252. which equals the attendance
here today.Copy !req
253. - What a team.

303. He'd kill you.Copy !req
304. Thanks.Copy !req

309. Oh, no.
He left already.Copy !req

short, young person.Copy !req
318. He's ten, eleven years old.Copy !req
319. I take this business
very seriously.Copy !req
320. If you're joking, I swear you're
going to end up selling wienersCopy !req
321. in the nosebleed section.Copy !req
322. I'm not joking, sir.
Really. This Henry's just a kid.Copy !req
323. A kid?Copy !req

993. He's turning into
a regular social giant.Copy !req
994. Uh-huh.Copy !req
995. Where'd she go?Copy !req
996. Nothing like a little Pennant
fever to get the juices going.Copy !req
997. Mr. Carson sure can
throw a party.Copy !req
998. Welcome to life
in the fast lane, Henry.Copy !req
999. It's the road less traveled.Copy !req
1000. Sometimes, you just got to
put the pedal to the metal,Copy !req
1001. and just live the fantasy.
Rock 'n' roll!Copy !req
1002. Oh, he's, he's
a pretty good student.Copy !req
1003. He could pay more attention to
his homework, that's for sure.Copy !req
1004. Is there anything
he doesn't do well?Copy !req
1005. He doesn't slow dance.
Ow!Copy !req
1006. Ooh.Copy !req
1007. - That makes two of us.
- No. No, no, you're good.Copy !req
1008. You know, maybe if you just
let go a little...Copy !req
1009. Like this?Copy !req
1010. Yeah.Copy !req
1011. Let me show you how
to enjoy all the lightsCopy !req
1012. and the bells
and the whistles,Copy !req
1013. and remember now...

1014. Shall we?Copy !req
1015. Excuse me, ladies.Copy !req
1016. Excuse me.Copy !req
1017. Thank you.
All right now!Copy !req
1018. Oh, boy, pinball!Copy !req
1019. Everybody, ready!
Come on, baby! Fire!Copy !req
1020. Hey, you smell good.Copy !req
1021. How you doing, Jack?Copy !req
1022. Can you believe this?Copy !req
1023. A little bit
of competition, huh?Copy !req
1024. I've been talking
to the Yankees.Copy !req
1025. They want
to buy the kid...Copy !req
1026. for $25 million.Copy !req
1027. Buy him?Copy !req
1028. Buy him!Copy !req
1029. He's a kid.Copy !req
1030. The Cubs own him,Copy !req
1031. and as his manager,
you get 10%,Copy !req
1032. which translates into
$2.5 million...Copy !req
1033. if you can get Mary
to sign the contract.Copy !req
1034. You'll be in New York
living like a king,Copy !req
1035. and I think this could be
a very good time to relocate.Copy !req
1036. I'll do it.Copy !req
1037. But you got to do
something for me.Copy !req
1038. Name it.Copy !req
1039. You got to get rid
of Chet Steadman.Copy !req
1040. - Where is he?
- He'll be here.Copy !req
1041. He thinks he's so cool.Copy !req
1042. He should be working
on the boat.Copy !req
1043. - George.
- Why do you always defend him?Copy !req
1044. What? All I said
was the word "George."Copy !req
1045. Ah, forget it!Copy !req
1046. From the top, everybody!
And more smoke!Copy !req
1047. Playback!Copy !req
1048. That's a cut!
Cut it!Copy !req
1049. I'm sorry. What was
that last line again?Copy !req
1050. Henry!
Henry. Henry.Copy !req
1051. Oh, this is unbelievable.Copy !req
1052. Hey, I, uh, I need you
to sign something.Copy !req
1053. - What is this?
- This... is Henry's contract.Copy !req
1054. What do you think
of New York?Copy !req
1055. What?Copy !req
1056. I need you to be more... sexy.Copy !req
1057. How much longer
is this gonna take?Copy !req
1058. Hey!Copy !req
1059. Hey.Copy !req
1060. Well, look who finally
decided to show up.Copy !req
1061. - George!
- They kept me there for hours.Copy !req
1062. Do you think
I like doing that?Copy !req
1063. I don't know.
Do you?Copy !req
1064. Look, I'm sorry. Let's just
work on the boat and forget it.Copy !req
1065. - Okay.
- No!Copy !req
1066. I'm not gonna work on the boat
just 'cause you say to.Copy !req
1067. What, I'm supposed to
work on it by myself?Copy !req
1068. Great idea! Work on it
yourself, Mr. Superstar!Copy !req
1069. What?Copy !req
1070. The only reason you're
playing for the CubsCopy !req
1071. is 'cause you broke
your stupid arm.Copy !req
1072. - Guys! Come on!
- Shut up!Copy !req
1073. - Make me!
- Come on, stop! You guys are friends!Copy !req
1074. Stop it!
Come on, you guys!Copy !req
1075. Stop! Get off of him!
Stop it now!Copy !req
1076. Shut up!
I told you to shut up!Copy !req
1077. - Don't! Stop!
- Ow!Copy !req
1078. - I hate you!
- Stop!Copy !req
1079. That's gonna make you stupid.Copy !req
1080. I guess it already did.Copy !req
1081. Steadman.Copy !req
1082. Yeah?Copy !req
1083. Get in here.Copy !req
1084. Ooh, maybe I'll get
my big bonus.Copy !req
1085. Inside.Copy !req
1086. Oh, boy.Copy !req
1087. Sit down, Chet.Copy !req
1088. No, thanks.Copy !req
1089. The franchise is tired of
waiting for your arm to come around.Copy !req
1090. Isn't that true, Sal?Copy !req
1091. So, you're gonna sit out
the rest of the seasonCopy !req
1092. on the bench,
and then we're releasing you.Copy !req
1093. Get dressed.
I'm taking you home.Copy !req
1094. Come on! Now!Copy !req
1095. What's the matter?Copy !req
1096. Henry... don't take this game
too seriously...Copy !req
1097. because one day
it's gonna be over.Copy !req
1098. Your gift will be gone.Copy !req
1099. Don't forget that.Copy !req
1100. Oh, no. I promise we'll
be there. Thank you. Thanks.Copy !req
1101. I had a limo waiting for you
at the stadiumCopy !req
1102. to take you to the photo shoot.
Now where were you?Copy !req
1103. - Chet gave me a ride home.
- Chet Steadman?Copy !req
1104. I am so sick of hearing
about Chet Steadman!Copy !req
1105. - Take it easy.
- You take it easy!Copy !req
1106. Now you got 15 minutes
to get there.Copy !req
1107. - Go get ready.
- I'm not going.Copy !req
1108. You're not going?
You are going.Copy !req
1109. I'm going to play
with my friends.Copy !req
1110. You can't just
blow off a photo shootCopy !req
1111. to go out and play.Copy !req
1112. Get out of my face, Jack!Copy !req
1113. Don't you walk away from me
when I'm talking to you!Copy !req
1114. - You show me some respect!
- You're not my father!Copy !req
1115. That's right,
I'm not your father!Copy !req
1116. Chet Steadman's
not your father. In fact,Copy !req
1117. your mother probably doesn't
even know who your father is!Copy !req
1118. - Your father's some guy who left town!
- That is enough!Copy !req
1119. Mary, I—I—I— thought
you were in the shower.Copy !req
1120. How could you say that?Copy !req
1121. - Mary.
- Get out of my house!Copy !req
1122. I never want to see you
near us again!Copy !req
1123. Well, you're gonna be seeing me,
you're gonna be seeing a lot of me,Copy !req
1124. because we're moving
to New York together.Copy !req
1125. What?Copy !req
1126. Henry's been sold
to the Yankees.Copy !req
1127. - They sold me?
- You can't do that.Copy !req
1128. Of course I can!
I'm the manager!Copy !req
1129. - I make the decisions!
- He is my son!Copy !req
1130. - He's my client!
- What? You are nuts.Copy !req
1131. I brought in Reebok!
I brought in Pepsi!Copy !req
1132. You stay away from him!Copy !req
1133. He's half mine!Copy !req
1134. All right, Mom!Copy !req
1135. Don't forget your purse!Copy !req
1136. That didn't even hurt, okay?Copy !req
1137. - What a jerk!
- Oh, my God!Copy !req
1138. My God, that felt really good!Copy !req
1139. - What a butthead he turned out to be.
- Slam! I can't believe you hit himCopy !req
1140. - that hard!
- Maybe I should've killed him.Copy !req
1141. All right, settle down.Copy !req
1142. Sit down, sit down.Copy !req
1143. Okay, sit down.Copy !req
1144. Okay.Copy !req

1151. What?Copy !req
1152. I know that he left you
when you were pregnant with me.Copy !req
1153. How did you know that?Copy !req
1154. Grandma told me when
I was in second grade.Copy !req
1155. Why didn't you tell me?Copy !req
1156. Because I thought you liked
telling me stories about him,Copy !req
1157. about how he was a great
baseball player and all.Copy !req
1158. Henry, I'm sorry.Copy !req
1159. I just wanted you to have
