All language subtitles for A Different World s04e08 Love Thy Neighbor.eng

- Hi.
- Hello.

Uh, you need some help?

No. I can handle it.

Are you sure?

Ooh, please, Dwayne,
I can handle two of these things.

Oh, well, run mine
down there too, would you?

? I know my parents loved me ?

? Stand behind me, come what may ?

? Mmm ?

? I know now that I'm ready, yeah ?

? For I finally heard them say ?

? It's a different world ?

? Ooh ?

? Than where you come from ?

? Yes, it is now, yeah ?

? Here's our chance to make it, hey! ?

? And if we focus on our goal ?

? You can dish it! ?

? We can take it, hey ?

? Just remember that you've been told ?

? It's a different world ?

? It's a different world ?

? It's a different world ?

? It's a different world ?

? Yeah, than where you come from ?

? Ooh ?

? Than where you come from! ?

Jaleesa, I finished
my share of the chores.

Oh, no, you didn't.

Closing the shower curtain

is not a substitute
for scrubbing the tub, Whitley.

And I mean scrub the tub,

not just stroke it with a sponge.

- Hi, Dwayne.
- Hey.

Where are you going, Jaleesa?

You said you'll help me
with my marketing project.

It's due tomorrow.

Whitley, I said I would help you Monday
when you finished your chores.

Today is Thursday.

All promises are off. I am sorry.

Good luck.

And don't roll your eyes at me, either.

Now what am I going to do?

Bust a move on that tub.

I'm talking about
for my marketing project.

I can't do it all by myself.

Well, that's why god created "F"s.

Dwayne,

you used to take Professor McClarin's
marketing class, didn't you?

Yes.

Then surely you must know somebody
who knows something about marketing.

Yeah.

Professor McClarin.

- Would it be that much of an imposition-
- Yes, Whitley.

I'm desperate. Won't you help me?

You know I will.

For $6.50 an hour.

Now, with the precepts
of the new deal in mind,

taking into account
the historical and political reality,

what do you think
is the natural progression

for social reform in America?

Miss Reese.

Well, I think the government
simply needs to follow through

on current reform measures.

But we can't rely solely
on the government.

I feel that the most effective reform
is going to have to come from individuals.

So, come on, people.

Show me some brotherhood.

I'm brotherhooded out.

I sympathize with
the women and the children

sleeping in the street,

but I'm tired of them winos
coming up to me talking about,

"Brotherman, brotherman,
spare some change"

for a brotherman."

That little bit of change you spare
may save someone from starving.

The bottom line is, this is America.

Anyone can go to social services

and get food stamps, a place to stay,
whatever they need.

You can't get federal aid
without an address, Ron.

Herman's Hamburgers is always hiring.

If they work at Herman's,
they eat for free.

Ah, thank you for the Herman's Hamburgers
solution to homelessness.

I'm just saying,
with all those options available,

folks don't have to live in the streets.

Do you really believe, Mr. Johnson,

that four million Americans
choose to be homeless?

I'm just speaking from
my personal observations.

Ah, so you've polled the homeless?

No.

Have you ever spoken
to a homeless person, Mr. Johnson?

Yeah. I told him to get a job.

And then Professor Randolph
implied that I�

I, Ron "Mr. Sensitivity" Johnson,

had no compassion.

He fails to realize there's a difference

between being compassionate
and being stupid.

Hey, Ron, there's nothing stupid
about wanting to help somebody out.

Uh-oh! Trouble 12 o'clock. Whitley.

- Dwayne.
- Hey!

- I got an A on my assignment.
- Hey!

- Ooh!
- Wow.

And to show my appreciation,
I'd like to take you to dinner.

It wouldn't be anything fancy.

Funds are limited, but it is dinner.

Oh, no, thanks, Whitley.
I had a big lunch today.

Maybe some other time.

Okay. Just let me know when.

You got it.

- And thank you for the help.
- All right.

Oh, brother, she is wearing me out.

Well, then let her wear you out!

Oh, no way. Not the kid, man. Uh-uh.

Dwayne, when are you going to face
the inevitableness of this inevitability?

Hey, man, the woman is no good.
All the games she played�

That was to get your attention.
Purely for your benefit.

What about when she was kissing you?

That was purely for my benefit.

- Get out of here.
- Dwayne, put the past behind you.

No can do.

That woman is conniving,
manipulative, carnivorous,

- omnivorous, ubiquitous-
- Enough of this.

You're telling the wrong person.

Of course I am.
I don't feel like dealing with her.

Dwayne, notwithstanding her evilness,

- Whitley digs you.
- This is true.

And you dig her.

But if she keeps coming up empty,
she's sure to find another well,

and that's going to leave you high and dry

and ready to cry.

Bye.

Hold on.

Windows cleaned today?

No, man. Get away from my car.

I said, "No, man!"

Hey, your blades. You need new blades.

And you need to get a job.

That's why I'm wiping your windows.

Look, old man, I got other things to do.

Only costs a dollar, short rib.

- Did you call me "short rib"?
- Yeah.

Ray?

Of Ray Nay's ribs?

Barbecue slabs and fixings to go.

Right now it's windows to go.

Don't you remember me?

I used to come in two, three times a week.

I was the "pork-ribs-till-you-pop"
chow-down champion.

Three years in a row.

Yeah!

You were the Pac-Man champion too.

That's right, man, that was me!

I thought you went to Florida
to hang out with your mom.

Yeah, well, I ain't there now.

My mama passed away a while ago.

Oh, I'm� I'm sorry to hear that.

You're cleaning windshields?

For one dollar.

Not too many people want to hire
a 70-year-old cook. Thank you.

But you're Ray Nay.

Nobody is anybody without an address, son.

You don't have a home?

Sure, I do. Yo!

Welcome to my abode.

? Lord, Lord, no�

? Lord, no, Lord, Lord knows ?

? Oh� ?

Nothing says loving
like Whitley cleaning the oven.

Leave me alone, Jaleesa.

This makes me feel better.

All right.

You are looking particularly lovely today.

What happened to you?

I happened.

Dwayne hates me.

Since when?

I've never alienated anybody
like this before.

Really?

He's been distant lately.

I though he helped you
with your assignment.

That's exactly the point.
He helped me with my studies

because that's the kind of person he is,

but when I asked him to dinner, he�

he turned me down cold.

Well, there you have it.

Whitley, come on,
give the guy a break. I mean�

I'm sure a opportunity
will knock at your door once again.

And maybe, just maybe, by that time
you will learn how to treat people.

Although, somehow, I doubt it.

Well, I will be out late.

Don't wait up.

Hadn't planned on it.

Can't you use your key?

I don't have a key, but I've got dinner.

Whitley, open the door.

I'm too ugly to let you in.

All right. Cool.
I'm leaving. I won't be back.

No!

I knew you'd see it my way.

Do come in.

Don't mind if I do.

Just give me a minute
to change out of this frump wear.

No, no, no. You're not going anywhere.

I'm ready to eat.

I didn't expect you this evening.

Well, I was passing by the gourmet parfait

and it made me think of you.

Ooh!

What are you gawking at?

Those green splotches on your face.

Oh, no, miss perfect has on pimple cream.

And a Jheri curl cap to boot!

This� this is not a Jheri cap.

It's a polytechnic moisture control cap.

A who? A who? A who?

I suppose you think
this is very funny, Dwayne.

But I didn't come here for a laugh.

Tonight I came here
to get the record straight.

Time to put the birdie in the oven.

Yeah. That's something you're good at.

- Cooking?
- No, avoiding.

Would you like something to drink?
Pop or juice?

Whitley, there you go.

Okay, Dwayne.

What am I avoiding?

Why didn't you answer
any of my letters this summer?

This summer?

Yes, the three months
of the year when it's hot.

I wrote you five letters,
I wrote you five long letters.

Uh� uh�

I read them all, Dwayne,
carefully and lovingly.

So lovingly that you couldn't
write me a two-line postcard back?

You want to know the truth?

There's a fresh approach, yeah.

I did write you back,
but I didn't mail the letters

'cause I wanted you to miss me more.

You're sick.

I was sick,

and I was playing games,

but all that's changed now.

- Not since I last checked.
- What are you talking about?

I'm talking about
kissing my best friend in my face.

- Oh, that.
- Yes, that.

Playing me and Ron off each other,
that's deep, Whitley.

I thought I had to play games
to get you, Dwayne.

But I swore I would never
play them once I had you.

No, no. You don't have me yet.

I found some nice, dry wood.

I'll be nice and toasty.

You actually sleep out here every night?

I stay at the Mission when I can,

but once their beds are full,
the pavement's my pillow.

Ray, how did this happen?

Doctor bills for Mama.

A string of hard luck.

Here I am.

- Isn't there-
- Whoa!

- Don't sit on my guitar.
- Oh.

Isn't there some family or somebody
you can go to to help you out?

I got a daughter in California,
but she has her own family.

I don't want to be a burden.

A burden?
Ray, that's what families are for.

You don't know
anything about my family.

You just need a place to stay
while you get back on your feet.

Why don't you give your daughter a call?

Well, I don't want her to think
that her father's a bum.

A bum? You're the man
that put the B-B-Q in barbecue.

You're the gastronomic genius
who created Ray's rib-tacular sauce.

You're the man that deserves
a Nobel Prize for cooking.

Boy, you know, you talk too much.

If I had a home, I'd lock you out!

I got you!

- That's a good one.
- Sensitive!

You got me that time.

Oh!

I feel much better now.

Well, now that you are
properly groomed, may we eat?

I can't believe we're actually
sitting here together.

Friends.

Neither can I.

- We've overcome so many obstacles, Dwayne.
- Mmm-hmm.

My silly reservations about you.
Your silly relationships-

Hup! Stop!

What silly reservations?
What are you talking about?

You know.

No, I don't. Explain.

The difference in our backgrounds.

I'm from New York
and you're from Virginia?

When I met you, you were
a geeky little lecherous freshman

with no culture, no class and no car.

Mmm-mmm.

And you were a snotty, wannabe diva
working on everybody's last nerve�

but I got over that. I saw past that.

You had less of a journey to take.

Ooh! Honey, don't flatter yourself.

Dwayne, you just weren't
my prince charming.

Then what am I doing here?

I've lowered my standards.

Dwayne, you really have changed.

Ah, get out of here.

I think the big change
you saw in me was Kinu.

- That is not true.
- Oh, then tell me what is true?

I realized I didn't need a bourgie prince.

I need a man who wants me for me.

I won't be that man
if I can't count on you and trust you.

- You can.
- No.

You can't just say it,
you have to mean it.

I do mean it.

You're always there for me, Dwayne.

I want to be there for you.

Just like the song says.

? Got to be there ?

? Be there in the morning� ?

Oh, okay, okay. Ooh.

Easy.

I guess I should just�

come out and say it.

Say what?

I love you.

Yo!

Guess who's coming to dinner?

? Ding dang, dang, a little salt ?

- Yo, Ray.
- Yo.

? Spicy for the ricey ?

- Say, Ray.
- Hey!

? Oh, dang do, oregano ?

? All right, it's dinner time ?

Wait a minute.

I'm the cook. I say when it's dinner time.

Okay.

? All right, it's dinner time ?

I don't want to eat.

Come on, Whitley, he cooked all this food.

Have a seat.

Be nice already.

Say, Dwayne.

Tomorrow, Operation Save Ray Nay
is in effect.

Cool. What are you going to do?

Tonight, he'll stay at our place.

Tomorrow, we'll call his daughter
and help him find a job.

Sounds like a plan.

Hey. You guys better sit down
before the little lady eats it all.

Don't have to call me twice!

Go in in there. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Reminds me of the old Ray Nay's.

- Ooh, mashed potatoes!
- Whoa, whoa. Wait a minute.

Let's say grace.

Good idea.

Thank you for the food and friend.

Amen.

Amen.

- Amen.
- Go on. Eat.

Enough food for the multitude.

Thanks for everything.
Tonight was like being with family.

- Glad we could do it for you.
- Oh, wow.

Good night, Ray Nay.

Good night and thanks again.

Later on.

Alone at last.

- I like the sound of that.
- Mmm�

Now what were you saying?

Whoo!

Oh�

Um, maybe we should
go on over to your house tonight.

Nuh-uh! I live with my mama.

Ooh-wee!

Your cooking was too good tonight.

I still haven't
lost the touch, huh?

Yeah. And I thought you should have this.

I snagged it from your old place
before they bulldozed it.

And I won't sleep until
it hangs in the new Ray Nay's.

Oh, wow, this sign reminds me
of when I first started out.

- Oh, yeah?
- Yeah, man, I was young, full of energy.

I had some nerve to think
I could start that business up on my own.

I won't do that again.

I don't believe this is the same man
who sold his one thousandth rib

in his second week of business?

Come on, Ray, your place was a landmark.

Kings used to eat there.

Martin Luther, B.B., Don.

True, true, true, but I'm too old
and tired to start again.

I'll leave that to you'll.

Come on, Ray. You got to reopen Ray Nay's.

I mean, you have to.

I'll help you out.

You're not a bad fella, short rib,
but it's not that simple.

Thanks for letting me impose this evening.

Ray, hold on. Why don't you
chill for a minute, okay?

Spend the night. Sleep on it.
We'll talk in the morning.

Let me get you a pillow.

You know, Ray, my band should provide
the entertainment at the new Ray Nay's.

- Oh, yeah?
- Yeah, that will be fresh.

Ray, looks like the only extra pillow
I have is Dwayne's.

- Is that right?
- And he's a heavy drooler.

Oh�

I just have to change the pillowcase.

Ray�

Ray?

Gotcha!

Ray?

Ray?

Ray!

Yo, Ray!

I'm just waiting for a pigeon
to descend upon us

and interrupt us this time.

Mmm-mmm, there aren't going to
be any more interruptions.

One more thing.

These are for you, addressed to Japan.

Probably took you all semester
to write these.

I told you I wrote them this summer.

I know, I know. I can't wait to read them.

Well, you'll have to.

Oh, whoa�

One more thing.

What?

I love you too.
