All language subtitles for Punky Brewster s01e04e05 Punky Gets Her Own Room

Maybe the world is blind or just a
little unkind.

Don't know.

Seems you can't be sure of anything
anymore.

We're still out of cereal milk.

Henry, we have to go shopping.

Oh, Punky, not the market. I was there
just last month. The crowds, the noises,

the money.

I know. Why don't you give me the money
and I'll go shopping for you.

I'll get my hat.

This car has its wheel jammed. Oh, I can
fix that.

What did you do?

I gave it a gomectomy.

Want to sit in the little seat?

Henry, that's for babies.

Oh, I'm sorry.

No. Why not?

That's for grown -ups. Driving a
shopping cart is an important

You have to be extremely...

Ground chuck is hamburger meat.

And at those prices, it's no bargain.

I remember when I could get ten pounds
for $1 .49.

Look at these soap powders. Every one of
them says new and improved.

What's the matter with that?

I liked it better when they were old and
cheap.

We're on a strict budget.

We can't afford to go over it.

What's a budget?

It's how much money we're allowed to
spend.

Is that like an allowance?

Sort of.

When you're 25.

Well, then I'll be working and making my
own money.

Exactly.

Can we buy these pretty little bottles
of fruit punch?

No. It's cheaper to buy this big...

free gift is a set of false teeth.

Oh, please, Henry, can I have some sugar
beasties?

All right. You can have a little box.

But the bigger ones are cheaper.

You said so yourself.

Come on, let's hurry it up. I want to
get out of here before this food reaches

its expiration date.

the peaches.

I wouldn't buy what this store calls
fruit.

I remember I was a boy.

The fruit and produce man would come by
with his cart chock full of produce

fresh from the farm.

And he'd sing.

Hey, listen, Henry.

I'm going to cut up a fresh side of
beef. You want to pick out a cup of nice

steak? Sure.

Say, that meat isn't from a cow named
Chuck, is it?

Never mind.

Just free pizza, please.

Little girl, didn't I just give you a
piece?

That could have been my twin sister.

Being a grumpy old man that never
smiles.

Attention, Henry.

If you hear me, throw some food up in
the air.

Well, can I help you find somebody?

No, you wouldn't answer if you're here.

Well, Brandon, looks like we've been
dumped again.

You know, Brandon, I'm getting pretty
good at packing.

I guess it's because I've had so much
practice.

Pike, what are you doing here?

Packing my stuff.

Don't worry, I'll be out of your hair in
a minute.

What are you talking about? I looked all
over that supermarket for you.

The pizza lady said the only little
girls she saw were a couple of twins.

You were really looking for me? You
weren't trying to ditch me?

Ditch you?

Is that what you thought?

My mom left me at a shopping center, so
I thought you did the same thing.

Punky, just because something happens to
you once doesn't mean it's going to

happen again, okay?

You're saying how expensive everything
was, so I was afraid you didn't want me

anymore because I cost too much to feed.

Punky, I complain about prices for one
simple reason.

What's that? I'm a cheapskate.

It's nothing to do with you.

Punky, I'll tell you something right
now.

I'll never, ever leave you.

Repeat after me.

I, Henry Warnemont... I, Henry
Warnemont... Will never leave Punky

Will never leave Punky Brewster. And if
I do... And if I do... I'll eat a horny

toad.

I'll eat a horny toad.

Maybe the world is blind Or just a
little unkind

Don't know

From watching Brandon.

That's what he does when he has...
Breathe.

Come on, help me fold these blankets.

Gee, I sure wish I had my own bedroom.

Yeah.

A bedroom has a bed. This is a couch
room.

Maybe I could ask Henry for a study.

Forget it.

No... Nobody could get him to give that
room up.

I'm not nobody. I'm Punky Brewster.

Let's run.

Henry, I'm worrying about you. You spend
too much time in this little stuffy

room. You've got to go outside and play
in the fresh air.

Thank you. I enjoy being in this room.

I can read, listen to good music, or
just look out of the window at my

tree. It's fun watching a tree.

When I first moved into this building
and became the apartment manager, I had

choice of all the apartments.

Do you know why I picked this one?

Because of this particular room.

I really, really love this room.

Can I have it?

What?

I'm the only kid I know who doesn't have
her own room.

You're new to the area.

You don't know that many children yet.

Brandon loves this room. When he comes
in here, I mean... When he what?

He peeked his head through the door.

I can just hear his little doggy brain
saying, boy, I sure wish I could go in

there.

Sorry, off limits.

Oh, please, Henry.

Tell you what, Panky.

Maybe this could be your bedroom.

Really? Yippee!

But... But what?

It's going to take more than a day. It's
going to take a lot of...

Money, time, and effort to change this
study into a bedroom.

And we don't want to rush into anything,
do we?

We don't?

No.

This is something that has to be
carefully thought out and planned.

Because we want this room to be the best
bedroom that any little girl could

possibly have.

I just hope I get it while I'm still a
little girl.

See you tonight when I come back from
work.

How'd it go, Punky?

Did you get the room?

Well, not for a real long while.

Because Henry said it's going to take
too much time, money, and effort to

it. Oh.

Unless... Oh, no, I suddenly have a
feeling I'm not going to live to be

Thank you.

Thank you.

Can you imagine Henry's face when he
sees what we've done?

What's the matter, Henry? Don't you like
it?

This room would blind a smurf.

There are too many colors.

Look at the bed. Anything except for me.
It's an old flower carton.

Watch this.

I just... No!

Hold it.

You painted my auntie drunk?

Yeah.

I thought green was too much.

The whole room is too much.

You shouldn't have changed this room,
young lady.

I thought you'd like it.

I want everything in here changed back
to exactly the way it was.

Oh, Henry, I was hoping that you and me
could be sort of like a real family.

I was hoping that we could feel like I
belonged here.

How can I?

Everything in this whole place belongs
to you.

Come here, Punky.

Now I'm going to tell you something.

I'm going to say it once, and only once.

own place.

A room of your own. And when I see how
you've taken my study and painted it

these bright and colorful colors, why,
it

just makes me want to cry.

Are you telling me that I get to keep
this room?

Yes.

Well, well, thanks, Henry.

Hey, Mr. Warnemont.

Yes, Eddie.

No, out here.

I'm sorry.

I shouldn't have left Punky holding the
bag.

I'm the one you should blame. After all,
I was the responsible adult.

Eddie, I have to tell you something
that's very difficult for me.

You did a real good job.

Wow.

Betty!

I'm okay.

Luckily, I landed on my head.

Even Brandon.

Well, that's very nice, Bunky.

Thank you.

Right now, I think I'll go roll into my
easy chair

and try to unwind.
