All language subtitles for 10 - Id Rather Twitch Than Fight

The babysitter said 10:00, Louise,
but she's usually late...

...so why don't we make it 10:30?

Sam, where's my
houndstooth sport coat?

Oh, yeah, sure. Fine, I'll tell him.

-See you later.
-My houndstooth sport coat--

-Louise and I are going shopping.
-Where's my houndstooth--?

Larry's car broke down, so she's gonna
drop him off and then pick me up.

I'm late for work, and I don't
have time to listen...

...to an itinerary of where you're going.

Have you seen
my houndstooth sport coat?

-Which one is that?
-The tweedy one.

Black and orange checks?

-The one you hate?
-Oh, that one.

-You don't wear that anymore.
-I'd wear it today, but I can't find it.

To the office?
Well, don't you think it's a little noisy?

Sam, this may surprise you, but I've
chosen my own clothes for some time.

Why don't you wear the brown one?
It's nicer.

I want to wear the houndstooth,
and I can't find it!

Now, have you seen it or not?

-You're shouting.
-Do you know where it is or not?

I gave it away.

You gave it away?

Well, I was cleaning out your closets
and just gave away...

...everything you don't wear.

You gave it away.

Stop saying, "You gave it away,"
like I sold your mother into slavery.

That coat must have been
10 years old.

Fifteen! That's just the point!
It has tradition and character!

And patches on the sleeves, and
moth holes, and a tear in the pocket.

-Who'd you give it to?
-The thrift shop.

Maybe they still have it.

Darrin, that was a month ago.

Darrin? Don't you think
you ought to put on a coat?

You're not wearing one.

Thank you. Hereafter, however...

...I would appreciate it
if you didn't touch my clothes.

I know-- I know I shouldn't have
lost my temper.

But to give away my sport coat!
How could she do such a thing?

Take it easy, Darrin.
Relax and start from the beginning.

Why don't you have a seat?

-You see she--
-No, no, not there. On the couch.

It's easier to talk
when you're reclining.

Where did you do
your residency, doctor?

Now, look, buddy boy,
let's not try to get funny.

I have much more experience
in these matters than you have.

Firstly, I've been married longer.

And secondly, Louise and I have been
seeing a psychiatrist for months.

Psychiatrist. So that's how
you come by your couch-side manner.

Oh, come on, Darrin, this is serious.
Dr. Kramer's changed our lives.

And he specializes
in exactly your problem.

I don't have any problem. I just don't
have a houndstooth sport coat.

The coat isn't important.

Not important?
That was my favourite coat.

What matters is that it caused
you and Sam to have a fight.

Now, Dr. Kramer's specialty is
teaching married couples how to fight.

According to Dr. Kramer's theory,
there are three kinds of fights...

...the amphigoric, the semi-amphigoric,
and the centripetal.

That's a great system, Larry.
It'd be impossible to fight...

...because nobody knows
what the words mean.

It's really very simple, Darrin.

The amphigoric fight is, well,
silly and irrational...

...and, according to Dr. Kramer,
should be avoided entirely.

The semi-amphigoric...

...is your everyday, garden-variety
fight. Which, on deeper analysis...

...can be revealed to be either
amphigoric proper or centripetal.

That is significant.

If it falls into the first type,
it should be stopped immediately.

But, if it should turn out
to be centripetal...

...it should be fought through
to a conclusion.

What type is my
houndstooth sport coat?

To you, it was just
an ugly old coat, right?

-Right.
-Well, what we have to determine...

...is what did that houndstooth
sport jacket represent to Darrin?

Bad taste?

Too simple.
According to Dr. Kramer...

...the way a husband and wife feels
about how his spouse dresses...

...shows the condition
of the entire relationship.

How does Darrin
like to see you dress?

Oh, bright colours, chic lines.

Good, good, good.

That means he still thinks of
you romantically, as a lover.

Well, I hope so.

If he'd like for you
to wear drab clothes--

You know, dull colours
and those sensible shoes.

--well, that would mean he was
just beginning to take you for granted.

That sounds logical.

But what about
the houndstooth jacket?

Now, why was I wrong
to get rid of it?

Oh, now, that's
the other side of the coin.

To Darrin, that jacket
must have represented...

...his desire to be
attractive and alluring to you.

And by giving it away, you indicated
you were just taking him for granted.

The doctor doesn't help you
solve problems.

He just shows you
how to analyse them.

For example, how does Sam
like you to dress?

Well, conservative clothes,
dark suits, quiet colours.

Exactly, married clothes.

And you come along with a sport coat
with black and orange checks.

Now, if she really liked that coat,
you'd be in real trouble.

Yeah. Why?

Because it would indicate...

...that she's not
completely satisfied with married life.

That she yearns to be gay,
single, and carefree herself.

You see?

Your argument turned out
to be amphigoric after all.

She was just showing you how much
she loved you by giving away that coat.

Larry, I have to admit that Dr. Kramer
seems to really know his stuff.

You know what I'm gonna do?
I'm going to buy a present at lunch...

...to show Sam how wrong I was.

Good idea. You're showing great
psychological insight.

But remember, Darrin,
when you buy Sam that gift...

...a husband's present to his wife
expresses how he feels about her.

I don't know why I let you talk me out
of going back to get Darrin's old coat.

That's the one he loves,
and the one he should have.

Will you forget it?
They'd never still have it...

...and even if they do,
we want something new.

-We do?
-Perhaps something in a Shetland?

They're very good this year.

No, I'm sorry.

Old or new, it has to be houndstooth.

With black and orange checks.

Well, if I may be permitted, madam...

...we haven't carried
houndstooth for many years.

Today's gentleman has grown
a bit more sophisticated.

This is for yesterday's gentleman.

Well, perhaps, if you tried
a costume shop.

Oh, no. The baron usually gets
his clothes tailored at the chateau.

But being so far from home, well....

Come, come, Louise.

Well, I guess I'd better go put
more pennies in the parking meter.

You sure this is it?

Oh, yes. I remember it quite well.

-We dyed it as soon as it came in.
-Why did you dye it?

If you're buying
second-hand clothes...

...you don't want to stand out
in a crowd like a neon light.

All right, I'll take it. How much?

It was your coat to begin with.

But for the repairs
and the dye, $5.00.

-Is that all?
-Believe me...

...it's more than we expected to get.

-Thank you.
-Thank you.

This is ever so chic.
Sophia Loren wears one...

...just like it in her latest picture.

Was she married or single
in the picture?

When she wore it she was single,
but she got married right after.

Let me show it to you in hot pink.
It's a knockout.

Just remember, when you buy
that gift for Sam...

...a husband's present to his wife...

...expresses exactly
what he feels about her.

But be careful. In Sam's mind...

...sensible, conservative clothes
equal happiness and security.

Frilly clothes and exotic colours
equal jealousy...

...and dissatisfaction
with married life.

Remember the houndstooth
sport coat.

You see, in hot pink
it absolutely exudes...

...romance, gaiety, mystery.

Have you got anything that exudes
a little less gaiety and mystery...

...and a little more
security and contentment?

But, sir, you asked to see negligees,
not flannel pyjamas.

Maybe a bathrobe
instead of a negligee.

Something comfortable.

Something like this, perhaps?

Well, would you say
that was a married woman's robe?

Oh, yes. Definitely married.
With children.

Perfect. Wrap it up.

Sam, about this morning,
I wanted you to know that....

Well, I brought you a little present.

Well, isn't that a coincidence?

It just so happens, I got
a little something for you too.

Oh, you shouldn't have done that.
It was my fault.

-Oh, now, just open it.
-Okay.

-Oh, I love to get presents.
-So do I.

My houndstooth sport jacket.

Oh, Darrin! It's...

...lovely.

It was very considerate of you...

...to get this for me
when I know how much you hate it.

Oh, I don't hate it. I love it.

I just thought I hated it.

Now I know, it's just the kind
of thing I want you to wear.

Aren't you gonna try on your robe?

No.

No, I think I'll wait
a couple of decades.

I went to a great deal
of trouble to find a present...

...that would express exactly how
I feel about our marriage.

And you bought me a prison gown!

And what does this express?
I'll tell you what this expresses!

A woman who is disappointed
in married life.

A woman who wishes she was
gay, carefree, and single again!

I'll have you know that I spent...

...almost the whole day
looking for a coat like that.

Then I went back to the thrift shop.
They'd dyed it...

...and I twitched it back
because I knew you wanted it.

You twitched it back!
That's more proof!

-More proof of what?
-That you wish you were single again.

That's ridiculous.

I thought you honestly wished
to give up witchcraft.

I really did. I thought you wanted
to be a normal housewife.

Well, this shows me
how wrong I was.

You really wish that you were a single,
carefree, full-time witch again!

Well, I'd rather be
a witch than a convict.

Rather be a--?

Well, that settles it.
There is nothing more to discuss.

Darrin?

Don't you dare walk out on me!

You see? Every time you have
a problem that you can't handle...

...or you get excited,
you resort to witchcraft.

You know what that means
psychologically.

There's nothing I can do
about it, so just go ahead.

I am only human.

Don't twitch.

Don't twitch!
Don't-- Don't twitch!

-Darrin?
-Please, please don't twitch, please.

-Darrin, wake up.
-Don't, don't, don't! Wait!

It's okay, old buddy.
I'm not twitching.

Oh, hi, Larry.

You been here all night?

Oh, was I wrong.
Was I ever wrong!

Sam and I had one of
the worst fights we ever had.

Wow. You two certainly aren't ready
to handle a centripetal kind of fight.

Darrin, you need expert advice.

Oh, Larry. No, Larry.

As of now, the doctor-patient
relationship...

...between you and me is over.

Well, not me. Dr. Kramer.

Let me call him and arrange
for you and Sam to see him.

She'd never agree.
She won't even talk to me...

...much less a psychiatrist.

I'll tell you what. I'll have him
come over here and pick you up.

Then you can both go over
to your place and see Sam.

A doctor who makes house calls?
He sounds a little old-fashioned to me.

Don't worry, you'll love him.
He's a wizard.

Wizards I don't need.

He bought you this?

Oh, it's just like Duncan.

You get Tabatha ready,
and I'll pack your things.

You certainly aren't gonna stay
any longer in a house....

...with a man who bought that
as a present for his wife.

Mother, I'm not leaving just because
we had a fight, so you can forget it.

Think I ought to call him
and apologise?

Certainly not!
Not even mortal housewives do that.

Louise. Louise Tate.

I'll call her and get
the name of that psychiatrist.

He's the one that started
the whole thing.

Psychiatrist?

Oh, Samantha, you wouldn't!

They're anti-witch!

What's so special about that?
So is everybody.

Yes, but they work at it.

They think we're figments
of people's imagination.

-Mommy.
-Oh, dear. There's Tabatha.

Would you see if she's all right
while I make the phone call?

Yes, hello, darling.

How's Grandmamma's
little witchlet, huh?

I wager you're hungry.

Come, Grandmamma's
going to get you a bottle.

There.
Use your own power, Tabatha.

Mama isn't here.

There! That's a girl!

That's a girl!

Oh, you were hungry.

Oh, a psychiatrist!

My own daughter.

Where did I go wrong?

Well, I always say, if you need
a professional, get the best.

Libido

Superego, id

Do for me just what I bid

Dr. Freud, I presume.

How do you do?

Won't you please
step into my off-- Off--

Madame, these surroundings
are unfamiliar to me.

Can you please tell me where I am,
und how I got here?

For your own peace of mind,
Dr. Freud, don't try to analyse it.

But this is not my office.

And I am not your patient.

It's my daughter.

Little girl.

Madame, you are very wise.

For the first time,
someone has called me in time.

This is my granddaughter.
My daughter is downstairs.

Follow me.

Samantha, you can forget
about that quack.

I have the real McCoy.

Do I have to lie down?
I feel silly.

Well, it is customary, but if you prefer,
you may remain upright.

-Oh, thank you.
-Quit stalling, Samantha.

Tell Dr. Freud your problem.

Madam, if you interfere,
I shall have to ask you to leave.

Now, your daughter will talk
when she is ready.

Well, I'm a witch.

-Go on.
-Don't you think that's strange?

-Do you?
-No. That's because I am one.

-How long have you been a witch?
-Ever since I was born.

I didn't know about it until I was
a year old. Right, Mother?

Nine months.
You were very precocious.

But that's not my problem.

You think you are a witch,
but that is not your problem?

No, it's my husband.

-Is he a witch too?
-No, he's a mortal, like everyone else.

-That's his problem.
-Please.

Well, you see, it all started when
Darrin-- That's my husband.

--got mad because I gave away
his favourite sport jacket.

That one.

-That is your husband's favourite coat?
-Unbelievable, isn't it?

Now, I friend of mine told me
that that jacket...

...represented Darrin's desire
to be attractive and alluring to me...

...and that I shouldn't
have given it away.

Anyone who finds that jacket
attractive and alluring to anyone...

...is showing symptoms
of a severely disorganized mind.

Well, if it doesn't mean that,
what does it represent?

-Bad taste.
-I'll go with that.

Madam, if your daughter wishes to tell
me why she thinks she is a witch...

...then we will have to
go into her dreams...

...her childhood frustrations...

...her relations with her mother.

Mother's a witch too.

Yeah. Well...

That would be significant.

Because it's not
a psychological problem.

Witch or not, you appear
to be a sensible woman.

Now, sensible women don't
fight with their husbands...

...because the husband is partial
to disagreeable sport coats.

That is silly.

In the future, when you fight,
fight about important things.

Then you will not have to
call upon me.

You sure you're a psychiatrist?

You'll receive my bill
in a few days.

He's a psychiatrist.

Darrin!

Where have you been?

Sam, this is Dr. Matthew Kramer.

I thought that he might help us.

-How do you do?
-Mrs. Stephens.

-Is that yours?
-Yes, it is, but--

Why, it's beautiful!
Where did you get it?

I've been looking for a houndstooth
sport jacket like this for years!

You see, it is not necessarily
a psychiatric symptom.

There are many people
with bad taste.

Bad taste?

This is a classic sport jacket, and--
I don't believe I've met you.

-My name is Dr. Sigmund--
-Sigmund! Dr. Sigmund.

Well, Dr. Sigmund, what right do you
have to suggest that I have bad taste?

I do not suggest.
I merely stated a fact.

That is the ugliest
sport coat I've ever seen.

And in addition, doctor,
you broke in on my patient.

Broke in on your--

Mr. Stephens, why didn't you tell me
you had consulted another doctor?

I didn't know.

Is this what you call
professional ethics?

Don't you lecture me
on professional ethics!

I'll have you know that I've been a
practising psychiatrist for many years.

Yes, doctor?
Well, I was a psychiatrist...

...before there were psychiatrists!

I'll bet you were,
phoney accent and all!

This looks like it'll be interesting.

How dare you insult my accent,
you upstart!

-Doctors, please, please!
-Upstart?

Dr. Sigmund, I want
to tell you something.

Guys like you give me a pain...

...with your beards
and your Old World manners.

I think you've all got
father fixations.

-Father fixations?
-Yes!

-You take that back!
-You make me!

Oh, now, doctors,
this is just a silly...

...amphigoric argument.

You're not really gonna fight?

-Hold these.
-There isn't supposed to be violence.

You're supposed to watch out
for the other's vulnerable areas.

I'll watch out for it!
I think this guy's got a glass jaw!

-Sam, do something.
-What can I do?

You might consider
moving the furniture.

-Quick, before they hurt each other.
-You mean it?

I'll father fixation you.

It's guys like you
who give the rest of us a bad name!

-Don't argue with me, honey! Do it!
-All right, all right.

Mother, I'll take the big one.

Don't forget to make him forget.

-Where did he go?
-Sorry, doctor.

Back to the unconscious.

-Sam, I have to apologize.
-Darrin, I really feel so bad.

Oh, if you're going to kiss
and make up, I'm going to leave.

It's nauseating.

-Darrin?
-What?

-I have an idea.
-What?

Let's kiss and make up.

Say, how did he get--?

-Darrin?
-Yeah?

Close your eyes.

-What for?
-Go on, close them.

Okay.

-Closed?
-Can't see a thing.

-All right. Now, stand up.
-With my eyes closed?

-Come on.
-Well, okay.

-Keep them closed, now.
-Yeah.

Put your arms behind you.

Now, other arm.

-Don't peek.
-I'm not.

There.

Okay?

Hey. Hey, this is something else.

Where'd you get it?

I exchanged
the houndstooth jacket for it.

Honey, you couldn't
have exchanged it. You--

Now, why did--?

I exchanged the bathrobe too.

What were you gonna say?

I forgot.
