52. I just seem to have misplaced something I need rather badly.

53. - What does it look like, sir? - Well, it's a large, gray,

54. overstuffed butler!

55. I asked for these an hour ago.

56. - You're fired. - I'm sorry, sir.

62. His is Porsche Puppy.

63. You're Good and Plenty?

73. We'll change all that.

74. Nanny Fine, give me one good reason I should go out with you.

84. You know, coming here was a great idea.

85. You're a lot smarter than you look, Nanny Fine.

86. Well, I should hope so.

87. Look at those men over there, staring at us smoke.

88. It's not very feminine. I wonder why it turns them on so much?

89. Hi.

90. If you don't mind, we're having a girls' night only.

91. - Who you interested in? - Her.

92. Yeah. Girls' night only, bub.

100. Where's Miss Fine?

101. She's out with Ms. Babcock,

102. you know, our two single, independent women.

103. When you sent Miss Fine to therapy, you never thought how it would affect me.

104. Ms. Babcock should be here. She's my home entertainment center.

105. Niles, can you get me a drink?

106. Happy hour doesn't start 'till you go home.

107. See? It just doesn't work with her.

108. Look, would you stop complaining?

109. Miss Fine giving up men is a godsend.

110. But, sir, you're a man, despite the way you dribble a ball

111. and those bath beads you like so much.

112. This is not about me.

113. Miss Fine giving up her urge to be in a relationship,

114. is the best thing for her.

115. No more rushing into romances, no more getting her poor heart broken.

116. - No more nudging you to make a commitment. - Yeah, I know. Isn't it wonderful?

117. And the best part of it is, it's all the doctor's idea.

118. There's no way I can be blamed for this.

119. I blame you for this.

120. I don't know who the bigger nut is,

121. that shrink for telling her she doesn't need to get married,

122. or you for paying for it.

123. Tell her that you can't afford it, that you're broke.

124. Well, she'll never believe that. He's worth millions.

125. Have you ever thought of investing in a bagel nosh in Boca?

126. I know a couple that could run it for you.

127. Sylvia, look, your daughter has reevaluated her goals in life,

128. and we're just gonna have to support her.

129. Why? She doesn't support my goals,

130. that she get married, have children.

131. See her picture in this frame.

132. That's my family.

133. Hello?

134. I am so upset.

135. I don't know whether this is Muenster or Jack.

136. Sylvia. Sylvia, listen to me.

137. You're going to have to give your daughter room to grow,

138. or you're gonna risk alienating her.

139. How could I be so stupid?

140. This is cheddar with port-wine marbling.

141. Okay. One question, little buddy.

142. Do you think this leather jacket

143. is a little too come-hither for a gay club?

144. Well, personally, I have problems with tall blond Aryans in leather jackets.

145. What makes you think the place is a gay club?

146. Well, I heard your mother scream at you

147. for pursuing a sick alternative lifestyle.

148. She just meant being single.

149. Do you have to know every bloody thing that's going on in this house?

150. You're like a fishwife.

151. Okay, Dad.

152. They're going to a blues bar with Val. C.C. is treating to a cab.

153. Now, the boots that I want are on hold at Bergdorf's.

154. You know, if we change our hair appointments to the same day,

155. we can talk under the dryers.

156. - You know what, Nanny Fine? - What?

157. I'm not even gonna take my purse.

158. I don't need my perfume or my makeup.

159. I'm not primping for a man.

160. You know what? I don't need my purse either. Let's go.

161. You know what? Wait a minute. I just need one thing in here.

162. Just one minute here.

163. Gotta have this and my credit card.

164. I'm gonna just take that. And then, a couple of more things.

165. I can't really live without them.

166. You know what? I can't do this. I can't do this.

167. You know, I'm not ready for this yet. That's all.

168. I'll get it!

169. - Hi. - Hi.

170. Listen, I can't go out with you tonight

171. and celebrate that we don't need men.

172. - Why? - 'Cause I got one.

173. Bye, Val. Have fun.

174. Well, it looks like it's just you and me, Ms. Babcock.

175. - More no men for us. - Yeah.

176. Chandler, what are you doing here?

177. I just stopped by to drop off these contracts.

178. All right, that's a lie.

179. I own three Broadway theaters.

180. I don't need to deliver my own contracts.

181. I just wanted to catch one more glimpse

182. of that smooth white skin.

183. Well, Maxwell's English. You know, they all have that milky—

184. Who? Me?

185. I know this is kind of last minute, but,

186. do you think you could join me for dinner tonight?

187. Well, Chandler, it's 8:30 on a Saturday night.

188. Yes.

189. Well, good night and thank you very much.

190. Boy, I hope she's not planning on getting lucky tonight.

191. - Why not? - Because she took my purse

192. and the only protection I got in there is a picture of Ma.

193. Okay, how about this one?

194. You win the lottery, get struck by lightning

195. and you're invited to the White House by President Perot?

196. No, no. The odds of Val and Ms. Babcock,

197. both having boyfriends is still higher.

198. I suppose we should be happy for them.

199. - But who is? - Screw them.

200. They'll be going out on a double date tonight.

201. They asked me to join them, but...

202. - I don't wanna be a fifth wheel. - If I were you, I would go.

203. - Really? - Of course. Remember,

204. when a tire goes out on a car, they need that fifth wheel.

205. What's that mean?

206. I don't know. I'm depressed about Ms. Babcock. I've been in the brandy.

207. Now, what is wrong with me?

208. I can hold my own without a man.

209. I'm an independent, self-sufficient woman.

210. You know what? I am gonna march myself right down there

211. - and order me a lobster. - A lobster?

212. Well, bat my eyes a few times. The boys will pick up the check.

213. - Where's Miss Fine? - She's stepping out with my baby.

214. I was gonna cheer her up.

215. I made reservations for the two of us at La Côte Basque.

216. Well, never mind.

217. - What are you doing tonight? - Nothing, sir. Free as a bird.

218. Good. Cancel my reservations and make me a taco.

219. Now, before we dig in, I just wanna say this evening is on me.

220. - No, no, no. - Say something.

221. Can I order the really big shrimp?

222. Why don't I choose a wine?

223. Hi.

224. But not that one.

225. - Hi. - Hi.

226. We were beginning to hope— think you wouldn't come.

227. I'll just sit on the side here. Just move over, just a little bit.

228. I don't take up a lot of room.

229. I don't know why we haven't done this before, Ms. Babcock.

230. Me neither, Val. Salute.

231. That's why.

232. Good garlic toast.

233. You know, next time we all go out together,

234. we should try the Chinese restaurant next door.

235. That's the real McCoy.

236. Full of Jews.

237. The cheese is just a little clumpy.

238. - Maybe we should order our entrées. - Good.

239. - That's a good idea. Yeah, let's order. - Wait,

240. someone must be sitting on my menu.

241. - No. - No, no.

242. - Fran. Fran. - Are you all right?

243. Yes. Okay. Yeah, I'm okay. I'm fine. I'm fine.

244. Go back to your calamari. Nothing to see here.

245. - Why don't I sit on the end, shall I? - Okay.

246. - Thanks. Thank you. Thanks. - Okay.

247. How embarrassing.

248. Okay. Here we go. All right.

249. Now, let's see.

250. Dinner for two. Chateaubriand for two.

251. That's for two. What is this? A restaurant or an ark?

252. You know, Fran, I think that guy over there is flirting with you.

253. - Look, he's waving, he's pointing. - Val, I so don't care.

254. Why does a man think just because a woman is alone,

255. that she instantly wants a companion? Here we go. Here we go.

256. - Excuse me. - Yes?

257. There's a candle behind you and I think your hair's on fire.

258. Okay. All right. Okay. Okay. Everything's okay.

259. Stop hitting me, Val.

260. You know, I think this garlic bread's burned

261. or it's got smoked cheese or something.

262. Right, right.

263. I just thought it was hot because I'm sitting next to you.

264. Oh, stop!

265. Maximum capacity, 140.

266. - Care to dance? - I would.

267. How about it, Val? Would you like to dance?

268. Well, I don't wanna leave Fran

269. - sitting here all by herself. - No, it's okay, honey.

270. - Go ahead and have fun. - All right.

271. You know what? I could dance by myself.

272. Yeah. That's exactly what I'm gonna do.

273. Would I lie to you, honey?

274. No, no, no.

275. Now would I say something That wasn't true

276. I'm asking you, sugar Would I lie to you

277. And I'd do anything for you

278. In spite of it all

279. I've learned so much from you

280. You made me strong

281. But don't you ever think That I don't love you

282. For one minute I forgot you

283. Sometimes things don't work out right

284. And you just have to say goodbye

285. - I'm sorry. I'm sorry. - No, that's all right.

286. We're staying at the airport Hilton.

287. I mean, what do we really know about this Chandler fellow

288. Ms. Babcock's so fond of?

289. Where did that psychiatrist get his degree?

290. That's what I'd like to know.

291. Gin.

292. And what kind of an imbecile encourages a single woman

293. to go out with two couples, like some kind of a fifth wheel?

294. Yes, it's madness, sir.

295. I sent her to that psychiatrist to stop this dating lunacy

296. and get her to spend more time here with me.

297. Well, the children, you know.

298. Gin.

299. It's time you went to bed now, Brighton.

300. Okay. Well, here's what you guys owe me.

301. He's a good card player.

302. Well, he learned it from me.

303. - Well, good night, sir. - Yeah, good night.

304. Listen, Niles, I was thinking,

305. tomorrow is Saturday, do you have any plans?

306. Why?

307. Do you want me to move the piano upstairs?

308. Snake the drains in all the bathrooms?

309. Actually, I was gonna ask you to join me at the club for brunch.

310. But if you're gonna have that attitude, you can just stay home

311. and heat yourself up a bloody Pizza Pocket.

312. Bye.

313. Yeah. No, no, no. I can't tomorrow.

314. Go home, you zanies.

315. Those four, just party, party, party.

316. But, you know, I gotta get up in the morning.

317. - So, you had a good time, Miss Fine? - Need you ask?

318. Does this look like the face of a person that had a bad time?

319. I had a fabulous time. Why do you think I've been out,

320. - half the night? - Well, Miss Fine, it's only 8:15.

321. I had a horrible time.

322. Miss Fine. There, there.

323. You know, Miss Fine, it's a very brave thing you did.

324. Just after Sara died,

325. when I had to venture out on my own for the first time.

326. Just me and my butler and my chauffeur.

327. Well, the point is, the point is Miss Fine,

328. this independence takes time.

329. I'll tell you what. Just for now,

330. why don't we practice being on our own together?

331. On our own together?

332. That could work.

333. - What are you playing? - Solitaire.

334. - Can I play too? - Well, actually, Miss Fine,

335. it's a game for one person to—

336. All right. Go on. Have a go.

337. Well, here's your whole problem, mister.

338. You got a king over here by himself,

339. and you got a queen over there, alone like a dog.

340. Put your queen on top of your king and watch what happens.

341. - Over there. - All right.

342. - Okay. Yes. - Move that over there.

343. - All right. - Okay.

344. Now we're getting some action, you see?

345. All right. And I'm done.

346. See how fast I finished?

347. And you wonder why you're playing solitaire.

348. When I snap my fingers,

349. you will no longer try to fix your daughter up with men.

350. You will no longer be obsessed with her getting married.

351. And you'll have a burning desire to move to Boca.

352. Fran, I just had a fabulous idea!

353. - It came to me in a dream. - What, Ma?

354. You'll get married in Boca!

355. All right.

356. This session's on me.
