The Cosby Show s02e13 Episode Script

( GURGLING ) OH, RUDY! DON'T BLOW BUBBLES WITH YOUR STRAW.
OKAY.
RUDY, PUT THAT STRAW DOWN AND DRINK YOUR MILK.
OKAY, THAT'S ENOUGH.
BREAKFAST TIME IS OVER.
GET UPSTAIRS AND GET READY FOR SCHOOL.
OH DADDY, DON'T PLAY WITH YOUR STRAW.
HOW ARE YOU? OH, I DON'T KNOW.
WHEN DID YOU FINISH? DON'T EVEN TALK ABOUT IT.
THAT'S THE THIRD TIME THIS WEEK.
YOU KNOW WHAT I THINK? I THINK THAT LITTLE BABIES WANT TO ONLY BE BORN FROM 2:00 TO 5:00 A.
M.
-- WHENEVER THERE'S A BLIZZARD ARCTIC WINDS ARE BLOWING AND THE TEMPERATURE'S 'CAUSE EVERY TIME I'VE PULLED ONE OUT THE BABY LOOKED AT ME AND DID LIKE THIS.
MAYBE WE SHOULD FORGET ABOUT THAT MOVIE TONIGHT.
NO, I'M FINE.
YOU'RE TOO TIRED.
I'M FINE.
YOU ALWAYS SAY THIS, THEN YOU FALL ASLEEP.
HOW ABOUT FRIDAY NIGHT? LET ME SEE HERE.
"REGIONAL FORECAST, WARM AND NO BABIES FRIDAY.
" FRIDAY IT IS.
MOM? YEAH.
CAN WE GO SHOPPING FOR A NEW SWEATER? VANESSA, YOU GOT SWEATERS FOR CHRISTMAS.
BUT ROBERT'S SEEN THEM ALL.
WHY DON'T YOU WEAR THEM INSIDE OUT? THIS IS FOR THE SCHOOL DANCE ON FRIDAY.
I'VE EVEN GOT ONE PICKED OUT.
OH? IT'S EXACTLY LIKE DENISE'S.
THEN ASK DENISE IF YOU CAN BORROW HERS.
SHE WON'T LET ME HAVE IT.
IF YOU ASK HER NICELY, YOU MIGHT BE SURPRISED.
ALL RIGHT, I'LL TRY IT.
DENISE?! WOULD YOU LIKE TO BET ON THIS ONE? IT COULD HAPPEN.
DENISE WENT THROUGH THAT WITH SONDRA.
SHE MIGHT BE UNDERSTANDING.
I'LL BET YOU A BOX OF POPCORN AT THE MOVIE-- A LARGE JUMBO BOX.
I WILL TAKE THAT BET.
DENISE: ARE YOU KIDDING?! NO WAY! BUT DENISE, I ASKED NICELY.
IT'S FOR THE SCHOOL DANCE ON FRIDAY.
I HAVEN'T EVEN WORN IT.
THEN WEAR IT TODAY.
NO! BYE, DAD.
- PLEASE?! - NO! I LIKE IT WITH BUTTER, NO SALT.
( SLAM ) YOU SLAMMED THE DOOR! ( CACKLING ) I HAD NO IDEA YOU WERE SLEEPING.
YEAH.
JUST MAKING SURE IT'S CLOSED.
SIT DOWN.
I ALWAYS SAY "MAKE SURE THE DOOR IS CLOSED" BUT SOMEHOW YOU CONFUSE THAT WITH SEALING IT.
IT'S NOT NECESSARY TO DO THAT.
I HAVE THE WINDOWS CRACKED LIKE THIS SO WHEN YOU SLAM IT, THE WALLS DON'T CRASH IN.
I LOVE IT WHEN WE STUDY TOGETHER.
ME, TOO.
I WISH WE HAD ALL OUR CLASSES TOGETHER.
ME, TOO.
HEY, ROBERT.
HEY, THEO.
KEEP IT QUIET.
WE'RE STUDYING.
WE HAVE A BIG HISTORY TEST TOMORROW.
I WAS JUST GETTING SOME JUICE.
DID YOU HEAR WHO'S PLAYING AT THE DANCE FRIDAY? NO.
THE SPIKES.
WOW! THEY'VE GOT SAXOPHONES.
DID YOU HEAR WHO'S DOING THE DECORATIONS? WHO? WHAT ARE YOU GUYS STUDYING, ANYWAY? THE WAR OF 1912.
VANESSA.
I WON'T BOTHER YOU BECAUSE I KNOW A LOT HAPPENED IN THAT WAR.
HI, ROBERT.
HI, VANESSA.
HEY, DENISE.
DON'T GO INTO THE LIVING ROOM.
I WOKE DAD, AND HE'S CRANKY.
UH, EXCUSE ME, WE'RE STUDYING.
THAT'S GREAT, BUT I TOLD MONICA I'D CALL HER.
CALL FROM UPSTAIRS.
HEY, I'M HERE.
WE ARE STUDYING.
YOU KNOW, THE BIG WAR OF 1912? YOU CAN TAKE A BREAK FOR ONE PHONE CALL.
WE CANNOT TAKE A BREAK.
WE HAVE A TEST TO STUDY FOR.
COME ON, VANESSA.
OKAY, WE'LL CONSIDER TAKING A BREAK IF YOU CONSIDER LOANING ME THAT CERTAIN ITEM OF CLOTHING I ASKED FOR EARLIER.
WHY SHOULD I LEND YOU SOMETHING THAT'S MINE TO USE SOMETHING THAT'S OURS? ( RING ) HUXTABLE RESIDENCE.
HI, JANET.
HOLD ON A SECOND.
SHOULD I TELL JANET TO CALL BACK? WE'LL TAKE A BREAK.
YOU SAID YOU COULDN'T TAKE A BREAK.
IT'S FOR ME.
DON'T GIVE HER THAT PHONE.
GIVE ME IT.
THEO.
THEO! I'M OUT OF THIS.
EXCUSE ME.
HI, JANET.
WHEN DID YOU HEAR THIS? UH-UH.
SHE'S DOING THIS BECAUSE SHE FOUND OUT I WAS WEARING MY RED SKIRT.
THANKS A LOT, THEO.
ROBERT, YOU HAVE ANY SISTERS? NO.
GO HOME TONIGHT AND THANK YOUR PARENTS.
( TELEVISION ) THIS EXERCISE CLASS IS FOR COOL PEOPLE-- PEOPLE WHO DON'T NEED PAIN TO HAVE GAIN.
I'LL TELL YOU WHAT YOU CAN DO BUT YOU DO WHAT YOU WANT.
JUST BE COOL ABOUT IT.
HI, DADDY.
ARE THESE YOUR FRIENDS? YES, THEY WANTED TO WATCH TV.
THEY'RE TRYING TO GET FIT? YES.
THEY DON'T LOOK LIKE THEY'RE INTO IT SO WHY DON'T YOU TAKE THEM UPSTAIRS AND READ TO THEM? OKAY.
ALL RIGHT.
( TELEVISION ) LET'S STRETCH THAT LOWER BACK.
RAISE YOUR ARMS.
IF YOU WANT TO, RAISE THEM HIGH ABOVE YOUR HEAD.
IF NOT, THAT'S COOL.
NOW BEND AT YOUR KNEES AND TOUCH YOUR PALMS TO YOUR TOES.
THAT'S COOL.
YOU DON'T HAVE TO KEEP YOUR KNEES STRAIGHT IF YOU DON'T WANT TO.
JUST REMEMBER-- IF YOU DON'T ATTACK YOUR HEART, YOUR HEART WON'T ATTACK YOU.
HI, CLIFF.
HOW YOU FEELING? I AM READY TO GO TO THAT MOVIE TONIGHT.
OH.
NOT TOO TIRED? NO, I GOT PLENTY OF SLEEP AND I JUST FINISHED MY EXERCISES.
IT'S A WONDERFUL FILM.
CARLA SAID IT HAS WON MAJOR AWARDS THROUGHOUT EUROPE.
I'M NOT INTERESTED SO MUCH IN THE AWARDS AS I AM IN THIS JUMBO, BIG BOX OF POPCORN THAT MY WIFE IS GOING TO BUY ME TONIGHT.
WE'LL GET YOU A LITTLE STINKY POPCORN.
DON'T BE CHEAP.
DON'T COME BACK WITH THE LITTLE BOX THING.
I WANT THAT TUB.
THAT TUB THAT THEY HAVE WHERE YOU HAVE TO CLIMB IN AND EAT YOUR WAY OUT.
THAT'S WHAT I WANT.
THEO: WHAT'S UP, VANESSA? THEO, CAN I TALK TO YOU FOR A MINUTE? WHAT'S WRONG? GOT MY HISTORY TEST BACK.
AND? WHOA, THIS IS A D! I KNOW.
I'VE NEVER GOTTEN A D BEFORE.
I'VE SEEN THEM, BUT NOT NEXT TO MY OWN NAME.
AND IT'S IN RED.
THAT'S THE WORST KIND TO GET.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED, THEO.
ROBERT AND I STUDIED HARD.
YEAH, I SAW YOU.
WHEN SHOULD I TELL MOM AND DAD? THE SOONER, THE BETTER.
THEY MIGHT NOT LET ME GO TO THE DANCE WITH ROBERT.
VANESSA, THERE'S A CHANCE YOU MAY NEVER DANCE AGAIN.
THEY CAN'T GET MAD.
THIS IS JUST ONE LITTLE D.
VANESSA, WITH MOM AND DAD, THERE ARE NO LITTLE D'S.
GOOD LUCK.
* VANESSA GOT A D.
* RUDY, WHAT DO YOU THINK? I LIKE THAT.
YOU'VE SAID THAT ABOUT EVERYTHING.
I LIKE EVERYTHING.
BECAUSE YOU DON'T KNOW HOW TO DRESS.
I KNOW HOW TO DRESS MYSELF.
I MEAN WHEN YOU MATCH CLOTHES AND LOOK GOOD.
I LOOK GOOD! NO, I MEAN WHEN NEVER MIND.
WHAT'S THIS? NEVER MIND, RUDY.
WHY DOES IT HAVE A BIG RED D ON IT? FORGET ABOUT IT! NONE OF THESE SWEATERS ARE RIGHT.
DENISE? DENISE? DENISE? I REALLY HAD A GOOD TIME.
I DID, TOO.
I REALLY LIKED THE SPIKES.
I LIKED THE SPIKES, TOO.
THE SAXOPHONES WERE GREAT.
UM WELL, I GUESS THIS IS GOOD NIGHT.
I GUESS.
VANESSA! HOW WAS THE DANCE? UM GOOD YEAH, GREAT.
GOOD.
VANESSA, WE NEED TO TALK NOW.
CAN WE DO THIS LATER? THERE'S A SWEATER MISSING FROM MY CLOSET.
THERE IS?! YEAH, THE PURPLE ONE.
COULD YOU WAIT IN THE KITCHEN? OKAY.
FIX YOURSELF A SNACK.
OKAY, THANKS.
HE WAS GOING TO KISS ME.
YOU RUINED IT.
TAKE YOUR COAT OFF.
I'M COLD.
YOU'RE IN THE HOUSE.
I'M COLD IN THE HOUSE.
YOU'LL TAKE THAT COAT OFF EVENTUALLY AND I'LL BE THERE.
TAKE THAT COAT OFF OR I'M TAKING IT OFF FOR YOU.
ALL RIGHT.
HERE.
YOU TOOK MY SWEATER.
I DIDN'T THINK YOU'D MIND.
WHEN YOU ASKED ME, I SAID, "NO WAY.
" I TOOK YOUR SWEATER AND I'M SORRY.
YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO COMPLAIN IN FRONT OF ROBERT.
YOU'RE UNBELIEVABLE! ARE YOU FIGHTING? YES! NO! WHAT'S THE MATTER? THAT'S MY SWEATER.
I LIKE IT.
VANESSA, I WANT THAT SWEATER BACK IN MY CLOSET IN ONE MINUTE.
AND I MEAN IT.
TELL ME WHAT THE MOVIE WAS ABOUT, PLEASE.
NO.
COME ON, TELL ME WHAT NO! I COULDN'T HELP IT IF I FELL ASLEEP.
NOW, COME ON.
ALL RIGHT, SO WHEN I WAS SITTING THERE AND I HAD MY POPCORN HAD A BIG SODA I WAS READY-- FIRED UP.
NOW THE THING COMES ON THE SCREEN AND I DON'T KNOW HOW LONG IT WAS THAT I WATCHED TWO MEN SITTING IN A CAFE DRINKING COFFEE AND SMOKING CIGARETTES, TALKING: ( FAKE FRENCH ACCENT ) I HAD TO CHECK THE BOTTOM OF THE SCREEN TO FIND OUT WHAT THEY'RE SAYING.
SO, NATURALLY I SAID "OKAY, SOMETHING'S GOING TO HAPPEN.
" THEN SOMEBODY CAME BY WITH A BICYCLE.
WHAT WAS IT ALL ABOUT? THEY WEREN'T IN THE SAME CAFE.
IT WAS A DIFFERENT CAFE THAN AT THE BEGINNING AND A LOT HAPPENED IN BETWEEN.
WHILE I SLEPT? YES.
BECAUSE THERE WAS NOTHING GOING ON WHEN I WAS AWAKE.
OKAY, WHAT HAPPENED? I'M NOT TELLING.
PLEASE TELL ME, BECAUSE WHEN WE WERE RIDING HOME YOU SAID THERE'S A LOT OF SYMBOLISM THERE WAS.
WELL, WHAT WAS IT? THE BIKE SYMBOLIZED FREEDOM.
IT WAS A VEHICLE.
WHOSE FREEDOM? NOBODY RODE IT.
IT JUST KEPT GOING BY.
OKAY, CLIFF.
TWO MEN THERE WAS PHILIPPE, WHO WORKED IN THE FACTORY.
I GOT THAT.
YOU REMEMBER HIS BEST FRIEND, JACQUES? THAT WAS ONE OF THE MOST EXCITING PARTS.
AND THEN? THERE WAS JACQUES.
WITH THE MOUSTACHE.
PHILIPPE HAD THE MOUSTACHE.
OKAY.
JACQUES WAS A POET.
HE AND PHILIPPE WERE IN LOVE WITH THE SAME WOMAN.
THERE WAS A WOMAN? YOU DIDN'T SEE THAT WOMAN? NO.
OH, CLIFF, SHE WAS GORGEOUS.
YOU'RE KIDDING.
OH, HONEY, YES, THERE WAS A WOMAN-- A GORGEOUS WOMAN.
YES, SHE WAS AND WALKED AROUND IN FLIMSY SUMMER DRESSES AND DID HER FACE LIKE THIS.
WHY DIDN'T YOU WAKE ME UP? SHE WASN'T YOUR TYPE.
WHERE DID THE WOMAN COME IN? THE WOMAN COULDN'T DECIDE WHO SHE LOVED.
SHE DROPPED THEM BOTH.
I WOULD HAVE, TOO.
ALL THEY WANTED TO DO WAS SMOKE CIGARETTES AND DRINK COFFEE.
IT WAS A BEAUTIFUL, TOUCHING LOVE STORY.
AND YOU MISSED IT.
I SURE DID.
I MISSED MY POPCORN, TOO.
BECAUSE WHEN I WOKE UP FROM THIS DEPRESSING SCENE MY POPCORN WAS GONE, AND SO WAS MY SODA.
I WANT TO KNOW WHO TOOK THAT? THE MAN ON THE BIKE? ( KNOCKING ) COME IN.
DENISE? WHAT DO YOU WANT? I DECIDED I'M NOT TAKING OFF THIS SWEATER UNTIL YOU APOLOGIZE FOR POKING ME IN THE SHOULDER.
I'M NOT APOLOGIZING.
OKAY.
WE'RE EVEN.
HEY, WAIT A MINUTE.
WE ARE NOT EVEN.
YOU'RE STILL WEARING MY SWEATER.
KNOCK IT OFF, DENISE.
I DON'T HAVE TO.
YOU'RE MAD BECAUSE THIS SWEATER LOOKS BETTER ON ME.
YEAH, RIGHT.
DON'T SHOVE ME.
I'LL SHOVE YOU ANY TIME I WANT.
IS THAT RIGHT? YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT! GET OFF! LET ME GO, DENISE! LET GO OF MY HAIR, VANESSA! NO! WHAT'S GOING ON IN THERE? FIGHT! FIGHT! LET GO! STOP.
STOP IT! STOP! NO, COME ON, STOP.
LOOK, THE TWO OF YOU ( SCREAMING ) DON'T! STOP IT!!! ALL RIGHT, THAT'S ENOUGH.
NOW STOP.
DENISE AND VANESSA, YOU BETTER STOP.
CLIFF, ARE YOU ALL RIGHT? THEY TOOK ME OUT.
RUDY, WAIT IN MY ROOM, PLEASE.
DO I HAVE TO? YES, YOU DO.
NOW? YES, NOW.
I WANT TO KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON.
SHE WENT I TOLD HER WAIT A MINUTE.
DENISE, GO FIRST.
WHY DOES SHE GO FIRST? BECAUSE I SAID SO.
SHE TOOK THE SWEATER-- THE ONE I SAID SHE COULDN'T HAVE.
STOP! STOP IT.
VANESSA, IS THIS TRUE? WELL BEFORE YOU START TO SAY NO LET ME REMIND YOU THAT YOU'RE WEARING THE EVIDENCE.
OH, YEAH.
MOM, SHE SHOVED ME.
SHE TOOK MY SWEATER.
WE HAVE RULES HERE.
WE DON'T TAKE EACH OTHER'S THINGS AND WE DON'T ATTACK EACH OTHER.
DENISE, YOU MAY NOT DRIVE YOUR CAR FOR TWO DAYS.
BUT MOM VANESSA, YOU CAN'T USE THE TELEPHONE FOR TWO DAYS.
GIVE THE SWEATER BACK.
AND YOU WILL WEAR THE SAME CLOTHES FOR TWO DAYS IN A ROW.
OH, COME ON, DAD.
VANESSA, GIVE YOUR SISTER HER SWEATER BACK.
STOP! GIVE IT BACK NICELY.
I'M SORRY, DENISE.
YOU HAVE TO GET IT CLEANED.
PAY FOR THE CLEANING WITH YOUR ALLOWANCE.
YES, MOM.
THIS IS MY SHIRT.
I BORROWED IT.
I FORGOT TO GIVE IT BACK.
YOU ALSO FORGOT TO ASK ME IF YOU COULD BORROW IT.
I'M SORRY.
AND THIS IS MY BELT.
YOU NEVER WEAR IT.
I NEVER WEAR IT BECAUSE IT'S NEVER IN MY ROOM.
CLAIR, YOU BETTER COME AND TAKE A LOOK IN HERE AND SEE IF OH, NO.
I'M JUST GOING TO TRUST THAT ANYTHING IN THAT CLOSET THAT BELONGS IN MY CLOSET WILL BE RETURNED THIS EVENING.
VANESSA, I'D LIKE TO SPEAK WITH YOU IN YOUR ROOM, PLEASE.
AND I WANT WHATEVER BELONGS TO ME IN MY CLOSET-- JUST LIKE YOUR MOTHER'S.
DAD JUST CHECKING.
VANESSA, WHAT HAS GOTTEN INTO YOU? WHAT DO YOU MEAN? I HAVE NEVER SEEN YOU BEHAVE LIKE THIS.
DENISE AND I HAVE FOUGHT OVER CLOTHES BEFORE.
YEAH, BUT NOT TO THE DEATH.
BUT I HAD TO HAVE THAT SWEATER.
WHY? LUCILLE TURNER CALLED JANET AND SAID SHE WAS WEARING HER RED SKIRT TO THE DANCE.
THAT MEANT I COULDN'T WEAR MY RED SKIRT.
I HAD TO WEAR MY GREEN PANTS.
I COULDN'T WEAR MY BLUE SWEATER AND DENISE'S SWEATER WOULD GO WITH THIS OUTFIT.
AND MOM, ROBERT LOVES ME IN THAT SWEATER.
I UNDERSTAND YOUR WANTING TO LOOK GOOD FOR ROBERT BUT WHEN YOU TAKE SOMETHING YOUR SISTER SPECIFICALLY TOLD YOU NOT TO-- THAT'S WRONG.
IT WILL NOT HAPPEN AGAIN.
GOOD.
WAIT A MINUTE.
ARE THESE MY SOCKS? I GOT THOSE FROM SONDRA.
MOM, DAD I HAVE TO SHOW YOU SOMETHING.
WHAT? MY TUXEDO? VANESSA, THIS IS A D.
I DON'T UNDERSTAND IT.
ROBERT AND I STUDIED VERY HARD FOR THAT TEST.
YOU AND ROBERT? YEAH.
WE HAVE TO CALL ROBERT.
HE'S IN THE KITCHEN.
WHAT IS HE DOING IN THE KITCHEN? I ASKED HIM TO WAIT.
HELLO, ROBERT.
HI, MRS.
HUXTABLE.
HI, DR.
HUXTABLE.
HOW ARE YOU? VANESSA SAID TO HAVE A SNACK.
SIT DOWN, VANESSA.
I WANT TO ASK YOU A QUESTION.
IT MIGHT BE PERSONAL BUT I WOULD APPRECIATE AN HONEST ANSWER.
WHAT GRADE DID YOU GET ON THIS LAST HISTORY TEST? A D+.
I'D LIKE TO TALK TO BOTH OF YOU ABOUT STUDYING.
DAD, ROBERT AND I STUDIED A LOT.
STUDIED A LOT.
I SEE YOU THERE WITH THE BOOKS OPEN AND YOU'RE SITTING TOGETHER.
ONCE IN A WHILE, YOU TURN THE PAGE AND WRITE LITTLE NAMES-- "ROBERT.
" AND THEN YOU WRITE "VANESSA.
" YOU TURN THE PAGE THEN YOU TOUCH HANDS AND LOOK AT EACH OTHER LIKE THIS.
THEN YOU LOOK AROUND.
THEN YOU TOUCH AGAIN.
WHAT IS THIS YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT STUDYING? WHAT YOU'RE DOING IS SOCIALIZING.
I WOULD LOVE TO SPEND ALL DAY GAZING INTO MY HUSBAND'S EYES.
I CAN'T, BECAUSE WE HAVE TO WORK.
WE HAVE BILLS TO PAY AND ALLOWANCES TO GIVE OUT.
SO IF YOU DON'T MIND I'D LIKE YOU TWO TO TAKE A BREAK FROM STUDYING TOGETHER FOR A WHILE.
OH, DAD, PLEASE, I PROMISE I'LL DO BETTER.
SURE YOU WILL.
VANESSA AND I HAVE A TEST COMING UP NEXT WEEK.
IF YOU COULD JUST GIVE US ONE MORE CHANCE I KNOW WE COULD DO MUCH, MUCH BETTER.
PLEASE? NO.
THAT'S OKAY.
MY MOM SAW MY GRADE AND GROUNDED ME FOR THE NEXT THREE DAYS.
OKAY.
SO AFTER YOU COME OFF OF YOUR GROUNDATION THEN IT'S UP TO THE TWO OF YOU TO SEE IF YOU CAN PROVE TO US THAT YOU CAN STUDY TOGETHER.
IS THAT ALL RIGHT? I KNOW WE CAN.
VANESSA AND I ARE LIKE A PENCIL AND ERASER-- TOGETHER, IT'S RIGHT.
WHAT ARE WE? THE PEN AND THE INK? ROBERT, VANESSA AND I WILL TAKE YOU HOME.
THANKS, MRS.
HUXTABLE.
HEY.
HOW YOU DOING? THE PEN AND THE ERASER ARE TAKING THE PENCIL HOME.
HUH? RUDY, WHAT ARE YOU MARTIN LUTHER KING: FROM THE PRODIGIOUS HILLTOPS OF NEW HAMPSHIRE LET FREEDOM RING.
FROM THE MIGHTY MOUNTAINS OF NEW YORK LET FREEDOM RING FROM THE HEIGHTENING ALLEGHENIES OF PENNSYLVANIA.
