All language subtitles for Punky Brewster s01e12 Miss Adorable

Maybe the world is blind or just a
little unkind.

Don't know.

Seems you can't be sure of anything
anymore.

Although you...

Are you girls having fun?

Yeah! Then stop it and go to bed.

Good night.

Well, gang, I guess it's bedtime.

Do you still sleep with dolls?

Sure. What do you sleep with?

My trophy.

Your trophy?

Yeah. I always take my awards, medals,
or trophies to bed with me.

I can.

When I was three months old, I was voted
best dressed baby.

Then I won a golden booty for most
terrific toddler.

Then I won the sweetest smile.

I could go on and on.

You already have.

I don't do it for me. It's for my
parents.

Every time I win, they can brag about me
to their friends.

Then it gives them proof that I'm
somebody special.

Henry says I'm special no matter what.

And you actually believe that?

My grandma says, sweet potato, you're
perfect just the way you are.

I see.

She calls you a vegetable.

Well, no matter what your parents say,
they want you to be a winner.

A number one.

You gotta make them proud of you.

You mean your parents wouldn't be proud
of you if you were A number four or B

number six?

If you don't produce,

about you?

Exactly.

That's why I'm always proving myself in
bigger and better ways.

Next week, I'm going to win the Miss
Adorable pageant. Yeah, what's that?

Just the most important pageant for
preteens in the whole Chicago area.

And the host is going to be Andy Gibb.

Andy Gibb? I love Andy Gibb. Every time
I think about him, my heart does a

break.

Incredibly, yes.

Then I'm going to enter. Me, too.

Miss Adorable has to be beautiful and
talented.

Now, let's be honest.

Who's the one person in this room who
fits that description?

Me!

You two really want to go through with
this?

Yeah, I want to make Henry proud of me.
And I want to...

I'll get you to some applications
tomorrow.

Yay!

with Henry, I'm going to win that
contest.

I'm going to be A number one.

Boy, I sure wish I'd known about this
before.

Okay, Henry. I'm finished filling out
this application.

All you have to do is sign right here
with this.

Adorable parent.

I don't know about this.

You don't think I could win, do you?

You think you'd be a laugher stocking.

That's not it. I never worry about you
being a laugher stocking. Then what's

problem? For one thing, these patches
require a tremendous amount of

preparation. You'll need a fancy dress.

A special hairstyle.

Mrs. Johnson can help me with that.
She's a wizard, that stuff.

Please, Henry.

Can I enter the contest?

Love that color on her.

Oh, well, uh, thank you.

See what I mean about never wear red?

Margot, we've got this pageant locked
up.

All right, mothers, girls, and whoever
you are, we need these little

darlings on stage.

And I mean now.

Really wonderful.

Thank you.

Where's Frankie?

Well, she's not real happy about the way
she looks. I'll take care of it.

Penny, you go get Cherry on stage.

Oh, but... Go on. But... Yes.

Frankie,

you got to come out now.

Don't be shy.

The show has started.

I feel ridiculous.

I'm not going out there.

But, Punky, that's exactly the way you
said you wanted to look.

I know, but I was wrong. When Margo
dresses like this, she looks like Miss

Adorable. When I dress like this, I look
like Miss Horrible.

Isn't there a way to make me look more
like myself?

Come on, child. We got five minutes to
punky you off.

Host for the Miss Adorable pageant, the
dynamic star of stage, television, and

recordings, an exciting and delightful
gentleman who appeals to misses of all

ages, Mr. Andy Gibbs!

Thank you for the time today.

It's a real thrill to be hosting the
Miss Adorable contest here in Chicago,

block away from Wrigley Field, home of
the Chicago Cubs.

At last, somebody from this neighborhood
is going to win something.

Now, believe me, the choice here tonight
is going to be a difficult one.

All of our candidates for Miss Adorable
really live up to that name.

Now, when you see these little ladies
perform, I'm sure you'll agree with me

when I say... Thank heaven.

Poor little girl.

Poor little girl, she'll take her love
today.

Thank heaven.

Poor little girl.

Can't grow up in the most delightful
way.

Your little life so countless and
appealing.

One day you'll flash and send it
flashing through the ceiling.

Thank heaven.

Thank heaven for

little

girls. Those little eyes so helpless

and appealing.

One day we'll flash and send you
crashing through the ceiling.

Thank heaven for little girls.

Without them, what will it fall?

Miss Adorable is more than just a pretty
face. She's talented too. So let's

cheer on these girls who have worked so
long and so hard.

Ladies and gentlemen, the talent
competition.

When men say I'm cute and funny and my
teeth on teeth are

furled, I'm just livin' up like honey. I
enjoy being

a girl.

You better sit up and bathe.

Now we have our judges' decision for the
five finalists in tonight's Miss

Adorable pageant.

And they are... Karen Westbrook.

Margot Prince.

Sherry Johnson.

Melinda Crosby.

And now,

so our judges can get to know the girls
a little better, we're going to ask each

of them an unrehearsed question.

Karen, would you step down here, please?

Now, here's your question.

What living American do you most admire
and why?

My uncle Phil, because he can play
Yankee Ditto Dandy on his armpit.

I see.

He's not patriotic.

Thank you, Carol.

Margot, finish the sentence.

In my free time, I like to... Roll
bandages for the Red Cross, knit shawls

Shedding, and make this world a better
place in which to live.

Isn't that wonderful?

Because I believe in world peace with a
strong military.

Thank you. Very nice.

Now, Cherry, step down here, please.

For your question, what do you like best
in school?

Lunch.

You don't like school?

Well, it kills the time until dinner.

Thank you, sir.

Melinda, hello.

Who is the most important person in your
life?

My mom and dad.

Well, actually, that's two people.

Let's try a different question.

Melinda, if you could change one thing
in your life, what would it be?

I guess I'd have to say my mom and dad.

What do you want to be when you grow up?

The president of the United States.

And now for the moment we've all been
waiting for, the judge's decision.

The second runner -up is...

Karen Westbrook.

Now, our first runner -up will have the
most responsibility.

If for any reason, Miss Adorable cannot
complete her duty, then the first runner

-up will take her place.

And she is Melinda Rosby.

One of these three little girls will be
crowned Miss Adorable.

Which will it be?

Will it be Cherry Johnson?

Will it be Punky Brewster?

Or will it be Margot Kramer?

And the winner is adorable Miss Cherry
Johnson.

You were really something tonight.

I blew it.

You were one of the five finalists.
That's terrific.

I know how badly you wanted to win. I
don't want to win for me. I want to win

for you.

For me?

Yeah. I want to be a number one.

So you'd be proud of me.

But I am proud of you.

How can you be?

I've never won anything.

Margo says that you have to win stuff to
prove to your parents that you're

somebody special. I wanted to give you a
trophy tonight.

Punky, you are unbelievably special to
me.

And you've already given me something
that is much bigger and better than

trophy. And it's made of pure gold.

What's that?

Very well, Brandon.

What's the matter?

I can't find my crown.

Oh, I think I know who has it. Who?

Brandon the Wonder...
