Yes, Sondra, That's Exactly What I Would Prescribe.

Dr. Newman's Right On The Button.

Yeah, Sure.

Penicillin's Just Fine.

Please Do Me A Favor.

Take It The Whole Nine Days.

Don't Stop Just Because You Feel Good.

That Should Get Rid Of That Old Strep Throat.

Bye-Bye.

That Was Sondra?

Yeah.

Why Is She Taking Penicillin?

She Has Strep Throat.

I Would Have Liked To Have Talked To Her.

She Didn't Ask For You.

She Was Just Talking To Me.

But I'm Her Mother.

Right, Right, You Are.

But You Are Not A Doctor.

You Don't Know Everything.

What Did You Tell Her To Do With The Babies?

She Shouldn't Breathe On Them.

No, Of Course Not.

I Told Her She Could Wear A Mask.

A Mask?!

Bacteria Are Tiny Whatevers That Can Get Through Anything.

Did You Tell Her

To Scrub The Walls Down With Disinfectant?

No, I Didn't Think...

That's What I'm Talking About.

You Told The Child To Use A Mask.

What Will That Do?

You Don't Know Anything About Sick People.

She Needs Her Mother, Not A Doctor.

A Mask Indeed.

I'm Going Over There To Solve This Problem.

I'll Call Francine And Take Her With Me.

She's A Grandmother Too.

A Mask!

Jesse James Wore A Mask.

A Lot Of Good That Did People.

I'm Just Here For A Little While

And Then The Angel Of Mercy Will Come And Get Me.

(Baby Crying)

Just A Minute, Honey, I'm Coming.

It's Okay, Winnie, Don't Be Afraid.

It's Only Mommy Wearing A Mask.

Before We Go In

Let's Remember We've Come To Get Those Babies.

She Shouldn't Be Breathing On Those Babies.

The Last Thing She Needs Is Sick Babies.

Winnie, I'll Be Right Back.

My Baby!

Mom, It's Just Strep Throat.

I'll Be Okay.

Strep Throat Is Serious Business.

You Lie Down.

Who Is Making All This Noise?

It's Winnie.

There, There.

You Heard Me.

Lie Down Right Now.

I Don't Need To Lie Down.

You Need To Lie Down.

I Have A Million Things To Do.

You're Not Doing Anything.

We're Here To See That You Get Better.

I Made You Some Hot Chicken Soup.

I'll Put This Blanket On You.

Hold On There.

I Don't Need A Nap Now.

I'll Fix It So You Don't Have To Move.

Here's Your Telephone

Your Remote Control For Your Television

And Lots Of Magazines.

You Just Stay Down.

Thank You, Mom.

It Has Been Hard Being Sick And Taking Care Of The Babies.

We're Here To Take Care Of Them For You.

I Appreciate That

But I Can't Expect You To Stay Here.

We're Not Staying Here.

That's Right.

We're Taking Winnie And Nelson With Us.

You're Taking The Babies?

You Don't Want Them To Get Sick.

Francine, The Rattles.

Check.

Daddy Said The Masks Would Protect The Babies.

What Does He Know?

When Did He Have A Baby?

The Box Of Diapers And An Extra Blanket.

Check.

Do You Have To Take Them?

I've Never Been Without Them.

I Know Exactly How You Feel.

I Felt The Same Way

When I Gave You To Grandma And Grandpa

When I Had The Flu.

It Was The Only Thing To Do.

Listen To Your Mother.

Don't You Cry, Shlibitz.

We're Going To Have A Good Old Time.

That's Right, Shlobo.

You And Your Sister Are Coming With Us.

Say Good-Bye To Mommy.

Say Good-Bye To Mommy.

Mommy Would Kiss You

But I Don't Want You To Get Sick.

Don't Forget To Eat That Soup.

We'll Call You Later.

Okay.

Next Time You Get Sick

Would You Call Us First?

Okay.

Thank You, Sweetheart.

Bye-Bye.

Bye.

Hi, Hon...

Sondra!

What?

Where Are The Babies?

Where Are The Babies?!

Our Mothers Took Them.

Oh.

Good.

Did They Take Them Out For A Little Air?

No, They Took Them Away.

What Do You Mean?

They're Keeping Them Until I Get Well.

Until You Get Well?!

That Might Be Two Or Three Weeks.

Why Did You Let Them Do That?

You Sat Here While They Took Our Children?

It Was For Their Own Good.

This Way They Won't Get Sick.

They Weren't Going To Get Sick.

We're Wearing Masks.

I'm Sorry.

I Was Really Tired.

It Sounded Like The Right Thing To Do.

I'm Sure It Did

But There Was No Reason For Those Babies To Leave.

They Used Your Sickness As An Excuse To Take Our Babies.

Don't Be Ridiculous.

Look Around.

There's Hardly Anything Left Besides The Baby Football.

Now That You Mention It, They Were Very Persistent.

In Fact

Every Time I Got Up, They Shoved Me Down.

You Should Have Seen Their Faces

When They Got Their Hands On Those Babies.

They Were Cackling.

Our Mothers Stole Our Babies!

I Didn't Say That.

They Lied About How I'd Get The Babies Sick.

They Snatched Them From Their Playpen

And Ran Into The Night.

I Think You're Jumping To Conclusions.

Sit Down.

Your Sickness Might Be Clouding Your Judgment.

I'm Getting Dressed

And You're Driving Me To My Mother's House.

We've Got To Rescue Our Children.

Should You Leave The House?

Elvin, I'm Going.

Are You In Or Out?

I'm In.

Good.

When We Get There, Leave The Motor Running

In Case We Have To Make A Quick Getaway.

And Now It's Time For

The Health News Segment Of Our Program.

All Right.

Is The Game On Yet?

No, But This Will Be Off Soon.

All Right!

Latest Findings From The Council On Nutrition

Indicate That Americans Consume Too Many Fatty Foods.

In The Past

The Focus Has Been On Cholesterol

But New Studies Show That Fat Is Even More Dangerous.

Some Foods That Are High In Saturated Fat

Include Potato Chips, Cheese, Processed Meats And Fried Meats.

The Highest Incidence Of Health Problems

Occur In People Who Consume Large Amounts Of These Foods.

People Who Are Drawn To These Foods

Should Learn To Control Their Eating Habits.

For Some, The Challenge Is Too Great.

We Recommend That These People Seek Professional Counseling

With A Nutritionist.

All Right!

Don't Move!

Where Are They?

Who?

Don't Play Dumb With Me.

You Know Who.

If I Knew Who, I'd Tell You Where.

My Babies, Winnie And Nelson-- Where Are They?

You Don't Know Where Your Own Children Are?

Your Wife-- My Mother-- Along With Elvin's Mother

Took Them Right Out From Under Me

Leaving Me On The Couch Childless.

They Haven't Been Here.

I'm Going To Find My Babies

If I Have To Tear This Place Apart Brick By Brick.

Where's Sondra?

Somewhere Around Here Tearing My House Apart.

Did You Do Something To Her?

I May Be Slightly Responsible For All This.

I Told Sondra...

I Suggested That Our Mothers Took The Babies

Because They Wanted To Spend Time With Them.

I Had No Idea She'd Get This Upset.

I Should Have Known They Wouldn't Be Upstairs.

That's Too Obvious.

I'll Find Them.

When I Do

Someone's Going To Pay.

What Do I Do?

Find The Babies.

Do You Know Where They Are?

Man, All I Know Is My Wife Left Out Of Here Screaming

That I Don't Know Anything About Medicine.

That's All I Know.

I Don't Know Where My Wife Is.

How Can You Not Know Where Your Wife Went?

I Have About As Much Control Over My Wife

As You Have Over Yours.

At A Time Like This

My Life Must Look Pretty Good To Both Of You.

They're Not In The Kitchen, The Basement Or The Garage.

Did You Check Under The Couch?

We're Going To Your Mother's House.

If They're Not There, We'll Try My Grandparents'.

Then We'll Try Your Aunt's.

My Aunt Lives In The Bronx.

I Don't Care.

If We Have To, We'll Drive To Ohio.

We'll Drive To Florida.

We'll Drive Anyplace To Get Those Babies Back.

What Do I Do?

Send Me A Postcard.

Elvin, Move It!

Better Move It, Boy!

You See What A Normal Dietary Plan For An Adult Should Be.

We'd Like To Show You A Photograph

Of A Heart Of A Person

Who Has Spent A Lifetime Consuming Fatty Foods.

Notice The Abnormal Amounts Of Fatty Deposits

On The Inside Of The Heart And The Arteries.

These Deposits Severely Restricted The Flow Of Blood

Through The Heart And The Circulatory System

And Resulted In The Patient's Untimely Death.

Hi, Ladies.

We Were In The Neighborhood

So We Thought We'd Stop By

With Our Friends.

I Got To Take A Picture.

Come Down Here While I Get My Camera.

We Came From The Mall.

A Dozen People Wanted To Pinch Their Cheeks.

I Don't Blame Them.

They're Irresistible.

Look At These Faces.

Look, He Loves You.

You Are Irresistible, Aren't You?

I'm Ready For The Pictures.

Wait! We Got To Do Their Hair.

(Squealing)

Yes, Let's.

This Is A Boy.

You Cannot Put That Ribbon In His Hair.

I'll Spike It.

That's Perfect.

Yeah, Yeah.

Now... Look At That!

Are They Ready For A Fashion Magazine, Or What?

Okay.

Now, Everybody Smile.

Say "Baby Cheese."

Baby Cheese.

You Know Who Will Love These Pictures?

Sondra.

You Know It.

She Is So Lucky

To Have People Like Us In Her Life.

You Should Have Heard The Way Sondra Gave It To Dad.

Sondra Yelled At Dad?

Theo Told Me All About It.

She Wailed On Dad.

Showed Him No Mercy.

Do You Know What This Means?

That When We Grow Up, We Can Yell At Dad Too.

It Means Dad Is Probably Very Hurt By What Happened.

It's Up To Us To Rebuild His Ego.

How Do We Do That?

I Don't Know.

This Has Never Happened Before.

Say Anything To Make Him Feel Better.

Like What?

I Don't Know.

Just Say Something.

Hey, Guys.

Hi, Dad.

Hello, Father.

Hello, Daughter.

Dad, You've Been A Great Influence On My Life.

I Have A Lot Of Respect For You.

Thank You.

As A Father And A Man.

Thank You.

Do You Want Us To Do Anything?

We Recognize You As The Authority Figure.

And You Smell Good Too.

(Chuckling)

How Much?

Pardon Me?

How Much?

How Much Money Do You Guys Want?

We Don't Want Money.

We Just Love You Because You're Our Father.

Since You Asked, I'll Take A Dollar.

Look Who's Here.

The Babies!

What Did You Do To Their Hair?

We Stopped By The Beauty Parlor.

We Have Some Pictures Here.

Really?

Oh, I'm Sure Sondra Will Love To Look At These.

We'll Take Them By The Apartment.

I Don't Think It's Going To Be Necessary.

She Should Be Coming Back Here Pretty Soon.

Sondra Was Here?

Mm-Hmm. She Came Over And Yelled At Dad.

Uh-Huh. She Wailed On His Head.

She Did Not Wail On My Head.

Did You See Her Wail On My Head?

How Can You Say Somebody Wailed On Somebody's Head?

Give Me Back That Dollar I Gave You.

Why Don't You Girls Take The Babies Upstairs

And Change Their Diapers.

Come On.

I'm Telling Sondra

Where The Babies Are When She Gets Here.

Cliff, What Is Going On?

Well, I Was Sitting Here.

My Son And I, We Were Eating.

This Woman Came Into The House With This Mask On

And Said, "Halt! Don't Anybody Move!

Where Are They? Where Are My Daughters?"

She Is Looking For The Two Of You

And She Is Serious.

She Thinks You Two Went To Her House

To Deliberately Take Those Children Away From Her.

That Is Absurd.

Did We Go Over There To Take Those Babies?

Yeah.

In The Car, You Said, "Those Babies Are Coming With Us

No Matter What She Says."

We Did It For Their Own Good.

You Don't Have To Tell Me Anything.

I'm Not The Person Who's Looking For You.

And She Is Looking For Both Of You.

And I'll Tell You Another Thing.

When She Finds You, I'm Going Under A Rock.

It Isn't Going To Be Anything Like That.

I'll Just Apologize.

Coming From One Mother To Another, She'll Understand.

Fine With Me.

Tell Me Anything.

Elvin, Block This Exit.

Hi, Everybody.

Don't Be Nice To Them.

Sondra, I See You're Upset.

We Took The Babies.

For That, I Apologize.

So Do I.

I'm Very Sorry.

We Had The Best Of Intentions

And They Had A Great Time With Us.

See, We Have Pictures.

You Took My Babies To The Beauty Parlor?

Yeah, They Were A Hit.

You Took Them From Me So They Wouldn't Get Germs

Then You Took Them

Where Dozens Of People Breathed On Them!

Sondra.

I Am Talking.

These Are My Children.

I Gave Birth To Them.

Do You Know How Hard It Is

To Give Birth To Two Babies At Once?

If You Try This Again

The Next Time You'll See Them

Will Be At Their College Graduation.

Elvin, Get Upstairs And Get Our Babies.

Keep Me Covered.

Nobody Moves Until I'm Out Of Here.

If Anyone Tries To Follow Us

They're Going To Get It.

Do You Think It's Safe For Us To Move Now?

Do You Feel Lucky?

(Chuckling)

I Just Have To Give You A Little Bit Of Tea Here.

Try And Sooth Your Little Head.

Your Daughter Came Over Here Today

And Ran Over Your Face.

She Did Not Run Over My Face.

Tell Me Anything While I'm Looking At You.

She Stood With A Mask On And Said

"You Are My Mother And I Am Their Mother

And Don't You Go No Farther, Mother."

You Enjoyed That, Didn't You?

Are You Kidding Me?

I Was Tasty Pudding, Man.

I Was Enjoying That.

We Thought We Were Doing The Right Thing.

We Just Got Carried Away.

Why Don't You Stop It?

The Funniest Thing Is The Two Of You--

I Don't Know What You Call Yourselves

Or What Act It Is--

Went Over There And Took The Woman's Children

After Telling Me

"You Don't Know Anything About Medicine.

What Do You Know About Strep Throat And Penicillin?"

Went Over There And Did Something

That Even I, A Doctor...

I Have More Sense Than To Take A Woman's Children Away.

How Did You Come To Know So Much?

I Was About Ten Years Old

And It Was A Little Blue Jay.

A Little Baby Blue Jay.

It Was Flying Around

And Hit A Tree

And Went Down, Boom.

I Picked It Up And Dusted It Off

And Said, "If I Help This Bird

He Will Be My Friend."

Like Your Pet Bird, Charlie?

No, No, No, I Sat On Charlie.

I Was Just Brushing Him And I Looked Up

And This Mother Blue Jay Was Flying At Me

And Her Face Was Like This.

I Don't Know What She Thought I Was Doing.

She Landed On Top Of My Head...

And Started Picking My Hair Out

And Was (Click Click)

Like That--

Digging The Claws In.

Then She Came 'Round To The Front

And Started Picking On My Forehead.

That's What Happened To You Today.

You Got Your Forehead Pecked On.

I Guess So.

What Happened To The Baby Blue Jay?

I Came In, And My Mother Said

"What Is The Matter With Your Forehead?"

You Know How She Talks.

"What Is The Matter With Your Forehead?"

It Had All These Little Holes In It.

She Went Upstairs, Got My Football Helmet

Put It On, Grabbed The Baby Blue Jay.

The Mother Landed On My Mother's Head

Started Pecking On The Helmet.

My Mother Said, "See?"

You Have Proven My Point.

Let The Record Show

You Did Not Know What You Were Doing.

Your Mother Knew.

Are You Saying The Next Time You Go Over To Sondra's

You're Going To Wear A Football Helmet?
