01x16 - String of Pearls

[bunniefuu]

[Music]

from ever invented temptation and guilt

sure had kids in mind when it's time to

face the consequences of their mistakes

sometimes kids are harder on themselves

than any parent could ever be and that's

what our story's about in this episode

Oh viola beaver

[Music]

hi honey I'm home how'd you know I

bought flour before you left

Hey look I may have some patterns but

I'm not that predictable well I love

them anyway

so tough day for the mommy to be oh no

once I got Kelly off to school I

finished with the laundry and the

shopping and then I shampoo the rug and

put dinner in the oven and then I sat

down for five minutes to work on that

article I'm writing on how to throw your

spare time oh why don't we go when you

get finished with it

oh sure you don't mind waiting your

adieu why'd she have to park her bike in

the house maybe she wants to avoid

another one of your responsibilities

lectures oh honey it's their first new

bike yeah well I know this bike needs a

lap tour but don't you think chaining it

to the living room is a little bit

extreme

remember when you bought your Corvette

to practically wanted to sleep with it

in it not with it no no you go ahead

no go ahead no you are you oh yeah

they're not waiting where'd you guys do

hit my car better I thought would you

say if I told you it would be named make

you Chamber of Commerce Man of the Year

me man of the year your name engraved on

a plaque at the City Hall snack bar not

to mention a year's free dry cleaning at

Barney's they've chosen me Man of the

Year it's wonderful so proud of you but

I could have sworn we've just gotten an

invitation to go to that awards banquet

honoring Phil Davenport at the end of

the year

well actually Mary Ellen still can't

accept the award due to a technicality

yeah technically he's dead oh look Wally

if it makes any difference we're on the

selection committee and you grant built

a very close second even when he was

alive as I couldn't accept that award

everybody's coming to honor him it's

time you took your rightful place in the

community and it's good for business and

you're desperate for a replacement

exactly you know we've only got a couple

days I'll tell you what I'll think about

it

great but I have to know now if you want

the chicken or the fish I'll have

whatever Hilary who would have wanted to

thinking about it

I do my best thinking that's when I do

my best

profound conclusion you're gonna take

bad

remember when we went to see Richard

Burton in Camelot and just before the

curtain went up this guy amounts but his

part was gonna be played by an

understudy yeah

be coming to see Phil Davenport I feel

comfortable accepting the award that's

very courageous of you honey
