All language subtitles for Mary Tyler Moore s02e08 Thoroughly Unmilitant Mary

Who can turn the world on with her
smile?

Who can take a nothing day and suddenly
make it all seem worthwhile?

Well, it's you, girl, and you should
know it.

With each glance and every little
movement you show it, love is all alone,

need to waste it. You can never tell,
why don't you take it?

You're gonna make it after all

You're gonna make it after

No, thanks.

Mm -mm.

Last time we went, you did all that
Peggy Fleming stuff.

The best I could do was three laps
around the rink on the sides of my

Hey, here's your mail.

Oh, thanks.

The Viking Voice.

Who hit you up for a subscription to
that?

It's my high school alumni magazine.

Yeah? The Viking Voice. Lee Ferrickson
High School.

Rosenberg, Minnesota.

Uh, no. That's Roseburg.

They probably changed it.

you graduate?

1959. Yeah.

Mary, you're famous.

Where? Mary Richards, who everybody
thought would be the first girl in our

to be married, has proved to be a real
surprise.

Not only is Mary still single, but she's
become a real career gal.

That's what it says, career gal.

Could I have it now? Word reaches us
from the Twin Cities that Perky Mary is

producer of the Ted to program day. When
are you going to settle down and

produce some kids, Mary?

Oh, boy, that's really hitting low.

Estelle and Vernon Proust, 59,
vacationed this past August at Moose

they didn't go swimming because Estelle
had a summer cold.

Here is a picture of Estelle not
swimming.

This Estelle must be very close to the
editor of the Viking Boys.

Estelle is the editor of the Viking
Boys.

Then is she the one responsible for that
cute little item on you? Mm -hmm.

Estelle stopped liking me when we ran
against each other for Viking Queen.

And you won.

Well, yeah.

Viking Queen.

Well, your highness, I think you ought
to read this right here.

Howard Arnell, class of 56, writes that
he is still single, but as he puts it,

always looking.

As long as you're looking, Howie, why
don't you look up Mary Richards? Oh,

thanks, Estelle.

All I need is for Howard to read this,
just when I haven't heard from him in

months. Maybe he'll miss it, ma 'am.
Wait, no, it's okay. Howard adds that he

has just accepted a position as head of
product development for the Whizbang

Novelty Corporation in Denver.

What? Denver's loss is Mary Richard's
gain.

Why? They're having the 50th anniversary
of the founding of Lake Ferrickson.

All the classes are having reunions.
Hey, you know, I really ought to go to

that. You know, give everyone a chance
to say...

like you isn't married, Mary.

Mary? Why would you want to go through
that when you don't have to? Oh, I'm

to it.

So how come a cute girl like you isn't
married, Mary? Oh.

for firming up the old face.

Now, if you could just firm up the
inside of your head. Or the top side of

yours.

Did you hear that joke? I got it, didn't
I? Yeah, you sure did, Ted. I don't

believe it. Ted said something almost
witty.

Hey, Murph, I was just wondering, do you
think that there's any news value in

the 50th anniversary reunion of a high
school in upstate Minnesota?

Only if the roof collapses during the
dinner dance.

Interesting. Anybody get hurt?

What?

In that accident at the high school
reunion.

Ted, I think you missed something
between grimaces.

Oh. Say, Mayor, here's another one of my
isometrics.

Oh. Yeah, I've tried that one. Helps
about the chest.

Not always.

The reason I mention this high school
reunion thing is it's my old school and

I'd sort of like to go.

I think you should call in sick Friday.

That's a bad idea. I just, I don't think
it's very ethical to call in and say

you're sick when you're not sick.

Okay, have it your way.

But look, if you want to try to convince
Lou, Mary, I'll back you up. Oh, would

you? Mm -hmm. Oh, thanks.

Went to my reunion a couple of months
ago.

Famous announcer school.

That's a correspondence course.

Where did they have the reunion? In a
mailbox?

pick up that chair, I suggest you get
out of it.

Just trying to firm up the old tummy
muscles, Lou.

Looks like you could use a little of
that yourself.

My tummy is firm, Ted.

By golly, it is.

Say, Lou, how do you keep in such great
shape?

what you thought about this.

There's this high school in Roseburg
that's having the 50th anniversary of

founding this Friday.

And I was just wondering if we would be
interested in

covering this event.

You know, I thought if you'd be at all
interested in it, I could go up there

sort of look it over.

Why, I think that's a wonderful idea,
Mary.

You do?

Mm -hmm.

But I think it's too big a story for you
to handle by yourself.

I think maybe we ought to send a crew up
with you.

Maybe even Ted.

And if it's the blockbuster I think it
is, we could do it again next year.

On the 51st anniversary of this dumb
school that nobody could care less

about it, Mr. Grant. If you don't think
it's a good story, then just say so.

I think he just did.

Thanks for backing me up. Oh, please,
Mary. I feel badly enough about it.

You happen to be a graduate of this dumb
school that's having a birthday?

Well, yes.

Why don't you just ask me for the day
off?

Could I have the day off?

No.

The general manager's putting the heat
on about giving days off.

Well, listen, that's okay. I understand.

I really do.

Look,

if you really want to go, why don't you
do what I do?

What? Call in...

going to work today, Rhoda. I am taking
the day off and going to my high school

reunion. I know. That's where I'm
wondering if you'd mind taking me.

To my class reunion?

Why would you want to go to that?

Well, Mary, I never had a class reunion
of my own, being from a deprived area

and all. And I sort of, you know, wanted
to know what one was like.

Uh -huh. And I don't have anything to do
this weekend except sit around upstairs

in my lonely room.

Uh -huh.

And, uh, it occurred... to me that at
these reunion things, one might run into

lot of recently divorced men.

Ah, fine.

Hold on. Why don't you get away with it?
Hey, Mary, just let me take care of

that. Okay, fine. If you want to come
along, you're welcome to. I'd love the

company to tell you the truth. I wasn't
looking forward to that long drive.

Hey, you better hurry up and get packed.

I'm not feeling well.

Yes, I'm sure that I'll be fine by
Monday.

Thank you.

Hey, ma 'am, you can teach me the old
fight songs in the car.

Hi,

Mr. Grant, it's Mary.

Listen, you know, I'm not really sick.

You know, calling in sick.

Is this 1959?

Yes. Oh, hi, Estelle.

Arnell Howard.

How are you? That's Howard Arnell. I put
my last name first.

There's a comma there.

Is Mary Richards here yet?

Or isn't she coming? Oh, she'll be here.
All the old Viking queens are off

somewhere getting their pictures taken.
Well, that's a relief. Say, you're not

59, are you? Oh, no.

56, Estelle.

Well, 56 is meeting in the library.

Yeah, I know. It's a dull party.

The librarian keeps shushing me.

I just wanted to stick around, say hello
to Mary.

When I'm expecting a big 59 turnout, you
can't stick long.

Oh. Say, that's really cute, the way you
got your old picture on there.

56 only gave us a name. Oh, yes, just a
little idea I had.

I have this old yearbook and I just cut
out those pictures and blew them on

their name tags.

That way everybody can see what they
used to look like and give them a good

laugh. Oh, yeah. That's really going to
be funny.

Howard. Huh? Take off your shoes.

Take off my shoes? Yes. Coach asked it.
Said we could only use this gymnasium on

the condition that we don't scuff up his
basketball court.

Oh, okay.

Both shoes, Estelle?

Listen, couldn't I just take off one
shoe and then kind of hop around?

I'm really a good hopper. Both shoes,
Howard. We've all got both shoes off.

Yeah, but you see, I... Off or out.

Oh, doesn't she look terrific, Estelle?
Uh -huh. You know, I was really worried

you weren't coming.

Oh, no, we're here.

Yeah? Oh, Howard, you remember Rhoda
Morgenstern? Why, sure.

I haven't seen you since graduation.

Let me get a shot of you girls.

Well, Howard... Hold it.

You've changed, Rhoda.

I've blossomed.

expecting a big crowd any minute. Sure.

Hold it.

Howard, listen, I have to register here,
Howard, so look, why don't we just do

this later, okay?

Okay, Mayor. Okay.

Oh, let me take your coat. Oh, no,
that's okay. No, no, it's okay.

I got it.

Oh, Mayor, I'll be over there under the
backboard.

Good.

Why isn't he wearing any shoes?

Oh, were none of us wearing any shoes?

What is this, a sock hop?

It was the only way we could get to use
the gymnasium.

Ruth Gunderson had her eyes on it for
58, but I got it.

I just know we're going to have the most
terrific turnout.

Well, you sure got off to a terrific
start, all right.

See, I don't seem to remember you.

You're not 59, are you? No, Stella, 59.

Do I look like a 59?

Well, 62 was meeting in the cafeteria.

Well, I'm just going to hang around a
few minutes while Mary registers.

Mary Richards.

It is still Richards, isn't it?

Ah, yes.

It's still Mary, too.

So you've never been married, Mary?

No, Stella, I haven't. I've been married
twice.

She liked it so much the first time.

Oh, that figures.

What? You look exactly the same as you
did in high school, doesn't she,

Uh -uh.

Shoes off.

Oh, right. Just put them over there in a
row with the others.

Having fun so far?

Mary, look at the square with the crew
cut.

Last time I saw a guy in a haircut like
that was in a movie. He was going to the

electric chair.

Just, I just, uh... Oh, what the heck.

You and I don't have any secrets, do we,
Mary?

Look, I got a big hole in my sock.

Look at that.

Uh -huh.

Well, you certainly keep your toenails
looking nice.

Thank you.

I suppose you think it's one of those
cute bachelor things, huh? You know, a

grown guy like myself with a hole in my
sock.

It's adorable.

you girls like some punch?

Oh, I don't think so. Oh, Mayor, doesn't
this take you back? It sure does.

Mary Richards.

Oh, it's Ed Mims. Hi.

Hi, Ed. Howard Arnell, 56.

Remember me? No.

Rhoda Morgenstern, Ed Mims.

Rhoda. Oh, sure, Rhoda. Hey, how are
you? How have you been?

Fine, fine.

How's the wife and kids, Ed? Oh, I'm not
married.

When I was a sophomore, you were a
senior. I had the biggest crush on you.

Oh, there.

Hi. Hi.

Hello. Nobody knows me, right?

Well... No, to tell you the truth... I

didn't think you would.

Eldon Colfax?

That's me.

Little tubby Colfax. Gee, you don't look
anything like your picture. Hair

transplant, contact lenses, nose job.

Oh, I love your face.

It's getting there.

Well, what have you been doing with
yourself?

Oh, I've been having plastic surgery,
mostly.

I'll see you later.

Hi, I bet you don't know me, right?

Well, it certainly is interesting seeing
all the old faces. It sure is.

I see you've got one of those, uh,

Hippie style.

Over the years, kind of like that. Oh,
no, I don't think it's... Oh, well, I

guess I'll just stay with the old flat
top.

No, what are you doing these days, Ed?
I'm a barber.

Well, I guess some people might look at
me as being a little square.

What's wrong with being a little square?
I ask you, where would this country be

without us squares?

the cafeteria with me.

Uh, maybe. Well, 62's got a combo down
there. We can do some of the old dances.

Yeah, that'd be nice. Square dancing.

Oh.

Oh. Estelle, what's the matter?

11 people.

That's what's the matter.

We had a graduating class of 175 and 11
people show up.

It's a very nice 11, though. Oh, yeah.
You've done a heck of a job here,

Estelle. The class of 65 has 102.

Helen Westerberg told me they're packed
like sardines in the biology lab.

She wants me to trade and let them use
the gym.

Oh, our class never did have any spirit.
We didn't even have a full turnout for

graduation.

Your class never did have any spirit.

Mr. Vandermast, won't you say a few
words to everybody?

Ladies and gentlemen, Mr.

Vandermast.

Welcome back to Leith Erickson High,
students.

Estelle? Oh, he remembered.

Doesn't he have a marvelous memory,
doesn't he?

Thank you very much, and welcome back.

How about some of my punch, Mr.
Vandermast?

Mary Richards.

Oh, it's so nice to see you again, Mr.
Vandermast. Oh, formality isn't

necessary, Mary.

We're not principal and student anymore.

You don't want to make me feel like an
old man, do you, Mary?

Oh, no, no, of course not.

Vandy.

Don't be piggy with Vandy, Mary. Some of
the rest of us want to see him, too.

You're going to stay a while longer,
aren't you?

Oh, yeah, I guess I can stay a little
while.

Oh, good, because I understand there's
going to be a little presentation to you

later on.

To me?

What for?

I see you were talking to Mr. Vandermast
there. Yeah. Gee, I always liked him,

didn't you?

No.

Take your shoes off, Vandermast.

Listen, there.

I got to talk to you a minute.

Oh? Look, I just didn't happen to come
to this reunion. I came here to talk to

you. Well, what about, Howard?

Oh, look, Mayor, I pretend I like
playing the suave, eligible bachelor.

But it's all a game, Mayor. A big game.

Oh, I know.

Happy -go -lucky, Howard.

A lot of laughs, good times.

Mr. Hip, that's what you think, isn't
it, Mary?

Oh, no, no, Howard. I've never thought
of you as Mr.

Hip. Well, that's why you're special,
Mary.

See, that's why I had to see you. You
know what I need.

No, Howard, I don't think that I do.
Yes, you do, Mary. Don't you be modest.

There's something lacking in my life,
Mary.

Something, and that something is someone
like you.

Marry me Mary.

sweetest people I know, and I thank you
for wanting to marry me, but no, Howard.

Ben, do you have some girlfriends you
could introduce me to?

Oh, Mary, you don't know what it's like.
A man my age, what I have to go

through. Most of the girls I date are
such drags.

Oh, Mary, hi.

Hi. Oh, excuse me just a minute, Howard.

Oh, Mary, you'll do that for me, won't
you? Yeah, I'll try to think of someone.

What's the matter?

They really got square dancing down
there.

And Ed, you know, he loves it. He's
still down there.

He won't know I'm gone until he gets to
the do -si -do.

What's with Howard?

He wants me to introduce him to some
girls.

And you couldn't think of any, right?

Rhoda, you wouldn't be interested.

Howard is... Boring.

Boring, huh?

Yeah, he's kind of dopey. Yeah, dopey?

Well, to give you an example, I see him,
what, maybe once a year.

Every time I see him, he asks me to
marry him.

So, how would... Mary,

I always hoped that you would be back
here one day getting an award.

Well, I guess I don't know what I've
done to deserve one.

Oh, if you'd been coming to our...

unions every year, you'd know that
someone is always honored with a trophy.

A trophy?

Let me read you what it says.

To that member of the class of 1959 of
Leif Erickson High

School, who has come the furthest

You know what to say. I mean, I only
traveled 125 miles, so... That's

100 miles further than last year's
winter, Mary.

Oh! Well,

thank you. I just, I've never had an
honor bestowed upon myself like this

before, so it's hard, you know, to find
the words to express, I guess, what I'm

trying to say.
