Chachi?

Mom, what are you doing?

Hi, sweetie, you left your key on the desk
and I was going to...

It was coming out anyway, so I thought I'd
drop it over first.

Oh, um, Chachi, this is Jim Stenfield.

Jim, this is my son, Chachi.

Hello there, young man.

Hi.

Is that a face, Jim?

Oh, nice face.

You too.

Jim is in ladies' shoes.

He sells them.

Oh, I got it.

Oh, what a mess.

Louisa.

Hiya, Al.

Oh, hi, Louisa.

Oh, there's a mess.

Okay.

Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you.

See you later, Mom.

Al Delvecchio, Jim Stenfield.

Hi, nice to meet you.

Glad to meet you.

You look great, Louisa.

You too, Al.

Nah, nah, water the sink.

My hair won't lay down.

Yeah, well, I think we'd better go.

Oh, okay, fine.

Goodbye, Al.

Bye-bye.

That's my son's boss.

Did you see the size of his feet?

Hey, Al, what's wrong?

Look at me.

Your mother saw my feet.

She saw your feet?

Wow.

Come on, Al.

My mother's grown up.

It's okay.

Well, Chachi, I didn't want her to see me like this.

What's the big deal?

Now, you're getting all upset over nothing.

I see.

You're getting all upset over nothing.

You like my mother, don't you?

Don't be ridiculous.

My mother likes you, too, Al.

You know what?

You should come over sometime.

Yeah, like I did the last time, huh?

You remember that?

She went out on a date.

I made a big fool of myself.

I promise that'll never happen again, okay?

Listen, I'll tell you what.

Tomorrow night, we're having dinner at home.

Why don't you just drop by?

Oh, Chachi, your mother, she likes to go
out with handsome guys, you know?

No, I think she'd be interested in you.

No, no, I didn't mean it that way.

What I meant was... You're as good-looking as that guy.

You mean that, Chachi?

Don't make me say it twice, Al.

I never could do that.

Al, what a surprise!

Hey, look who it is, it's Al Delvecchio,
and he's wearing shoes.

Al, I didn't expect you, I'm a mess.

You're never a mess, Louisa.

I just came by to tell Chachi that he
could come in 15 minutes later tomorrow.

Oh, isn't that nice of him to come all the
way down here and tell me that?

What a guy.

What about the flowers?

The flowers, yes.

They're for Chachi, too.

Thanks, Al.

Um, I want you to do me a favor, put these in a vase.

I gotta run, okay?

I'll tell Mrs. Pooley you're not coming up to play cards.

Hey, Mrs. Parilli, my mom ain't coming up to play cards!

The flowers were really for you.

Oh, wow, how sweet.

Ah!

Garlic and oregano, right?

Oh, hey, that's my spaghetti.

Come on, why don't you have some?

I got plenty left over.

Come on, don't bother with me.

No, I don't really care for anything.

I'll just give it a little taste, that's all.

Try them out, see how you make it.

Oh, you heard that?

Mmm, mmm.

Bellissimo.

Oh, mmm.

You use real tomatoes, I could tell.

Oh, fresh tomatoes, how fresh.

Not like other people out of the can.

No, no, they call that cooking, huh?

Mmm.

You use a little more oregano than I do.

Of course, I use more garlic than you do,
but I do live alone.

These tomatoes, please.

Where'd you get them?

Oh, uh, Spinole's over on 3rd.

Oh, yeah.

Listen, you ever go down to the docks of
those produce markets there?

No, is it better?

Oh, there's a stand there, let me tell you.

They got tomatoes.

They're so tender, they melt in your hands.

And with taste.

Well, uh, maybe I should go down there sometime.

Well, I go every Friday morning, and I'm going tomorrow.

You wouldn't want to go with me.

I'd love to, it's a date.

A date?

A date, yeah, okay.

I'll, I'll, I'll pick you up at 5 O'clock in the morning.

You gotta get dirty, that's when the good stuff comes in.

Okay, Al, I'll be ready and waiting at 5.

Here we go, we get there, the fresh of the tomatoes.

I almost walked out with your napkin.

I did, but I'm back.

Al.

Yeah?

The fork.

Oh, that's yours too.

That's, that's a nice design.

I, I, I like that good silver, it's, full moon out there.



Good night, Louisa.

Hi, hi, hi, Marion.

Hello, Al.

Well, I came over because I wanted to talk
about something very important.

Oh.

Well, I'll go upstairs and leave you two alone.

Well, please don't leave, Marion.

It's you I want to talk to.

Al, whenever you have something serious
and important to discuss, I mean,

you're always talking over with me, you know, man to man.

Howard, this is not a man to man talk.

This is a man to woman talk.

But we're Lodge brothers.

I'm the grand poobah.

I'm here to help you.

Howard, Al doesn't want to talk to you, so
why don't you just accept the fact and beat it?

I want to hear Al tell me that.

Beat it, Howard.

Okay.

Okay, I'll go.

Something very exciting happened at work
today, but I'm not going to tell you.

You can sit here, and I will sit here.

Okay, thank you, Marion.

All right, Al.

Now, what is it?

Well, it's about me and Louisa.

How long have you two been dating?

Almost a month.

Well, you can't call it really dating.

What we do is we go out and shop for food, then
we take it home and cook it, then we eat the food.

I put on 10 pounds as we started doing this.

So, is that the problem?

No, no, Marion, that's not the problem.

What I want to know is, when you married
Howard, did you think he was handsome?

Oh, my, yes.

Oh, his brown wavy hair, piercing eyes.

Oh, he just dazzled me.

Would you have still married him even if
you didn't think he was good looking?

Al, you know, when you pick someone to spend
the rest of your life with, it's not a beauty contest.

It's what's inside a man.

You don't have to worry about that.

You are the warmest, kindest, most sincere person I know.

What else?

Oh, lots of things.

Oh, thanks, Marion.

Well, that did it.

I'm going to do it.

Saturday night, after we have the lasagne,
I'm going to propose to Louisa.

Oh, Al, that is wonderful.

Oh, you have put on a lot of weight.

I'll see you at the church.

Hey, Al.

Chachi, Chachi, Chachi.

Al, you're putting on weight.

Chachi, I've got to talk to you.

There comes a time in a man's life when...

Oh, ladies, I wonder if the two of you would
mind, would like to be alone and talk to each other.

Just for a minute.

No, you go right ahead.

We'll just scoot upstairs.

What's the matter?

Oh, this is so exciting.

Well, are you through with your big powwow?

Well, now you have to talk to Chachi.

He came over here to talk to Chachi?

Come upstairs.

I'll tell you all about it.

I don't want to hear about it, Marion.

I do tell you.

Hey, Chachi, sit down, will you, please?

You know, I'm an old-fashioned guy, Chachi.

And if this was the old country,
and if your mother had a father,

I would be talking to him right now instead of to you.

What I'm really getting at is I'm asking for your
permission to ask your mother for her hand in marriage.

Marriage?

You and my mother together?

You started us out.

Al, I figured you'd take her to dinner, a movie.

Maybe you'd drink out of the same glass.

But marriage?

Chachi, I'm not some fly-by-night, you know.

I own property.

I got a paid-in-full insurance policy.

Of course, my mother's a beneficiary,
but we could change that.

Marriage?

Chachi, I got money at the bank.

Here's my bank book.

This doesn't matter to me, Al.

Oh.

Chachi, Chachi, I promise you,
I'll always be good to your mother.

I'll never let one day pass by that I
won't tell her how much I love her.

Marriage as in, honey, I'm home, and it'll be you?

I know, Chachi.

I really stunned you.

I know that.

Listen, here's what I'll do.

I'll go home to my place, and I won't do a thing.

I'm just going to wait for you to make up
your mind, and when you do, when you've

got your decision all made up, then you
call me up and let me know, okay, Chachi?

Al, wait.

Yeah, Chachi.

I'll tell you something, Al.

You know, when my mother first started
dating, it really upset me.

But then, you know, I realized that my
mother needs somebody.

So, if my mother's going to marry anyone,
Al, she couldn't do any better than you.

Oh, Chachi.

You mean that?

Yeah, I mean it.

Son.

You stay up as late as you want.

Oh, Chachi, did he tell you?

Oh, yeah, Mrs. C, yeah.

And I gave him my blessing.

Oh, that's great.

I know that face.

That's not a happy face.

Yeah, um, you see, he asked me,
but he still has to ask my mother.

And she's going to turn him down flat.

Can I run away from home?

I'm not going to stay where I'm not wanted.

I'm running away from home.

He's running away, Dad.

You going to let me go?

Yes, good luck, son.

And don't forget to ride.

Well, I'm really going.

Goodbye.

Eddie has been gone for over an hour,
and there's no sign of him.

Warren Cleaver, you never should have let
him go out that door in the first place.

I just don't understand what went wrong
with my child's psychology.

It always worked, I'll leave it to Beaver.

I'm sorry I ran away.

There's no place like TV Land.

Zip, zilch, zero.

That's carbs we're talking, because
sugar-free jello gelatin has none.

Because a whole lot of nothing has never been so tempting.

Zero carbs, sugar-free jello gelatin, because it's magic.

What does New Year's mean to you?

To make a lot more money than I did last year.

Definitely football.

Resolutions.

And more resolutions.

It's a time to hope for the best, again.

To help you at this time of reflection,
you can now have a free copy of the King

James version of the Holy Bible when you call this number.

In it, you'll find how the Savior's teachings provide
direction for finding greater happiness throughout the year.

New Year's is a time to reflect.

It's when I sit down to figure out the
things I want to do, or maybe should do.

I think it's a happy time of the year.

Resolutions I'm determined to stick with this year.

It's a time to simplify.

It's a time when I hope for better things.

Just call this number or talk to your Mormon
neighbor for your free copy of the Holy Bible.

It's a gift to you from The Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter-day Saints to help you find greater happiness this year.

It's a time to make resolutions that'll
make me a better person.

Call now for your free copy of the Holy Bible.

I'm just like you.

I work hard every day.

Back pain or not.

Because I get big relief from the new Icy Hot.

Backpatch.

Bigger than ordinary patches.

First, it's icy to dull the pain,
then hot to relax it away.

New Icy Hot Backpatch.

Count on it.

Oh, you are my sunshine.

You are my sunshine.

Oh, my only sunshine.

You are my sunshine.

It's everybody.

Happy New Year.

We're happy now.

Okay, or anything you like, today it's on me.

Thanks, Al.

Hey.

Oh, Chachi.

Oh, boy, Al's really flying high, isn't he?

I think tonight he's going to pop the question.

Really?

I don't know what to do.

I mean, I don't know whether to stop him and
spare his feelings or just let him find out for himself.

Well, sometimes you have to stand back and
let things take their own course.

Not me, boy.

I see what I want, and I go for it.

Jenny.

Yes.

I'm a teacher, and you're a student.

It's unseemly.

Call it what you like, but I say we go for it.

You know, they say that people who marry
after 40 tend to be older on their

anniversary than those who marry at a younger age.

How can you be so sure your mother's going
to turn down now?

I mean, how do you know?

Because I know my mother.

And I know what it's like to be in love.

Sure, throw it in my face.

I don't see any of the signs of love.

Like what?

What?

Like, uh, like my mother.

She sleeps well.

She eats well.

She never talks about the guy.

Now, I think they're just friends.

And Al's getting carried away.

Oh, Al's setting himself up for a heartache.

I'm afraid Al doesn't have a prayer.

Not a prayer.

Not a prayer.

Not a prayer.

Is there anybody here?

No.

Uh-huh.

Is that you, Al?

I guess so.

Oh.

My ears are listening.

What's wrong?

Nothing.

Why do you ask?

Why do I ask?

You're sitting here alone, 2 O'clock in
the morning, in the dark.

You don't even know who it is.

Fonz, nothing's wrong.

Oh, sure.

I almost made a fool of myself.

I was going to ask Louisa to marry me.

Yeah, but you didn't.

You bet I didn't.

Who needs that?

Hey, you sure don't.

What am I, some kind of jerk?

I mean, I'm perfectly happy the way I am.

Why would I want to go spoil?

I can tell you.

Why ruin this?

Yeah.

You know, Fonz, you and me, we got the right idea.

You know, we're single and free.

Yeah.

That's us.

Free like a bird.

Nothing to tie us down.

We want to go, we go.

We want to stay, we stay.

That's the way to live.

I can dig freedom.

I can dig freedom.

I mean, think of all them slobs in their
beds with their wives sharing their lives, right?

No strings tied to the sky, boy.

How?

Face it, your life is perfection.

You work here alone.

You go home alone.

You watch TV alone.

You have dinner alone.

And what happens if you fall asleep in
front of that TV, huh?

There's no lovely woman there to nudge you
and say, hey, honey, come on to bed.

I mean, why clutter up your life with a woman
who can share your joys and your burdens?

And you know the best part about it now.

Fonz, what's the best part?

Oh, the best part is you can have this for
the rest of your life, every hour,

every minute, every second, until you die.

And you wanted to ruin all this by proposing to Louisa?

Whoa.

But I didn't.

No, you didn't.

Fonz?

Yes?

I want something to nudge me.

I want a life, Fonz!

Go and get around.

He is so easy.

Hey, I'm coming.

Oh, hi, Josh.

I hope I'm not disturbing you.

No, how do you get up and answer the door anyway?

Al, what are you doing here?

It's 2 O'clock in the morning.

I came over because I've got to talk to
you about something.

Josh?

What?

Oh.

Oh, this is...

You poor guy.

Uh, Al, you want some coffee, a little roll?

No, I didn't come here to eat.

What kind of roll?

I came here because I've got to tell you something, Louisa.

Well, tell me something.

Well, I don't know how to say it.

Well, you know how your spaghetti sauce is
sweeter than mine, and mine is more gorgonzola?

Is it more garlicky than yours?

Yes.

Well, I mixed the two together, and you know what?

They tasted great.

The blend was good.

And I was thinking, I said, you know what?

Sauces and people, they're a lot alike.

You mix two different people together,
the blend makes even a better combination.

Al, this two different people idea, do you
have any two particular people in mind?

No.

Yes, I do, Louisa.

I know you go out with a lot of handsome guys.

I mean, like that shoe salesman and that doctor.

I know I'm not as good.

Looking as they are.

Oh, I wouldn't say that.

Well, I gotta tell you though,
this last month, I found out something

important in my life that's been missing,
and that something is you.

Louisa, I love you.

Oh, Al.

No, no, please, please don't interrupt me.

This is hard enough for me to say.

I love Chachi a lot too, like he was my own son.

Boy, I'd give anything if he was my son.

He'd just see us together, going to
baseball games, going fishing,

buying matching outfits.

Louisa, I make a good living.

I could be a good provider for you and Chachi.

You'd be there when I needed you.

I'd be there when you needed me.

Would you see what I'm saying?

Will you marry me?

Oh, Al.

Oh, I don't want to live.

The kids are right.

How high up are we?

Al.

I know.

We could still be good friends.

Al, what I started to say was, yes, I'll marry you.

You said yes?

Yes, because I love you.

You are sweet and caring, and you make me laugh.

I love the man named Al Delvecchio.

I'm Al Delvecchio.

I know.

Louisa.

I can't wait to tell my mother.

Al, Al, wait.

You can use the phone.

No, no, she's in church praying.

At 2 O'clock in the morning?

She's been there ever since we started dating.

Okay, okay, Al, but hurry back because
we've got to make plans.

Yeah, we've got a lot of plans.

Don't go away and I'll be back.

Okay.

Chach, come on out here.

What happened, Ma?

How bad did it take you?

I'm not bad, Chach.

We're getting married.

You said yes?

I had to.

I love him.

Are you mad?

No.

No.

Mom, I just don't understand.

I mean, you never acted like you loved him.

What was I supposed to do?

I call him every second on the phone and
make Google, Are you wise, Adam?

Yeah.

Chach.

Love at 18 and love at four.

Over 18.

They may look different, Chachi, but they feel the same.

Are you real upset?

Oh, Mom, why should I be upset?

Al is a great guy.

Yeah, I know that, honey, but I mean,
I thought you'd be upset that I was

getting married because it's been the two
of us for so long.

Oh, Mom.

Can I be best man?

Oh, Chachi, you are my best man.

Give me a hug.

Oh, Chachi, you are my best man.

$7.50 for a small beer?

Don't you think that's a little high?

No, but you are for paying it.

Do what I do.

Take a six-pack of your favorite beer and pour it
into one of these amusing and absorbent foam gloves.

Instead of wasting time and money in the
concession stand, you'll be shouting, we're number drunk.

Always thinking so you don't have to.

Ah, that's good finger.
