Hey, what did you think
about the history test today?

Pretty easy. I
think I'll get .

Who is the iron-handed king
who later became a coward?

Charlemagne.

I think I got a . You're
sure it's Charlemagne.

Yeah, I remember that he was a
coward by thinking of a Chinese menu.

Huh?

Chicken Charlemagne.

My luck. We only
eat in Italian places.

How about number seven?

When was the Battle
of Hastings fought?

.

Well, maybe I got an .

You're sure it's .

Yeah, I remember
that one by ages.

Now, my brother is
and my mother is now .

I would've never
gotten that one right.

My dumb brother is only nine.

How about number
four. The Queen...

Why don't we quit
while you're still passing?

Yeah, is a good grade.

Hey, look.

Wow, this must be my lucky day.

Wow! Look at those jewels.

I'll bet they're diamonds.

It's even got a safety catch.

That means it's
really expensive.

I wonder who lost it.

Well, finders keepers I guess.

You ought to look at the lost and
found column in tomorrow's paper.

That pin looks very special.

I'll look.

Mmm. Does that smell good.

Would you close the oven door?

Hey! Look what I...
Don't slam the door.

You dummy.

What's the matter?

Oh, forget it.

Nice going.

What did I do?

"What did I do?" You ruined it.

What is it?

It was Mom's birthday cake.

Mom's birthday.

That's right. It's today.
You forgot, didn't you?

No, no, no, I didn't forget.

What did you get her?

Something really nice.

What?

You'll see.

It's something
very, very special.

Special.

Oh, and then, there's
the one about...

♪ Happy birthday to you

♪ Happy birthday to you

♪ Happy birthday, dear Mom

♪ Happy birthday to you ♪

I was beginning to
think you'd all forgotten.

Oh. Make a wish and
blow out the candles.

There's eight of them.

Yeah, one for
every... Never mind.

"Happy birthday, Sylvia"?

Well, we tried to
bake you a cake, Mom.

Yeah, but the galloping
gourmet ruined it.

So I ran down to the bakery.

They were just closing and
Sylvia was all they had left.

Her husband
forgot to pick it up.

I'd like to see the cake
Sylvia bakes for him

on his next birthday.

Now...

This is a little collaboration
from Keith and me.

Oh.

A four-slice toaster.

I did do a little hinting.

A little?

Oh, thank you both so much.

You're welcome.

It's just beautiful.

Well...

Uh, well, that one's from me.

Reuben, you didn't have to.

I know.

I'm glad you did.

A picture of you.

It's an old one.

Funny, just this
morning, Mom said,

"I wish I had a
four-slice toaster

"and a picture of Reuben."

Danny...

I thought it might
look nice on the piano.

Yeah, with a sign
under it reading,

"Appearing nightly for dinner."

Well, Danny, looks like
you're the only one left.

I'm sure you have
a gift for Mom.

Of course I do.

Well, we can't wait to see it.

Happy birthday, Mom.

Thank you, Danny.

Oh, Danny, it's a beautiful pin.

Where did you get it?

Oh, I picked it up somewhere.

Isn't it lovely?

Yes. It really is.

Well, I didn't want to get
you anything like a toaster.

Danny.

Oh, I mean, I just
wanted to get you

something very, very special.

Well, you certainly did,
and I'll cherish it. Thank you.

I thank all of you.

It's been a lovely birthday.

Here, let me get it.

All right, all right.
Let's have it.

Not that. You know what I mean.

What?

The pin, the pin!
Where did you get it?

Since when did you join the FBI?

Since you started
spending money on Mom.

Last year, you gave
her aftershave lotion.

Well, they were
all out of cologne.

Besides, I've matured
a lot since last year.

I've come to appreciate what
a wonderful mother we have.

Always there when we
need her, devoted, unselfish.

Please, I'm trying to
cut down on sweets.

Well, if you'll excuse me.

I'll be in the living room,

listening to Mom talk
about the pin I gave her.

Hello? Oh, hi, Punky.

Did you read the
newspaper today?

Uh, no, we don't have
current events till Thursday.

I mean the lost
and found column.

Uh, no.

Why?

What?

Oh, uh, yeah.

Thanks for calling, Punky.

Bye-bye.

What was that all about?

Oh, uh. Nothing,
nothing, nothing.

I just missed a
homework assignment.

Hey, done with the paper?

Still reading the sports page,
but you can have the rest.

Thanks.

"Lost, pearl earring,
"brown attache case,

"eyeglasses, wristwatch,
"alligator wallet,

"diamond ring, necklace..."

Oh, no.

Lose something?

Give me that.

"Lost, jeweled brooch."

That means pin.

"If found, return
to Mrs. Pierson,

" North Beverly Drive.

"Reward, $ ."

$ . Not bad.

Where'd you find it?

On the way home from school.

You know, that
really is a shame.

Mom loved it so much, too.

I can't return it.

You have to. It's not yours.

Mom will understand.

No, she won't.
She'll be crushed.

She thinks I bought it for her.

I can't tell her.

You're right.

I'll tell her for you.

No, wait, wait, wait.

We can't hurt Mom.

We?

You got to help me. Please?

Well, uh...

Okay.

Now, the way I see it,
there's only one thing to do.

You return the pin.

Buy Mom a new one
for about bucks,

then you still have $
left over from the reward.

Then you tell mom
the whole story.

Wait a minute.

$ and $ equals $ .

The reward is $ .

You want me to
help you, don't you?

Yeah.

You get a finder's fee,
and I get a helper's fee.

It's like living
with Jesse James.

♪ Woke up feeling
down this morning

♪ The blues walked
in without a warning

Okay, that was much
better. Let's call it a day, huh?

Okay, kids, time to
wash up for dinner.

Come on, you two.

Oh, Mom, come here
for a second, will you?

What's the matter?

I got something in my eye.

Oh, here. Let me see.

Yeah.

I'd ask Danny to help,
but his fingers are too fat.

I don't see anything.

Well, I feel it. It's in there.

Look up.

Uh-huh.

Down. I still don't
see anything.

Well, it, it feels like it's in
the corner of my eye now.

Well, let's go back here
where the light's better.

Ow!

What's the matter with you?

Nothing! Nothing.

Excuse me.

Ah, there it is. There it is.

I got it. Thanks.

Well?

We sure blew it.

Not we, you, you biscuit brain.

I could get an
Oscar for my acting.

I didn't have enough time.

Oh, forget it.

What are we gonna do now?

Well, she can't
wear it all the time.

I don't know. I'll
think of something.

That rotten pin.

Wish I'd found a toaster.

You can walk. I
don't have to pull you.

Come on.

I thought maybe one of
us should stay out here

and be a lookout.

Sure glad I bought her that pin.

She doesn't have much jewelry.

It's not here.

Maybe she hocked it.

There it is. Over
on the night table.

Reach up.

I got it.

We made it!

And that's the whole story.

I just didn't want to hurt Mom.

And that's the only
reason I'm helping him.

You're definitely gonna
buy Mom another pin?

Absolutely.

All right, I'll meet you
at Safeen's jewelry store

tomorrow after school.

Shouldn't we
return that pin first?

No, might be too late,
and the store will be closed.

Okay?

Okay.

I'll go along with it...

But only because I don't want
to see Mom get hurt, either.

Thanks.

The toaster's beautiful.

Good night.

Good morning.

Good morning.
See you later, Mom.

Bye, kids.

Sorry I'm late. Where's Danny?

Oh, he left early, Mom.

Oh, good. I didn't know
how I was gonna face him.

I can't find the pin he gave me.

I'm sure it's around somewhere.

Sure. You probably misplaced it.

I've looked everywhere.

I wonder if it could have
dropped off in the trash

as I was carrying
it out last night.

I think I'll take a look.

Uh, I'll go look for you, Mom.

Thanks, honey.

It's not here, Mom.

You're sure you
looked through it all?

Sorry to give you
such a messy job.

Forget it.

Oh, uh, Laurie, clean
that up for Mom, will you?

Danny will be heartbroken.

Look, sonny, I think this
one is still your best buy.

The lady you're buying it for,
what color are her eyes, huh?

I don't know. She's my mother.

Hurry up, will you?

Okay, I'll take it.

Fine.

But, uh...

Sale merchandise
is not returnable.

And you're getting
it half price, huh?

For him, you just
said the magic words.

That will be $ , tax included.

I only have $ .
Will you lend me $ ?

Here. It's all I have, and I
want to take Patty to a movie.

Don't worry, I'll pay
you back in minutes.

As soon as I get the reward.

There you go.

Here I am, and I can't
tell you how thrilled I am.

Here's your $ .

Thank you.

Uh, thank you.

And here is your pin.

So nice to find an
honest young man.

Wait a minute.

This isn't my pin.

It isn't?

No.

It's great. No reward,
and I'm out bucks.

And I'm stuck with two pins.

Well, the one you
bought is pretty.

Why don't you give this one
to Mom and tell her the story?

No, put the one you found
back in her room tonight.

Yeah, and after school tomorrow,

I can return this one and
try and get my money back.

Our money.

I thought you
said they wouldn't.

Well, we'll see what
happens after I go in there

crying and stomping
my feet and yell,

"You took advantage of a kid!"

Look, I found it.

Oh, I'm so glad, Mom.

Danny, I didn't have the
heart to tell you yesterday,

but I thought I lost your pin.

Now, you could
have told me, Mom.

You know how understanding I am.

Right on the night table.

I must have looked
there times.

Those things happen sometimes.

Glad it happened this time.

Yeah.

Imagine losing a pin like that.

Well, if you don't mind,

I'm gonna take a nice,
leisurely walk to school.

Bye, honey. Bye-bye, Mom.

Oh, Danny, I'll be able to drive
you home from school today.

I have a parent-teacher
conference.

Oh, well, thanks.

But I have something to
do after school anyway.

Bye!

Is everybody clear on the
assignments for tomorrow?

Yeah.

Good.

All right. Before I dismiss you.

Has anyone seen the notice
I put up on the bulletin board?

Well, I've lost a pin.

It's about so big,

and it has rhinestones
and red stones in it.

Mrs. Bullock, I...

Yes, Punky?

I...

I think I haven't seen it.

Well, if anyone finds it,

it has great
sentimental value to me.

Okay?

Class dismissed.

I can't believe it.

What are you gonna do?

I don't know. Yes, I do.

If my mom's wearing that pin,

I'm going to jump
out the window.

We're only on the first floor.

See? Nothing goes right for me.

Oh, no. Say your prayers.

Hi, Danny.

Hi, Mom.

Hello, Punky.

Hi, Mrs. Partridge.

Oh, isn't it beautiful?
Danny gave it to me.

Yeah, I know. I was
with him when he got it.

Punky has to go.

Right! Punky has to go.

Danny, are you all right?

Uh, sure.

But it is a little
cold in here, isn't it?

Not really.

Sure I'll help you
on with your coat.

Danny, I'm not cold, honestly.

Let's go and see your teacher.

Hello, Mrs. Partridge.

Nice to see you, Mrs. Bullock.

Nice to see you.

Danny, please.

Won't you be seated?

Thank you.

Danny.

Oh, uh, wouldn't you
be more comfortable

without your jacket, Mom?

You just said it
was cold in here.

No, I said it was cold in
the hall. It's hot in the class.

I'll hang it up for you.

That's just fine, Danny.

Oh, isn't it pretty? Danny
gave it to me for my birthday.

Danny.

I didn't mean it, Mom.

I really didn't mean it.

I had no right to
give you that pin.

It's not mine.

And you can't give away
something that's not yours.

I just got carried away
because it was your birthday.

Whose pin is it, Danny?

I found it on the sidewalk.

I didn't know it
was Mrs. Bullock's

when I gave it to you.

Thank you, Danny.

Why didn't you tell
me you found it?

I would have understood.

I know, but you
were so happy with it,

and you loved it so much.

Oh, honey.

I'm very sorry.

I understand.

You know, sometimes when
you try not to hurt someone,

you end up hurting
yourself more.

I know.

Can you forgive me, Mom?

You can forgive anyone
who acts out of love, Danny.

This one I really
bought for you.

Happy birthday.

One thing about birthday
cake, it sure goes a long way.

Well, that's the end of it.

Finally, after four days.

Most of my clients
don't feed me stale cake.

But it's delicious.

Would you like some more?

No, thanks.

You sure you wouldn't
like a third piece?

I hate a kid who counts.

Where's Danny? Maybe
he'd like the last piece.

Uh, he's upstairs,
studying, I guess.

Did he ever pay
you back that $ ?

No, no, but it's...
It's not important.

Well, now, that certainly
doesn't sound like you.

Well, I mean, I
was his age once.

I mean, I remember how it feels.

I was his age once, too,
but I forget how it feels.

Well, he's a kid, I mean,
he got a little over his head.

And two bucks is not
gonna break me, right?

I think that's very
sweet of you, Keith.

Very.

Well, Danny's had a
rough couple of days.

So why am I gonna make
his life any more miserable?

I mean, why kick a kid when
he's down, you know what I mean?

Okay, I finished your shoes.

Now what do you want me to do?
