Hey, Dave,
I Think You Need

Some More Slack
On That Wire.

Dr. Huxtable,
I've Got Plenty Of Slack.

What I Need Is Room.

Excuse Me.

Wait. Where
Are You Going?

I'm Going To Get A Wire Nut.

It's Out On My Truck.

No, No, No, No, No.

You Say That And Then
You Will Be Gone

And I Won't See You
Until Tomorrow, Dave.

Now, Come On.

Dave:
If It Isn't

On My Truck

I Have To Go To The Shop
To Get It.

Now, Dave, Listen To Me.

You Do Fine Work

But It Takes A Long Time.

You're Over At The Store
And Then You Say

"I've Got To Go
Over To The Huxtables

"And I Have To Put
Some Wire Nuts In.

"So, Let's See.

"Don't Put Any Wire Nuts
On The Truck.

"Don't Put Any Wire Clippers
And, As A Matter Of Fact

Don't Put Any Wire
On The Truck At All."

And Then You Come Here

And You Don't Have It.

Then You Go Away

And I Don't See You
Until The Next Morning.

Let The Man Go, Cliff.

Let Him Go Where?

Thank You,
Mrs. Huxtable.

I Will Always Do Work For You.

Yeah.

Because She's The Only One
Who Will Hire You.

See? You're
At It Again.

You're Bothering People.

And The One Job
That You Were In Charge Of

Is Still Not Finished--
The Doorbell.

(Truck Driving Away)

We Won't See Him
Until Tomorrow Sometime.

Hey, Mom. Hey, Dad.

Hi, Son.

How You Doing?

Fine.

Good.

Hey, Dad.

Where's The Food?

Somebody Stole It.

Dad, Where's
The Food, Really?

The Food Is Gone, Theo.

If We Get Hungry,
We Go For Takeout.

Here's Your Book--

The Book You Asked For,
Behavioral Science.

Thanks, Dad.

You're Welcome.

Where's The Food?

There's No Food, Man.

We Don't Have Any.

All Right.
Be Like That.

How Are You?

Well, I'm Living.

I Got My First
Parent/Counselor Night

At The Center This Friday

And I'm Kind Of Nervous.

You Got
Any Leftovers?

There Is No Food.

Why Are You Nervous?

I Have Meetings
With The Parents

And Some Kids Aren't Doing Well.

I'm Not Experienced

At Handling
The Parents' Reactions.

You Don't Want Them
To sh**t The Messenger.

There You Go.

Want To Practice?

On You?

Yeah. I'll Be A Parent.

Okay.

I'll Be Mr. Jameson.

Now, Mr. Jamison...

No. My Name Is Jameson.

Jame-Son.

See, People Make That Mistake
All The Time.

They Say Ja-Mi-Son.

My Name Is Jame-Son.

Okay, Mr. Jameson.

Now, Your Son, Jamie...

Right. Jamie Junior.

See, I'm Jamie Senior.

The Second.

Okay. Mr. Jameson,
Your Son, Jamie Junior...

Yeah?

He's A Nice Boy.

Thank You. Thank You.

But He Refuses To Participate
In Group Activities.

So What?

My Son Is
An Individual.

He Thinks Like An Individual

Which Is The Same Way
That I Think.

Now, You Have A Problem
With That?

No, Sir. Not At All.

How Old Are You, Boy?

I Hope None Of The Parents
Are Like Mr. Jameson, Dad.

No, You Can't Hope.

You Can't Hope

Because When It Shows Up,
Hope Will Leave You.

Every Parent Is Different

Like Mr. Jameson
Is Real Different.

So You Have To Be Flexible.

Okay. Why Don't You
Be A Parent?

Uh-Oh.

Okay. You Be
Miss Jackson.

Be Careful.

Miss Jackson, Your Daughter
Has A Concentration Problem.

Que? Que?

No Entiendo.

Pero Creo Que Usted
Es Un Hombre...

No, No, No.

No, Ma. Mrs. Jackson.

I Said Your Last Name
Was Miss Jackson.

Si, Si. Es Correcto.

Soy Senora Jackson. Si.

Deal With It.

Deal With It Now.

Hablo Un Poquito De Espanol.

Necesitamos Un Interprete.

My Man Dealt With It.

Cliff, Look At This.

Theo Has Outdone Himself.

Okay, Are You Ready?

Here Are The Keys
To The Car.

Why Don't You Drive Yourself
Where You Want

And Then Come Back
And Get Us.

Daddy.

Then Behave
Yourself.

Hey.

Thanks
For Coming Down.

Impressive.

How Are Your
Conferences Going?

All Positive So Far.

No Mr. Jamesons?

None Yet.

Well, He's Coming.

Thank You.

Look, Rudy.

String Art. Cool.

Thanks.

Olivia, Come On.

We Really Have To...

Nice Boat.

Thanks.

It's A Ship.

Oh. Good Use Of String.

It's Hard To Make Waves
Without Water

But If You Move Your Head
From Side To Side

You Get The Feel Of It.

Oh, Yeah. I'm There.

Rudy, We're Ready To Go.

Yeah.

Mom, I'm Not Ready Yet.

I Haven't Seen All The Exhibits.

Is He The Exhibit?

Dad!

I'm Sorry.

Hi. I'm Stanley.

How Are You?
Hello.

Mrs. Huxtable.
Dr. Huxtable.

And I'm
Rudy Huxtable.

And I'm Ready To Go.

Are You All Related
To Theo Huxtable?

Yes, We Are.

Theo Has Your Number?

Yeah. Oh, Yeah.

It Was Very Nice
To Have Met You, Stanley.

Bye.

Bye.

I Think I Got
My First Mr. Jameson.

Well, Take Care Of It
And Good Luck.

We're Going
To The Video Store

And Rent Father Of The Bride.

Mr. Huxtable?

Hi. I'm Lisa Hairston.

Oh, Ms. Hairston. Hi.

Come On In.

Have A Seat.

Thank You.

I Never Realized

What A Full Program
You Have Here.

I'm Impressed.

Thank You,
On Behalf Of All Of Us.

So, How's My Ivy Doing?

Ms. Hairston,
What I'm About To Say

Is Not Something
We Can't Deal With

And I Don't Want You
To Take It Personally.

I Don't Want Ivy
To Take It Personally...

Come On Out With It.

I Can Handle It.

You Sure?

Watch Me.

Well, As You Know, I Confer
With All Of My Kids' Teachers

And Ivy's Teacher
Has Informed Me

That She's Not Doing
Her Homework.

My Ivy?

Ivy's Been Telling Me

That She Doesn't Do
Her Homework Here

Because She Does It
With You At Home.

Oh, That's Interesting.

It's Impossible For Ivy
To Do It With Me.

I'm In School
Four Nights A Week.

Now, She Tells Me

That She Does It All
Here At The Center.

Okay. Well, It Appears To Me
We've Got Two Problems Here--

Ethics And Commitment.

I Agree.

She's Lying And She's Lazy.

But It's Nothing
We Can't Manage.

I Hope So.
I Don't Want To Quit School.

You Don't Have To Worry.

If It Was Up To Me

Children Would Be
Like Elevators.

The Doors Would Never Open
On The th Floor.

I Was Worse When I Was .

For Me, It Was .

I'm Just Glad That...

Well, Getting Back...

My Suggestion Is That We
Set Up A Check System

Between Ivy's Teacher,
Yourself And Me.

That Way, You'll Know
Her Assignment

And What She's Finished Here.

Yeah, Okay. I'm For It.

Okay.

Let's Try It For Next Week

And If You Want To Check In
With Me Next Saturday

I'm Here Till : .

Well, I'll Make It A Point
To Be Here Before : .

Good.

Thank You.

Well, Thank You
For Coming In.

Thank You.

You Know

If You'd Like To Meet
Before Saturday...

Have Some Coffee...

Thank You, But I Do Think
Saturday Is A Good Idea.

Okay. Thank You.

It's Been A Pleasure,
Mr. Huxtable.

Same Here,
Ms. Hairston.

It's Lisa.

Ms. Hairston's My Mother.

"The Transaction

"Doubled The Size
Of The U.S.

At That Time."

Man, The Louisiana Purchase
Is Boring.

I Agree.

Let's Finish This Paper

So We Can Go
To The Record Store.

Yeah. Let's Not
Fool Around.

Let's Focus.
Let's Concentrate.

You Got Any Snacks?

(Phone Ringing)

I'll Get It.

Hello, Huxtable Residence.

Speaking.

Oh, Hi, Stanley.

Um, You Got My Number
From Theo?

No, I'm Not Doing Anything.

Excuse Me.

Kenny, Why Don't You
Go Get Us Some Snacks?

I'm Not Hungry.

I'm In A Work Mode.

Sorry, Stanley.

I Just Have An Old Friend Over.

Next Saturday?

At : ?

Yeah, I'll Be Here.

All Right.

I'll See You Then.

Bye.

Well, Old Friend...

Can We Get To Work?

Yeah, Yeah, Sure.

"The Louisiana Purchase

"Was One Of The Largest
Land Acquisitions

In U.S. History."

How's Everything Going?

Just Fine, Sir.

Just Trying To Get
Some Work Done Around Here.

Glad To Hear It.

At Ease.

Ah, Ms. Hairston.

Hi, Mr. Huxtable.

Good To See You.

Likewise.

Have A Seat.

Look, Before We
Get Started With This

I Have An Apology To Make.

You Do?

In Regard To That Coffee
Invitation Last Friday?

Don't Even Worry About It.

Mr. Huxtable,
My Grandmother Used To Say To Me

"Lisa, We All Have

"An Open Window
To Our Personal Lives

But Honey,
We've Got To Control The Shade."

Now, Last Friday...

I Had My Shade Down

And I Tugged On It
A Little Too Hard

And It Snapped All The Way Up

And For That, I Apologize.

Apology Accepted.

Look, Whatever
Your Attraction

For Me Is, We Can Keep It
On A Professional Level.

Mr. Huxtable

Isn't There Anything Else
You'd Like To Say?

I Appreciate Your Honesty.

You Appreciate My Honesty?

Mr. Huxtable,
When We Were Talking Last Friday

Was It Me, Or Did I Detect
A Rise In Your Shade?

Look, Ms. Hairston,
I Would Really Hate For You

To Confuse
My Counseling Techniques

With Emotional Involvement.

When You Smiled At Me
With Your Eyes

That Was Strictly Counseling.

Friendly Counseling.

Yes, Yes,
Indeed.

Okay, It Was
Very Friendly Counseling

But I Really Don't Think
We Should See Each Other.

Right. No Coffee.

No Coffee.

No Coffee.

(Huskily:)
Not Even Decaf.

Our Focus Is On Ivy.

Right. Ivy.

Deal?

Deal.

Ms. Hairston...

Mr. Huxtable...

It's So Nice
To See You Again.

Please, Have A Seat.

What Would You Have Had
With Your Coffee?

Sweet Potato Pie.

Nice Choice.

Now, About Ivy.

Mr. Thompson Says

He's Pleased
With Her Progress And...

(Doorbell Ringing Weakly)

Oh, My God,
That's So Embarrassing.

Kenny, What Are
You Doing Here?

Isn't This
The Huxtable Residence?

You Didn't Move, Did You?

Kenny, I'm Expecting Company.

Oh, Really?

Well, I Just Came Here

To See My Dear Old Friend,
Dr. Huxtable.

Are You Going To Wear
Those Shoes?

What's Wrong With Them?

Oh, Nothing. I'm Sorry.

I Didn't Mean
To Bring It Up.

Good Afternoon.

Stanley, Isn't It?

Yeah. Is Rudy Home?

Yeah. Is She Expecting You?

Yeah. Are You Rudy's Brother?

You Could Say That.

Okay. You're Rudy's Brother.

Come In.

Sit Down.

Let's Chat.

So, Stan...

You Got Big Plans
For The Evening?

Maybe We Do. Maybe We Don't.

You Got A Problem With That?

It's Awfully Close To Dinner
To Be Calling On Rudy.

I Don't Know
What Time You Guys Eat.

Well, Maybe You Should Check
Next Time.

I Don't Smell Nothing Cooking.

It's Frozen.

Kenny,
You're Still Here.

Hi, Stanley.

Hi. Your Brother And I
Were Just Talking About You.

Brother?

He Said It.

I Just Didn't Correct Him.

Well, Then, Who Are You?

I'm A Close Friend

Of Her Father's

And As We Know,
All Men Are Brothers.

Well, Brother,
You And I Are Not Finished Yet.

Anytime, Brother.

Um, Kenny,
My Father's Upstairs.

I'll See Him

When I'm Ready.

Hey, Ken.

Ah, Dr. Huxtable.

Ah, The String Designer.

How You Doing?

How's Everything?

All Right.

So, Dr. Huxtable

How's The Baby Business?

It's Still
Going On, Ken.

And How's Mrs. Huxtable?

Last Time We Talked

She Said, "Kenny,
I Need Your Prayers.

I've Got A Big Case
Coming Up."

She's Just... Fine, Kenny.

More Importantly,
How Are You?

Holding My Own, Sir.

Rudy, Why Don't We
Get Together Another Time?

And We Will Get Together
Another Time.

No, Stanley,
Why Don't You Stay?

You Heard The Man.

If He Wants To Go,
Let Him Go.

Rudy, You Mind Walking Me
To The Corner?

Gladly.

Stanley, Don't Make
Yourself A Stranger.

Yeah, Don't Be
A Stranger, Stanley.

We'll Always Be Here.

How Did The Conference
With Ivy's Mother Go?

It Couldn't
Have Been Better.

It Looks Like
We're Getting Ivy

Back On The Right Track.

What About That Other Situation
With Ivy's Mother?

Mom, Can We Focus
On The Big Picture Here?

Okay. Sounds Like It Went Well.

Yeah, It Did.

You Know, When You're In
The Position To Help People

A Lot Of Emotions
Can Get Mixed Up.

I Know.

No, I'm Talking About

People Can Become Attracted
To You.

I Know.

No, Mom,
What I'm Saying Is

Romantically, People Can
Become Attracted To You.

I Know.

You?

Mom?

Yes, I Know.

Attorneys Help People
In Distress Too.

Yeah, I Know, But You?

Mom?

You Think When I Go To Work,
People Look At Me And Say

"That's Theo's Mother"?

Honey, That's Not My Name.

My Name Is Not "Theo's Mother."

People Don't Look At Me And Say,
"That's A Married Dull Person."

Are You Kidding?

Wake Up And Smell
The Flowers.

Do You Know
How Many Invitations I Get

To Candlelight Dinners
After Work?

(Laughing)

Do You Know
How Many Times

I've Been Asked
To Broadway Plays

With A Little Cha-Cha
Afterwards?

Have You Any Idea
Of The Number Of Plane Tickets

That Are Left On My Desk
To Sri Lanka And Rio For Lunch?

And You're
Talking About

A Little Invitation To Coffee?

Please!
