leg. His records show that he hasn't
done well all semester.

278
00:17:05,349 --> 00:17:06,349
I know.

279
00:17:07,430 --> 00:17:12,829
You see, for the first time in Tommy's
life, his mother isn't around here to

280
00:17:12,829 --> 00:17:13,910
help him when he's down.

281
00:17:15,150 --> 00:17:16,150
The first time?

282
00:17:17,890 --> 00:17:21,390
Gee, I, um... I never thought to ask.

283
00:17:21,990 --> 00:17:25,270
I just assumed that Mrs. Bradford had
died some time ago.

284
00:17:26,230 --> 00:17:27,230
No.

285
00:17:27,750 --> 00:17:29,290
It wasn't long ago.

286
00:17:30,530 --> 00:17:36,130
We were all hit very hard, but... I
think maybe Tommy was hit the hardest.

287
00:17:37,610 --> 00:17:39,170
He and Joan were very close.

288
00:17:40,790 --> 00:17:41,790
I see.

289
00:17:43,530 --> 00:17:50,530
His mother dies, and it's his first year
in high school, and he breaks his leg.

290
00:17:51,890 --> 00:17:53,330
No wonder he's in a slump.

291
00:17:54,450 --> 00:17:55,870
It all adds up, doesn't it?

292
00:17:56,970 --> 00:17:58,850
Look, you're in the teaching business.

293
00:17:59,130 --> 00:18:01,090
What can we do to turn Tommy around?

294
00:18:01,870 --> 00:18:07,630
Well, from my end, I guess I just keep
on truckin', only now with a little more

295
00:18:07,630 --> 00:18:08,630
patience and understanding.

296
00:18:09,070 --> 00:18:10,310
And what about my end?

297
00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:13,600
Well, you're in the father business. I
guess you'll just have to work some of

298
00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:14,600
your own kind of magic.

299
00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:15,720
Oh, gosh.

300
00:18:16,740 --> 00:18:21,260
I'll tell you, lately my magic hasn't
been so hot.

301
00:18:40,990 --> 00:18:41,809
Hold on.

302
00:18:41,810 --> 00:18:44,690
We have to make a list of the furniture
we're going to need.

303
00:18:45,270 --> 00:18:46,330
A bed.

304
00:18:47,290 --> 00:18:50,030
A bed. Come on, would you be serious? We
have to plan a budget.

305
00:18:50,770 --> 00:18:52,970
Who needs a budget? I can more than
cover everything.

306
00:18:53,450 --> 00:18:54,249
Uh -uh.

307
00:18:54,250 --> 00:18:56,410
We split everything down the middle.

308
00:18:56,890 --> 00:18:59,950
I've got some money saved, and I've also
got a part -time lab job at school.

309
00:19:01,650 --> 00:19:02,670
What's the difference? Who pays?

310
00:19:03,250 --> 00:19:05,750
The difference is between being a
partner and a mistress.

311
00:19:06,910 --> 00:19:08,690
And if I'm going to be a mistress...

312
00:19:09,580 --> 00:19:12,500
Then I want a yacht membership in the
country club.

313
00:19:12,900 --> 00:19:13,900
For a coat.

314
00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:15,080
Oh, yes.

315
00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:16,700
I think I get the point.

316
00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:20,840
Partner.

317
00:19:32,700 --> 00:19:33,700
Joanie.

318
00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:35,640
You startled me.

319
00:19:35,900 --> 00:19:37,700
I wasn't expecting to find you here.

320
00:19:38,740 --> 00:19:39,740
Why are you here?

321
00:19:40,420 --> 00:19:46,220
Uh, no reason, no reason. I just, uh...
I just, uh...

322
00:19:46,220 --> 00:19:51,880
Well, you know, actually, I was
wondering how Mary put up with this dump

323
00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:52,880
long, you know?

324
00:19:53,020 --> 00:19:54,180
I mean, it's awful.

325
00:19:56,060 --> 00:19:57,060
Awful?

326
00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:01,900
You know, awful's not the word for this
room, and this room is downright

327
00:20:01,900 --> 00:20:04,340
depressing. It's no wonder Mary's moving
out.

328
00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:05,700
Oh, I know, I know.

329
00:20:06,460 --> 00:20:09,360
I mean, I mean... Look, you didn't go
cramped in here and everything.

330
00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:12,180
Look at those curtains.

331
00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:15,400
Very tacky. Really?

332
00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:18,540
Poor exposure to the sun.

333
00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:22,540
And it's a much longer hike to the
bathroom than from our room. You're

334
00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:25,980
And with the stairs right there, all
that foot traffic must get very noisy in

335
00:20:25,980 --> 00:20:26,980
here.

336
00:20:27,340 --> 00:20:31,060
Definitely the low -rent district. Why
would anybody want to stay here?

337
00:20:31,500 --> 00:20:32,500
No.

338
00:20:36,690 --> 00:20:37,690
Awful.

339
00:20:38,250 --> 00:20:39,250
Downright depressing.

340
00:20:49,510 --> 00:20:52,330
Well, at least your music homework is
coming along.

341
00:20:53,770 --> 00:20:54,770
Hiya, Tommy.

342
00:21:00,750 --> 00:21:02,370
Did you get any studying done?

343
00:21:02,950 --> 00:21:05,770
I can't concentrate for more than a
couple minutes at a time.

344
00:21:08,620 --> 00:21:10,180
Have something more important on your
mind?

345
00:21:11,540 --> 00:21:12,600
A few things.

346
00:21:13,940 --> 00:21:15,120
You think about Mom?

347
00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:19,200
Sometimes.

348
00:21:19,940 --> 00:21:20,940
Me too.

349
00:21:22,380 --> 00:21:23,380
A lot.

350
00:21:25,260 --> 00:21:29,580
Sometimes it gets so bad, I... can't get
my work done.

351
00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:37,160
I just get to thinking, and it's like...

352
00:21:37,370 --> 00:21:38,570
What do you say anything?

353
00:21:39,370 --> 00:21:43,250
You know, I found a way to get past
that.

354
00:21:44,610 --> 00:21:51,530
I reach back into my memories and I pick
out one

355
00:21:51,530 --> 00:21:54,590
of a million great moments that I had
with Mom.

356
00:21:56,190 --> 00:22:01,050
And I just think about that until I
start feeling better.

357
00:22:04,570 --> 00:22:05,890
Maybe it'll work for you.

358
00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:18,520
Come in, come in.

359
00:22:20,820 --> 00:22:23,940
Nicholas, what are you doing up? They
woke me up arguing.

360
00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:27,860
About Mary's room. Yeah, Dad. Now, who
gets it? I'm the oldest. I'm the

361
00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:28,880
I'm the smallest.

362
00:22:28,940 --> 00:22:31,900
I'm the sorriest. Mary's room is staying
as is.

363
00:22:32,420 --> 00:22:33,420
But, Dad.

364
00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:35,240
I don't want to discuss it anymore.

365
00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:37,040
Go to bed, Nicholas.

366
00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:40,320
Dad, if I make enough money, can I build
my own room?

367
00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:41,880
Yeah, sure.

368
00:22:42,580 --> 00:22:43,519
Thanks, Dad.

369
00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:44,519
Good night.

370
00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:47,660
Good grief, Daddy, you're not even
facing reality. Mary's not coming back,

371
00:22:47,660 --> 00:22:49,300
know. It's like burying your head in the
sand.

372
00:22:49,740 --> 00:22:51,720
I just want to bury my head in this
book.

373
00:22:52,660 --> 00:22:53,660
Good night.

374
00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:54,680
Good night, Daddy.

375
00:23:02,980 --> 00:23:03,980
Hi,

376
00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:07,020
Dad. Oh, hi. Where are you going? To
Mary's.

377
00:23:07,220 --> 00:23:10,500
Oh. I think you're spending too much
time at Mary's place.

378
00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:14,720
I bet if they were married, you wouldn't
care how much time I spent over there.

379
00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:16,760
You're absolutely right, young lady.

380
00:23:17,300 --> 00:23:21,200
While you're admiring Mary's lifestyle,
try to remember that both of you are

381
00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:22,300
products of my lifestyle.

382
00:23:23,540 --> 00:23:24,419
Good morning.

383
00:23:24,420 --> 00:23:27,040
Why can't you admit that Mary has the
right to do... That's enough, Elizabeth.

384
00:23:27,220 --> 00:23:29,200
Let's not play last word. Good morning,
Mrs. Abbott.

385
00:23:29,700 --> 00:23:32,520
Hi. Even Mrs. Abbott approves of what
Mary's doing.

386
00:23:32,860 --> 00:23:33,940
What do I approve of?

387
00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:35,720
What are you talking about?

388
00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:38,540
She found him their apartment in her own
building.

389
00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:40,520
Is that true?

390
00:23:40,800 --> 00:23:44,140
Well, I did mention that there was a
vacancy in my building, yeah. I mean...

391
00:23:44,140 --> 00:23:45,400
Boy, thanks a lot, Mrs. Abbott.

392
00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:47,060
Well, what was wrong with that?

393
00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:50,420
Look, you're in the teaching business.
I'm in the parent business.

394
00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:52,800
Please, try to remember that.

395
00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:10,200
Coming to bed?

396
00:24:11,959 --> 00:24:12,959
Organic chemistry.

397
00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:16,800
Well, uh, want to try a little practical
lab work?

398
00:24:17,660 --> 00:24:20,200
Listen, gorgeous, I've got to get at
least a B on this exam.

399
00:24:21,380 --> 00:24:23,360
Well, okay, if you need me.

400
00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:24,560
Just will.

401
00:24:25,940 --> 00:24:26,940
Okay.

402
00:24:30,020 --> 00:24:31,180
Hey, what happened to that report?

403
00:24:32,020 --> 00:24:33,020
What report?

404
00:24:33,100 --> 00:24:34,900
The one you were typing for me. It's due
tomorrow.

405
00:24:36,380 --> 00:24:37,500
Doug, I forgot.

406
00:24:38,890 --> 00:24:41,270
I'll do it now, okay? What about organic
chemistry?

407
00:24:41,550 --> 00:24:42,550
Later.

408
00:24:42,710 --> 00:24:45,510
I'm sorry, Mary. Don't be sorry. It's my
fault.

409
00:24:47,550 --> 00:24:51,010
Listen, why don't you get away from me
before I start whistling, okay?

410
00:24:51,750 --> 00:24:52,750
Okay.

411
00:25:01,550 --> 00:25:03,950
Okey -dokey, Johnny, the kid is set. All
right.

412
00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:07,540
I don't think he's going to make enough
to build his new room, but at least

413
00:25:07,540 --> 00:25:08,560
we've cleaned our closets up.

414
00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:10,760
Really. Hey, hey, hey.

415
00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:15,020
Are those your Sunday clothes? Yeah, you
never wore Sunday clothes, kid, huh?

416
00:25:15,260 --> 00:25:18,720
I know, but I think people rather do
business for the guy in the tie.

417
00:25:19,980 --> 00:25:20,980
What?

418
00:25:21,620 --> 00:25:23,280
Well, good luck there, business man.

419
00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:25,560
Catch you later. Yeah, make a lot of
money, huh?

420
00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:27,400
Okay?

421
00:25:36,330 --> 00:25:39,150
Hello, Mrs. Abbott. Mr. Bradford.
Listen, I owe you an apology.

422
00:25:39,650 --> 00:25:43,650
What happened is I was upset with
Elizabeth and you happened to cross our

423
00:25:43,650 --> 00:25:44,429
of fire.

424
00:25:44,430 --> 00:25:48,130
You see, in this family, we shoot from
the hip and then we say we're sorry.

425
00:25:48,870 --> 00:25:50,290
I'm beginning to get that impression.

426
00:25:51,370 --> 00:25:55,190
So, could we have a truce, Mrs. Abbott?

427
00:25:56,850 --> 00:26:01,550
On one condition. We forget the Mrs.
Abbott, Mr. Bradford bit. See, it makes

428
00:26:01,550 --> 00:26:02,529
uncomfortable.

429
00:26:02,530 --> 00:26:04,470
Oh, me too.

430
00:26:05,190 --> 00:26:06,190
Tom.

431
00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:11,140
Abby. Oh, and just for the record, see,
I mentioned the vacant apartment because

432
00:26:11,140 --> 00:26:12,840
I thought Doug and Mary were going to be
married.

433
00:26:13,360 --> 00:26:14,319
You did?

434
00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:15,239
I did.

435
00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:16,240
I got to go.

436
00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:23,800
Oh, and by the way, I understand Mary's
point of view, but I agree with you, so

437
00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:24,800
hang in there.

438
00:26:37,740 --> 00:26:38,900
It was here yesterday.

439
00:26:45,120 --> 00:26:46,700
So was his cheese danish.

440
00:26:48,100 --> 00:26:49,980
Maybe it got hungry and ate the report.

441
00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:52,080
Very funny.

442
00:26:55,580 --> 00:26:56,720
Mr. Bradford's office.

443
00:26:58,040 --> 00:26:59,040
Hi, Mary.

444
00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:01,420
Yeah. Oh, yeah, hold on just one second.

445
00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:07,560
Hello, Mary. How are you?

446
00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:11,620
Friday night for dinner?

447
00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:15,960
Well, I, uh, let me check my calendar.

448
00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:21,380
Friday night, I have an interview at 7 o
'clock, and I'm not sure what time I'll

449
00:27:21,380 --> 00:27:22,380
be through.

450
00:27:22,980 --> 00:27:23,980
Next week?

451
00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:26,820
Gee, next week looks pretty heavy, Mary.

452
00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:31,300
Well, I'll, I'll, I'll call you, all
right?

453
00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:32,640
Thank you.

454
00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:34,480
Goodbye.

455
00:27:41,050 --> 00:27:42,570
Just don't say anything, all right?

456
00:27:43,330 --> 00:27:44,790
I wasn't going to say anything at all.

457
00:27:45,210 --> 00:27:48,370
Good, good. And before you don't say
anything, would you get me a cup of

458
00:27:48,430 --> 00:27:49,429
please?

459
00:27:49,430 --> 00:27:50,430
Certainly.

460
00:28:18,030 --> 00:28:21,350
Hi, Mrs. Abbott. You like fire drinks?
Hiya, Nicholas. I never could resist

461
00:28:21,350 --> 00:28:24,050
them. Hey, that's a pretty snappy suit
you're wearing.

462
00:28:24,310 --> 00:28:25,269
Want to buy it?

463
00:28:25,270 --> 00:28:29,490
Well, I think it's a little too small
for me.

464
00:28:30,490 --> 00:28:31,570
Hey, how much is this?

465
00:28:32,850 --> 00:28:33,850
$1 .50.

466
00:28:33,950 --> 00:28:34,950
$1 .50.

467
00:28:35,790 --> 00:28:37,470
Well, if you don't want it, I'll buy it.

468
00:28:38,450 --> 00:28:39,450
Okay.

469
00:28:40,930 --> 00:28:41,930
Wait a minute.

470
00:28:43,770 --> 00:28:46,470
Nicholas, where did you get this blouse?

471
00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:49,500
From Jodi. She says she doesn't wear it
anymore.

472
00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:51,040
No wonder.

473
00:28:51,340 --> 00:28:52,340
It's mine.

474
00:28:52,660 --> 00:28:53,800
How about a dollar?

475
00:28:54,580 --> 00:28:57,320
Nicola, you're selling stolen
merchandise.

476
00:28:58,040 --> 00:28:59,200
And I'll throw in a tie.

477
00:29:25,420 --> 00:29:27,140
Tell me, do you always sit in the dark?

478
00:29:28,160 --> 00:29:29,740
Oh, no.

479
00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:33,420
Well, it saves electricity.

480
00:29:33,980 --> 00:29:37,520
How is Tommy?

481
00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:41,160
Oh, I was just going up to check.

482
00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:43,200
He's all right, I guess.

483
00:29:44,300 --> 00:29:46,580
With the notable exception of geometry.

484
00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:49,320
Tough subject.

485
00:29:54,640 --> 00:30:00,560
Hey, Tom, I don't mean to pry, but,
well,

486
00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:05,200
you look like a man with something more
than a geometry problem.

487
00:30:06,580 --> 00:30:07,580
You're right.

488
00:30:09,380 --> 00:30:11,640
Mary has invited me to dinner twice now.

489
00:30:12,540 --> 00:30:15,360
Both times I came up with weak excuses.

490
00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:17,160
Oh, I see.

491
00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:21,880
You think that by going over there
you'll be giving her your seal of

492
00:30:22,300 --> 00:30:23,300
Is that it?

493
00:30:23,810 --> 00:30:24,810
Well, wouldn't I?

494
00:30:26,310 --> 00:30:31,490
I'm trying so hard to keep the door open
here for her, but it doesn't work.

495
00:30:32,190 --> 00:30:35,570
Well, maybe that's what she's trying to
do for you over there.

496
00:30:37,870 --> 00:30:40,730
Well, I've waited in this far. I might
as well go all the way, right?

497
00:30:41,850 --> 00:30:47,070
Look, Tom, by staying away, you're
probably just reinforcing her

498
00:30:47,070 --> 00:30:48,190
to prove you wrong.

499
00:30:49,190 --> 00:30:50,890
Mary was never sure on determination.

500
00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:56,600
You don't have to approve of her
decision, you know, but you really do

501
00:30:56,600 --> 00:30:57,860
respect her right to make it.

502
00:30:58,740 --> 00:31:03,400
Abby, thanks for waiting in.

503
00:31:05,100 --> 00:31:06,140
I really mean it.

504
00:31:07,500 --> 00:31:08,500
Sure.

505
00:31:09,780 --> 00:31:10,780
See you later.

506
00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:25,880
I asked you to peel them, not perform
radical surgery.

507
00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:28,760
Sorry.

508
00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:32,000
Look, why don't you go do your homework,
okay?

509
00:31:33,420 --> 00:31:34,460
We're partners, remember?

510
00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:38,020
I mean, first we'll do the housework,
and then we do the homework.

511
00:31:38,220 --> 00:31:40,420
I'll tell you what, why don't I do the
laundry? No, no, no.

512
00:31:40,940 --> 00:31:44,340
Last time you did the laundry, you
shrank my blouse and bleached out the

513
00:31:44,340 --> 00:31:45,279
skirt.

514
00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:46,280
I did that?

515
00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:49,220
I'm really sorry, Mary.

516
00:31:50,140 --> 00:31:52,540
Maybe subconsciously, I just don't like
doing the laundry.

517
00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:54,420
I hate it too, Doug.

518
00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:56,200
Consciously.

519
00:31:56,560 --> 00:31:57,560
But I do it right.

520
00:32:00,700 --> 00:32:01,700
That's hostile.

521
00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:05,220
Why don't you go lay down and analyze
yourself for a while and let me finish

522
00:32:05,220 --> 00:32:06,220
making dinner, okay?

523
00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:07,960
Now that's really hostile.

524
00:32:08,460 --> 00:32:10,300
Well, hostility begins at home.

525
00:32:13,900 --> 00:32:16,800
Mary, do you realize what you're doing?

526
00:32:17,180 --> 00:32:19,700
Yes, I'm peeling the potatoes. That's
what I'm doing. No.

527
00:32:20,179 --> 00:32:23,420
You're attacking me because your father
keeps refusing to come over here.

528
00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:27,040
Why don't you just give him a chance,
Doug? He's been busy, that's all.

529
00:32:27,300 --> 00:32:29,240
Oh, come on, Mary, don't be naive.

530
00:32:29,600 --> 00:32:33,500
I mean, he's playing some sort of game,
doing some kind of head trip. He figures

531
00:32:33,500 --> 00:32:36,000
that if he stays away, you'll just come
running home to Daddy.

532
00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:37,760
You know something?

533
00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:41,940
I am sick and tired of your head trips,
Doug. Everything has to be some kind of

534
00:32:41,940 --> 00:32:43,340
Freudian truism to you.

535
00:32:43,620 --> 00:32:45,440
Can't you take anything at face value?

536
00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:54,760
Why is Nicholas selling your clothes?

537
00:32:55,080 --> 00:32:56,820
Oh, Greg, hi. What are you doing here?

538
00:32:57,600 --> 00:33:00,240
Look, if things are that tough, you
should come to me.

539
00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:04,000
Listen, what is this about Nicholas?
Make it quick, though. I'm in a hurry. I

540
00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:06,300
have to get this peace offering ready
for Mary and Doug.

541
00:33:06,940 --> 00:33:10,440
Tom, Nicholas just tried to sell me your
duck hunting shirt.

542
00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:15,820
Nicholas tried to sell you my duck
hunting shirt?

543
00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:20,560
I'd buy it, of course. It's nothing
personal, but I assumed if you've got

544
00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:23,420
kid out selling family clothes... Things
might be a little tight.

545
00:33:23,940 --> 00:33:25,380
My duck hunting shirt!

546
00:33:26,300 --> 00:33:27,300
Relax, Tom.

547
00:33:27,900 --> 00:33:29,400
He's not going to sell it so fast.

548
00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:31,860
He's asking me a dollar for it.

549
00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:38,460
Dad! Hi, Mary.

550
00:33:38,660 --> 00:33:42,440
Hi. Elizabeth told me what time you came
home, so I figured I'd take a chance,

551
00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:43,900
you know? I'm glad you did come in.

552
00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:49,900
These were in the garage, you know,
just...

553
00:33:50,220 --> 00:33:52,760
Nobody was using them, so I thought
maybe you could make use of them.

554
00:33:53,080 --> 00:33:54,860
Dad, this is Mom's old set of dishes.

555
00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:56,820
She hated to replace these.

556
00:33:57,020 --> 00:33:59,720
Some of them may be chipped, but what's
the difference, right? No difference,

557
00:33:59,840 --> 00:34:00,840
thank you.

558
00:34:01,500 --> 00:34:06,180
Listen, how about some herb tea? We're
fresh out of dandelion root. Herb tea,

559
00:34:06,300 --> 00:34:07,300
dandelion root?

560
00:34:07,380 --> 00:34:10,760
Whatever happened to good old -fashioned
coffee? I'd even settle for reheated.

561
00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:12,980
Well, reheated or not, coffee is
expensive.

562
00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:14,880
Oh, yeah, right.

563
00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:18,940
Well, I'll take tea. Oh, listen,
speaking of money, that's another reason

564
00:34:18,940 --> 00:34:22,820
by. You know, ever since you left, I've
been saving all kinds of money on food,

565
00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:26,199
about $20 a week, so I put it aside and
I want you to take it. Really.

566
00:34:26,420 --> 00:34:28,540
Dad, no, thank you, but we're doing
fine.

567
00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:32,420
Oh, all right. Well, we're doing good,
too. Are you? Nicholas.

568
00:34:32,659 --> 00:34:35,080
Oh, he is. You know what he's doing?
He's selling my clothes.

569
00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:37,100
What? Up and down the street. Oh, hi.

570
00:34:37,340 --> 00:34:38,340
Hi.

571
00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:39,400
Hello.

572
00:34:40,179 --> 00:34:41,320
I see you found us.

573
00:34:42,100 --> 00:34:43,780
Yeah, well, they were pretty good
directions.

574
00:34:44,080 --> 00:34:45,520
Doug, look what Dad brought us.

575
00:34:45,780 --> 00:34:46,920
Mom's old set of dishes.

576
00:34:47,820 --> 00:34:48,820
Very nice.

577
00:34:48,860 --> 00:34:51,060
They weren't doing anybody much good in
the garage.

578
00:34:54,820 --> 00:34:55,880
I'll go make some tea.

579
00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:01,800
It's a nice place you have here, Doug.

580
00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:03,440
How many rooms?

581
00:35:05,040 --> 00:35:06,040
You're looking at it.

582
00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:09,480
Oh, and of course, the kitchen and the
bathroom. Well, our first apartment

583
00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:10,480
wasn't much bigger.

584
00:35:10,660 --> 00:35:11,660
This is nice.

585
00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:12,880
Very nice.

586
00:35:13,660 --> 00:35:14,860
But not like home, huh?

587
00:35:16,300 --> 00:35:17,560
Well, I didn't say that.

588
00:35:18,520 --> 00:35:19,520
What are you saying?

589
00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:22,300
I'm saying hello, that's all.

590
00:35:24,100 --> 00:35:25,100
No, you're not.

591
00:35:26,240 --> 00:35:27,880
First, you won't come around here at
all.

592
00:35:28,540 --> 00:35:31,840
And then you come around trying to tell
Mary that old dishes are better than

593
00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:32,840
none at all.

594
00:35:33,260 --> 00:35:35,240
Boy, you have an answer for everything,
don't you?

595
00:35:35,740 --> 00:35:39,180
Look. Why don't you just let us work out
our relationship by ourselves?

596
00:35:39,460 --> 00:35:43,280
By coming around with nostalgic
reminders of what she's left behind,

597
00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:44,280
going to come between us.

598
00:35:44,540 --> 00:35:45,540
Don't you see?

599
00:35:45,740 --> 00:35:49,660
That's what love is all about, giving
someone a little space to grow, having a

600
00:35:49,660 --> 00:35:51,400
little respect for their integrity.

601
00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:54,900
Listen, Doctor, I've been in the
business a little longer than you, so

602
00:35:54,900 --> 00:35:55,980
skip the platitudes.

603
00:35:56,460 --> 00:36:00,820
Nobody really knows what love is, but it
sure as hell isn't a third -year med

604
00:36:00,820 --> 00:36:01,820
school subject.

605
00:36:02,820 --> 00:36:03,820
Maybe it's...

606
00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:08,460
Maybe it's just being scared to death
the first time your kid drives a car.

607
00:36:09,160 --> 00:36:12,980
Or maybe it's going to the same old
first grade play for the eighth time or

608
00:36:12,980 --> 00:36:16,140
holding your kid tight when his dog has
been run over.

609
00:36:18,800 --> 00:36:22,480
Or maybe it's just an old set of chipped
dishes.

610
00:36:25,540 --> 00:36:26,540
What's going on?

611
00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:28,160
I wish I knew.

612
00:36:41,980 --> 00:36:42,980
Afternoon, Tommy.

613
00:36:43,460 --> 00:36:44,460
Oh, hi.

614
00:36:50,680 --> 00:36:53,140
Somebody's got to pick up the middle
linebacker. Hmm?

615
00:36:54,380 --> 00:36:58,520
Unless you leave a back end to block,
the quarterback is going to get creamed.

616
00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:00,520
Do you know about football?

617
00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:01,800
Mm -hmm.

618
00:37:02,420 --> 00:37:07,220
My husband played a season with the
49ers, and I had the choice to either

619
00:37:07,220 --> 00:37:10,000
about the game or not understand
anything he was talking about.

620
00:37:10,360 --> 00:37:11,400
49ers? What position?

621
00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:12,880
Running back.

622
00:37:13,180 --> 00:37:14,180
What's his name?

623
00:37:15,240 --> 00:37:20,560
His name, um... His name was Frank
Abbott.

624
00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:22,400
Was?

625
00:37:23,840 --> 00:37:29,640
Yeah, he, um... He became a Marine pilot
and was killed in action in Vietnam.

626
00:37:30,940 --> 00:37:31,940
I'm sorry.

627
00:37:32,160 --> 00:37:33,160
It's okay.

628
00:37:33,260 --> 00:37:34,440
It's a long time ago.

629
00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:38,100
Don't we show you a play he used to run?

630
00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:39,520
Sure.

631
00:37:42,830 --> 00:37:43,870
Mind if I erase this?

632
00:37:44,490 --> 00:37:45,490
Go ahead.

633
00:37:55,010 --> 00:37:59,690
This is called... A cross buck. Right.
Okay.

634
00:38:00,010 --> 00:38:03,930
Now, the quarterback fakes to the first
back and hands off to the second back.

635
00:38:04,250 --> 00:38:05,730
Now, notice these two lines.

636
00:38:06,690 --> 00:38:07,890
They intersect, right?

637
00:38:08,950 --> 00:38:10,210
Right. Hmm?

638
00:38:10,810 --> 00:38:11,810
Four meaning?

639
00:38:12,300 --> 00:38:13,300
Equal angles.

640
00:38:14,440 --> 00:38:18,480
But only if they run in straight lines.
Yes, well, that's the point, see,

641
00:38:18,540 --> 00:38:24,460
because two intersecting straight lines
always form equal and opposite angles.

642
00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:28,320
That's geometry. Yes, well, you see,
football is applied geometry.

643
00:38:28,660 --> 00:38:29,660
You know any more plays?

644
00:38:29,840 --> 00:38:30,960
Do you know any more theorems?

645
00:38:31,820 --> 00:38:33,140
You know, you're pretty sneaky.

646
00:38:35,580 --> 00:38:36,580
Thank you.

647
00:38:37,420 --> 00:38:40,240
Yeah, I know enough about construction
to build it.

648
00:38:40,870 --> 00:38:41,870
Addition to the house?

649
00:38:42,030 --> 00:38:43,910
I'd rather hire you than a stranger.

650
00:38:44,710 --> 00:38:45,710
I tell you what.

651
00:38:46,110 --> 00:38:48,890
You earn enough for the materials, and I
won't charge you for the labor.

652
00:38:49,630 --> 00:38:51,150
Is $16 enough?

653
00:38:51,590 --> 00:38:52,950
Uh, that won't quite make it.

654
00:38:53,350 --> 00:38:56,910
I had $17, but Dad made me give back his
duck hunting shirt.

655
00:38:58,230 --> 00:38:59,950
You sold Dad's duck hunting shirt?

656
00:39:00,330 --> 00:39:03,550
Yeah, to old man McGuire. He bought it
to polish his car with.

657
00:39:27,370 --> 00:39:28,570
How'd it go at the doctor's, Tommy?

658
00:39:28,930 --> 00:39:31,890
The x -ray showed a perfect man. We're
gonna have a party to celebrate.

659
00:39:33,150 --> 00:39:34,150
That's great.

660
00:39:34,250 --> 00:39:35,250
Hey, listen.

661
00:39:35,270 --> 00:39:39,030
I'll ask Dr. Timmons to lend me his saw,
and we'll take it off right at the

662
00:39:39,030 --> 00:39:40,030
party.

663
00:39:40,190 --> 00:39:43,330
Uh, Dr. Maxwell, are you sure you know
how to take a cast off?

664
00:39:43,650 --> 00:39:44,790
Does a chicken have lip?

665
00:39:46,130 --> 00:39:48,590
Uh... Yeah, sure, I guess.

666
00:39:49,250 --> 00:39:51,910
You weren't supposed to answer that.
That's a rhetorical question.

667
00:39:52,950 --> 00:39:54,990
Oh. I'll see you later, fellas.

668
00:39:55,230 --> 00:39:56,230
Bye. So long.

669
00:39:58,800 --> 00:39:59,800
He did.

670
00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:04,000
Chickens do have lips, don't they?

671
00:40:04,280 --> 00:40:07,180
Hey, do accordion players wear pinky
rings?

672
00:40:09,100 --> 00:40:10,100
Yeah.

673
00:40:14,140 --> 00:40:16,660
31, 32, 33.

674
00:40:17,700 --> 00:40:19,200
$18 .33.

675
00:40:20,340 --> 00:40:22,160
I'm afraid we're still a little short,
Nicholas.

676
00:40:22,460 --> 00:40:23,460
Wait.

677
00:40:25,340 --> 00:40:26,440
Here's another quarter.

678
00:40:29,390 --> 00:40:31,330
I'm sorry, champ, but it's still not
enough.

679
00:40:32,030 --> 00:40:35,350
The best we could do is about two feet
square.

680
00:40:37,710 --> 00:40:42,150
Two feet? I'll have to sleep standing
up. I'll never get a room of my own.

681
00:40:43,250 --> 00:40:44,250
Hey, listen.

682
00:40:44,570 --> 00:40:46,650
Instead of a room, why not a whole
house?

683
00:40:47,090 --> 00:40:51,570
A playhouse. We can use scrap lumber
and... Oh, boy, my own house. I can

684
00:40:51,570 --> 00:40:55,330
in it and eat in it and take all my toys
in it. I'll never have to come home.

685
00:40:55,790 --> 00:40:57,050
Well, that might get a little lonely.

686
00:40:57,470 --> 00:40:59,290
Before I get lonely, you can come and
sleep over.

687
00:41:00,010 --> 00:41:01,010
Oh.

688
00:41:01,150 --> 00:41:02,150
Well, thank you, Nicholas.

689
00:41:02,970 --> 00:41:04,270
Just, uh, I do that.

690
00:41:05,690 --> 00:41:07,650
Okay, you'll pick up all your toys,
right?

691
00:41:08,090 --> 00:41:11,250
Okay, and will you call all the people?
I mean, you know... Yeah, well, Johnny,

692
00:41:11,250 --> 00:41:12,250
but he's coming.

693
00:41:12,270 --> 00:41:13,270
Oh, yeah, okay.

694
00:41:13,890 --> 00:41:15,370
Um, well, there's all of us.

695
00:41:15,610 --> 00:41:19,170
And the Maxwells. And Mrs.

696
00:41:19,610 --> 00:41:20,610
Abbott, right, Dad?

697
00:41:21,610 --> 00:41:24,030
And Tommy, you want Danny and Mark here,
right? Yeah.

698
00:41:24,550 --> 00:41:26,150
All right, and Susan, you bring me a
date?

699
00:41:26,430 --> 00:41:28,530
Well, I don't know, Joanie. Does one
bring a date to a cast party?

700
00:41:28,830 --> 00:41:30,450
Oh, very funny, very funny.

701
00:41:31,590 --> 00:41:34,230
Dad, are you going to invite Mary and
Doug?

702
00:41:34,590 --> 00:41:37,850
Oh, well, I mean, it's Tommy's party. He
can have anybody he wants.

703
00:41:38,170 --> 00:41:42,530
Now, listen, girls, I want to go all out
for this party. The sky is the limit.

704
00:41:43,290 --> 00:41:45,150
Just don't spend over $5.

705
00:41:45,470 --> 00:41:46,470
Dad, wait up!

706
00:42:01,680 --> 00:42:03,160
Mary and Doug aren't here yet.

707
00:42:03,360 --> 00:42:04,360
Do you think they'll come?

708
00:42:04,740 --> 00:42:06,940
Sure. I mean, I know Mary wants to come.

709
00:42:07,260 --> 00:42:09,720
Yeah, but Doug's uptight about Dad and
Mary won't come alone.

710
00:42:10,120 --> 00:42:11,120
I think so.

711
00:42:11,580 --> 00:42:12,538
Tommy's coming!

712
00:42:12,540 --> 00:42:13,419
Tommy's coming!

713
00:42:13,420 --> 00:42:15,400
Oh, come on, everybody. Tommy's here.
Tommy!

714
00:42:45,580 --> 00:42:46,439
Take a joke?

715
00:42:46,440 --> 00:42:47,440
You.

716
00:42:48,780 --> 00:42:50,100
Hi. Hi.

717
00:42:51,860 --> 00:42:53,680
Where is he? I heard him.

718
00:42:54,460 --> 00:42:55,460
Hi, dear.

719
00:42:55,660 --> 00:42:57,300
Hi, dear. How are you doing?

720
00:42:57,600 --> 00:42:58,439
I'm good.

721
00:42:58,440 --> 00:42:59,520
You got your check?

722
00:43:00,220 --> 00:43:01,260
All right.

723
00:43:02,340 --> 00:43:03,340
Good.

724
00:43:06,060 --> 00:43:07,760
Hey. Good to see you again.

725
00:43:08,220 --> 00:43:09,740
Thank you. How are you?

726
00:43:10,140 --> 00:43:11,098
Hi, dear.

727
00:43:11,100 --> 00:43:12,260
Hi. Hi, Doug. Hi.

728
00:43:12,540 --> 00:43:14,300
Good to see you. Good to be here.

729
00:43:14,940 --> 00:43:15,940
Both of you.

730
00:43:16,100 --> 00:43:17,100
Thanks.

731
00:43:17,960 --> 00:43:22,360
You know, I was telling someone the
other day, we Bradfords are all alike.

732
00:43:22,920 --> 00:43:26,220
We shoot from the hip, and then we say
we're sorry.

733
00:43:27,340 --> 00:43:30,680
I think we med students have the same
problem.

734
00:43:31,940 --> 00:43:35,700
Elizabeth, would you please take Doug
into the kitchen and make him a drink?

735
00:43:36,380 --> 00:43:37,380
Yes.

736
00:43:39,040 --> 00:43:40,300
Why don't you help with the ice?

737
00:43:50,480 --> 00:43:52,520
Daddy, Doug and I love each other very
much.

738
00:43:53,480 --> 00:44:00,380
But if our relationship is ever going to
evolve, well, we have

739
00:44:00,380 --> 00:44:01,800
to just let it develop.

740
00:44:02,980 --> 00:44:03,980
I know.

741
00:44:04,820 --> 00:44:07,020
I haven't been any help to you and Doug.

742
00:44:08,240 --> 00:44:12,260
But listen, Mary, I promise to stay
clear of things until you and Doug are

743
00:44:12,260 --> 00:44:13,260
settled in.

744
00:44:13,840 --> 00:44:16,900
Thank you, Daddy, but that's not the
point.

745
00:44:18,220 --> 00:44:22,700
What I'm trying to tell you is that when
you get really close to somebody, it's

746
00:44:22,700 --> 00:44:25,400
almost like a mirror. You see
reflections of yourself.

747
00:44:25,960 --> 00:44:26,960
Exactly.

748
00:44:27,400 --> 00:44:29,820
And I see reflections of your mother and
you.

749
00:44:31,660 --> 00:44:37,020
I remember when Joan and I first started
out, the different routines we had to

750
00:44:37,020 --> 00:44:41,840
get used to, trying to figure out which
family to visit at Thanksgiving, which

751
00:44:41,840 --> 00:44:42,840
one at Christmas.

752
00:44:44,180 --> 00:44:45,180
So silly.

753
00:44:46,060 --> 00:44:49,280
Seems like the smallest things cause the
biggest arguments.

754
00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:56,020
Daddy, you're not letting me finish, and
you're making it very hard for me to

755
00:44:56,020 --> 00:44:57,160
salvage any kind of pride.

756
00:44:59,100 --> 00:45:00,100
Pride?

757
00:45:00,260 --> 00:45:01,640
Why? I don't get it.

758
00:45:05,320 --> 00:45:08,960
Daddy, Doug and I were up most of last
night talking.

759
00:45:10,520 --> 00:45:13,880
And we realized that we might be good
for each other, but we're just not ready

760
00:45:13,880 --> 00:45:14,960
to be that close yet.

761
00:45:16,720 --> 00:45:19,820
We've got to get to know ourselves
before we can share that self with

762
00:45:19,820 --> 00:45:20,820
else.

763
00:45:21,320 --> 00:45:23,120
You understand what I'm trying to tell
you?

764
00:45:24,440 --> 00:45:25,440
Yeah.

765
00:45:25,760 --> 00:45:28,780
And even though you said it for
different reasons, you were still right.

766
00:45:29,760 --> 00:45:31,240
We weren't being fair to ourselves.

767
00:45:32,500 --> 00:45:33,920
Mary, you don't have to tell me.

768
00:45:34,160 --> 00:45:35,160
Daddy, please.

769
00:45:36,100 --> 00:45:39,360
That's why Doug and I have decided to
give up the apartment and try living

770
00:45:39,360 --> 00:45:40,360
for a while.

771
00:45:40,900 --> 00:45:41,900
Oh.

772
00:45:42,280 --> 00:45:44,580
You mean sort of a trial separation?

773
00:45:47,500 --> 00:45:49,780
Why don't we just call the trial
marriage a mistrial?

774
00:45:52,500 --> 00:45:56,460
And would you help me with my bags? I
left them in the car. Mary. Daddy,

775
00:45:56,460 --> 00:45:57,780
don't say anything right now.

776
00:45:58,160 --> 00:46:03,240
No, no, I was just going to volunteer
David to help carry the bags. He's much

777
00:46:03,240 --> 00:46:04,320
younger than I am.

778
00:46:05,000 --> 00:46:08,000
Oh, Daddy, you're not that old, you big
baker.

779
00:46:11,020 --> 00:46:12,020
Welcome home.

780
00:46:12,400 --> 00:46:13,400
Thank you.

781
00:46:16,440 --> 00:46:20,930
Well? Thank you for the football,
please. Sure. Just don't let your

782
00:46:20,930 --> 00:46:21,950
teacher know the secret.

783
00:46:22,230 --> 00:46:26,010
Oh, no way she'd have a fit. She thinks
geometry is some sort of religion.

784
00:46:26,290 --> 00:46:27,410
Yeah, well, you think football is.

785
00:46:29,090 --> 00:46:30,930
Dad, I think Mrs. Abbott's ready to
leave.

786
00:46:31,190 --> 00:46:32,870
Oh, all right. I'll walk her to the car.

787
00:46:33,090 --> 00:46:36,050
You know, Dad, I don't think any of us
would object if you asked her out

788
00:46:36,050 --> 00:46:39,390
sometime. Oh, you wouldn't have. Listen,
when I need your help regarding my

789
00:46:39,390 --> 00:46:40,990
social life, I'll ask for it.

790
00:46:42,200 --> 00:46:43,320
Hey, Tom, I got to go.

791
00:46:43,640 --> 00:46:46,800
But I just want to tell you it was great
getting to know you and the whole

792
00:46:46,800 --> 00:46:49,920
family. You can come around any time,
Mrs. Abbott. Sure.

793
00:46:50,240 --> 00:46:51,580
I'll walk you to the car.

794
00:46:51,820 --> 00:46:52,820
Okay. Bye -bye. Goodbye.

795
00:46:53,080 --> 00:46:54,180
Bye. Bye,

796
00:46:55,220 --> 00:46:56,220
Dad.

797
00:46:56,800 --> 00:46:57,800
Come on.

798
00:46:58,020 --> 00:46:59,020
Let me see.

799
00:47:00,660 --> 00:47:03,080
What's happening? Dad's asking Mrs.
Abbott for a date.

800
00:47:03,800 --> 00:47:04,799
All right.

801
00:47:04,800 --> 00:47:05,800
Come on.

802
00:47:06,560 --> 00:47:10,220
Oh, man, I can't believe it. Look, it's
like the air... reports him from

803
00:47:10,220 --> 00:47:11,220
Casablanca.

804
00:47:13,060 --> 00:47:14,080
How's Bogey doing?

805
00:47:14,340 --> 00:47:15,340
Very badly.

806
00:47:15,960 --> 00:47:17,500
He's looking at you, sweetheart.

807
00:47:20,040 --> 00:47:21,080
Well? Well?

808
00:47:21,340 --> 00:47:22,660
Did you ask her out? About what?

809
00:47:23,000 --> 00:47:26,500
Did you ask her out? I don't see that
that's any of your business. Come on,

810
00:47:26,500 --> 00:47:27,640
Daddy, tell us.

811
00:47:27,840 --> 00:47:30,600
Oh, all right. I asked her out to dinner
tonight, okay?

812
00:47:30,820 --> 00:47:34,860
Not too shabby. Oh, way to go, Daddy.
Hey, the dame's got class. Come.

813
00:47:35,720 --> 00:47:38,940
What restaurant did you ask her out to?
You gonna spring for the big bags?

814
00:47:39,370 --> 00:47:43,210
She already had a date, all right? Well,
didn't you ask her out for another

815
00:47:43,210 --> 00:47:44,990
night? She's just playing hard to get.

816
00:48:41,320 --> 00:48:43,260
You can do a spread on them in the
Sunday supplement.

817
00:48:43,700 --> 00:48:44,700
The perfect...
