1. How about a beer, chief?
Copy !req
2. How about an ID?
Copy !req
3. An ID?
Copy !req
4. That's very flattering!
Copy !req
5. Wait till I tell the missus.
Copy !req
6. Military ID.
Copy !req
7. First Sergeant Walter Keller,
born 1944.
Copy !req
8. That makes you 38.
Copy !req
9. - Must've fought in Vietnam.
- Yeah.
Copy !req
10. - What was it like?
- It was gross.
Copy !req
11. Yeah, that's what they say.
War is gross.
Copy !req
12. I'm sorry, soldier.
Copy !req
13. This is the thanks we get.
Copy !req
14. Sumner, this is crazy.
Copy !req
15. Diane, we're about to be married.
Copy !req
16. Married! Congratulations!
Let's celebrate with a drink.
Copy !req
17. I think not.
Copy !req
18. I give it six months.
Copy !req
19. Perhaps we won't have children
right away.
Copy !req
20. - Come on. Let's sit here.
- We have a plane to catch.
Copy !req
21. I insist you have my grandmother's
antique gold wedding ring.
Copy !req
22. Didn't you say it's still on your
ex-wife's finger? I don't need it.
Copy !req
23. - You're enough for me.
- True. But symbols are important.
Copy !req
24. Let me call Barbara and see if
she's home. The phone's back here.
Copy !req
25. As long as we're here,
let's celebrate with some champagne.
Copy !req
26. Hello? Sam?
Copy !req
27. Are you Sam?
Copy !req
28. - Yes.
- Yes, he's here.
Copy !req
29. Someone named Vicki.
Copy !req
30. No.
Copy !req
31. No, she knows you're here.
I told her you're here.
Copy !req
32. Well...
Copy !req
33. Now, look...
Copy !req
34. I'm sorry, I was wrong.
He had to step out.
Copy !req
35. Where?
Copy !req
36. Well, I think what happened is he...
Copy !req
37. he had... to go to mime class.
Copy !req
38. Yes, I'll take a message.
Copy !req
39. You're welcome.
Copy !req
40. - Well?
- You're a magnificent pagan beast.
Copy !req
41. Thanks. What's the message?
Copy !req
42. Listen, I didn't like doing that.
Copy !req
43. I'm sorry. If I didn't own
this place, I'd fire me on the spot.
Copy !req
44. For lying for me,
I'll buy you your first drink.
Copy !req
45. I'd like a bottle
of your best champagne.
Copy !req
46. It wasn't that great a lie.
Copy !req
47. - No, we'll pay for it.
- We're on our way to get married.
Copy !req
48. Then this is on me. Congratulations.
Copy !req
49. Barbara was home.
She said I can come over.
Copy !req
50. Well, do you want me to go with you?
Copy !req
51. No, it could get a trifle sticky.
Copy !req
52. Besides, if she saw the dazzling
beauty who's about to succeed her,
Copy !req
53. it would break her heart again.
Copy !req
54. Sumner, I'm not beautiful.
Copy !req
55. Blasphemy.
Copy !req
56. So where's the ceremony gonna be?
Copy !req
57. - Tomorrow, in Barbados.
- Nice.
Copy !req
58. I'm Dr Sumner Sloane, Professor
of World Literature at the U.
Copy !req
59. He has an article in Harper's.
Copy !req
60. Diane's been my teaching assistant
for two years.
Copy !req
61. Today, I was sitting in my office
with Diane.
Copy !req
62. I looked up from my Proust,
she had her nose in her Yeats.
Copy !req
63. I said to myself, "I would be crazy
to let this girl get out of my life."
Copy !req
64. So, right there on the spot,
I said, "Let's get married."
Copy !req
65. What he actually said was,
"Come with me and be my love,
Copy !req
66. and we will
some new pleasures prove."
Copy !req
67. - That's Donne.
- I certainly hope so.
Copy !req
68. No. John Donne, the poet.
Copy !req
69. Well, that's lovely.
Copy !req
70. Listen, I must dash.
I'll be back in ten minutes.
Copy !req
71. - Excuse me, what's your name?
- Sam.
Copy !req
72. Listen, Sam, old man,
I have an errand to run.
Copy !req
73. Diane will stay here. I'd appreciate
it if you would keep an eye on her.
Copy !req
74. For you, Sumner, old man,
I'll keep both my eyes on her.
Copy !req
75. Sumner, am I stupid to let you go see
a woman you were once in love with?
Copy !req
76. Darling,
I'm leaving you alone in a bar.
Copy !req
77. - Which one of us is the stupider?
- Too close to call.
Copy !req
78. In any case, you sit at the bar
and chat with Sam while I'm gone.
Copy !req
79. I'll be back before you know it
with your wedding ring.
Copy !req
80. He's quite a fella, your fiancé.
Copy !req
81. Listen, you don't have to
make conversation with me.
Copy !req
82. I'm not in the habit
of talking with bartenders.
Copy !req
83. I understand. One's trying
to move into my neighbourhood.
Copy !req
84. Call that a football team?
Copy !req
85. - What's wrong, Coach?
- The Patriots did it again.
Copy !req
86. This is the worst draft yet.
Copy !req
87. They got a first-round pick.
Copy !req
88. Did they get a jackrabbit
for the backfield? No.
Copy !req
89. A gunslinger at quarterback? No.
A linebacker they get.
Copy !req
90. I've seen a good linebacker
turn a team around.
Copy !req
91. Yeah, me, too.
Copy !req
92. - Hi.
- Hello.
Copy !req
93. I hope nobody told you
the bus goes by here.
Copy !req
94. She'll be here for a while.
Copy !req
95. Excuse me. I hate to keep asking
for special attention,
Copy !req
96. but could you not discuss
my private life with everyone?
Copy !req
97. - What would you like me to tell him?
- I don't care.
Copy !req
98. - She's a hooker.
- Yeah?
Copy !req
99. - Thank you.
- Don't mention it.
Copy !req
100. - Carla's late again.
- Nuts.
Copy !req
101. OK, I'm late! My kid was throwing up
all over the place.
Copy !req
102. You don't buy that excuse, I quit.
Copy !req
103. I don't work for a man who has
no compassion for my children.
Copy !req
104. And you're not exactly swamped here.
I'm usually punctual.
Copy !req
105. If you don't like it, fine.
This ain't such a great job.
Copy !req
106. I'm gonna change.
Copy !req
107. Think I was too hard on her?
Copy !req
108. - Hiya, Coach.
- Hi, Carla.
Copy !req
109. Patriots finally got
the linebacker they needed.
Copy !req
110. Are you nuts? They're up to
their ears in linebackers!
Copy !req
111. That's true. They do have a lot.
Copy !req
112. I love to see a woman
Copy !req
113. who isn't afraid
to take her luggage out for a drink.
Copy !req
114. She doesn't want to be disturbed.
Copy !req
115. Well, tell Her Nibs I'm sorry.
Copy !req
116. - Afternoon, everybody.
- Norm!
Copy !req
117. - Norm, what do you know?
- Not enough.
Copy !req
118. What do you think
of the Patriots' draft?
Copy !req
119. They need linebackers
like I need antlers.
Copy !req
120. That new linebacker will put 'em
in the Super Bowl.
Copy !req
121. He'll probably do that.
I got an awful headache.
Copy !req
122. Sox lost again today, Sam.
Sure could have used you.
Copy !req
123. Not in the shape I'm in, Norm.
Copy !req
124. You, miss!
Copy !req
125. Wouldn't you love to see Sammy
flinging the horsehide?
Copy !req
126. Flinging what?
Copy !req
127. Don't you know who he is? He was
one of the best pitchers in baseball.
Copy !req
128. Samuel "Mayday" Malone.
Copy !req
129. I coached this kid in double-A ball,
and with the Red Sox.
Copy !req
130. He was one of the best
Little Leaguers ever.
Copy !req
131. - Take it easy, Coach.
- No, I mean it, he was the best.
Copy !req
132. - Sure as the earth is round.
- You don't believe that.
Copy !req
133. I didn't until I saw those pictures
from the space shuttle.
Copy !req
134. Sam once struck out Cash, Kaline and
Freehan with a tying run on second.
Copy !req
135. How long is the wimp convention
in town?
Copy !req
136. Carla, heel.
Copy !req
137. If you were so good,
why aren't you still playing?
Copy !req
138. I developed an elbow problem.
I bent it too much.
Copy !req
139. You were a drunk?
Copy !req
140. Are you kidding?
He was a great drunk.
Copy !req
141. Anything he did, it was great.
Copy !req
142. I was not a great drunk.
I was a good drunk.
Copy !req
143. Are you drunk now?
Copy !req
144. I haven't had a drink in three years.
Copy !req
145. I'm proud you licked it, Sammy.
Must've been hell.
Copy !req
146. - Why do you own a bar?
- I bought it when I was a drunk.
Copy !req
147. I held on to it
for sentimental reasons.
Copy !req
148. You, miss. What you reading?
Copy !req
149. A book?
Copy !req
150. Excuse me. Where is your bathroom?
Copy !req
151. Next to my bedroom.
Copy !req
152. Down the hall.
Copy !req
153. So, what's Goldilocks's story?
Copy !req
154. - Never mind.
- Come on, Sam.
Copy !req
155. - Why can't you tell us?
- Yeah, what's the big deal?
Copy !req
156. Take it easy.
Sam's shy about these things.
Copy !req
157. - I'll fill you in. She's a hooker.
- She's not a hooker.
Copy !req
158. Well, not in the traditional sense.
Copy !req
159. She's not a hooker at all.
Copy !req
160. Finest young lady I ever met.
My head is killing me.
Copy !req
161. Look, she does not want
to be bothered.
Copy !req
162. She's waiting for her fiancé.
Copy !req
163. They're going to the Caribbean
to get married. OK?
Copy !req
164. They missed you.
Copy !req
165. Another beer, Norm?
Copy !req
166. Well, yeah, one more quick one.
Thanks.
Copy !req
167. - He's not back yet?
- No.
Copy !req
168. Why don't you make a run for it?
Copy !req
169. You're a bitter little person,
aren't you?
Copy !req
170. Yeah. Well, I have a right to be.
Copy !req
171. - My husband left me with four kids.
- Four kids?
Copy !req
172. Right. And after I paid his way
through school hustling drinks.
Copy !req
173. What school did your husband go to?
Copy !req
174. The Colletti Academy.
Copy !req
175. TV repair.
Copy !req
176. So the minute he graduated,
he left me.
Copy !req
177. Said I wouldn't fit in with the
other repairmen's wives. Big shot!
Copy !req
178. - He sounds like a cur.
- Yeah. Well, he's not all bad.
Copy !req
179. He still fixes my set
and only bills me for parts.
Copy !req
180. If it's my missus, I'm on my way.
Copy !req
181. Cheers. Yeah, just a sec.
Is there an Ernie Pantusso?
Copy !req
182. - That's you, Coach.
- Speaking.
Copy !req
183. I'd like two draughts
and a Scotch on the rocks.
Copy !req
184. That group's arguing
about the sweatiest movie ever made.
Copy !req
185. The what?
Copy !req
186. What movie
did people sweat most in?
Copy !req
187. That's easy. Rocky II.
Copy !req
188. No, not even close.
Body Heat. Sweat city.
Copy !req
189. Ben Hur. The boys
in that galley sweat like pigs.
Copy !req
190. Alien. Buckets.
Copy !req
191. The night before my wedding and
I'm in the middle of a sweat contest.
Copy !req
192. Speaking of sweat,
here's a little-known fact.
Copy !req
193. Women have fewer sweat glands than
men, but they're larger, more active.
Copy !req
194. - The human body.
- Consequently, they sweat more.
Copy !req
195. Really?
Copy !req
196. Sure. How about you, miss?
What are your perspiration patterns?
Copy !req
197. Sumner, I'm so glad to see you.
Copy !req
198. These men have been arguing
over the sweatiest movie ever made.
Copy !req
199. - Cool Hand Luke.
- That's one!
Copy !req
200. What happened to you?
It's been over an hour.
Copy !req
201. Diane, that woman is extraordinary.
Copy !req
202. - Did she give you the ring?
- I couldn't take it.
Copy !req
203. - We've got a plane to catch.
- Diane, I love you.
Copy !req
204. But when I was with Barbara,
something stirred inside me.
Copy !req
205. We can talk about it on the flight.
Copy !req
206. I can't fly to Barbados
this confused.
Copy !req
207. It's OK, the pilot knows the way.
Copy !req
208. I love your wit.
Copy !req
209. You're a beautiful child.
Copy !req
210. - Let's go to Barbados.
- Let's go to Barbados.
Copy !req
211. - Who isn't here?
- Me.
Copy !req
212. Cheers. Just a minute.
Copy !req
213. If you're not, I apologise,
but is your name Sumner Sloane?
Copy !req
214. Yes, it is.
Copy !req
215. Hello?
Copy !req
216. No, it's alright.
She understands and I understand.
Copy !req
217. Barbara, that's very human of you.
I'll be right over.
Copy !req
218. And, Barbara,
your depth frightens me.
Copy !req
219. She insists that you have the ring.
Copy !req
220. We won't have time
to catch our flight.
Copy !req
221. You call and get us
on a later flight. I'll get the ring.
Copy !req
222. - Sumner...
- Yes?
Copy !req
223. - How about a kiss?
- Maybe. I'll play it by ear.
Copy !req
224. Cheer up, cookie.
He may have been in an accident.
Copy !req
225. I'm knocking off, Sam.
Home to my book.
Copy !req
226. - Still working on that novel?
- Yeah, coming on six years now.
Copy !req
227. I got a feeling
I might finish it tonight.
Copy !req
228. - You're writing a novel?
- No, reading one.
Copy !req
229. Wait a second.
I want you to take Norm home.
Copy !req
230. - Norm!
- I'm up.
Copy !req
231. One quick one
then I really gotta fly.
Copy !req
232. - Coach will take you home.
- I'll give you a lift.
Copy !req
233. - Goodnight, Sam.
- Goodnight.
Copy !req
234. Coach, we stop somewhere,
I'll buy you a beer.
Copy !req
235. Norm, you're in here every night.
Copy !req
236. Doesn't your wife wonder
where you're at?
Copy !req
237. Wonders. Doesn't care.
Copy !req
238. Night, Sam.
Thanks for letting me bend your ear.
Copy !req
239. That's OK, Ron. Goodnight.
Copy !req
240. You must get real tired
of hearing people cry in their beer.
Copy !req
241. I wonder why people
tell bartenders their problems.
Copy !req
242. - It's kind of sad, isn't it?
- Yeah.
Copy !req
243. These poor wretches
with no one in the world to turn to
Copy !req
244. but some stranger who mixes drinks.
Copy !req
245. I met Sumner two years ago.
Copy !req
246. I was so flattered
when he went out of his way
Copy !req
247. to pick me as his teaching assistant.
Copy !req
248. I'm still kind of in awe of him,
you know.
Copy !req
249. He's the most brilliant man
I've ever known.
Copy !req
250. For the last two years, he's been
the most important thing in my life,
Copy !req
251. and now I may be losing him.
Copy !req
252. Come on.
Copy !req
253. Look, you are
a very attractive young lady.
Copy !req
254. Thank you.
Copy !req
255. Yeah. Sure.
Copy !req
256. You're gonna find someone a lot
better than that goofy professor.
Copy !req
257. Goofy? Are you talking about Sumner?
Copy !req
258. - I'm talking about Sumner.
- You don't like Sumner.
Copy !req
259. I don't like Sumner.
Copy !req
260. - You know why you don't like Sumner?
- Because he's goofy.
Copy !req
261. No. Because
he's everything you're not.
Copy !req
262. He's well bred, highly educated,
he's distinguished, he's urbane...
Copy !req
263. - You left out "goofy".
- I did not leave out "goofy"!
Copy !req
264. - You were coming to it?
- I should have expected this.
Copy !req
265. That goof will be on the cover
of Saturday Review someday.
Copy !req
266. That goof is probably
gonna be on a beach tomorrow,
Copy !req
267. rubbing suntan oil on his ex-wife.
Copy !req
268. I've had a real rough day,
Copy !req
269. and I'm now going to reward myself
by getting out of here.
Copy !req
270. When Sumner comes back,
will you say I've gone home?
Copy !req
271. Fine.
Copy !req
272. I forgot to change
the reservations again.
Copy !req
273. - Use this one.
- Thank you.
Copy !req
274. I'd like to change the reservations
for Mr and Mrs Sumner Sloane,
Copy !req
275. flight 481 to Barbados.
Copy !req
276. They did? Are you sure?
Copy !req
277. No, thank you.
Copy !req
278. - I'm sorry.
- How did you know?
Copy !req
279. Bartenders' intuition.
Copy !req
280. A shame such an astute observer of
human nature is stuck behind a bar.
Copy !req
281. That's what I think.
Copy !req
282. Well, why not bring
your remarkable powers to bear
Copy !req
283. and enlighten me
as to what my future holds?
Copy !req
284. I'm probably gonna regret this,
but you could work here.
Copy !req
285. Sam.
Copy !req
286. Shut up for a second, will you?
Copy !req
287. I need...
Copy !req
288. I need two vodka gimlets,
one straight up, one blended, rocks,
Copy !req
289. Chivas rocks, soda,
a Comfort Manhattan, no cherry,
Copy !req
290. a white wine spritzer, an
Old Bushmill Irish decaf, no sugar.
Copy !req
291. What makes you think I would
ever work in a place like this?
Copy !req
292. Simple. You can't go back
to the professor for work.
Copy !req
293. I need a waitress. You need a job.
Copy !req
294. You like the people here.
You think they like you.
Copy !req
295. And the phrase "magnificent pagan
beast" has never left your mind.
Copy !req
296. Now, look, buster.
Copy !req
297. I do need a job. And I'll find one.
Copy !req
298. And you can bet
that it won't be waiting tables.
Copy !req
299. What are you qualified to do?
Copy !req
300. Nothing.
Copy !req
301. But somewhere, there is a job
that I'm perfect for,
Copy !req
302. that's perfect for me.
Copy !req
303. I'll find it.
And when I do, I'll know it.
Copy !req
304. Carla, what am I making?
Copy !req
305. Two vodka gimlets,
one straight up, one blended, rocks,
Copy !req
306. Chivas rocks, soda,
a Comfort Manhattan, no cherry,
Copy !req
307. a white wine spritzer with a twist,
Copy !req
308. one Old Bushmill lrish decaf,
hold the sugar.
Copy !req
309. Your first customers.
Copy !req
310. - Wish me luck.
- Luck.
Copy !req
311. Hello. Welcome to Cheers.
Copy !req
312. My name is Diane. I will be serving
you. Why don't you sit down here?
Copy !req
313. I should tell you, parenthetically,
Copy !req
314. that you are the first people
that I have ever served.
Copy !req
315. If anyone had told me a week ago
that I would be doing this,
Copy !req
316. I would have thought them insane.
Copy !req
317. When Sam offered me the job,
I laughed in his face.
Copy !req
318. But then it occurred to me,
Copy !req
319. here I am, I'm a student.
Copy !req
320. Not just in an academic sense,
but a student of life.
Copy !req
321. And where better than here
to study life in all its many facets?
Copy !req
322. People meet in bars, they part,
they rejoice, they suffer.
Copy !req
323. They come here
to be with their own kind.
Copy !req
324. What can I get you?
Copy !req
325. Where is police?
We have lost our luggage.
Copy !req
