All language subtitles for Night Court s02e11 Take My Wife, Please.eng

-Hi. Har.
HARRY: Hi.

Hi. judge-

Harry. what are you doing?

Trying to read that headline
from across the room.

Having a little trouble with my eyes.

"Woman claims man from Jupiter
fathered her child."

I don't see any problem.

Yeah? Wait till she tries
to collect child support.

I mean Harry's eyesight seems okay.

I've been getting headaches
when I read a lot.

That's eyestrain. You really should go to
the doctor and have your eyes checked out.

Really? Most doctors can check them
while they're still in.

-Harry.
-Get it? While they're still in.

[LAUGHS]

Okay. okay. Fine.
You know. just make light of it.

I hate to wolf and run...

...but I've got an appointment
with an eye doctor.

I knew you'd insist.

Sir? Sir? I need you
to sign some papers here right away.

-Hi. Mac.
-Here. here and both places on this one.

-Just fine. thanks. And you?
-Oh. boffo. sir. Now. here's your pen.

Well. that's enough chitchat for one day.
I suppose.

What is this stuff. man?

Oh. it's the usual red tape
in duplicate and triplicate.

-Then it can wait.
-Oh. no way. Jack.

Uh....

I mean. uh. no way. Your Honor.

The last time I signed something
without reading it...

...I ended up buying
three years' worth of carpet cleaning.

-But. sir--
-I have hardwood floors. Mac.

Sir. all it is
is a declaration of financial non-liability...

...and some kind of a form loyalty oath.

-For you?
-No. no. for her.

Oh. I'm sorry. this is Ouon Le Duc.

-Hi.
-Hi.

-And this is Judge Stone.
-The crazy one you told me about?

[LAUGHS]

Uh-- A little language barrier. sir.
You see. Ouon Le is from Vietnam.

-I like your dress.
-Oh. thanks.

It's your basic black. You know.
no problem getting accessories or anything.

Sir. if you don't mind.
we need these papers signed.

The folks in Immigration
are determined to bounce her out...

...unless I'm able to get our paperwork
squared away by midnight.

Midnight? Mac. this is a little sticky.
I mean. I don't even know the woman.

I'll vouch for her. sir. I knew her family
when I was back in Nam.

And you'll vouch
that everything in there is true?

On my mother's grave. sir.

Your mother's still alive. Mac.

Isn't that wonderful. sir?

I don't think I wanna hear any more.

Oh. thank you. Your Honor.
You know. you are a real humanitarian.

Yeah. that's what
the carpet salesman said too.

ICHUCKLESI

Come on. let's go.

Mac. got a second?

-No. no.
-Come on. I just wanna ask you a question.

-Where have you been hiding this one?
-She's Ouon Le Duc. She's from Vietnam.

Vietnam? Hi. I'm Dan Fielding...

...very possibly the next president
of the United States.

Oh. yes. Dan Fielding. the animal painter.

Animal painter?

Mac says you're the best bull artist
in the city.

-He's too kind.
-We gotta run. Bye.

ISIGHSI

-Hey. who's that girl?
-Friend of Mac's. She's cute. huh?

She has a cute name too: Ouon Le Duc.

[LAUGHS]

Where I come from.
"Duc" is a boy's name.

Uh-huh. Yeah.

No. no. The name is Ouon Le Duc.

No. no. No K. just D-U-C. Yes. Right.

I know that the senator
would wanna do all he can to help out...

...since I'm a major contributor
to his campaign.

Yes. this is Mr. Xerox speaking.

Hello.

-Harry not back from the eye doctor. huh?
-Nope.

The crowd is abuzz with anticipation.

That's wheezing.

Of course. I don't blame them.

I still get butterflies
at the opening of every session.

In your stomach?

Sure. Where else would they be?

Showtime.

All rise.

Thanks. Bull.

-Your Honor. everything okay?
-Oh. fine.

Why don't you fellas
come around to the front?

Or that would be another solution.

-What's the matter with your eyes?
-Nothing. Just a routine exam.

Doctor put a few drops in my eyes
to relax the muscles.

It's a common procedure. The effects
should wear off in a couple of hours.

Oh. a couple of hours? Well. great. Maybe
we should call a recess until. say. oh...

...midnight.

Mac. I'm sorry.
but I'm afraid I'm gonna be just fine.

Now. I know you have
a lot on your mind...

...but I really think the best thing
is just to call the first case.

Eugene Sleighbough. attempted burglary.

The people acknowledge...

...that there may be a special circumstance
where Mr. Sleighbough is concerned.

-Special in what way?
-I'm invisible.

Who said that?

See what I mean?

Your Honor. that was my client speaking.

He believes
that he's invisible to other humans.

-Is that so. Mr. Sleighbough?
-You can't see me. can you?

Oh. well. certainly I can.

Oh. Okay.
How many fingers am I holding up?

There better not be just one.

[PHONE RINGS]

-Hello.
-Was that a phone?

Amazing how the other senses take over.
isn't it?

Yeah. Well. I understand. Mm-hm.

-Mac. we are trying to conduct a trial here.
-Oh. I'm sorry. sir. but it's about Ouon Le.

I got some people working on the problem.
and I'm just about out of time.

Mac. I sympathize. Really. I do.

But I'm gonna have to ask you
to silence the bell on that phone.

If I turn off the bell. how am I gonna know
when important calls are coming in?

You'll think of something.

Yes. sir.

-Now. to the matter at hand.
-Hello.

Well. rather than wasting time
reading all this...

...perhaps the prosecutor
could summarize the proceeding.

Hello.

Mac. cease and desist.

-Yes. sir.
HARRY: Mr. Prosecutor.

Yes. Your Honor. it seems as though...

...that Mr. Sleighbough tried
to take advantage of his condition...

...by robbing a fifth-story apartment
in the middle of the afternoon.

Yeah. It's perfect for me.

See. I can slip in and out
completely unnoticed.

Except for the several hundred people
who saw you inching along the ledge.

Ah. That was probably a fluke.

See. they probably used
some kind of heat-sensing device.

Yes. It's called sunlight.

Your Honor. if I may. it seems to me th--

My client is having a little problem
with reality. Don't!

Mr. Sleighbough.
when did you first discover...

-...you had this talent to become invisible?
-Well. it came on sort of gradual.

See. at first. I was just boring.
but then I became inconspicuous.

-Oh.
-I'd be waiting in a doctor's office...

...or a restaurant or a barbershop. you
know. whatever. and. finally. they'd say:

"Oh. I didn't see you there."

That's when it first began to take hold.

-And now?
-I'm fully invisible.

I can be standing on a corner
yelling and waving my arms...

...cabbies. they go right by.
never even notice me.

In New York City. imagine that.

Miss Young.
does your client have any priors?

No. Your Honor. but it's right there
in the arresting officer's report.

Ah. Yes. which I should have here.

-Mac?
-He's not at his desk. Your Honor.

-Well. where is he?
-I'll go out on a limb and say elsewhere.

Someone go out and find him.

A fella can't disappear
whenever he wants to.

You wanna bet?

Other than you. Mr. Sleighbough.

Would the attorneys approach the bench
for a little huddle. please?

Ooh.

If there's no objection. I'm gonna hold
this one over for a psychiatric evaluation.

-Mr. Prosecutor?
-The house of gaga it is. Your Honor.

All right. then.

-You looking for me. sir?
HARRY: Mac?

To your right. 3 o'clock high.

Mac. I think you owe this court
an explanation. Why did you leave?

I had to. sir.

-Well. where did you go? Oh.
-Down the hall.

-To Judge Cramer's office.
-Oh?

I got married.

Oh.

Married?

-Uh-huh.
-To Ouon Le?

-Uh-huh.
-Just now?

Uh-huh.

-Mac. I don't know what to say.
-Well. I do.

What are you. nuts?

So....

So you're married. you old son of a gun.

ICHUCKLESI

-Never thought I'd see the day.
-Yeah. me neither. Ha. ha.

I screwed up bad. Harry.

Kind of overwhelmed by the sentiment.
are you?

But. Harry. I was desperate.

Her paperwork wasn't gonna clear
until Wednesday...

...and she didn't have until Wednesday.

Ah. So you just married her
so she could stay.

Well. of course.
But Ouon Le doesn't know that.

-Whew. I smell a merry little mix-up here.
-It happened so fast...

...she didn't know what the hell was going
on. She thinks I did it because I loved her.

What was she thinking?

-I don't know.
-Where is she now?

Out in the hall.
worshipping the ground I walk on.

-You are gonna straighten this out with her?
-Well. of course.

-Now?
-Oh. sir. on her wedding day?

[SINGING
"FOR HE'S A JOLLY GOOD FELLOW"I

Is something the matter?

What's the matter. man?
A little wedding-night pressure?

-Dan--
-Now. listen. listen.

There's no reason
to go for the gold right away.

Relax. Think bronze.

Oh. Mac.
Mac. this is the happiest day of my life.

They don't get any better. honey.
that's for sure.

-Mac. are you feeling as good as I am?
-Heh.

Well. let me try to explain what I'm feeling.
Ouon Le. You see. um. marriage is like--

Sports metaphor.

--the giant slalom.

Told you.

The wedding day is the starting gate.
and the rest is 90 miles an hour downhill.

You understand?

We're going to Lake Placid
for our honeymoon?

-No. no. that's not exactly what I--
-Oh. boy. snow.

I've never seen snow.

It's wet. and it's dirty.
and little children eat it for fun.

Oh.

-Mac. perhaps if you got to the point.
-What point. Mac?

Ouon Le....

-Ouon Le. we're not going to Lake Placid.
-Oh. that's okay. Mac.

How about Kansas?

Too crowded now. It's the high season.

Ouon Le....

Hey. hey. I got a great idea.
What say we all go out after work...

...have some beer. sandwiches.
and celebrate...

...and then me and you can come back here
and file for divorce?

-Divorce? You've been married 10 minutes.
-Nothing lasts forever.

Mac. why you say this to me now?

Ouon Le. now. you know I only married you
so you could stay in this country.

-You did?
-Sure.

It'll take about a week to file your papers.
and then you'll be safe.

We get a divorce.
and Immigration is none the wiser.

Mac. there is a judge in this room.

Oh. you're blind. sir.
You can't swear that it's me.

BY golly. you're right.

Mac. didn't you tell her
why you were marrying her?

-well--
-There really wasn't much time to tell her.

Well. no--

Time? How much time do you need
to tell somebody why you're marrying them?

-You need--
-It's not that simple.

I mean. there was something else
pretty important at stake.

-Yes. Yes. it--
-Oh. yeah?

Well. what's more important
than a broken heart?

Well. tell her.

You don't love me.

Well. not in the sense
of matrimony-type love. no.

But I loved you enough as a human being
that I wanted to help.

So that is the only reason
you married me?

Because I am a human being?

I had a couple of husbands
who didn't meet that standard.

It was the only way
I could keep you in this country.

If that's all it was.
I'd rather have gone back.

Yoo-hoo.

Gotcha.

These candid shots
are great for weddings.

You violated me.

-I what?
-Hold that pose.

Marriage is something that is sacred
to me and my people.

It is not permitted
to play with someone's heart in this way.

Could you two get a little closer?

-Hey. I didn't play with anybody's heart.
BULL: Perfect.

Bull. this is really not the time to be--

I felt that.

-Look. look. we'll figure something out.
-No.

There is only one way out.

As is the ancient custom
of the one who has been dishonored...

...I will starve myself to death.

I'd better go cancel that cake. then.

-Now. Ouon Le. starving yourself is--
-Leave me alone. you....

You lying heartbreaker. you.

Ouon Le. wait.

Oh. boy. I feel so sorry for her.

Yeah. They both must be
pretty torn up inside.

DAN:
It's not easy. I can tell you that.

I know. I've been there myself.

You were married?

Same sort of thing.

Just briefly.

Dan. I never knew that about you.

Yeah.

It was a gambling cruise to the Bahamas.

Her name was Kimberly...

...something.

I gave the cabin steward 10 bucks
to marry us. and she fell for it.

ICHUCKLESI

But it still hurts.

Ouon Le?

Ouon Le?

You. uh. working up an appetite?

Go away.
I am making peace with myself.

-You wanna do it over dinner?
-No.

There is nothing for you to do
but wait for me to die of starvation.

Oh. Ouon Le. please. look at me.

I thought you understood that
the whole marriage was just a subterfuge.

-What is that?
-Well. it means a kind of an evasion.

No. that.

[IN GHOSTLY VOICE]
Oooh.

Sleighbough. would you get out of here?

How do you know it's Sleighbough?

All the other invisible guys went home.

[NORMAL VOICE]
Oh. really?

Yeah. Now come on.
You're going back with the nice guard...

-...and wait for the ambulance.
-Uh-- You gotta catch me first.

-That was a lucky grab.
MAC: Yeah.

Hey. guards? Guards. here. get him.

SLEIGHBOUGH [IN GHOSTLY VOICE]:
Oooh.

Now. Ouon Le--

Ouon Le. now. wait a minute. This is crazy.
Now. you can't keep running away.

I'm sorry if you thought
the wedding meant more than it did.

You should have told me.

-Well. I thought you understood.
-I thought you understood.

Understood what?

When I was a young girl in Vietnam...

...you were the only man I had
to look up to.

-Well. what were you. 10. 12?
-Something like that.

But even then. I knew you were special.

Oh.
All I did was help your family out a little.

Yes. and you were helpful. And kind.
And fun. And compassionate.

-And I fell in love with you.
-Heh-heh-heh.

You did what?

Of course. when a man like you
comes into a girl's life...

...it's only natural to fall in love.

Isn't it?

HARRY: Mac?
-He's over here.

Mac? Good news.
I talked to a friend at Immigration.

He said you can get your marriage annulled
no problem.

Say. that is great news.

Ouon Le. annulment means
that the marriage never existed...

...you were not dishonored.
and you don't have to starve yourself.

I'm sorry, guys,
it's the best we could do.

This means I have to go back. doesn't it?

Yeah.

Well...

...not necessarily.

Oh. If you. uh....

If you wanna stay married. Heh.

I cannot be married
with someone who does not love me.

You can't go back.
The new regime will peg you as a spy.

They'll haul you in and take your
fingerprints and maybe even your fingers.

He missed romantic by that much.

-Still. you don't want me.
-I never said that.

-But you said--
-I don't know you.

I mean. I know who you are.
but not what you are.

I didn't know you were a vegetarian.

I don't know what your favorite color is.
or if the bottom of your feet are ticklish.

Mine are.

I didn't know what you thought of me
until a couple minutes ago.

But. for whatever it's worth...

...I would like to know you.

You mean. if we stay married.
there's a chance--?

We can go out for dinner. yeah.

-And then?
-Well. who knows?

But knowing someone has to come first.

Until then...

...|ove can't even start to happen.

I will take that chance.

But. now. if it doesn't work out...

...I don't want you to starve yourself
to death. you understand?

Yeah. well.
I kind of exaggerated that part a little.

Starving is not a custom. is it?

When I get dishonored. I eat like a pig.

DAN: Cheers.
GROUP: Cheers.

-Thanks for the reception. Your Honor.
-Oh. it's my pleasure.

So now that you're married.
what are your plans?

Well. we're going to lunch together
next Friday.

Going Dutch.

Well. isn't that detached?

Well. you know what they say:
"Abstinence makes the heart grow fonder."

Ha-ha-ha. That didn't hurt.

That did.

Guys. I got good news.

My eyes are starting to focus...

...and I can see again.

Gotcha.

Yeah. you did.

Oh. my goodness.
I'm late for my job at the vegetable mart.

Oh. and I gotta get
to the bowling tournament.

We're having quarter finals tonight.

Kind of tugs at your heartstrings.
doesn't it?

Well. goodbye. everybody.

BULL: So long.
DAN: Bye.

I'll. uh. see you around.

See you. Mac.

-Thanks.
-Oh. sure.

Come on.
I'll walk you towards the subway.

[PHONE RINGS]

Yeah. Judge Stone.

Oh. yes. I certainly remember you.
Mr. Sleighbough. yes.

Huh? No. I don't think-- What?

Sleighbough. where are you calling from?

Come on. gang. he's on the loose again.

BILLIE:
Psychiatric didn't come to claim him?

Apparently not. He said he finally realized
why we were able to see him before.

-Oh. Why?
-Because...

...he had clothes on.

Ouick impression: Claude Rains standing.

[IN UNISON]
No.
