1. Hello, neighbor.
Copy !req
2. It's so good to see you again today.
Copy !req
3. Did you see the...?
Copy !req
4. What special thing I brought in to show you?
Copy !req
5. It's called a picture board.
Copy !req
6. Because behind each one
of these little doors...
Copy !req
7. is a picture of people.
Copy !req
8. Lady Aberlin.
Copy !req
9. Let's see who's behind this door.
Copy !req
10. Here's King Friday XIII.
Copy !req
11. With his crown and...
Copy !req
12. mustache and beard.
Copy !req
13. Who's behind here?
Copy !req
14. Oh, it's Mr. McFeely.
Copy !req
15. He always says, "Speedy delivery,"
doesn't he?
Copy !req
16. I'd like you to meet a new friend of mine.
Copy !req
17. His name is Lloyd Vogel.
Copy !req
18. Someone has hurt my friend Lloyd.
Copy !req
19. And not just on his face.
Copy !req
20. He is having a hard time forgiving
Copy !req
21. the person who hurt him.
Copy !req
22. Do you...? Do you know what that means?
Copy !req
23. To forgive?
Copy !req
24. It's a decision we make...
Copy !req
25. to release a person...
Copy !req
26. from the feelings of anger we have at them.
Copy !req
27. It's strange, but sometimes...
Copy !req
28. it's hardest of all
to forgive someone we love.
Copy !req
29. Let's say hello to my new friend, Lloyd.
Copy !req
30. Shall we?
Copy !req
31. Here to present this year's award
for feature writing...
Copy !req
32. last year's winner, Lloyd Vogel.
Copy !req
33. Thank you.
Copy !req
34. It's so wonderful to be among so many
of my fellow misfits tonight.
Copy !req
35. So...
Copy !req
36. why do we write for magazines for a living?
Copy !req
37. Honestly, because doing anything else
doesn't seem quite like living at all.
Copy !req
38. We get a front-row seat to history.
Copy !req
39. We get to expose the truth
that others cannot see.
Copy !req
40. And sometimes,
Copy !req
41. just sometimes,
Copy !req
42. we get to change a broken world
with our words.
Copy !req
43. Mmm. Thank you.
Copy !req
44. I needed this.
Copy !req
45. I ate a block of cheese for dinner.
Copy !req
46. - Heh, heh.
- So, what are we forgetting?
Copy !req
47. You definitely need more diapers.
Copy !req
48. More than this?
We're going to Jersey for one night.
Copy !req
49. We go through at least 12 a day.
Copy !req
50. - We do?
- Mm-hm.
Copy !req
51. What are you feeding that kid?
Copy !req
52. Would it be easier
if we left him with a sitter?
Copy !req
53. I'm not ready to leave him with a stranger.
Copy !req
54. Okay? He's too little.
Copy !req
55. Yeah.
Copy !req
56. - Hey, your sister called last night.
- Mm-hm.
Copy !req
57. She wanted to make sure
you wrote your toast.
Copy !req
58. Oh, I'm all set.
Copy !req
59. I'm gonna use my speech
from her first wedding.
Copy !req
60. - Or maybe her second.
- Oh, yeah.
Copy !req
61. - Just change the names.
- Yeah.
Copy !req
62. And she wanted me to tell you something.
Copy !req
63. Okay.
Copy !req
64. Your father's coming.
Copy !req
65. I guess she reached out to him
a couple months ago and he didn't respond,
Copy !req
66. but then he called,
and now he's coming to the wedding.
Copy !req
67. Ohh.
Copy !req
68. Are you okay?
Copy !req
69. Yeah, I'm fine.
Copy !req
70. But I don't think we should go.
Copy !req
71. - Lloyd.
- What?
Copy !req
72. Seriously, why have a baby if you can't
use him to get out of social obligations?
Copy !req
73. This is what Lorraine was afraid of,
that you would back out.
Copy !req
74. I'm kidding. I'm not gonna miss her wedding.
Copy !req
75. I look forward to them every year.
Copy !req
76. Okay.
Copy !req
77. I think it'll be nice
for Gavin to meet his grandfather.
Copy !req
78. Ha, ha.
Copy !req
79. Sure.
Copy !req
80. Damn it!
Copy !req
81. Daddy's just being funny.
Daddy's being funny.
Copy !req
82. It's impossible.
Copy !req
83. Here.
Copy !req
84. Take him. Here.
Copy !req
85. There.
Copy !req
86. Great.
Copy !req
87. He looks terrified.
Copy !req
88. He should be. He's marrying Lorraine.
Copy !req
89. - Oh, my God, you look beautiful.
- Absolutely.
Copy !req
90. I'm 10 pounds short of my target weight,
but whatever.
Copy !req
91. - Lloyd, the brother.
- I know, man.
Copy !req
92. - I'm Todd. You know, the husband.
- Yeah.
Copy !req
93. And look at you, you little peanut.
Copy !req
94. - I don't think we're having any kids.
- How did that happen?
Copy !req
95. I invited him and he came.
Copy !req
96. To walk you down the aisle? Really?
Copy !req
97. He offered. He missed the first two.
I thought, "Why the hell not?"
Copy !req
98. I can think of a few reasons why.
Copy !req
99. He's old.
Copy !req
100. And if he's gonna try to make an effort...
Copy !req
101. Oh, I guess it's time we get this started.
Copy !req
102. So, in lieu of the typical
father-of-the-bride speech,
Copy !req
103. I thought I'd, well...
Copy !req
104. I'd like to sing a little ditty.
Copy !req
105. Now, this one's for my Lorraine.
Copy !req
106. And for you too.
Copy !req
107. What's his name again?
Copy !req
108. For Todd.
Copy !req
109. Yeah.
Copy !req
110. Admit it, now you wish we hadn't eloped.
Copy !req
111. He's drunk.
Copy !req
112. Yeah, well, he can sing.
Copy !req
113. Well, here we are...
Copy !req
114. in the pearl of the Garden State, huh?
Copy !req
115. Hello, Jerry.
Copy !req
116. Oh, come on.
You don't have to call me Jerry.
Copy !req
117. Or call me Jerry, I don't care.
Copy !req
118. And hello to you.
Copy !req
119. Hi. I'm Andrea, Lloyd's wife.
Copy !req
120. Andrea! Of course.
Copy !req
121. What a...
Copy !req
122. unique pleasure.
Copy !req
123. And hello, little fella.
Copy !req
124. And this is Gavin.
Copy !req
125. What a handsome man.
Copy !req
126. You look just like me.
Copy !req
127. Yeah, let's get a drink, huh?
Copy !req
128. What's this stuff, pop?
Copy !req
129. Oh, this stuff will kill you.
Copy !req
130. I'm just giving my toast,
then we're leaving, so...
Copy !req
131. Doll?
Copy !req
132. Could you give us a moment?
Copy !req
133. She's... She's not a doll.
Copy !req
134. She's a public interest attorney.
Copy !req
135. Is there money in that?
Copy !req
136. You know what? We're gonna circulate, okay?
Copy !req
137. You got a baby.
Copy !req
138. And a wife.
Copy !req
139. You happy?
Copy !req
140. - I'm happy.
- Yeah.
Copy !req
141. Well, she seems nice enough.
Copy !req
142. But, ha, ha, I mean, aren't you a little old
to have a baby, huh?
Copy !req
143. I'm not that old.
Copy !req
144. You're smart.
Copy !req
145. Your mom and I hardly knew each other
when she got pregnant.
Copy !req
146. But we were babies, huh?
Copy !req
147. Don't talk about her.
Copy !req
148. Ohh. Whoa, whoa. Wait a minute.
You don't know the whole story.
Copy !req
149. - Your mom really was not the saint...
- Don't talk about my mom!
Copy !req
150. - What are you doing?
- Get off me!
Copy !req
151. - Hey!
- Come on, man, what are you doing?
Copy !req
152. Come on.
Copy !req
153. What the hell?
Copy !req
154. - You didn't hear him.
- You were out of control.
Copy !req
155. He was out of control.
Copy !req
156. You're just not gonna take responsibility
for any of this?
Copy !req
157. Of course I am. I offered
to pay for Lorraine's dry cleaning.
Copy !req
158. Have you ever felt the way Lloyd does?
Copy !req
159. So angry you want to hurt someone?
Copy !req
160. Or yourself?
Copy !req
161. I know I have.
Copy !req
162. When I was a boy, I was very chubby.
Copy !req
163. And the other kids would chase me
Copy !req
164. and call me names,
Copy !req
165. like Fat Freddy.
Copy !req
166. It made me very sad.
Copy !req
167. Sometimes, when I was by myself,
Copy !req
168. I would cry.
Copy !req
169. And other times,
Copy !req
170. it made me very angry.
Copy !req
171. There is always something you can do
Copy !req
172. with the mad that you feel.
Copy !req
173. Did you hear that?
Copy !req
174. Someone is at my door.
Copy !req
175. Let's go see who it is.
Copy !req
176. It's Mr. McFeely.
Copy !req
177. Speedy delivery.
Copy !req
178. Look. It's a magazine.
Copy !req
179. Thank you.
Copy !req
180. Magazines are always so full
of interesting information.
Copy !req
181. They sure are.
Copy !req
182. My friend Lloyd works for a magazine.
He is a very wonderful writer.
Copy !req
183. That reminds me, I have a video I found.
Copy !req
184. And I thought you and your neighbor
may like to see it.
Copy !req
185. What is it?
Copy !req
186. It's about how people make a magazine.
Copy !req
187. It's called "How People Make a Magazine."
Copy !req
188. I know lots of people like magazines, so
I thought you might find this interesting.
Copy !req
189. I think we would.
Do you have time to show it to us now?
Copy !req
190. Well, I'd be glad to see it again.
Copy !req
191. Let's look at it on Picture Picture.
Copy !req
192. We'll watch it on Picture Picture...
Copy !req
193. and see how people make...
Copy !req
194. a magazine.
Copy !req
195. This is the ink they use in the
printing press that prints the magazines.
Copy !req
196. Yellow ink.
Copy !req
197. It looks like mustard. Heh, heh.
Copy !req
198. And these are large rolls of blank paper
Copy !req
199. that are getting loaded into the machine.
Copy !req
200. I wonder how many magazines they can make
Copy !req
201. out of one of those large rolls.
Copy !req
202. They print the magazines
in giant sheets, one color at a time.
Copy !req
203. This machine assembles the magazine
Copy !req
204. and glues it all together.
Copy !req
205. Oh, now, who's this?
Copy !req
206. These are the people who decide
what will be in the magazine.
Copy !req
207. They pick the pictures
and design the layout.
Copy !req
208. Oh, that's an importantjob.
Copy !req
209. And these are the people
who write the words that go into a magazine.
Copy !req
210. It's a lot of work
to make a magazine, isn't it?
Copy !req
211. It certainly is.
Copy !req
212. - Yeah?
- Pay no attention to my face.
Copy !req
213. Softball injury. Nothing to worry about.
Good morning, Ellen. How are you?
Copy !req
214. Well, this should be interesting.
Copy !req
215. - What should?
- Sending you on an assignment
Copy !req
216. with your face all busted up.
Copy !req
217. - An assignment?
- Yep.
Copy !req
218. You're the perfect person for it.
Copy !req
219. - You just had a baby.
- Why are you giving me an assignment?
Copy !req
220. We're doing an issue on heroes,
Copy !req
221. and we're profiling
a number of inspirational people.
Copy !req
222. We just need a small piece of copy
to accompany a pretty photo.
Copy !req
223. You hired me as an investigative journalist.
I don't do puff pieces.
Copy !req
224. Wait a second. Didn't I hire you
to do whatever I tell you to do?
Copy !req
225. And right now that's doing a profile
on one of our nation's heroes.
Copy !req
226. Who?
Copy !req
227. Mister Rogers.
Copy !req
228. As in the hokey kids' show guy?
Copy !req
229. As in the beloved
children's television host, yes.
Copy !req
230. Look, I...
Copy !req
231. I think this could help you, Lloyd, just...
Copy !req
232. start to change your image.
Copy !req
233. I don't need to change my image.
Copy !req
234. Okay.
Copy !req
235. Ellen?
Copy !req
236. He was the only person on our list
willing to be interviewed by you.
Copy !req
237. I guess you're developing a reputation.
Copy !req
238. A reputation? People love talking to me.
Copy !req
239. Yeah, they do,
until they read what you write about them.
Copy !req
240. So, what,
I'm supposed to go easy on this guy
Copy !req
241. because he plays with puppets for a living?
Copy !req
242. Four hundred words. Play nice.
Copy !req
243. Hello. This is Lloyd Vogel,
from Esquire magazine.
Copy !req
244. I'm calling to schedule an interview with...
Copy !req
245. Mister Rogers.
Copy !req
246. Sorry about your face!
Copy !req
247. You know, I got it good too.
Copy !req
248. Look, I messed this up.
Copy !req
249. I just want to talk to you.
Copy !req
250. - We have a lot that needs to be said.
- No.
Copy !req
251. I'm not gonna be ambushed.
Copy !req
252. Come on, Lloyd!
Copy !req
253. Hi, honey.
Copy !req
254. Hi. Hi, guys.
Copy !req
255. Hi, Lloyd.
Copy !req
256. Smells in here.
Copy !req
257. Bathroom trash.
Copy !req
258. Nine different types of diapers.
Copy !req
259. Hey, Lloyd.
Copy !req
260. Hey. What are you doing over here?
Copy !req
261. I got it!
Copy !req
262. Hello?
Copy !req
263. Lloyd?
Copy !req
264. Who's this?
Copy !req
265. This is Fred Rogers.
Copy !req
266. Hi, that was quick.
Copy !req
267. Well, I figured, if you want to talk to me,
I should want to talk to you.
Copy !req
268. Yeah, I just wanted to set a time
to sit with you and ask a few questions.
Copy !req
269. I'm happy to schedule something,
except for one thing.
Copy !req
270. What's that?
Copy !req
271. You have me here right now.
Copy !req
272. Okay. Sure.
Copy !req
273. On our program,
I try to look through the camera
Copy !req
274. into the eyes of a single child...
Copy !req
275. and speak to him or her,
Copy !req
276. trying to be fully present
Copy !req
277. to their feelings and their needs.
Copy !req
278. Right.
Copy !req
279. Do you know what the most important thing
in the world is to me right now?
Copy !req
280. No.
Copy !req
281. Talking on the telephone to Lloyd Vogel.
Copy !req
282. Hey.
Copy !req
283. Hey.
Copy !req
284. You okay?
Copy !req
285. I got an assignment.
Copy !req
286. Where you going this time?
Copy !req
287. Pittsburgh.
Copy !req
288. - Tomorrow.
- Ah.
Copy !req
289. I'm profiling Mister Rogers.
Copy !req
290. Really?
Copy !req
291. Well, I love him.
Copy !req
292. You do?
Copy !req
293. Yeah.
Copy !req
294. Why?
Copy !req
295. I don't know.
Copy !req
296. Wait.
Copy !req
297. Ellen is giving you a profile?
Copy !req
298. She knows that's not what you do.
Copy !req
299. I think that's her point.
Copy !req
300. Well, can you say no?
Copy !req
301. Can you take some time
and be with us for a while?
Copy !req
302. You didn't take off any time
when Gavin was born.
Copy !req
303. Not really.
Copy !req
304. At least it's someone good.
Copy !req
305. Yeah.
Copy !req
306. We'll see.
Copy !req
307. Oh, God, Lloyd, please,
Copy !req
308. don't ruin my childhood.
Copy !req
309. - I love y'all!
- I love you too!
Copy !req
310. Hey, I'm looking for Fred Rogers.
Copy !req
311. - Who?
- Am I in the wrong place?
Copy !req
312. I know who you are. In here.
Copy !req
313. You'll get about 20 minutes with him
during the break.
Copy !req
314. I was told an hour.
Copy !req
315. You're not gonna try to fight him, are you?
Copy !req
316. Oh! Softball league. Play at the plate.
Copy !req
317. Maybe you shouldn't have led with your face.
Copy !req
318. Hi, Evan.
Copy !req
319. Sorry, guy. Could be a minute.
Copy !req
320. Is this a Make-A-Wish thing?
Copy !req
321. How we doing, Margy?
Copy !req
322. He's ruining my life.
Copy !req
323. How long?
Copy !req
324. Half hour already, which...
Copy !req
325. puts us at 73 minutes behind.
Copy !req
326. I gotta go in.
Copy !req
327. - Cover me.
- You're on your own.
Copy !req
328. color of sweater that I do.
Copy !req
329. But I can't see colors very well.
Copy !req
330. - Isn't that funny?
- Don't.
Copy !req
331. Look at that. Look at that.
Copy !req
332. I'm sorry. Son, he's talking to you.
Copy !req
333. - Okay, sweetie. Honey, honey.
- All right.
Copy !req
334. Don't do that, sweetheart.
Copy !req
335. That... That sword looks awfully sharp.
Copy !req
336. And heavy too.
Copy !req
337. - Not really.
- No?
Copy !req
338. Well, you must be very strong in order to...
Copy !req
339. hold it like that.
Copy !req
340. And I bet you are very strong
Copy !req
341. on the inside too.
Copy !req
342. Well...
Copy !req
343. Oh, I like that.
Copy !req
344. - Thank you. Yes, right.
- Terribly sorry, Fred. We need to start.
Copy !req
345. Can I...? Can I take your picture?
Copy !req
346. - Yes.
- Yes?
Copy !req
347. Everybody make sure you can see me.
Copy !req
348. Now. Thank you.
Copy !req
349. Thank you so much for coming down
and visiting us in the neighborhood.
Copy !req
350. - Folks, if you'll follow me.
- Okay.
Copy !req
351. - Thank you.
- Great job.
Copy !req
352. - You did such a good job.
- How often does this happen?
Copy !req
353. Every day.
Copy !req
354. Okay, here we go!
Copy !req
355. Everybody settle.
Copy !req
356. Quiet, please.
Copy !req
357. Roll sound.
Copy !req
358. - Sound speeds.
- Mark it.
Copy !req
359. - And... action.
- Ahem.
Copy !req
360. Do you know what this is?
Copy !req
361. It's Lloyd.
Copy !req
362. Lloyd.
Copy !req
363. Hold, please!
Copy !req
364. We can't fire him, can we?
Copy !req
365. Hello, Lloyd.
Oh, it's nice to meet you. What...?
Copy !req
366. - Are you all right?
- Play at the plate.
Copy !req
367. Mercy, that looks like it hurts.
Copy !req
368. - Let's chat afterwards.
- We need to keep moving.
Copy !req
369. Have Evan take a look at him.
Copy !req
370. - No, I'm good. I'm good.
- No, I'm sorry, Fred.
Copy !req
371. - Yeah.
- We just need to...
Copy !req
372. All right, all right.
Copy !req
373. It's wonderful to meet you.
So glad you're here.
Copy !req
374. I'm looking forward to talking with you,
I truly am.
Copy !req
375. After this.
Copy !req
376. Everyone, this is Lloyd Vogel.
He is a wonderful writer.
Copy !req
377. Thank you, Fred.
Copy !req
378. - Okay, resetting.
- Step over here.
Copy !req
379. Roll sound.
Copy !req
380. Sound speeds.
Copy !req
381. And slate.
Copy !req
382. And action.
Copy !req
383. Do you know what this is?
Copy !req
384. It's a tent.
Copy !req
385. Let's set it up.
Copy !req
386. Oh, mercy.
Copy !req
387. A little bit trickier than I thought.
Copy !req
388. This is impossible.
Copy !req
389. I can't. I can't do it.
Copy !req
390. It must...
Copy !req
391. It must take two grown-ups to set up a tent.
Copy !req
392. And that's a cut. Let's go again.
Copy !req
393. No, no, let's...
Copy !req
394. Let's look at that.
Copy !req
395. Okay, roll playback, please.
Copy !req
396. Oh, mercy.
Copy !req
397. A little bit trickier than I thought.
Copy !req
398. - We could preset the tent for you.
- No, no, no, I...
Copy !req
399. I think this is good.
Copy !req
400. Yeah.
Copy !req
401. Yeah, I think we're okay.
Copy !req
402. - Great? Good.
- Yeah.
Copy !req
403. That's lunch, everybody.
Copy !req
404. The tent.
Why didn't you let them set it up for you?
Copy !req
405. Well, children need to know
that even when adults make plans,
Copy !req
406. sometimes they don't turn out
the way we'd hoped.
Copy !req
407. Mm.
Copy !req
408. How long have you been married, Lloyd?
Copy !req
409. Eight years.
Copy !req
410. Eight year... Oh, that's...
Copy !req
411. a wonderful accomplishment.
Copy !req
412. Does your spouse have a name?
Copy !req
413. Andrea.
Copy !req
414. I would like to meet Andrea someday.
Copy !req
415. I'm sure.
Copy !req
416. You've lived in Pittsburgh your whole life?
Copy !req
417. I grew up not too far from here
in a town called Latrobe.
Copy !req
418. But we've lived here quite some time
and we've raised our boys here.
Copy !req
419. And do you think living here makes it easier
or more difficult to be a celebrity?
Copy !req
420. Uh. "Celebrity." Mercy.
Copy !req
421. You don't consider yourself famous?
Copy !req
422. "Fame" is a four-letter word,
Copy !req
423. like "tape" or "zoom" or "face."
Copy !req
424. What ultimately matters
is what we do with it.
Copy !req
425. And what are you doing with it?
Copy !req
426. We are trying to give children positive ways
Copy !req
427. to deal with their feelings.
Copy !req
428. This piece will be
for an issue about heroes.
Copy !req
429. Do you consider yourself a hero?
Copy !req
430. I don't think of myself as a hero.
Copy !req
431. No, not at all.
Copy !req
432. What about Mister Rogers? Is he a hero?
Copy !req
433. I don't understand the question.
Copy !req
434. Well, there's you, Fred,
Copy !req
435. and then there's the character you play,
Mister Rogers.
Copy !req
436. You said it was a play at the plate?
Copy !req
437. Is that...? Is that what...?
Copy !req
438. Is that what happened to you?
Copy !req
439. What did happen to you, Lloyd?
Copy !req
440. I got into a fight.
Copy !req
441. Ohh. Oh, my.
Copy !req
442. Who did you get into a fight with?
Copy !req
443. It's not important.
Copy !req
444. Jerry.
Copy !req
445. Mm. And who is Jerry?
Copy !req
446. My father.
Copy !req
447. Oh, my.
Copy !req
448. I'd rather not talk about it.
Copy !req
449. Well, what were you and your father
fighting about?
Copy !req
450. I'm here to interview you, Mister Rogers.
Copy !req
451. Well, that is what we're doing, isn't it?
Copy !req
452. We're ready for you in Studio B, Fred.
Copy !req
453. Okay, Margy.
Copy !req
454. - I thought we had 20 minutes.
- Can I take your picture?
Copy !req
455. I like to take pictures
of people that I meet.
Copy !req
456. Then I can show them to Joanne later on.
Copy !req
457. Thank you so much.
Copy !req
458. I do hope you'll stick around. I really do.
Copy !req
459. That's...? That's it?
Copy !req
460. Is it ready?
Copy !req
461. Daniel, you set?
Copy !req
462. I'm set!
Copy !req
463. Thank you, Daniel.
Copy !req
464. Did she just talk to the puppet?
Copy !req
465. Daniel isn't just a puppet.
Copy !req
466. Daniel is Fred, and Fred is Daniel.
Copy !req
467. - You mean...
- Please stop talking.
Copy !req
468. - Let me know when you're ready, Lady.
- Okay. Thank you.
Copy !req
469. And trolley.
Copy !req
470. Action.
Copy !req
471. Well, hello, Lady Aberlin.
Copy !req
472. Hi, Daniel.
Copy !req
473. Are you making that funny smell?
Copy !req
474. Do you mean that skunk kind of smell? No.
Copy !req
475. I'm trying to help that smell go away.
Copy !req
476. By squirting another smell?
Copy !req
477. That's right. A sweet-smelling smell.
Copy !req
478. - Want to smell?
- Okay.
Copy !req
479. - Mmm.
- Ahh.
Copy !req
480. - That does smell good.
- Mm-hm.
Copy !req
481. Where did that bad smell come from?
Copy !req
482. Mr. Skunk.
Copy !req
483. He got scared,
Copy !req
484. and he just sprayed this smell all over me.
Copy !req
485. Oh, no. Did he say he was sorry?
Copy !req
486. No.
Copy !req
487. And that just makes me...
Copy !req
488. so very mad,
Copy !req
489. and I don't know what to do.
Copy !req
490. Oh, Daniel.
Copy !req
491. Thank you, Lady Aberlin.
Copy !req
492. Thank you, Daniel.
Copy !req
493. I... I feel better.
Copy !req
494. I'm so glad.
Copy !req
495. I don't know if he's for real.
Copy !req
496. That's not for you to say, Lloyd.
Copy !req
497. I think with a few more interviews...
- No, no, no, I told you.
Copy !req
498. This isn't an exposé, okay?
Copy !req
499. Just put pen to paper.
A couple funny anecdotes.
Copy !req
500. Keep it simple.
Copy !req
501. I can't do that, Ellen.
He's a lot more complex than I thought.
Copy !req
502. He's a children's entertainer.
Copy !req
503. He's Mister-freaking-Rogers.
Copy !req
504. This isn't Mikhail Gorbachev
we're talking about.
Copy !req
505. I don't think you understand
what you're asking of me.
Copy !req
506. I'm asking you to do your job.
Copy !req
507. Now, get out and come back to me
when you have your first draft.
Copy !req
508. Now...
Copy !req
509. this gives new meaning to Boyz n the Hood!
Copy !req
510. We'll be back with Mister Rogers!
Copy !req
511. We all grew up with you...
Copy !req
512. - Hey.
- Hi.
Copy !req
513. I see things going on out there,
kind of worries me.
Copy !req
514. I wish more people would...
Copy !req
515. How'd it go?
Copy !req
516. He's just about the nicest person
I've ever met.
Copy !req
517. When you say it,
it doesn't sound like a compliment.
Copy !req
518. There is... There's an attitude out there.
Copy !req
519. There's some things going on.
A lot of hopelessness.
Copy !req
520. What do we need to do?
Copy !req
521. There's no simple answers, of course,
Copy !req
522. but if we could,
through television programs,
Copy !req
523. as well as every other imaginable program,
Copy !req
524. let people know
that each one of us is precious.
Copy !req
525. It all starts in the home. We can
never underrate how important that is.
Copy !req
526. I don't think anybody can grow
unless he really is accepted
Copy !req
527. exactly as he is.
Copy !req
528. If somebody is always saying to a child,
"Oh, you're... You're going to grow up
Copy !req
529. and you're... You're going to be fine."
Copy !req
530. There's so much of that
in this country already.
Copy !req
531. It's your turn.
Copy !req
532. - Yeah.
- And so a child is appreciated
Copy !req
533. for what he will be and not for what he is.
Copy !req
534. "He will be a great consumer someday.
Copy !req
535. And so the quicker
we can get them out of the nest
Copy !req
536. so they can go out and buy,
then the better."
Copy !req
537. What do you think is the biggest mistakes
parents make in raising their children?
Copy !req
538. - Not to remember their own childhood.
- Yeah?
Copy !req
539. I think that the best thing
that we can do is to...
Copy !req
540. think about what it was like for us
Copy !req
541. and know what our children
are going through.
Copy !req
542. But you know what?
It's so hard once you get to be a parent.
Copy !req
543. You always say, "I will never do this,"
when your parents are doing it to you.
Copy !req
544. You say, "I will never do this to my child."
Copy !req
545. And then you get to our age
Copy !req
546. and you forget what it was like
to be this size.
Copy !req
547. You really do forget.
Copy !req
548. Well, but those children
can help re-evoke what it was like.
Copy !req
549. That's why, when you're a parent,
you have a new chance to grow.
Copy !req
550. You do.
Copy !req
551. Did you ever...? I can't imagine...
I know that you are the father of two boys,
Copy !req
552. but I can't imagine you
ever having a problem with your children.
Copy !req
553. - You ever have any?
- Well, of course.
Copy !req
554. I'm a human being just like everybody else.
Copy !req
555. I thought you would just talk to them
and say:
Copy !req
556. "Can you say, 'Good morning?'"
And they would change. Heh, heh.
Copy !req
557. But, you know,
a lot of people do those parodies, just...
Copy !req
558. Lloyd, hello.
Copy !req
559. I can stop, stop, stop anytime.
Copy !req
560. Son, what were you afraid of?
Copy !req
561. Oh, no, Lloyd.
Copy !req
562. Meow, meow.
Copy !req
563. If they get a divorce
or if they don't get a divorce,
Copy !req
564. they'll still be your mom and dad.
Copy !req
565. Speedy Delivery.
Copy !req
566. Hello?
Copy !req
567. Oh, my. I woke you. Is this Andrea?
Copy !req
568. Yes.
Copy !req
569. This is Fred Rogers.
Copy !req
570. - Oh. Hi.
- Who is it?
Copy !req
571. Lloyd's right here.
Copy !req
572. No, Andrea, while I have you,
Copy !req
573. I just want to thank you so much
for sharing Lloyd with us.
Copy !req
574. Can't be easy,
him traveling with Gavin at home.
Copy !req
575. Oh, well, thank you for saying that.
Copy !req
576. I'm gonna give Lloyd to you now.
Copy !req
577. Mister Rogers knows my name.
Copy !req
578. This is Lloyd.
Copy !req
579. You left without getting to say goodbye.
Copy !req
580. So I'm glad we get to continue to talk.
I'm going to New York City today to film.
Copy !req
581. And Joanne is coming with me,
Copy !req
582. and we thought
you might like to come down and say hello.
Copy !req
583. Um...
Copy !req
584. How much time do you think
I'll have with him today?
Copy !req
585. You're here because Fred wants you here.
Copy !req
586. Honored.
Copy !req
587. He likes everybody,
but he loves people like you.
Copy !req
588. People like me?
Copy !req
589. I've read your work.
Copy !req
590. You don't really care for humanity, do you?
Copy !req
591. I'm just doing my job.
Copy !req
592. I insisted he read you before we agreed.
Copy !req
593. And did he?
Copy !req
594. Every article we could find.
Copy !req
595. Oh, thank you, thank you.
Copy !req
596. That made me want to get up
and do a little dance.
Copy !req
597. We have a surprise for you, Mister Rogers.
Copy !req
598. We're gonna play one of your songs
called "You Are Special."
Copy !req
599. Well, how wonderful.
Copy !req
600. But how do you play your instruments
without your bows?
Copy !req
601. Well, we can play pizzicato,
Copy !req
602. which means we're going to pluck
the strings with our fingers.
Copy !req
603. Oh.
Copy !req
604. One, two, three, one, two.
Copy !req
605. - Hello, everybody. Hi.
- Hi.
Copy !req
606. How nice to see you all.
How nice to see you.
Copy !req
607. - Heh, heh.
- Lovely to meet you.
Copy !req
608. I call this move the "handshake handoff."
Copy !req
609. - I love your show.
- Thank you for coming.
Copy !req
610. That's quite a skill.
Copy !req
611. We stole Bill from the governor's office
14 years ago.
Copy !req
612. You got a chance to know him yet?
Copy !req
613. Love Bill. Big fan.
Copy !req
614. He is very protective of Rog.
Copy !req
615. You call him "Rog"?
Copy !req
616. We don't call him Mister Rogers at home,
dear.
Copy !req
617. - Joanne Rogers.
- Oh, nice to meet you.
Copy !req
618. You as well, dear.
Copy !req
619. So how does it feel
to be married to a living saint?
Copy !req
620. You know, I'm not fond of that term.
Copy !req
621. If you think of him as a saint,
Copy !req
622. then his way of being is unattainable.
Copy !req
623. You know, he works at it all the time.
It's a practice.
Copy !req
624. He's not a perfect person.
Copy !req
625. He has a temper.
Copy !req
626. He chooses how he responds to that anger.
Copy !req
627. That must take a lot of effort.
Copy !req
628. Well, yeah, he... He does things every day
that help to ground him.
Copy !req
629. Read Scripture, swims laps,
Copy !req
630. prays for people by name.
Copy !req
631. Writes letters, hundreds of them.
He's been doing that since I met him.
Copy !req
632. - Thank you so much, so much.
- You be good.
Copy !req
633. - Bye, Mister Rogers.
- Thanks, folks.
Copy !req
634. - Thank you.
- Thank you, folks, for coming out.
Copy !req
635. - My love.
- Bye, my love.
Copy !req
636. - We'll see you in just a few hours or so.
- Yes. Just have a good time.
Copy !req
637. Lloyd, I thought you and I
would spend some time talking.
Copy !req
638. - Oh, of course.
- Weren't those ladies spectacular?
Copy !req
639. - Incredible.
- Just marvelous.
Copy !req
640. You know,
I found out about them through Joanne...
Copy !req
641. Do you always take the subway?
Copy !req
642. Well, Joanne and I have an apartment.
Copy !req
643. It's just a few stops away,
Copy !req
644. and it's... It's the easiest way
to get around sometimes.
Copy !req
645. So...
Copy !req
646. you've covered some heavy stuff,
Copy !req
647. especially for a show aimed at children.
Copy !req
648. I'm glad you've had the chance
to view the program.
Copy !req
649. Death, divorce, war. It gets dark.
Copy !req
650. You know...
Copy !req
651. Maggie Stewart showed me
the most beautiful word in sign language.
Copy !req
652. You know what that means? It means "friend."
Copy !req
653. Isn't that perfect?
Copy !req
654. Who's Maggie Stewart?
Copy !req
655. - Do it.
- Hey, Mister Rogers!
Copy !req
656. It's a beautiful...
Copy !req
657. That was wonderful.
Copy !req
658. It seems like all these people line up
Copy !req
659. to tell you their problems.
Copy !req
660. Isn't it wonderful?
Copy !req
661. Such bravery?
Copy !req
662. Well...
Copy !req
663. it seems like that would be
an incredible burden on you.
Copy !req
664. Well, I'm grateful
for you saying that, Lloyd.
Copy !req
665. I'm grateful for your compassion.
Copy !req
666. Is it? A burden on you?
Copy !req
667. Okay, let's assume it's a burden on you.
Copy !req
668. There... There is no normal life
that is free from pain.
Copy !req
669. How do you deal with it?
Copy !req
670. Oh, well, there are many ways you can deal
with your feelings without hurting yourself
Copy !req
671. or anybody else.
Copy !req
672. Yeah, like...? Like what?
Copy !req
673. Well, you can pound a lump of clay...
Copy !req
674. or swim as fast as you can swim
Copy !req
675. or play the lowest keys on a piano
all at the same time.
Copy !req
676. Do you ever talk to anyone
about the burden you carry?
Copy !req
677. Would you like to meet
my special puppet friends
Copy !req
678. from the Neighborhood of Make-Believe?
Copy !req
679. They look like they've seen better days.
Copy !req
680. Well, they...
They've been with me for quite a while.
Copy !req
681. You ever think about swapping them out?
Getting new ones?
Copy !req
682. Didn't you have a special friend
when you were very young, Lloyd?
Copy !req
683. A special friend?
Copy !req
684. Yeah, a special toy.
Copy !req
685. Or a...
Copy !req
686. A stuffed animal that you loved very much,
Copy !req
687. even as it got ratty and worn out
and made you just love it all the more?
Copy !req
688. I don't know. I'm sure I did.
Copy !req
689. Can you tell me about your special friend?
Copy !req
690. Think I had a rabbit.
Copy !req
691. Did your rabbit have a name?
Copy !req
692. Just "Rabbit."
Copy !req
693. It was "Old Rabbit."
Copy !req
694. And who gave you Old Rabbit?
Copy !req
695. My mom.
Copy !req
696. She must love you very much.
Copy !req
697. That she did.
She... She died when I was young.
Copy !req
698. I'm sure that if she saw you today,
Copy !req
699. the person you have become,
Copy !req
700. she would be proud of you.
Copy !req
701. I want to get back to my questions.
Copy !req
702. You wanted to meet my special friends
from the Neighborhood of Make-Believe.
Copy !req
703. No, I asked you about the burden you carry.
Copy !req
704. I am King Friday XIII.
Copy !req
705. Lloyd Vogel, the journalist, I presume.
Copy !req
706. And here's Daniel Striped Tiger.
Copy !req
707. Now, sometimes Daniel is too shy to talk,
but...
Copy !req
708. But that's okay, Daniel.
Copy !req
709. Have you met Daniel?
Copy !req
710. Not officially, no.
Copy !req
711. I'd like to meet Old Rabbit.
Copy !req
712. I don't want to talk about Old Rabbit,
I got to say.
Copy !req
713. Well, maybe Lloyd
doesn't feel like talking today, Daniel.
Copy !req
714. And... And that's okay.
Copy !req
715. Can you put the puppet down, Fred?
Copy !req
716. You stopped making the show
in the mid-'70s for three years.
Copy !req
717. Why'd you quit?
Copy !req
718. Well, at that point, I felt the program had
covered all the major facets of childhood.
Copy !req
719. And what brought you back? Money?
Copy !req
720. Boredom?
Copy !req
721. My sons had grown into teenagers
and we were struggling.
Copy !req
722. We all were, and...
Copy !req
723. I realized then that there was still
so much more to talk about.
Copy !req
724. I can't imagine it was easy...
Copy !req
725. growing up with you as a father.
Copy !req
726. Until recently,
my oldest never told people about me.
Copy !req
727. He's very private and that's okay.
Copy !req
728. And my youngest son, he...
Copy !req
729. He genuinely tested me.
Copy !req
730. But, eventually, we found our way,
and now I'm very proud of both of them.
Copy !req
731. But you are right, Lloyd.
Copy !req
732. It couldn't have been easy on them.
Copy !req
733. Thank you.
Copy !req
734. Thank you for that perspective.
Copy !req
735. You're welcome.
Copy !req
736. Is that not the answer you were hoping for?
Copy !req
737. Being a parent
does not mean being a perfect parent?
Copy !req
738. You might be experiencing some of that now
with your son.
Copy !req
739. And...
Copy !req
740. I've been thinking a lot
about you and your father.
Copy !req
741. Did you work out your disagreement?
Copy !req
742. This is ridiculous.
Copy !req
743. - Lloyd, where are you going?
- We're done. Thanks. Been a real pleasure.
Copy !req
744. Mercy.
Copy !req
745. Heh, heh. He's so quiet with you.
Copy !req
746. I'm good with babies.
Copy !req
747. Aren't I?
Copy !req
748. Hey, hey!
Copy !req
749. Come on, sit down.
We... We cooked you some takeout.
Copy !req
750. They brought pizza.
Copy !req
751. Lloyd, this is Dorothy.
Copy !req
752. Hello.
Copy !req
753. Can't you just say hello?
Copy !req
754. Where's your manners?
Copy !req
755. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
756. I think we should go.
Copy !req
757. I had an idea, okay?
Copy !req
758. Maybe we'd eat some food,
we'd talk like people.
Copy !req
759. I messed things up at the wedding.
Copy !req
760. Of course, you know, you didn't help, but...
Copy !req
761. I get it.
Copy !req
762. And you let me sit out there in my car
on the street for two nights...
Copy !req
763. like I'm homeless,
like I'm some kind of a bum.
Copy !req
764. - Jerry, you're not helping.
- Well, he won't say a word.
Copy !req
765. You came here to introduce me to her?
Copy !req
766. Yeah.
Copy !req
767. To Dorothy.
Copy !req
768. Hi, Dorothy.
Copy !req
769. Hi, Lloyd.
Copy !req
770. Okay, you did what you came here to do.
Now I want you to leave.
Copy !req
771. Lloyd.
Copy !req
772. I may never come back here.
Copy !req
773. So, please, listen to me.
Copy !req
774. Dorothy and I have been together and in love
for 15 years.
Copy !req
775. He left as soon as Mom got sick.
Copy !req
776. Did you know that?
Couldn't even wait for her to die.
Copy !req
777. She really didn't want me there.
Copy !req
778. Because you were sleeping around
while she was dying.
Copy !req
779. I know.
Copy !req
780. I know it!
Copy !req
781. Took me years to get myself together.
Copy !req
782. Dorothy's why I'm standing here.
Copy !req
783. She helped me grow the hell up!
Copy !req
784. You know what they tell you about people
when they're dying?
Copy !req
785. They tell you it's peaceful,
that they just slip away.
Copy !req
786. Mom screamed... when she went.
Did you know that?
Copy !req
787. She screamed until she passed out.
Copy !req
788. And then they came in and revived her,
and she went right back to it.
Copy !req
789. It was just me, Lorraine and the nurses.
Copy !req
790. Sign the paperwork, pack up the house,
put her in the ground.
Copy !req
791. - Jerry?
- Come on, Lloyd.
Copy !req
792. Oh, God, myjaw.
Copy !req
793. Jerry?
Copy !req
794. Jerry.
Copy !req
795. Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
Copy !req
796. I'll call 911. Lloyd, do something!
Copy !req
797. Just breathe. Breathe. Look at me.
Copy !req
798. - Hello?
- I'm right here.
Copy !req
799. Yes, we have a man who's collapsed.
Copy !req
800. Yeah, we don't know.
I don't... Is he breathing?
Copy !req
801. - Yeah.
- He's breathing. Yes. He's breathing.
Copy !req
802. It may be a heart attack.
Copy !req
803. Lloyd, do something!
Copy !req
804. The cardiac MRI revealed
more extensive stenosis than we thought.
Copy !req
805. An operation at this time,
the risk of infection alone...
Copy !req
806. You ready to sleep?
Copy !req
807. Had enough? You good?
Copy !req
808. Okay, come on.
Copy !req
809. Know anything?
Copy !req
810. I hate hospitals.
Copy !req
811. You should go home and get him to bed.
Copy !req
812. No.
Copy !req
813. I don't want to leave you here.
Copy !req
814. I'm not staying here.
Copy !req
815. Okay.
Copy !req
816. Let's all go together.
Copy !req
817. No, I have to go to Pittsburgh.
Copy !req
818. - Right now?
- Yeah, I have to work.
Copy !req
819. With your dad like this?
Copy !req
820. I have a deadline.
Copy !req
821. I'm sure Ellen would understand
if you tell her what's happening.
Copy !req
822. I don't want to. I... I wanna go
to Pittsburgh. I wanna do my job.
Copy !req
823. - This shouldn't be a surprise to you.
- Hey, don't talk to me like that.
Copy !req
824. You seem to think
that now that we have a kid,
Copy !req
825. I shouldn't care about all the things
I have always cared about
Copy !req
826. because you don't anymore.
Copy !req
827. I still care about my work.
Copy !req
828. I have never asked you
to stop caring about your work.
Copy !req
829. - I've gotta go.
- Why?
Copy !req
830. Everyone who's important
is in this hospital right now.
Copy !req
831. Can't you be on my side?
Copy !req
832. For once?
Copy !req
833. You used to be on my side.
Copy !req
834. I am telling you this
because I am on your side.
Copy !req
835. Now is not the time to go to work.
Copy !req
836. I've... I've gotta go
if I'm gonna make Pittsburgh by morning.
Copy !req
837. Fine. I'm gonna go sit with your family
while you go.
Copy !req
838. Pittsburgh?
Copy !req
839. - Lloyd, there you are.
- I... I need to talk to Fred.
Copy !req
840. Very funny, mister.
Get over there. We're ready to shoot.
Copy !req
841. Right this way.
Copy !req
842. Come here.
Copy !req
843. - Quiet, please.
- What? What am I doing here?
Copy !req
844. Well, you're in this episode, of course.
Just wait there.
Copy !req
845. - Roll sound.
- Sound speeds.
Copy !req
846. - What...?
- And slate.
Copy !req
847. And action!
Copy !req
848. Oh, it's my good friend, Lloyd.
Copy !req
849. Lloyd Vogel. You remember Lloyd.
Copy !req
850. Fred, I don't understand what's going on.
Can we stop? Can we stop?
Copy !req
851. Are...? Are you feeling unwell, Lloyd?
Copy !req
852. Stop asking me questions.
I ask you the questions.
Copy !req
853. On today's program,
I thought we would talk about hospitals.
Copy !req
854. Sometimes, when somebody is sick,
Copy !req
855. they have to go to a hospital.
Copy !req
856. I hate hospitals.
Copy !req
857. A hospital is a place where people go.
Copy !req
858. Okay.
Copy !req
859. Would you like to pretend
you're in a hospital?
Copy !req
860. No!
Copy !req
861. - Hello, Old Rabbit.
- What?
Copy !req
862. Old Rabbit, I presume.
Copy !req
863. I'm not... I don't... Where's...? Where's Fred?
Copy !req
864. I've been waiting to meet you, Old Rabbit.
Copy !req
865. I'm so happy you came for a visit.
Copy !req
866. Hello, Lady Aberlin.
Copy !req
867. Well, hello.
Copy !req
868. Hello, Old Rabbit.
Copy !req
869. - Oh, my God.
- We were discussing hospitals.
Copy !req
870. Well, a hospital is where you go
when your body is hurt.
Copy !req
871. But what do you do
when your feelings are hurt?
Copy !req
872. Why, you talk about them.
Copy !req
873. Go ahead, try saying:
Copy !req
874. I like you.
Copy !req
875. I'm sad.
Copy !req
876. When did you become angry?
Copy !req
877. Do you remember?
Copy !req
878. Did something happen?
Copy !req
879. Hey, peanut.
Copy !req
880. Hi, Mom.
Copy !req
881. I know you think you're doing this for me...
Copy !req
882. holding on to this anger.
Copy !req
883. I don't need it.
Copy !req
884. Lloyd?
Copy !req
885. Lloyd?
Copy !req
886. - What happened?
- I don't know.
Copy !req
887. - He just... He just collapsed.
- Is he okay?
Copy !req
888. - Can somebody get...?
- I'll get help.
Copy !req
889. Turn.
Copy !req
890. Oh, good.
Copy !req
891. You're awake.
Copy !req
892. Oh, my goodness. If I knew you were there,
I would have stopped all this noise.
Copy !req
893. No, no, no, that was... It was beautiful.
Copy !req
894. Now, you must be very hungry, Lloyd.
Let me get my jacket, and we'll go out.
Copy !req
895. I... I should go.
Copy !req
896. Oh, no, no. Nonsense, nonsense.
Copy !req
897. Oh, look at this. Thank you so much.
Copy !req
898. Enjoy.
Copy !req
899. - Thank you.
- Thank you.
Copy !req
900. Are you a vegetarian?
Copy !req
901. I just can't imagine eating...
Copy !req
902. anything with a mother.
Copy !req
903. Bill was right.
Copy !req
904. You...
Copy !req
905. love people like me.
Copy !req
906. What are people like you?
Copy !req
907. I've never met anyone like you
in my entire life.
Copy !req
908. Broken people.
Copy !req
909. I don't think you are broken.
Copy !req
910. I know you are a man of conviction.
Copy !req
911. A person who knows the difference
between what is wrong and what is right.
Copy !req
912. Try to remember
that your relationship with your father...
Copy !req
913. also helped to shape those parts.
Copy !req
914. He helped you become what you are.
Copy !req
915. Would you do something with me, Lloyd?
Copy !req
916. It's an exercise I like to do sometimes.
Copy !req
917. We'll just take a minute
Copy !req
918. and think about all the people
who loved us into being.
Copy !req
919. I... I can't do that.
Copy !req
920. They will come to you.
Copy !req
921. Just one minute of silence.
Copy !req
922. Thank you for doing that with me.
Copy !req
923. I feel so much better.
Copy !req
924. So the way I left...
Copy !req
925. Was messed up.
Copy !req
926. - Yes, I should have called you.
- You shouldn't have left.
Copy !req
927. The doctor came out to speak to you.
I didn't know what to tell her.
Copy !req
928. I really didn't know what to tell your dad.
Copy !req
929. And on top of that,
I tried to get a cab home.
Copy !req
930. Of course, I couldn't get one,
so I had to take the train at midnight.
Copy !req
931. People were looking at me with Gavin like...
Copy !req
932. someone was gonna call Child Services.
Copy !req
933. I know you're trying to apologize,
but that doesn't mean it gets to be easy.
Copy !req
934. Okay, talk.
Copy !req
935. Can...?
Copy !req
936. Can we sit?
Copy !req
937. Is he down?
Copy !req
938. Finally.
Copy !req
939. Listen.
Copy !req
940. I... I realize
I need to deal with my feelings.
Copy !req
941. When I'm scared...
Copy !req
942. Which I was in the hospital,
and I have been...
Copy !req
943. for a long time.
Copy !req
944. I get really angry.
Copy !req
945. And I know it's a way of saying,
"I can't deal with this.
Copy !req
946. Get away from me."
But that's not what I want.
Copy !req
947. It's actually the opposite of what I want.
Copy !req
948. You and Gavin...
Copy !req
949. you're what I want.
Copy !req
950. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
951. I have to go and see Jerry.
Copy !req
952. He's dying.
Copy !req
953. I know.
Copy !req
954. My dad is dying.
Copy !req
955. Cecilia Sherman.
Copy !req
956. Colby Dickerson.
Copy !req
957. Justin Cook.
Copy !req
958. Rebecca Anito.
Copy !req
959. Lloyd Vogel.
Copy !req
960. Andrea Vogel.
Copy !req
961. Gavin Vogel.
Copy !req
962. Jerry Vogel.
Copy !req
963. Thank you, God.
Copy !req
964. He still eats like a teenager.
Copy !req
965. Cold cuts, sugar cereal.
Copy !req
966. Stubborn goat.
Copy !req
967. At least you come by it honestly.
Copy !req
968. Did you know about me...
Copy !req
969. and my sister?
Copy !req
970. Not... Not until very recently.
Copy !req
971. What about my mom?
Copy !req
972. When he got sick last year,
Copy !req
973. after the first episode, he...
Copy !req
974. He started to talk
Copy !req
975. and tell me things
that I wish he'd told me a long time ago.
Copy !req
976. Whose one-day cash winnings total...
Copy !req
977. We got bourbon, you know.
Copy !req
978. - And now, here is the host of Jeopardy!
- I mean, someone should drink it.
Copy !req
979. No, thanks.
Copy !req
980. Not even beer?
Copy !req
981. Oh, do you have...? Yeah, yeah, I'll...
I'll drink a beer if it'll make you happy.
Copy !req
982. No, we don't have beer.
Copy !req
983. Don't do it because it'd make me happy.
Do it because you wanna do it.
Copy !req
984. You don't have a beer,
and I don't want a beer, so...
Copy !req
985. So don't drink anything.
Copy !req
986. Just dehydrate.
Copy !req
987. Sorry.
Copy !req
988. I definitely broke the Pack 'n Play.
It just snapped like a chicken bone.
Copy !req
989. No.
Copy !req
990. - How's he doing?
- He seems fine.
Copy !req
991. - Yeah?
- I don't know.
Copy !req
992. They don't put a hospital bed
in your living room if you're fine.
Copy !req
993. Hey. Thank you for coming.
Copy !req
994. You're gonna love the sofa bed.
Copy !req
995. - Yeah?
- No.
Copy !req
996. Okay, come here.
Copy !req
997. I know.
Copy !req
998. I know.
Copy !req
999. You wish it was your mom
who was awake right now. I know.
Copy !req
1000. But we're gonna let her sleep, okay?
Copy !req
1001. I'm gonna get better at this.
Copy !req
1002. And we're gonna have to
get used to each other.
Copy !req
1003. Who's that?
Copy !req
1004. That Dorothy?
Copy !req
1005. Come on.
Copy !req
1006. You okay?
Copy !req
1007. Yeah, I'm fine.
Copy !req
1008. It's 4 in the morning.
Copy !req
1009. I don't sleep much these days.
Copy !req
1010. You don't sleep either, do you?
Copy !req
1011. I never did this with you.
Copy !req
1012. Up in the middle of the night
doing the... mom thing.
Copy !req
1013. It's not a mom thing.
Copy !req
1014. You know what I mean.
Copy !req
1015. You should rest.
Copy !req
1016. No. Hey.
Copy !req
1017. Come on, stay.
Copy !req
1018. Hey.
Copy !req
1019. Right over there.
Copy !req
1020. What?
Copy !req
1021. Just grab two glasses.
Copy !req
1022. I don't think that's the best idea.
Copy !req
1023. How would you know? You don't drink.
Copy !req
1024. Come on.
Copy !req
1025. Now we're talking.
Copy !req
1026. Cheers.
Copy !req
1027. Lloyd...
Copy !req
1028. I am sorry for leaving you and your sister.
Copy !req
1029. It was...
Copy !req
1030. It was selfish.
Copy !req
1031. And it was cruel.
Copy !req
1032. Will you look at me?
Copy !req
1033. I am so sorry, son.
Copy !req
1034. It's not fair, you know?
Copy !req
1035. I think...
Copy !req
1036. I'm just now
starting to figure out how to live my life.
Copy !req
1037. I always loved you.
Copy !req
1038. I love you too...
Copy !req
1039. Dad.
Copy !req
1040. Hey.
Copy !req
1041. - Hm.
- What?
Copy !req
1042. It's stupid.
Copy !req
1043. It's like 10,000 words.
Copy !req
1044. Yeah.
Copy !req
1045. It's not really about Mister Rogers.
Copy !req
1046. - I know.
- I mean, it is, but...
Copy !req
1047. it's so you.
Copy !req
1048. You never talk about this stuff.
Copy !req
1049. Nope.
Copy !req
1050. It's good.
Copy !req
1051. - Yeah?
- Yeah.
Copy !req
1052. Lloyd, I love it.
Copy !req
1053. - You do?
- Yes. It's gonna be the cover.
Copy !req
1054. Right off the bat, about the wedding...
Copy !req
1055. Whatever.
It was the most entertaining one yet.
Copy !req
1056. I'm just glad you're here.
Copy !req
1057. Don't go to Martha's Vineyard.
Copy !req
1058. - Why not? It's my honeymoon. I deserve it.
- Absolutely, you do.
Copy !req
1059. No, it's not a question of entitlement.
You're not gonna like it.
Copy !req
1060. It's a bunch of rich jerks.
And it's freezing.
Copy !req
1061. You're gonna freeze to death
with a bunch of rich jerks.
Copy !req
1062. Who's here?
Copy !req
1063. Ah. I'm in the right place.
Copy !req
1064. - Come on in.
- Lloyd.
Copy !req
1065. Holy crap.
Copy !req
1066. - Andrea.
- Hi, Fred.
Copy !req
1067. Such a pleasure to finally see you.
Copy !req
1068. - Can I take this for you?
- Oh, thank you. Yes.
Copy !req
1069. Hello, Mister Rogers.
Copy !req
1070. Hello.
Copy !req
1071. Hello there.
Copy !req
1072. Hi, Gavin.
Copy !req
1073. Hello. I hope you and I
can be friends someday.
Copy !req
1074. Mr. Vogel.
Copy !req
1075. May I call you Jerry?
Copy !req
1076. Yes, sir.
Copy !req
1077. You certainly may.
Copy !req
1078. Lloyd, Joanne adored your article, as did I.
Copy !req
1079. Andrea, are you feeling better
about day care?
Copy !req
1080. A little.
Copy !req
1081. Maybe.
Copy !req
1082. What? You're not the only one
who talks to Fred.
Copy !req
1083. Mister Rogers,
is it true you're a sharpshooter?
Copy !req
1084. Navy SEAL.
Copy !req
1085. No, I'm afraid not.
Copy !req
1086. What the hell kind of insane question
was that?
Copy !req
1087. I heard it.
Copy !req
1088. Andrea, where'd you guys go
on your honeymoon?
Copy !req
1089. Well, we eloped in Maui,
so we were kind of already on our honeymoon.
Copy !req
1090. - I would've gone.
- You weren't invited.
Copy !req
1091. Hey. Lloyd, he's embarrassed by us.
Copy !req
1092. I'm kidding.
Copy !req
1093. I know.
Copy !req
1094. Maybe we should do a family vacation.
Copy !req
1095. What do you think about that, Dad?
Copy !req
1096. Should we dip our toes in the ocean
together?
Copy !req
1097. Oh, that sounds so nice.
Copy !req
1098. Crash your honeymoon?
Copy !req
1099. Count me in.
Copy !req
1100. If I'm still here.
Copy !req
1101. You know,
Copy !req
1102. death is something
many of us are uncomfortable speaking about.
Copy !req
1103. But to die is to be human.
Copy !req
1104. And anything human is mentionable.
Copy !req
1105. Anything mentionable is manageable.
Copy !req
1106. Anything mentionable is manageable.
Copy !req
1107. You got to send me a copy.
Copy !req
1108. Joanne will love this when she sees it.
Copy !req
1109. It'd be so much cooler if he was in this.
Copy !req
1110. - Thank you.
- Thank you.
Copy !req
1111. I should get going.
Copy !req
1112. I'll walk you out.
Copy !req
1113. I got these.
Copy !req
1114. Count on it.
Copy !req
1115. Thank you.
Copy !req
1116. Hey. What...?
Copy !req
1117. What did you say to Jerry?
Copy !req
1118. I asked him to pray for me.
Copy !req
1119. I figure anyone who is going through
what he is going through
Copy !req
1120. must be awfully close to God.
Copy !req
1121. - Lloyd.
- Bill.
Copy !req
1122. Read the article.
Copy !req
1123. And?
Copy !req
1124. So maybe I could slow down for a few months.
Copy !req
1125. What do you mean?
Copy !req
1126. Stay home with Gavin.
Copy !req
1127. Let you go back to work
without having to worry about day care.
Copy !req
1128. - I want to.
- Really?
Copy !req
1129. You?
Copy !req
1130. Gavin and I already discussed it.
Copy !req
1131. We both agree.
Copy !req
1132. I'm so glad I had a chance to tell you
about my friend Lloyd and his family.
Copy !req
1133. I have a new picture of Lloyd
with his family.
Copy !req
1134. Would you like to see it?
Copy !req
1135. There they are.
Copy !req
1136. That's a nice picture.
Copy !req
1137. It gives me a good feeling
to see them all together like that.
Copy !req
1138. I hope you know
that you made today a very special day
Copy !req
1139. by just your being you.
Copy !req
1140. There's no one in the whole world like you,
and I like you just the way you are.
Copy !req
1141. See you next time.
Copy !req
1142. And that's a cut.
Copy !req
1143. Thank you.
Copy !req
1144. Okay. All right.
Copy !req
1145. - Great?
- Yeah.
Copy !req
1146. - That's a wrap. Thank you.
- Yes, thank you. Thank you.
Copy !req
1147. You're on location tomorrow
at Mr. Wagner's shoe shop.
Copy !req
1148. - Call time is 8 a.m.
- Thank you all.
Copy !req
1149. ADs have the call sheet.
Copy !req
1150. Night.
Copy !req
1151. See you tomorrow.
Copy !req
1152. Good night, Kelly.
Copy !req
1153. - Good night, boss.
- Good night.
Copy !req
1154. See you tomorrow.
Copy !req
