1. So, what's happening with you
and Mr. Sheffield?
Copy !req
2. Nada.
Copy !req
3. Ever since me and Mr. Sheffield
started to heat things up,
Copy !req
4. we haven't had one minute alone together.
Copy !req
5. Open a mouth. Just say, "Go away.
Copy !req
6. Leave us alone. We want privacy."
Copy !req
7. Go away. Leave us alone. We want privacy.
Copy !req
8. There you go.
Copy !req
9. - Miss Fine.
- Hi.
Copy !req
10. Sylvia, would you mind, I'd like
some time alone with your daughter.
Copy !req
11. There are some Hershey's Kisses
under the cushions on the couch.
Copy !req
12. Miss Fine, so nice finally to have
some time alone together.
Copy !req
13. - Yeah.
- I've missed you.
Copy !req
14. Me, too, you.
Copy !req
15. Which couch?
Copy !req
16. The office!
Copy !req
17. You were saying?
Copy !req
18. I... I know I've been dragging my feet
a little with regards to,
Copy !req
19. our relationship,
Copy !req
20. but I'm gonna change that.
Copy !req
21. I think it's time you and I had a date.
Copy !req
22. Oh, my God.
You're asking me out on a date?
Copy !req
23. Yes, yes, yes.
I was thinking Friday night?
Copy !req
24. Oh, I can't. I gotta cook for the Sabbath.
Copy !req
25. - Oh, really?
- Yeah, right. Where are we going?
Copy !req
26. Well, as you know, I've been dying to get
Elton John to star in my new musical.
Copy !req
27. - Yeah.
- It so happens, he's invited me
Copy !req
28. to the premiere of his new movie,
Tantrums & Tiaras.
Copy !req
29. Mr. Sheffield you don't know
how happy this makes me.
Copy !req
30. Not only have you asked me out on a date,
Copy !req
31. but you actually trust me to not be
concerned that I'm going to embarrass you
Copy !req
32. in front of a celebrity.
Copy !req
33. Of course.
Copy !req
34. She was working in a bridal shop
In Flushing, Queens
Copy !req
35. 'Til her boyfriend kicked her out
In one of those crushing scenes
Copy !req
36. What was she to do, where was she to go?
She was out on her fanny
Copy !req
37. So, over the bridge from Flushing
To the Sheffields' door
Copy !req
38. She was there to sell makeup
But the father saw more
Copy !req
39. She had style, she had flair She was there
Copy !req
40. That's how she became the Nanny
Copy !req
41. Who would have guessed
That the girl we described
Copy !req
42. Was just exactly
What the doctor prescribed?
Copy !req
43. - Now the father finds her beguiling
- Watch out, C.C.
Copy !req
44. - And the kids are actually smiling
- Such joie de vivre!
Copy !req
45. She's the lady in red
When everybody else is wearing tan
Copy !req
46. The flashy girl from Flushing
The Nanny named Fran
Copy !req
47. I just don't understand why Maxwell,
would ask Nanny Fine on a date.
Copy !req
48. I should be going to Elton John's dinner,
not her.
Copy !req
49. I am the one with sophistication.
Copy !req
50. I am the one with savvy.
Copy !req
51. Why would he pick her over me?
Copy !req
52. He doesn't like you!
Copy !req
53. Why?
Copy !req
54. Miss Babcock, I would love to help you,
Copy !req
55. but ever since the heart attack,
the one you're partly responsible for,
Copy !req
56. I get easily winded.
Copy !req
57. I can't speak and work at the same time.
Copy !req
58. Well, what am I doing wrong?
Copy !req
59. Well, for one thing,
you've known him for 25 years
Copy !req
60. or half your life, and you don't know
the names of his children.
Copy !req
61. Okay. Good, good.
Learn kids' names. That's a start.
Copy !req
62. You know, this is nice.
We're helping each other.
Copy !req
63. Well, that's what friends are for.
Copy !req
64. You know, there's a very strange fungus
in Brighton's shower.
Copy !req
65. - Would you mind?
- Sure, pal.
Copy !req
66. Oh, Niles.
Copy !req
67. Do you think Miss Babcock's upset
that I asked Nanny Fine out on a date?
Copy !req
68. Oh, no, sir.
Copy !req
69. I'd hate for her to think
I didn't like her.
Copy !req
70. Wherever would she get that idea?
Copy !req
71. I don't know, maybe from some
big fat butler screaming it in her face!
Copy !req
72. Oh, stop it!
I know those are bloody Tic Tacs.
Copy !req
73. Sick to death of the whole thing.
Copy !req
74. I want the two of you to stop
behaving like children.
Copy !req
75. Good God, Miss Fine and I are the only two
around here behaving like adults.
Copy !req
76. - It's our first date!
- Fran, this is so exciting!
Copy !req
77. Okay, okay. We gotta calm down.
I mean, I'm not 16 anymore.
Copy !req
78. - But isn't he a babe?
- Yes!
Copy !req
79. - Look how great our names fit together!
- I know!
Copy !req
80. Oh, God.
Copy !req
81. Oh, boy. That's gonna kill me tomorrow.
Copy !req
82. Oh, Val, can you believe
this is happening?
Copy !req
83. First, he cops a feel on a week
that I'm retaining.
Copy !req
84. - Is that luck or what?
- Wait!
Copy !req
85. - Then he lets you remodel.
- Yeah.
Copy !req
86. - Then he asks you out.
- Oh, finally.
Copy !req
87. My feet are firmly planted on the ground.
Copy !req
88. Now I gotta make sure to speed things up
before my tuchus is there too.
Copy !req
89. Hey, you know,
I do isometrics to keep my butt firm.
Copy !req
90. You know, I'm doing them right now.
Copy !req
91. Get off my bed, Val.
Copy !req
92. I tell you, you know what's really going
to impress Mr. Sheffield?
Copy !req
93. When I tell him at the dinner
that I have already met Elton John.
Copy !req
94. Get out of here. How?
Copy !req
95. Well, remember that Sheffield vacation
in the south of France
Copy !req
96. that I couldn't get out of?
Copy !req
97. You mean the one where you told
Mr. Sheffield if anything happens
Copy !req
98. to Grace, you're the only one
with her blood type?
Copy !req
99. Uh-huh.
Copy !req
100. Well, anyway, Elton was staying
at that same hotel.
Copy !req
101. I saw him playing tennis
and I yelled at him,
Copy !req
102. "Yoo-hoo!"
Copy !req
103. You always know the perfect thing to say.
Copy !req
104. Well, you know, Val,
when you travel in circles like I do...
Copy !req
105. you just get glib.
Copy !req
106. Kids, kids, kids! Come in here!
Copy !req
107. You're not gonna believe
the most incredible thing has happened.
Copy !req
108. Your father is taking us to a screening
of Elton John's new movie
Copy !req
109. and then there's a private dinner party
afterwards.
Copy !req
110. - Are you serious?
- Uh-huh.
Copy !req
111. I'm going to Elton John's dinner party?
Copy !req
112. No.
Copy !req
113. Isn't that great?
Copy !req
114. It's just me and your father.
It's our first date!
Copy !req
115. You're not going and you're not going.
Copy !req
116. Everybody that's going
to Elton John's private dinner party,
Copy !req
117. take one step forward.
Copy !req
118. Well, Niles, is everyone ready?
Copy !req
119. Maxwell, Margaret, Brighton, Gracie?
Copy !req
120. Very good. And...
Copy !req
121. And what?
Copy !req
122. Oh, for heaven's sake, he's your favorite.
Copy !req
123. Little Sidney.
Copy !req
124. There are four?
Copy !req
125. Oh, right. I know him.
Copy !req
126. Yep. Yep, I've seen that face.
Copy !req
127. Of course you have.
Copy !req
128. Niles, are done with my picture of us
with Macaulay Culkin?
Copy !req
129. Sylvia. You look...
Copy !req
130. amazing.
Copy !req
131. Thank you.
It's from the Jo Anne Worley collection.
Copy !req
132. Ma, how could you wear pants
to a formal affair?
Copy !req
133. This isn't a gown?
Copy !req
134. Oh, and here I am thinking
I'm looking so sexy with this high slit.
Copy !req
135. Hi.
Copy !req
136. Oh, this is gonna be such a great night
Copy !req
137. and I'm so happy you guys get
to share it with me.
Copy !req
138. But if I see your faces
after the screening, you're dead.
Copy !req
139. Because that's when they date kicks in.
Copy !req
140. Sweetheart, do you remember
the night of your prom when you came home
Copy !req
141. with your dress all disheveled
Copy !req
142. and your bra sticking out of your purse?
Copy !req
143. Yeah.
Copy !req
144. Let's hope history repeats itself!
Copy !req
145. My God, you look lovely.
Copy !req
146. Thank you.
Copy !req
147. But it's Fran's night. Compliment her.
Copy !req
148. Well, I suppose we should get going.
Copy !req
149. Yes, yes. We should.
Copy !req
150. Let's go, Margaret, Brighton,
Gracie, Sidney!
Copy !req
151. You guys go ahead,
I'll be out in a minute.
Copy !req
152. I just want to check my face.
I'll be okay.
Copy !req
153. Now I know that we haven't talked since,
John-John went through with the wedding
Copy !req
154. but I really love this guy,
Copy !req
155. so please help me
to make everything go good tonight.
Copy !req
156. I suppose a sign that you heard me
would be too much to ask?
Copy !req
157. Come on, Miss Fine.
Copy !req
158. Oh, I'm afraid the limo's a tad crowded
so you're gonna have to sit on my lap.
Copy !req
159. That'll do.
Copy !req
160. - I want some popcorn.
- I'll take you, Gracie.
Copy !req
161. I'll go.
Copy !req
162. No, no, no, Miss Fine, Miss Fine. I'll go.
Copy !req
163. Remember, you're not my nanny tonight.
Copy !req
164. Tonight, you're my date.
Copy !req
165. And you're my escort. You see to my needs.
Copy !req
166. You do for me.
Copy !req
167. - You want something?
- Rolo's.
Copy !req
168. He doesn't give a rat's patootie
if I know the kids' names.
Copy !req
169. - All he cares about is Nanny Fine.
- You've still got a shot.
Copy !req
170. Why else would he ask you
to look after Sidney?
Copy !req
171. - When did he do that?
- You know, in the limo.
Copy !req
172. When we stopped for gas.
Copy !req
173. Yetta's.
Copy !req
174. Well, where is he?
Copy !req
175. Oh, dear. I thought he was with you.
Copy !req
176. Sidney. Sidney.
Copy !req
177. Hey, that's that hotel we stayed at.
Copy !req
178. Yeah. Look, there's Elton playing tennis.
Copy !req
179. That's where I talked to him.
That's where I said, "Yoo-hoo".
Copy !req
180. - You wanna tell me what happened?
- I just lost my temper.
Copy !req
181. This bloody woman at the end
of the court waving to me, "Yoo-hoo".
Copy !req
182. and it just pissed me off.
Copy !req
183. Oh, if Elton finds out that was me
he's never gonna be in your father's show.
Copy !req
184. Your father's gonna be a laughingstock.
Copy !req
185. He's going to be totally humiliated.
Copy !req
186. This is the worst thing
I've ever done to him.
Copy !req
187. Why don't you just go home?
Copy !req
188. I don't wanna ruin our first date.
Copy !req
189. This never would've happened
if you knew your place with celebrities.
Copy !req
190. Ma!
Copy !req
191. You have to learn to use decorum.
Copy !req
192. Miss Close...
Copy !req
193. I loved you in Sunset Boulevard.
Copy !req
194. Okay, think. Think!
Copy !req
195. I gotta get through that dinner
without Elton recognizing me.
Copy !req
196. I need a disguise.
Copy !req
197. Yetta.
Copy !req
198. What?
Copy !req
199. When you coming out of there?
Copy !req
200. I can't decide whether to vote
for Nixon or Kennedy.
Copy !req
201. Give me that wig, old woman!
Copy !req
202. Oh, my God! This is just like...
Copy !req
203. Patty Duke and Susan Hayward
in the Valley of the Dolls.
Copy !req
204. You'll have to excuse them.
Copy !req
205. They don't know how to act
in front of celebrities.
Copy !req
206. Elton, Elton. Wonderful film. Wonderful.
Copy !req
207. David, first class directing job.
Copy !req
208. It must've been quite a challenge
to maintain control of the piece and yet,
Copy !req
209. you know, allow the vérité style to flow.
Copy !req
210. Who is this guy?
Copy !req
211. He gives a ton of money to the foundation.
Copy !req
212. Yes, it was.
Copy !req
213. So, Maxwell,
you didn't come alone tonight, did you?
Copy !req
214. No Elton. Actually I'm taking
the opportunity
Copy !req
215. to use this evening
as a sort of a first date.
Copy !req
216. Well, that's very flattering,
but you know I'm involved.
Copy !req
217. Oh, no.
Copy !req
218. No, no, no. No. She's in the ladies' room.
Copy !req
219. And quite a knockout, if I may say.
Copy !req
220. Hello.
Copy !req
221. Here she is now!
Copy !req
222. Elton John, I am such a big fan of yours.
Copy !req
223. Hi, I'm Fran Fine. And that movie!
Copy !req
224. Tantrums & Tiaras,
it's sure to be a classic.
Copy !req
225. - Fran.
- Yeah?
Copy !req
226. You look awfully familiar.
Copy !req
227. Have we ever met?
Copy !req
228. No, no, no. That's impossible.
Copy !req
229. And those glasses. They are fantastic.
Copy !req
230. - Let me try them on—
- No! No! No!
Copy !req
231. No, thank you.
Copy !req
232. - May I see you for a moment?
- Yeah, just a sec, honey.
Copy !req
233. Tell me, Elton, whatever happened
to that Kiki Dee—
Copy !req
234. Now I know why she's so familiar.
Copy !req
235. I have that jacket.
Copy !req
236. All right, will you kindly tell me
what the hell is going on?
Copy !req
237. Why are you in this ridiculous disguise?
Copy !req
238. Well, I'm not going to tell you
because you'll get mad.
Copy !req
239. No, I—
Copy !req
240. No, I'm not.
Copy !req
241. See?
Copy !req
242. You! You're the "yoo-hoo" lady?
Copy !req
243. You're the raving lunatic
everyone's talking about?
Copy !req
244. - Come on, we're getting out of here.
- No, wait a minute.
Copy !req
245. You might still get him to do your show.
He didn't recognize me.
Copy !req
246. Right now, he just thinks you're some guy
with an Estelle Getty fetish.
Copy !req
247. You know, Elton...
Copy !req
248. Mr. Sheffield has this fabulous
new musical that you'd be perfect for.
Copy !req
249. Why don't you tell him about it?
Copy !req
250. Yes. Right, yes.
Copy !req
251. Yeah. Right, well...
Yes, Elton, it's a rock musical and...
Copy !req
252. You're eating flower!
Copy !req
253. So this is a first date for you two?
Copy !req
254. Actually, we have been together
for four years.
Copy !req
255. - We just felt it was time—
- Waiter's hand.
Copy !req
256. Meanwhile, this elastic waistband is
so tight,
Copy !req
257. it's cutting off my circulation.
I can't even feel my own tuchus.
Copy !req
258. Elton's tuchus.
Copy !req
259. I think it's going very well. Don't you?
Copy !req
260. Oh, there you are.
Where did you disappear tonight?
Copy !req
261. Well, I did what Maxwell said.
Copy !req
262. Apparently, I'm the only one
who cares about his kids.
Copy !req
263. What are you talking about?
Margaret took the children for ice cream.
Copy !req
264. I'm tired.
Copy !req
265. It's no wonder with all that running
you did, Sidney.
Copy !req
266. He kept trying to get away from me to go
into George of the Jungle, but I got him.
Copy !req
267. Oh, my God, you insane woman.
You've kidnapped someone's child.
Copy !req
268. - What?
- There is no Sidney!
Copy !req
269. I made him up, you lunatic!
Oh, my God. We're going to prison.
Copy !req
270. I stole someone's child?
Copy !req
271. I thought you were trying to help me!
Copy !req
272. You baboon. Why would I help you?
Copy !req
273. Oh, no, no. This is all my fault.
I have got to call that theater.
Copy !req
274. Okay, you can go. Here's ten for you
and ten for your mom.
Copy !req
275. But you promised us $50.
Copy !req
276. And if you'd remembered the part
about needing your insulin
Copy !req
277. you'd be getting $50.
Copy !req
278. Well, Max, it's been a pleasure.
Copy !req
279. Elton, please, before you go,
Copy !req
280. would you mind autographing
your new CD The Big Picture for me?
Copy !req
281. - Of course.
- Do you happen to have one on you?
Copy !req
282. I'm not the sort of artist
that goes around carrying his own CD...
Copy !req
283. but look at here.
Copy !req
284. And do you need one for an aunt, maybe?
Copy !req
285. Or an optician?
Copy !req
286. - Thank you.
- Elton, David. Good luck with the film.
Copy !req
287. And about that show of yours, Max.
Sounds great. Let's talk Tuesday.
Copy !req
288. - Wonderful, wonderful.
- Bye-bye, nice meeting you.
Copy !req
289. Wow, wow, wow.
Copy !req
290. That went very well.
Copy !req
291. I'm telling you, Maxwell Sheffield.
I am good for you.
Copy !req
292. So, I take it there's gonna be
a second date?
Copy !req
293. You bet.
Copy !req
294. Elton forgot to autograph the CDs!
Copy !req
295. Elton. Elton!
Copy !req
296. Yoo-hoo!
Copy !req
297. Now would you sign one
for my sister-in-law Frieda?
Copy !req
298. And one for Hadassah, Rego Park.
Copy !req
299. And just a few generic, "Glenn Close."
Copy !req
300. I'll fill in the greetings.
Copy !req
301. Would you like a sour ball?
Copy !req
