Hi, Tim. Hello, Heidi.
I got ahold of the expense report.
You might wanna look at this before it goes to the boss.
Why do I want to look at it?
Well, check out page two under the heading "Things Tim Broke."
Porta-Potti, 500 bucks. Mm, not bad.
Plate-glass window, 275.
Fuse and circuit breakers, 150 bucks?
Look, do me a big favor.
You know that Binford 6100 paper shredder? Mm-hmm.
Why don't you be a good friend and run this through that?
Well, I can't. You broke it. 800 bucks.
Well, why don't you help me out here
and find something that I haven't broken and hide it in there.
"And here we have the complete line of Binford pruners...
the complete line of Binford power pruners...
What are you doing? I'm rehearsing.
"The complete line of Binford's..."
It's in the script. Look. Yeah, OK.
I don't know. Are we demonstrating the extended version?
We are not. If you'd read the script, you would know that.
How am I supposed to read the script? It's in pieces.
Hi, boys. Hi, Irma.
So, who's looking forward to tonight's Cable Awards?
Well, since you win everything every year, I'm guessing you.
I do expect a statue or two
for my special "21 Things You Can Do With A Squash."
I can think of one more.
Oh, Tim. You're such a little scallion.
Well, I'll see you tonight, boys.
Bye-bye. Bye.
Sometimes that woman really steams my rutabagas.
Come on, Tim, don't let Irma get to ya.
I think we have a very good chance this year.
Yeah, right.
Come on, Tim.
Turn that frown upside-down. Come on.
We never win. We go to the awards show.
We look like a bunch of losers sitting there.
The crew gets all liquored up and breaks things.
What do you say we bail out early
and go to Eddie's Halloween party?
We can't insult the nominating committee.
We can do both. We'll go to the awards and then to Eddie's party.
There's no point in going to the awards show.
The judges just don't go for family tool shows.
They go for those highbrow, urban, cappuccino/radicchio shows.
May I remind you that we've done some excellent episodes?
Pick any show from "Stucco Week."
That's powerful television. That's right.
And who wasn't moved by our "Salute to Toilets"?
We had the audience sitting on the edge of their seats.
We deserve to be there. That's right, we do,
because we do quality television.
I mean, how many shows teach people how to use stuff like this?
-== [ www.OpenSubtitles.org ] ==-
Why can't I go trick-or-treating tonight?
'Cause you have a fever and an ear infection.
But how am I gonna get any candy?
Well, when Randy goes out,
he can just ask for extra candy for his sick brother.
Mom...
I try that every year. It never works.
I'll give you a note.
Oh, won't I be cool?
Is he OK? Hi. Yeah.
Hi, Dad. Hey. Well, little change in plans.
I decided to go to the awards banquet after all,
then we'll go to Eddie's party. No, no, no, no.
More change of plans. We've lost the baby-sitter.
Somebody's gotta stay with Mark.
Randy can stay. Can't do it, Dad.
I'm going trick-or-treating with a note from my mother.
Hi, Mom, hi, Dad. What are you up to tonight?
I'm just gonna hang out at Jason's.
Hi. I'm Jason. Nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you. How you doin'?
Tool Time is my favorite show.
Brad tells me kids your age don't watch it.
Well, I'm a year older than Brad, sir.
I know that Tool Time isn't just about tools.
It's a metaphor for how we live in the '90s.
It is. It is, yes. Yeah, it is.
I like this kid.
Well, say, if you two are just hanging out at Jason's,
why don't you hang out here? The sitter canceled.
I don't want to ruin my night baby-sitting Mark.
Don't be selfish. Help me out here.
It's no big deal. We can hang out here and watch TV.
Hey, Mr. Taylor, are the Cable Awards being televised?
Absolutely.
Channel 87 are pre-empting all their programming.
Which consists of an infomercial and test pattern.
You are funny!
I bet you could have your own show, too.
I bet you could run for office.
It might not be a bad thing
to have a tool man in the White House.
Maybe he could fix what's wrong with this country.
Stick with it, young man.
Great. Why'd you tell them we'd stay here alone?
Brad, let me do the math for you.
No parents, plus you and Senator Jason...
equals party!
My parents would kill me if they found out I had a party.
Brad, I know you're just a measly freshman, but stick with me
and you'll be a measly freshman who threw one great party.
And wait till you meet my friends Page and Bridgett. Hello!
You're starting to make a lot of sense, Senator.
And the winner for Best Achievement in Sound is...
No surprise here. Cooking with Irma!
(screams)
How on Earth does she win for "Sound"?
What kind of sound does a baked chicken make?
(clucks)
(chokes)
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
This award makes 13.
Or, as we like to say in my business,
a baker's dozen.
I'll tell you, that woman really just ticks me -
Congratulations.
You have to admit her shows are good.
She did that fabulous series on desserts.
Did you see the two-parter on the lemon chiffon cake with a raspberry sauce?
Yes. Weren't you dying?
Excuse me. Got a minute?
Sorry, Tim. What table are we sitting at?
The "I love Irma" table is right over there.
Sorry, Tim.
Look, I've had it.
I'm gonna get out of here and go to Eddie's party.
You can't leave the awards show in the middle of it.
That's poor sportsmanship.
Look at the Knitting with Norm table.
Have they won anything tonight?
No. But they're still here.
Do you want to be like him?
The man's knitting a toaster cover in public.
But we can't all get up and leave at the same time.
You're right. It would look bad.
Al, you and Ilene, you go to the bathroom, put your costumes on.
We'll meet you out in the lobby in ten minutes.
I don't want to go. Come on.
There's still five awards left. Irma can't win them all.
And now the award for Best Lighting.
The winner is...
"Irma Goes to the Fruit Stand."
(screams)
All right, let's go change.
Come on, let's go.
Brad, you've been working on your hair for an hour and a half.
Yeah, but you gotta admit it was worth it.
What are you doing? Turning on the Cable Awards.
That way, when your parents get home, we'll know what happened.
How'd you get so smart?
I've thrown a lot of parties at other people's houses.
My ear hurts.
I think I have pus.
You're fine.
How would you know?
I'm a doctor.
You're in high school.
I see patients during recess.
(doorbell rings)
That's them. Get ready for the best night of your life.
Mark, here's a buck, OK? Go upstairs.
Best night of your life - two bucks.
Brad, this is Page and Bridgett and some of their friends.
Hi, Brad. I love your hair.
I haven't even combed it yet.
I brought some CDs. Oh, cool. Which ones?
I got the new Mangled Lizards.
Cool! The live album - Mangled in Moscow.
(♪ rock)
(phone ringing)
Hey, everybody, quiet! Parents alert.
Hello? Oh, hi, Mom. Yeah, everything's fine.
Jason, stop tickling me!
No, Mom. That was me.
I don't know. Jason's a tickler.
Yeah, everything's fine.
Have a great time and don't worry about us.
All right. Bye.
Your parents aren't coming home early, are they?
No, no. My mom was just calling and asking about my little brother's pus.
My Little Brother's Pus. I love that band.
Next year they should just move my table right up on the stage!
Or maybe just have the ceremony in your living room.
(cackling)
(imitates Irma's laugh)
(sighs) What is it - Mark?
No, Mark's fine. I'm worried about what else may be going on at the house.
What else is going on? Well...
There was a lot of noise, and Jason was tickling Brad.
Maybe we should go home.
If Jason's tickling Brad, I don't want to go home.
I just don't like that Jason. He's just too smooth.
He's a good kid.
If it weren't for him, Brad wouldn't be glued to the TV right now.
Hey, Brad.
Hey, Brad! How are you doing?
And now the award for the best show.
The nominees are Knitting with Norm
for his special on Japanese sweaters -
"Tora! Tora! It's Angora."
Cooking with Irma for her Christmas special, "Home for the Hollandaise."
I can't take any more of this. Let's just go. Come on.
And Tool Time for their salute to engines -
"I Shoulda Had a V-8."
And the winner is...
Tool Time!
Tool Time! We won.
Al, get out of the bathroom! We won Best Show!
It's about time someone took us seriously.
Ilene, we won.
Oh, you did?
Congratulations... Oh!
Come on, Fur Ball. Let's go get our award.
I can't go up there looking like this.
What are you, a man or a mouse? Come on, buddy!
Well, I guess you feel pretty silly right about now.
Um... it's hard to say how much thanks we have from everybody at Tool Time,
which, of course, is a... a-a show that is a metaphor
for how we live our lives in the '90s.
I want to...
everybody from Binford Tools, I want to thank Heidi, of course,
my crew, if they can hear me out at the bar,
my three boys for inspiration, and who am I missing? Um...
Your wife. My wife. I'm sorry.
And most of all, this man next to me, Al Borland,
whose professionalism and class and dignity
has been an inspiration to many of us.
Thank you, Tim.
I, uh... Well, I just want to say
that... that this proves
that dreams really can come true.
When I started out in this business,
well, I... I lived in a hole in the wall.
But...
Well, I want to say, did I give up?
Did I run away with my tail between my legs?
No! No! I went on...
And on and on and on.
From both of us, thanks very much, and good night.
Thank you.
Well, congratulations, buddy.
Now you have something to put on your mantel
instead of that big picture of your mom you blew up.
That wasn't blown up.
Let's see. Let me see.
(♪ rock)
I love this music. Who is it? The Bloated Jellyfish.
Hey, I'm out. You got any butts?
Just one. And don't even think about lighting it up.
Brad?
What is going on here? A few friends dropped by.
Great. Candy. Let's see what you got.
Hey, that's mine. Give it back.
In your dreams.
Brad, you want to help me out here?
I'm a little busy here.
We'll help you out. Hey...
This is not good. Help!
Hey, Brad, who's the guy with the pumpkin on his head?
A guy who can get me in a lot of trouble
if he tells my parents.
I'll be back.
Hey, Wilson. How's it going?
I'm gonna get you for this, Brad.
I thought you went to a Halloween party.
Well, actually, I got back about a half an hour ago.
Seems you're having quite a party over there.
Actually, it's not a party.
I just had a few friends over. Hmm.
Last time I counted, it was 37.
Ah. 39.
You saw the whole thing?
Actually, Brad, I heard it,
and I must admit
the melodic appeal of Bloated Jellyfish escapes me.
You see, I find them quite derivative of My Little Brother's Pus.
You're not gonna tell my parents, are you, Wilson?
Oh, Brad, Brad, Brad.
You put me in such a quandary.
On the one hand, is it a neighbor's place
to get his friend's son in trouble?
And then on the other hand,
I'm reminded of the Roman Quintus Horatius Flaccus, who said,
"For it is your business if your neighbor's wall catches fire."
Yeah, but what about the words
of a great American, Mister Rogers?
He said, "Won't you be my neighbor?"
Hmm. Hmm. Mm-hmm, mm-hmm, hmm-hmm.
(Jill) What is going on here?
(Tim) Give me that beer! Who are these kids?
Hey, Lancelot, what are you doing here?
Puff and I own this castle.
I told you we should come home and find out what's going on.
Mom? Dad?
You guys came back early.
What are all these kids doing in the house?
Mostly torturing me.
Where's Brad?
Well, gee, I don't want to get Brad in trouble,
but check over there by the beer cans and the cigarette butts.
(Jill) Brad!
Brad!
You are in so much trouble!
And you know she means it. You can tell by the look on her face.
(Jill) All right, let's go back to the beginning.
Whose idea was this - Jason's or yours?
It couldn't have been Jason's.
He's a Tool Time fan. They know the difference between right and wrong.
Have you not figured out yet that
that kid was conning you the whole time?
Tool Time fans don't con.
He's not a Tool Time fan.
You never answered my question. Whose idea was this?
Jason's.
But you went along with it.
We give you responsibility, this is what happens?
Hey, I didn't want any responsibility.
OK. We'll remember that in two years when you want your driver's license.
By then I might be ready for some responsibility.
We'll be the judge of that.
Did it ever occur to you to just say no?
Yes. But I didn't think it was that big a deal.
Well, it is a big deal.
You had a sick brother. The house is a mess.
There are cigarette burns on the couch.
What about this alcohol? They brought it. There's nothing I can do.
I don't want your friends bringing alcohol into this house.
I wasn't drinking.
Everybody was under age. I don't care whether you were drinking or not.
You know if anything happened to these kids, Puff and I would be responsible?
OK. I'm sorry, OK? I guess I wasn't thinking.
You should have, but now you're gonna have a month to think about it,
'cause that's how long you're grounded.
A month? That's right. A month.
You might as well begin right now
by cleaning this mess up.
Mr. Taylor. Hi.
Page and I were just in here looking for the... vacuum. Is this where you keep it?
Get out here, Jason.
I want the truth, and I want it right now. One chance to come clean.
Are you or are you not a Tool Time fan?
I've never seen the show in my life.
(imitates Tin Man) Now I know I have a heart, because it's broken.
Good morning. Morning.
I see you're still clutching that award.
I didn't realize I had it with me.
You took it in the shower this morning.
You know, it took me a long time to get this. This means a lot to me.
I know, honey, and I think it's real cute.
I just hope that we don't have to sleep with it again tonight.
No. I'm gonna make it a little bed.
Where's Brad?
Oh.
He's out raking the yard.
Then I'm gonna have him clean the attic.
You think he's actually gonna learn anything from all this?
When you did something wrong and your
parents punished you, did you learn anything?
No. Except to try harder not to get caught.
Yeah. Same with me.
This is the point in my life my mother was waiting for.
(feminine voice) One day I hope you have a little boy just like you!
My mom said the exact same thing.
I can't believe it's actually come true.
So what do we do?
I guess we just keep trying to be the best parents we can be,
have a little faith...
hope that someday he has a kid just like him.
When I started out in this business,
well, I... I lived in a hole in the wall.
But...
Well, I want to say, did I give up?
Did I run away with my tail between my legs?
No! No! I went on...
And on and on and on.
From both of us, thanks very much. And good night.
Thank you.
