I Knew It!

(Grunting And Groaning)

Yeah!

Olivia!

What Are You Doing?

Making Our
Favorite Dinner--

Turkey Stuffed With
French Fries.

When Did We Ever Have Turkey
Stuffed With French Fries?

Never, But Can't You
Just Taste It?

I Have An Idea.

Why Don't You Make Dinner
On Your Play Stove, Okay?

Because I'm Not Making
Play Dinner.

I'm Making Real Food.

Sweetie, You're Really
Not Old Enough To Cook.

Yes, I Am.

I'm Almost Five.

That's Still Too Young.

When I Grow Up

I'm Going To Make Turkey
Stuffed With French Fries

And I'm Going To Do
Whatever I Want.

Nobody Gets To Do
Whatever They Want.

The President Does.

You're Not The President, Okay?

Maybe Not Now,
But When I Am, Watch Out.

(Radio Playing Dance Music)

All Right, Let's Get
Serious Now, Okay?

Can A Representative
Win An Election

Without The Popular Vote?

If A Candidate's Not Popular

Why Waste
Everybody's Time Running?

Come On, Answer The Question.

Those Who Know

Know That Only
The President Can.

Here's One
Right Back At You.

Wait. This Is
My Favorite Part.

♪ Kiss Me Tenderly ♪

♪ I Could Never Feel... ♪

No. We Got To Stay
In The Study Mode

Or We're Never Going
To Get Through This.

I'm Ready.

All Right.

Miss Tucker,
Who Is The Speaker Of The House?

In This House, Dr. Huxtable.

Girl, I'm Serious.

You Didn't Say Which House.

All Right.

Thomas Foley.

You Didn't Think

I Knew That.

What State Is He From?

Washington State,
And He's A...

Democrat.
Democrat.

Go Ahead With
Your Bad Self.

I May Be Bad

But Together We Are
Academically Dangerous.

Hello, Harvard.

Wait A Minute.

Hold On.

I Told Princeton
We'd Call Later.

Say, Harvard

Why Don't You Get In Line
Behind Spelman.

Okay, What's Next?

The Three Branches
Of Government

If That's In
Your Body Of Knowledge.

It Is.

Legislative--
They Create The Laws.

Judicial--
They Interpret The Laws

And Executive...

They Ignore The Laws.

It's Getting
A Little Quiet In Here.

A Hold On Me... ♪

Well, Girlfriend,
I Can't Let You Dance Alone.

Ho.

Hey, Ho.

Ho. Ho. Ho. Ho.

What Are You Guys Doing?

Studying.
Studying.

What? The Latest Dance Steps?

No. American History.
Government.

Excuse Me.

We Out
Of Potato Chips.

So, Pam, How Are You Doing
In History, Anyway?

On My Last Test,
I Got A Low "C."

Probably Because
The Studying You're Doing

Is Harder On Your Legs
Than On Your Brain.

Funny, Theo.

When Do You Study For A Test?

When I Have To...
The Night Before.

It's Fresh

And I Don't Have It
In My Brain Too Long.

I Used That Line Too

And I Also Got C's
When I Studied With My Friends.

We Listened To Music,
Played Around.

It Was Fun, But It Wasn't Fun
Bringing Those Grades Home.

I Should Study
Without The Music?

And Maybe Without Other People.

That's The Only Time
We Get To Talk

And Learn
The Latest Dance Steps.

Besides, When One Of Us
Gets The Right Answer

We Congratulate Each Other.

You Could Do That Alone.

When I'm By Myself
And I Get A Right Answer

I Give Myself A High Five.

If I'm Doing Really Well,
I'll Start Dancing With Myself.

Go, Theo.

Go, Theo.

Go, Theo.

Go, Theo.

Don't You Feel Silly?

Not When I'm Pulling In
A B+ Average.

Like I Could Get A B+ Average
Studying Alone.

You Can.

If You Want, I Can Give You
Some Study Tips.

Um, Charmaine

Theo Wants To Give Us
Some Study Tips.

Ooh, Study Tips
From A College Man.

I Feel Smarter Already.

Now For Starters,
No Music, All Right?

No Food, No Talking.

I Do That At Home.

We Study Together To Have Fun.

When You Go Home,
You Study Some More?

Yeah, Don't You?

No. I Thought
You Got Those Grades

Because You Were Smart.

I'm Smart Enough To Know

That I Better Study
Some More At Home.

Excuse Me.

Pam.

It Opened The Way
For More African-Americans

To Be Elected
To Public Office.

What Other Impact

Did The Voting Rights Act
Of Have?

Go Ahead, Herman.

It Had An Economic Impact.

Yes. Very Good.

Thank You Very Much.

How?

Lance.

Lance, Hello.

Oh, My Hand Wasn't Up.

Why Don't You Give It A Try?

They Probably
Had More Jobs Available?

All Right, Lance.

Thank You Very Much.

Why? Charmaine.

Because There Was
A Fairer Distribution

Of Municipal Contracts.

(Bell Ringing)

I Have Your Tests.

I'll Get Mine Later.

I Don't Want To Spoil
That Right Answer.

Lance, Stay Right
Where You Are.

I Thought You Liked Me.

I Like You.

It's My Red Pen
That Doesn't.

What Did
You Get, Dude?

Mind Your Business.

You Don't See Me Looking
Over Your Shoulder.

I Got An A-.

You Got A Minus,
All Right

With A "D"
In Front Of It.

Wonderful Improvement, Pam.

Thank You.

Stop The Ride
And Let Me Off.

That's Three B's
In A Row.

I Don't Know How Long
I Can Keep This Up.

Just Keep Putting In
That Extra Study Time.

I Know How She Did It.

She Looked At My Paper.

Whatever You Put Down,
She Put Down The Opposite.

What Are You Going To Do
With All These B's?

I Don't Know, But It Will
Look Good On My Record.

You're Not Thinking
About College.

My Girlfriend Here
Is College Material.

How's She Going
To Get To College?

Pam, You're Living
In The Huxtable House

But You Don't Have
Huxtable Money, Honey.

There Are Scholarships, Man.

You Play Football, Pam?

No, I Do Not
Play Football.

Who Said I Was Going
To College, Anyway?

She Didn't Say
She Wasn't, Either.

They're Just Saying
The First Dumb Thing

That Comes Into Their Heads.

I've Got To Go
To Trigonometry.

Let Me Escort You

'Cause I Don't Like
The Way Them Trig Guys

Been Looking
At Your Hypotenuse.

Lance, You're So Jealous.

I Love It.

Lot Of People Are Smart
Enough For College

But They're Not Going.

There You Go, Cinderella.

Before You Know It,
Your Mom Will Be Home

And You'll Move Out
Of That Huxtable Castle

Back Into
That Two-Room Pumpkin.

Your Good Sense Gets Lost

Between Your Brain
And Your Mouth.

That's Okay.

I Understand Why You're
Lashing Out On Me.

You Know I'm Telling The Truth.

Why Are You
Sitting Here

Staring At
These Four Walls?

Come On,
Let's Go Rent A Video.

I Can't Afford It.

What Are You
Talking About?

It's On Special.

You Can't Afford $ . ?

Not If I Want
To Go To College.

You Know A College
That Costs $ . ?

I Do Not Understand
What You Mean.

Why Do I Work To Get
Good Grades For College?

I Can't Afford It Anyway.

You'll Find A Way.

You're A Survivor.

You're Resourceful.

You're Tough.

Me? Are You Kidding?

This Is Charmaine
You're Talking To.

The Same Charmaine That Watched
You Stand Up To Vonzella Hardy

When We Were Ten Years Old.

She Tried To Take Our Lunch
Money For Her Cigarette Habit.

You Stood Up To Her With Me.

No, I Stood Up To Her
Behind You.

Didn't You Hear
My Knees Knocking?

I Wasn't Giving Up
My Lunch Money.

I Happen To Like Lunch.

You Almost Had
Vonzella For Lunch.

I Did What I Had To Do.

You're Always Doing
What You Have To Do.

Like When Your Grandmother
Got Sick

And Your Mother
Had To Take Care Of Her--

You Were Thrown In With People
You Hardly Knew.

I Would Have Sat So Still In
This House With These People

They Would Have Thought I
Was A Piece Of Furniture.

You Make Yourself
At Home Anywhere.

If They Put You
In A Lion's Den

You Would Have Them

In There Trying
On Your Jewelry.

I Can Be Charming
In Difficult Situations

But You're Good
At The Important Stuff.

Like, Remember Those Skates?

What Skates?

Those New Skates We Wanted
But Couldn't Afford?

I Gave Up,
But You Didn't.

You Talked That Guy
Into Holding A Pair For A Week

For Cents Down.

You Said, "Them Skates
Got My Name On Them."

Yeah, I Remember.

You Went To The Store

And Ran Errands For People.

You Delivered Coffee
To The Barber Shop

And You Even Delivered Pizzas
To The Pool Hall.

That's Right And The Next Week,
I Was Skating.

You Are Pam Tucker,
Super Student

Who Works, Goes To School,
Get Good Grades

And Still Has Time
For Charmaine.

Yeah.

Yeah, Yeah, You're Right.

I Can Do It.

Yeah, Thanks, Charmaine.

I'm Just Calling Them
As I See Them.

And When I Go To College,
I'll Study... What?

I Don't Know
What I Want To Be.

Do You Know?

Yeah, I Intend To Be
A Dental Technician...

Unless I Become
A Flight Attendant First.

Then Again, Telephone
Repairwomen Do Make Good Money.

Make A Choice.

Wait, There's More.

You Don't Know What
You Want To Be.

So I Don't Have A Clue.

How Are We Supposed To Know?

You Have To Be Hit
With Some Kind Of Inspiration.

Did It Hit You Yet?

Uh-Uh.

Whoo, What You Doing,
Spodie Odie?

Making My Own Flag.

When I Grow Up,
I'm Going To Be President.

President?

Yes. President Gets To Do
Anything She Wants.

I See.

She Gets To Make Turkey
Stuffed With French Fries

And Gets To Stay Up
Real, Real Late Too.

How Late Does She
Get To Stay Up?

About When The Dishwasher
Goes Off.

That Happens To Be The Time
I Fall Asleep Also.

And There's One Thing
The President Does Too.

What?

She Tucks Everyone In

Who Voted For Her.

So If I Vote For You..?

If You Vote For Me...

Tuck, Tuck, Tuck.

You Have My Vote.

Deal.

All Right.

Now What Are
We Drawing Here?

A Flag.

A Flag?

Yeah.

Where's My Paper?

This Is Your Paper.

You Just Get One Crayon,
And This Is Our Flag.

No, Not Our Flag.

I Want To Do My Own Flag.

Okay, Then
We'll Turn It Over.

There's Something Already
On This Side.

You Do Your Flag There.

No, Come On, My Flag
Will Be Smaller.

I Want A Big Flag.

I'm Going To Do A Flag
Bigger Than Your Flag

Because I'll Be
A Bigger Pres...

No, No!

Come On, Now.

Come On, You Can't Do...

These Are My Crayons.

Now... Hey, Come On.

Now This Will Be My Flag,
And These...

I Don't Want Any Stars.

I Want...

I'm Going To...

Okay, Now, Read The Chapters
On The New Deal

And Franklin Roosevelt's
First Term In Office.

There May Be A Quiz On It.

Last Time You Said
There Would Be A Quiz

There Wasn't

And I Wasted My Time
Reading That Stuff.

Well, You're Just Going To Have
To Waste Your Time Again.

You Want To Study
For This One Together?

No, We Have A System.

We Study Alone.

Yeah, Let's Not Mess
With Success.

Ah, There They Go--
The "B" Sisters.

In Case You Haven't Heard

Pam Got An A-
On Her Last Biology Test.

Oh, Wow.

Now That's Money
In The Bank.

But Anybody Want To Tell Me
The Last Biologist

That Was Drafted
Into The Nba?

I Never Heard Anybody Say

"Thank You, Biology,
For My New Car."

I Got This "A"
Because I Wanted To

Not For What
It Could Get Me.

Excuse Me, Miss Einstein.

Don't Waste
Your Breath On Them.

To Them,
"A" Is Not A Grade

It's Just The First Letter
In The Alphabet.

All:
Ooooh!

Sounds Like My Baby
Is Challenging You Guys.

Sounds Like She's
Challenging You Too.

Is That Right?

If The Grade Fits.

Pam, Did You Notice

An Absence Of "Ooh" When I
Said Something Very Clever?

Are You Saying I Can't Get
An "A" Anytime I Want To?

I'm Saying You
Couldn't Get An "A"

If You Made Up
The Test Yourself.

All:
Ooooh!

Miss Hobbs, Miss Hobbs,
Isn't It True

That You Can Be Successful
Without Going To College?

Sure You Can, Arthur.

See, There You Go.

I Got Six Brothers
And Sisters.

There Ain't No Way
I'm Going To College.

But I Got A Part-Time Job Now.

When I Get Out Of School,
I'll Be A Full-Time Driver.

In A Year,
I'll Have My Own Truck.

When You Get Out Of School,
I'll Have A Fleet.

And, Uh, If You're
Nice To Me, Pam

I Might Let You
Answer My Phones.

Where You Going
To Keep A Fleet Of Trucks

In The Projects, Brother?

That's A Very Good Idea, Arthur

But Every Good Businessperson
Needs A Plan.

I Told You My Plan.

Sit Down, Arthur.

That Was Not A Plan.

That Was An Aspiration.

What You Want To Do Requires
Long-Term Financial Planning.

You Need To Learn More
About Business Loans

And Accounting And Personnel.

You Have To Study
Whether You Go To College Or Not.

There Are A Lot Of Opportunities

And They Don't All
Require College.

You Don't Have To Sell
Hamburgers Either.

No, You Don't.

You Can Sell Chicken
Or Tacos Or Something.

Lance, Why Don't
You Tell Everybody

What You Want To Do.

Uh, Sweetie...

You Keeping A Secret?

Lance Wants
To Be An Architect.

He's Going To Design
Our Dream House.

That's Wonderful, Lance

But To Be An Architect,
You Have To Do Well

In Mathematics, Physics
And Drawing.

Lance, My Man,
From Your Grades

It Seems You Are Doing
Very Little Mathematics

And I'm Not Saying You're
Not Going To Pass Physics

But If You Are,
You Should Be Taking It.

Well, See

I'm Just Starting To Gear Up
On My Big Academic Push.

The Last Time I Saw You
Draw Something

Was In The Seventh Grade

And I Believe It Was
A Sherman t*nk.

A t*nk?

I Hope You Don't Think
We'll Live In A t*nk.

No, Baby, All Of My Ideas
Are Up Here.

You Better Get Some
Of Those Ideas Up There

Down On Some Paper.

Next Semester,
I'll Take Physics.

I'll Draw That House
I Said I Would Draw.

Y'all Wait Till
Y'all See The Rotunda.

Rotunda.

Rotunda, Yeah.

Herman:
Whatever That Is.

What Are You Doing?

Huh?

What Are You Doing?

(Groans)

I Thought You Said This Thing
Was Self-Cleaning.

It Is, Darling.

And Yourself Is Cleaning It.

Ah!

Hi, Cousins.

How Are You Doing?

How Was
School Today?

It Was Good.

Me And Some
Of My Friends

Were Talking With Miss Hobbs
About College.

She Said If We
Wanted To Go

Options Were Available.

She's Right.

When I First Came Here

You People Didn't Look
That Good To Me.

But You Welcomed Me,
Made Me Feel At Home

Gave Me Curfew, Gave Me
Some Powerful Connections.

You Still Didn't Look

All That Good To Me.

But Now That My Vision's
Starting To Clear Up

You're Starting
To Look Pretty Nice.

And Just In Case
I Do Decide To Go To College

I'm Studying.

Oops.

She's Trying
To Get Into College?

She Can't Even
Get Out Of The Door.

Well, Dear, If She's
Going To Go To College

How's She Going To Pay For It?

That's The Least Of Her Worries.

I Beg Your Pardon?

Don't Be Silly.

She'll Work.

She's Going To Work?

Work In The Post Office
Like I Did.

Dear, You Worked
In The Post Office

During The Christmas Holidays.

Where There's A Will,
There's A Way.

You Know That.

How Is She Going To Pay
For The College, Dear?

All She Needs Is The Will.

Somebody's Got To Make Up Their
Mind That We're Going To Pay

For Her To Go To College.

Working In The Post Office,
Hat Checking--

Those Are Fine,
Little Incidental Things

But She Didn't Say
Community College.

She Didn't Say She Wanted
You To Pay For It Either.

But She Told Us
She Was Studying Hard.

"I Didn't Like You
In The Beginning

But I Like You Now,"
Like She's Doing Us A Favor.

I Don't Think I Like Her Now...

I'm Just Saying,
Let's Make Up Our Minds.

Are We Going
To Pay For This Or Not?

Don't Give Me That
About The Post Office

'Cause You The Only One
Look Cute In The Post Office.

Speaking Of Post Office,
Why Don't We Play That?
