1. Ah-choo!
Copy !req
2. Hi. Look, Frannie.
Copy !req
3. - I did the shopping.
- That's nice, Earl.
Copy !req
4. Yeah. And I found the
market all by myself.
Copy !req
5. I'm very proud of you.
Copy !req
6. Well, I just feel that marriage
is an equal partnership.
Copy !req
7. And since you've
been so sick with the flu,
Copy !req
8. I thought I'd take up the
slack and do my 50 percent.
Copy !req
9. I appreciate that, Earl.
Copy !req
10. If you want, I'll make a list of the
other things that need to be done.
Copy !req
11. I've already found your list
and taken care of everything.
Copy !req
12. I did the shopping, I planned a
wonderful birthday party for Charlene,
Copy !req
13. I, uh, picked up the dry
cleaning, and I had a bikini wax.
Copy !req
14. Ooh. Boy, am I tender.
Copy !req
15. Now, why don't you
get back into bed
Copy !req
16. and get some sleep.
Copy !req
17. What time's Charlene's party?
Copy !req
18. In about an hour.
Copy !req
19. - Sure you don't need
any help?
- Are you kidding?
Copy !req
20. I've got this place
running like clockwork.
Copy !req
21. You could lapse into a coma
and no one would notice.
Copy !req
22. Bye.
Copy !req
23. - A surprise party?
- Yeah, but you didn't
hear it from me.
Copy !req
24. You figured it out on your own.
Like anyone's gonna believe that.
Copy !req
25. Oh, is Mindy gonna be
there, and Denise, and Amy...?
Copy !req
26. Look, all I know is I'm supposed
to keep you out for another hour.
Copy !req
27. Oh, hey, Rob. Thanks
for doing your part in this.
Copy !req
28. Yeah, well, it's in
lieu of a present, OK.
Copy !req
29. I've been dropping hints to
Mom and Dad about this slinky,
Copy !req
30. black, off-the-shoulder
sweater I saw at the mall.
Copy !req
31. I'd like to hear all about it, but
we have more important business.
Copy !req
32. I don't wanna get in trouble
for telling you about it.
Copy !req
33. - Check.
- Let's see
your surprise face.
Copy !req
34. OK. How's this?
Copy !req
35. Ah!
Copy !req
36. I said surprise, not psychotic.
Copy !req
37. - Try again.
- Oh, OK. Here we go.
Copy !req
38. Ah.
Copy !req
39. Here they come.
Everybody get ready.
Copy !req
40. Well, I wonder
what's gonna happen.
Copy !req
41. Surprise!
Copy !req
42. - Yeah.
- Oh, surprise.
Copy !req
43. - Surprise, yeah, yeah.
- That's great.
Copy !req
44. Three queens. Gotta love 'em.
Copy !req
45. - Wha...?
- Now, that's
a surprise face.
Copy !req
46. Honey, I'm home.
Copy !req
47. Aaah!
Copy !req
48. - Ohh!
- Ow!
Copy !req
49. - Ow!
- Ooh!
Copy !req
50. Aah!
Copy !req
51. - Uh...
- I know you won't
believe this,
Copy !req
52. but I put this party
together all by myself.
Copy !req
53. Uh, Dad...
Copy !req
54. - Where are all my friends?
- I don't know. Where are they usually?
Copy !req
55. It's everything you
dreamed it would be, huh?
Copy !req
56. - Well, party hearty!
- Well...
Copy !req
57. Come on, Charlene,
we saved you a chair.
Copy !req
58. Poker? That's so boring.
Copy !req
59. Hey, not so. Deuces are wild.
Copy !req
60. Are you in, or what?
Copy !req
61. I can't believe that's all
you planned for my party.
Copy !req
62. To sit around and play cards?
Copy !req
63. Hey, poker is
just the beginning.
Copy !req
64. Once the bucket
of ribs gets here,
Copy !req
65. we're all gonna sit around and watch
this video your Uncle Roy brought.
Copy !req
66. "Wrestling's greatest
bloopers and blunders."
Copy !req
67. - Yeah!
- Yeah, happy birthday.
Copy !req
68. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Copy !req
69. This is a nightmare!
Copy !req
70. Now, now, sweetheart.
Copy !req
71. This may not be every
little girl's fantasy party,
Copy !req
72. but wait till you
open your presents.
Copy !req
73. There, uh, here
you go, Charlene.
Copy !req
74. - I, uh,
picked it out myself.
- Um, uh...
Copy !req
75. It's soup.
Copy !req
76. - What? Everybody likes soup.
- Yeah.
Copy !req
77. - I didn't have time
to get anything.
- I like soup.
Copy !req
78. Tell ya what, sit down
here, and I'll cover your ante.
Copy !req
79. Hey, that's not much of a gift.
Copy !req
80. This is my daughter here.
Copy !req
81. All right, then, uh...
The keg's on me.
Copy !req
82. - Yeah!
- Now, that's grand!
Copy !req
83. This... This is the
worst birthday ever!
Copy !req
84. You... You didn't think
about my feelings at all!
Copy !req
85. It's like you don't
even know me!
Copy !req
86. - Oh? I don't know you?
- Uh-uh.
Copy !req
87. Well, then, I guess it's
just pure luck that I got you
Copy !req
88. the one gift you had
your little heart set on.
Copy !req
89. - Huh?
- This variable-speed belt sander!
Copy !req
90. - Mom.
- There's my birthday girl.
Copy !req
91. I bet this is what
you've been waiting for.
Copy !req
92. Oh! Oh, finally,
something decent.
Copy !req
93. You dropped enough hints
about wanting a sweater.
Copy !req
94. Thanks, Mom. I figured
since you had the flu,
Copy !req
95. you wouldn't have a
chance to go to the mall...
Copy !req
96. - I made it myself.
- Uh...
Copy !req
97. I was afraid I wouldn't be able to
finish it because I was so feverish.
Copy !req
98. - It's hideous! Oh!
- Then it was worth
the extra effort.
Copy !req
99. Oh, I hate this family!
Nobody understands me!
Copy !req
100. Honey.
Copy !req
101. Earl!
Copy !req
102. - Yay!
- Earl!
Copy !req
103. What are the guys
from work doing here?
Copy !req
104. This is not a party
for a teenage girl.
Copy !req
105. What makes you say that?
Copy !req
106. Hey, Earl, the stripper's here.
Copy !req
107. So, how come I wasn't
invited to your party?
Copy !req
108. Because you don't
work with my dad.
Copy !req
109. Oh, Mindy, you didn't
miss anything. It was awful.
Copy !req
110. Yeah, well, our parents
will never understand us.
Copy !req
111. You're right.
Copy !req
112. My dad was in charge. Dads
never seem to have a clue.
Copy !req
113. Yeah, tell me about it. I
never got along with mine,
Copy !req
114. until he started
taking me to the ballet.
Copy !req
115. Now we see each
other, like, every Sunday.
Copy !req
116. And he bought me this
locket with our pictures in it.
Copy !req
117. - Ever buy you a belt sander?
- A what?
Copy !req
118. Never mind.
Copy !req
119. It's official. I have the
worst family in the world.
Copy !req
120. You know, I'd run away if
it wasn't so inconvenient.
Copy !req
121. - But, where would you go?
- I don't know.
Copy !req
122. Someplace far away.
Copy !req
123. A foreign land, or I could
live with a new family.
Copy !req
124. - Oh, dream on.
- Yeah. Hmm...
Copy !req
125. Oh...
Copy !req
126. Fran.
Copy !req
127. If I'm ever gonna get
a full day's work done,
Copy !req
128. you'll have to stop calling me home
for every miniscule domestic incident.
Copy !req
129. - What is it this time?
- Charlene's moving
to a foreign land.
Copy !req
130. And what land is that,
pouting little girl tantrum land?
Copy !req
131. She's serious, Earl.
Her bags are packed.
Copy !req
132. She volunteered for some sort
of exchange program at school.
Copy !req
133. She's very upset. She
says we don't know her.
Copy !req
134. If you knew Charlene like I do,
Copy !req
135. you'd know there's
nothing in this suitcase
Copy !req
136. except a lot of clothes
and other daily necessities.
Copy !req
137. Our baby's going away.
You've got to talk to her.
Copy !req
138. It's a bluff.
Copy !req
139. What possible reasons
would she have for leaving?
Copy !req
140. Lack of privacy, for starters.
Copy !req
141. Hey, that's a serious
accusation, young lady.
Copy !req
142. Hmm.
Copy !req
143. - Promise you'll write
every day?
- Oh, I will.
Copy !req
144. Well, I guess I'd
better be going.
Copy !req
145. - Ah.
- Here's your purse.
Copy !req
146. Thank you.
Copy !req
147. Oh, you are very
convincing. Very convincing.
Copy !req
148. Bon voyage.
Copy !req
149. Well, there she goes, right
down the block. Oh, isn't she cute?
Copy !req
150. - Come on, Fran. Let's wave.
- Huh?
Copy !req
151. Bye-bye, honey!
Copy !req
152. Oh, look, she's
getting on the bus.
Copy !req
153. Oh, she's really selling it.
Copy !req
154. She'll be getting off any
second and trudging home.
Copy !req
155. Oh! Look, the bus
is turning the corner.
Copy !req
156. Nice touch, dear!
Copy !req
157. Oh, wait. There she is.
Copy !req
158. - No, no, that's a lamppost.
- She wasn't bluffing, Earl.
Copy !req
159. - Duh, Fran.
- You want dinner,
come to the table.
Copy !req
160. I'm not feeding you
in the doorway again.
Copy !req
161. Geez.
Copy !req
162. So, with this exchange program,
Copy !req
163. what exactly do we
get for Charlene?
Copy !req
164. I hope it's a barbecue.
Copy !req
165. It's the teenage boy from
the family Charlene's with.
Copy !req
166. Oh, that stinks.
Copy !req
167. Dad, the whole purpose of the
program is to dissolve the stereotypes
Copy !req
168. and misunderstandings
between the species.
Copy !req
169. He can live out in the yard.
Those foreigners don't bathe.
Copy !req
170. I wanna be a foreigner.
Copy !req
171. Maybe we should look
at this as an opportunity
Copy !req
172. to learn about another culture,
Copy !req
173. to get a new perspective
on our own lives.
Copy !req
174. You want perspective?
Copy !req
175. You are rude and
ill-mannered pig dogs.
Copy !req
176. Shoo. Shoo! Shoo!
Copy !req
177. How dare you "shoo" me with
that bristled cleaning implement,
Copy !req
178. you large reptilian fish wife!
Copy !req
179. I am your exchange
student! Hmph.
Copy !req
180. Oh, I'm so sorry. We
didn't realize who you were.
Copy !req
181. Yes, yes. Now take my
valise, and get me some food,
Copy !req
182. you waddling, prattling shrew!
Copy !req
183. I am starving.
Copy !req
184. Oh. Oh, of course.
Copy !req
185. So... How are you doing?
Copy !req
186. I am Earl Sinclair.
Copy !req
187. - This is my son, Robbie.
- Hello.
Copy !req
188. And this is the baby.
Copy !req
189. Hello.
Copy !req
190. "The baby?"
Copy !req
191. What kind of imbecilic
name is "the baby"?
Copy !req
192. What's your name?
Copy !req
193. Francois Jean-Marie Poupon.
Copy !req
194. You win.
Copy !req
195. Here's a little home-style cooking
from our neck of the woods.
Copy !req
196. This is swill! You are
trying to poison me!
Copy !req
197. - Quiet!
- Geez!
Copy !req
198. Well, Fran, I don't know
where Charlene is now,
Copy !req
199. but at least she doesn't have to put
up with a horrible squawking monster.
Copy !req
200. - Yeah.
- Oh, geez.
Copy !req
201. Hey, lady!
Copy !req
202. Don't hurt a person!
Copy !req
203. Mr. Blaven...
Rosen, haven, flaven.
Copy !req
204. Flaven Ro... Row,
pro, fish roe? Ah!
Copy !req
205. They'll be waiting.
Hey, lady...!
Copy !req
206. - Do you see? Do you see?
- What?
Copy !req
207. Yes, yes. All right,
already. I give up!
Copy !req
208. - He is a genius.
- Brilliant! Such nuance!
Copy !req
209. Watch, watch! Next is the scene
where he puts a cigarette in his nose.
Copy !req
210. His humor works
on so many levels.
Copy !req
211. Ma chérie, turn off the
TV. It's time for supper.
Copy !req
212. - Yum, yum, yum.
- Oh, that's good.
Copy !req
213. I'm really hungry.
Copy !req
214. Mm. Open wide, Charlene.
Copy !req
215. Fresh worms. The worms
are so plump tonight.
Copy !req
216. Well, today was a vast
expanse of unrelenting tedium.
Copy !req
217. So, where will you
take me tomorrow, huh?
Copy !req
218. To the park? The museum?
Copy !req
219. You don't normally sit around
here all day, now, do you?
Copy !req
220. Well, pretty much.
Copy !req
221. That is why you are
fat and stupid. Ha!
Copy !req
222. Well, it has been a while since
we got out the badminton set.
Copy !req
223. Ha! I laugh with
unbridled contempt
Copy !req
224. at your pathetic
lawn activities. Ha!
Copy !req
225. Entertain me! Entertain me!
Copy !req
226. I'll tell you what. Fran and I
will work up a skit or something.
Copy !req
227. You play with the baby.
Copy !req
228. Come on, Fran.
Copy !req
229. Got a present for you.
Copy !req
230. Ah. And where would I find that?
Copy !req
231. In my diaper.
Copy !req
232. Yuck! You are disgusting. Ack!
Copy !req
233. - Shut up!
- Awk!
Copy !req
234. - Shut up! Shut up!
- Awk! Awk!
Copy !req
235. Shut up, shut up, shut up!
Copy !req
236. You know, Earl, I'm actually learning
a lot about the cultural differences
Copy !req
237. between us and
Francois' species.
Copy !req
238. We may be different on the
outside, but underneath it all,
Copy !req
239. I really want to kill them.
Copy !req
240. I want to kill every
single one of them.
Copy !req
241. Fran, this is a side of you
Copy !req
242. I've never seen before.
Copy !req
243. I want to take it hunting.
Copy !req
244. - Hey, listen.
- Hmm?
Copy !req
245. I guess even Francois couldn't
resist the charms of our little guy.
Copy !req
246. Come on.
Copy !req
247. Honey, where's Francois?
Copy !req
248. Huh?
Copy !req
249. Very naughty baby.
Copy !req
250. What do you have
to say for yourself?
Copy !req
251. Yummy!
Copy !req
252. - So, he ate one small
foreign exchange student.
- Earl!
Copy !req
253. Well, Francois did come to this
part of the world to see new things.
Copy !req
254. Ta-da!
Copy !req
255. Granted, it's no
trip to the museum.
Copy !req
256. We've got to call his
parents right away.
Copy !req
257. And say what?
Copy !req
258. "Hey, there, Poupon.
Copy !req
259. Can you recommend a good
wine to serve with your son?"
Copy !req
260. It's our duty to let them
know what happened.
Copy !req
261. When they find out, what do
you think they'll do with Charlene?
Copy !req
262. These foreigners are capable
of unspeakable savagery.
Copy !req
263. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Copy !req
264. Earl, we've got to tell them.
Copy !req
265. It's the honest,
decent thing to do.
Copy !req
266. Like I'm gonna pin
my hopes on that.
Copy !req
267. Good night, Henri.
Copy !req
268. Good night, Simone.
Copy !req
269. Um, excuse me please,
exchange papa and mama.
Copy !req
270. What is it now, Charlene?
Copy !req
271. Can it not wait till morning?
Copy !req
272. Do I have to sleep
sitting up again tonight?
Copy !req
273. Is she whining again?
Copy !req
274. It's just that I'm
really, really tired.
Copy !req
275. Fine! Anything to stop
your cacophonous mewling!
Copy !req
276. You may use Francois' room.
Copy !req
277. But... Ah...
Copy !req
278. I'm not sure that's
a real good idea.
Copy !req
279. Get up there, you spoiled,
irritating child! Now!
Copy !req
280. But...
Copy !req
281. Look what you have
done, you bloated biped!
Copy !req
282. How could your parents
have let you get so fat?
Copy !req
283. But they don't think I'm fat.
Copy !req
284. Then they are more
imbecilic than you are.
Copy !req
285. You know, you are very impolite.
Copy !req
286. Oh! Oh! Ow!
Copy !req
287. There you go, little fella.
You look just like Francois.
Copy !req
288. Yeah. Hm.
Copy !req
289. This is crazy, Earl. Parents
recognize their own children.
Copy !req
290. That's a gross
generalization, Fran.
Copy !req
291. You know these
foreigners all look the same.
Copy !req
292. You know, Earl, I don't think the
foreign food agreed with the baby.
Copy !req
293. - Bonjour!
- He's been acting
very strangely.
Copy !req
294. Let's have a look
at the little fella.
Copy !req
295. - Not la mere! Not la mere!
- Oh! Ow!
Copy !req
296. Looks OK to me.
Copy !req
297. I'm the baby. You
must love me, no?
Copy !req
298. Oh.
Copy !req
299. I'll just go and pick up
Charlene. I'll be back in a jiff.
Copy !req
300. Earl, maybe we should
talk about this some more.
Copy !req
301. He just doesn't look
very authentic to me.
Copy !req
302. Oh, no? Listen to this.
Copy !req
303. Go.
Copy !req
304. You are stupid. You are fat.
Copy !req
305. I will not eat your swill.
Copy !req
306. Now, that's a foreigner.
Copy !req
307. Franny? Honey?
Copy !req
308. What did I tell you? It
worked like a charm.
Copy !req
309. Dropped off the fake bird,
picked up our pride and joy.
Copy !req
310. - Where is Charlene? Is she OK?
- Yeah. She's picking up
her stuff.
Copy !req
311. Like I said, those
foreigners didn't have a clue.
Copy !req
312. They're not as close
to their children as us.
Copy !req
313. They don't have the same affection
and devotion we have for Charlene.
Copy !req
314. Hi, Mom. It's good to be home.
Copy !req
315. May I have a dollar? La, la.
Copy !req
316. Earl, this is not Charlene.
Copy !req
317. Uh, sweetheart, your mother's
been under a lot of stress lately.
Copy !req
318. Earl, this is an imposter.
You've been tricked.
Copy !req
319. Let's take a look.
Copy !req
320. You're right!
Copy !req
321. You lied to me! Go to your room!
Copy !req
322. Sheesh!
Copy !req
323. Oh, come on, Fran!
Copy !req
324. You gotta admit it's a
pretty uncanny likeness.
Copy !req
325. You don't even know
your own daughter.
Copy !req
326. Yes, I do.
Copy !req
327. Come on, ask me something
about Charlene. Ask me anything.
Copy !req
328. Where is she now?
Copy !req
329. Ask me something about Robbie.
Copy !req
330. - Hello?
- Madame Sinclair?
Copy !req
331. Yes.
Copy !req
332. It's the Poupons.
Copy !req
333. What have you done with our son?
Copy !req
334. What have you done
with our daughter?
Copy !req
335. She was rude and ungrateful.
Copy !req
336. She destroyed our home
like a rampaging bison.
Copy !req
337. - Where is she?
- I do not know. Nor do I care.
Copy !req
338. She ran away, if anything
that fat could be said to run.
Copy !req
339. Why is your baby staring at me?
Copy !req
340. Bon appétit.
Copy !req
341. You already had one,
you'll ruin your dinner.
Copy !req
342. Oh...
Copy !req
343. What about Francois?
Did he also run away?
Copy !req
344. Well, he tried but
he didn't get very far.
Copy !req
345. Earl! Um...
Copy !req
346. We have terrible, terrible news.
Copy !req
347. Oh, no, no. She's
being melodramatic.
Copy !req
348. - You know how females are.
- Earl...
Copy !req
349. You see, Francois and
our baby got to playing.
Copy !req
350. And you know youngsters, there's
always some kind of little accident.
Copy !req
351. A bumped head here,
a scraped knee there...
Copy !req
352. one kid swallows another.
Copy !req
353. Kids will be kids.
Copy !req
354. Well, I'd be lying if I
said I wasn't disappointed.
Copy !req
355. I don't know how we can
ever make this up to you.
Copy !req
356. - That would be
some trick, yes.
- Oui.
Copy !req
357. Francois' departure has
left an emptiness in our lives.
Copy !req
358. A void which can
never be filled.
Copy !req
359. But, perhaps you can help
the healing process begin by...
Copy !req
360. loading your TV
set into our car.
Copy !req
361. Yeah... What? No! Not the TV!
Copy !req
362. Earl, give them the TV.
Copy !req
363. To us it would be a
virtual big-screen, huh?
Copy !req
364. Come on, Fran. He
can make other kids.
Copy !req
365. I have no clue how
to make another TV.
Copy !req
366. Please, accept it
with our condolences.
Copy !req
367. I just had it serviced!
Copy !req
368. Hello?
Copy !req
369. I'm home!
Copy !req
370. Look, Fran!
Copy !req
371. - I'm pretty sure it's Charlene.
- Oh, my baby, are you OK?
Copy !req
372. Oh, let me hug you,
my daughter, Charlene,
Copy !req
373. who I recognized
almost immediately.
Copy !req
374. You know, the last two days
have made me realize something.
Copy !req
375. Even though my family doesn't
always understand me or appreciate me,
Copy !req
376. it's still better than having to
sleep on a stick and eat worms.
Copy !req
377. - I missed you too.
- Yeah.
Copy !req
378. And, I guess...
Copy !req
379. you and I both have a lot of
feelings and emotions to sort out.
Copy !req
380. Fran, you're up.
Copy !req
381. You all go ahead. I'm going
to see the Poupons out.
Copy !req
382. - But, uh... Um...
- Fran, you...
Copy !req
383. Well...
Copy !req
384. I... So...
Copy !req
385. Look...
Copy !req
386. - I'm sorry about
your birthday party.
- Yeah.
Copy !req
387. And the last 14
years and everything.
Copy !req
388. Me too.
Copy !req
389. Maybe the problem is...
Copy !req
390. we don't spend
much time together.
Copy !req
391. Just the two of us.
Copy !req
392. - We used to.
- That's true.
Copy !req
393. Remember when you were five?
Copy !req
394. I'd buy you something
shiny, and you'd say "ooh!"
Copy !req
395. And we understood each other.
Copy !req
396. But the things you're
interested in now...
Copy !req
397. Oh, you mean like my friends
and what they think of me,
Copy !req
398. and relationships, and what
kind of boy I'm gonna marry and...
Copy !req
399. You have no idea how
scary that sounds to a father.
Copy !req
400. Well, I guess it's really
not the kind of thing
Copy !req
401. a girl wants to talk about
with her dad, anyway.
Copy !req
402. So, we're agreed.
Copy !req
403. Actual conversation is
too ambitious at this point.
Copy !req
404. - Yeah.
- So, we start by, uh...
Copy !req
405. Just hanging out together?
Copy !req
406. Well, you know...
Copy !req
407. I had my heart set on
going down to the mall,
Copy !req
408. and seeing what was new in
the teenage girls' sweater section.
Copy !req
409. And maybe seeing if one
particular sweater caught my fancy.
Copy !req
410. I was gonna go with some of the
guys from work, but if you're free...
Copy !req
411. That's a pretty pathetic lie.
Copy !req
412. Yeah.
Copy !req
413. And I accept.
