All language subtitles for Mary Tyler Moore s04e13 I Gave at the Office

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 all.

Well, will you let me know if you hear
of anything?

Thanks.

Morning. Oh, morning, Lou. I just can't
wake up today.

Why am I totally out of it until I have
my first cup of air?

I'll make some, Lou. Ah, Murr. I used to
be a news writer. I remember hating it

when my boss asked me to do piddling
little things like make coffee.

Besides, your coffee stinks.

Mr. Grant, I'll make the coffee for you.
No, Mary, you're an associate producer.

Anyway, we got this memo from personnel
about how you treat women different.

Don't give them those crummy little jobs
like women are supposed to do.

Mr. Grant, I really don't mind making it
for you. You see, you don't agree with

that memo, do you?

Well, I sort of suggested it.

Mary, you don't have to have memos sent
to me to get me to respect you. I'm

dying for coffee, but I respect you.

You really ought to hire somebody to do
those crummy little things like make

coffee. Either that or I'll find
somebody I don't respect.

Hi, guys.

Once again, God works the mysterious
way.

What a nice thought to start the day.

Hi, Ted.

Hi, Lou. We were wondering if you'd mind
making us some coffee.

Come on, is this a gag?

You think I think I'm too big to make
coffee.

You think I'll poo -poo the idea,
thinking I'm too important a person to

making your paltry, stupid little small
potatoes coffee.

I'll show you how humble tip -backs can
be.

I'll show you. I'll make the coffee.

How do you make coffee, Mayor?

It's probably like making tea.

Where are the coffee bags?

Newsroom. Oh, hi.

And personnel said no job.

Okay, thanks anyway.

Moonlighting on the side, Murray?

No, it's for my daughter.

I'm trying to find her a summer job.

Hey, Murray, remember Mr. Grant said
that he wanted us to get someone to do

things like making coffee.

Wouldn't Bonnie be just perfect?

You know, I was thinking about that too,
Mayor, but I didn't want to ask.

Hey, that would be terrific, you know.
My kid's first real job and with her

father. We could have lunch together.

Hey, Mary, that would be wonderful.

Okay, it's done.

No, no, no. I don't want to be one of
the... who makes things easy for his

you know?

I want you to treat her like anybody
else, you know? Interview a lot of kids

the job. Oh, Mary, I don't need to
interview anyone else. Mary, I want her

get the job because she's the best for
it, not because she's my daughter, but

just interview a lot of kids for it.

Then hire her.

Now, I'm kidding. Hey, guys, if you're
looking for somebody to make coffee

around the office, how about my mother?

How about your mother, Ted? Oh, Mary, it
would mean so much to her.

To be here in the newsroom.

Well, around me.

Give us something to live for.

Something for an old woman to wake up
for in the morning. Ted, I really don't

think so.

Good, she'd have gotten on my nerves
anyway.

That's the film library, and that's Mr.
Grant's office. And I guess that's about

it. I hope it's not all too confusing.

No, I'll get the hang of it. Okay.

Why don't we start you out right away?
You can make a pot of coffee.

Mr. Grant likes his as soon as he gets
in.

And then maybe you could alphabetize the
files.

Sure. She doesn't have a desk, Mayor.
Shouldn't she have a desk?

Well, maybe a little table or something.

I don't need a desk, Daddy.

Well, well, well.

Who is this?

Hi, Mr. Baxter.

I'm Bonnie Slaughter.

Bonnie Slaughter. Good heavens, look at
you.

But the last time I saw you, you were...

look pretty much the same.

Then again, that was only a couple of
weeks ago.

Daddy, you never told me how much fun
Mr. Baxter is to work with.

Didn't I?

Anybody gives you any trouble, you just
come to Uncle Ted.

Bonnie, in no way is that man your
uncle.

Morning. Morning. Morning.

Murray, you have that editorial, don't
you? Oh, not yet, Lou. Oh, Lou.

This is my little daughter, Bonnie.

Bonnie, this is Mr. Grant.

See, Mary hired her to help out, you
know, make coffee, do the files, things

like that.

Ah, that's great. We could use it. Glad
to meet you, Bonnie.

Thank you. Yeah.

Hey, Mary, can I talk to you a minute?

Do you have the time?

Sure.

Let me start off with the most positive
attitude I can summon up.

No.

No? No.

No Bonnie, no Murray's daughter, no.

It's not that I object to your hiring
somebody without asking me. Not at all.

What I object to is you're doing
something dumb without asking me. Hiring

people's daughters is dumb.

Well, why is that dumb?

Because you can't be yourself around
people's daughters. You can't yell at

people's daughters.

The only thing you can do around
people's daughters is go around saying,

Isn't she going to break a few hearts in
a couple of years?

No. Mr. Grant, she's really a great kid.
You can just be yourself. No, I can't.

She's a daughter. More specifically,
she's Murray's daughter, which means I

can't swear, which cuts my vocabulary in
half.

Nobody is asking you to change your
entire way of life. I was just

you could maybe make a minimal effort.

I don't want to make a minimal effort. I
don't have to make a minimal effort.

I'm a boss.

I don't even like saying minimal.

Murray's daughter?

No, I didn't mean that we should let her
go. I just meant that she

shouldn't work here any longer.

Mary, I'm already feeling a strain
because there is a word I would like to

which I can't because she is in the next
room.

I want to say it so much. I would feel
so relaxed if only I could say it. Mr.

Grant, look, it's just for the summer.
Only three months.

Balderdash!

That wasn't a word.

Mr. Grant.

I don't even know what that word means.

Mr. Grant, look, it's her first day.
Couldn't we just give it a chance?

All right.

All right.

We'll give it a chance. We'll give it a
chance until it doesn't work out, and

then we'll stop.

Okay? Okay.

Oh, and since this is her first real
job, you know, if...

If you could make an effort to be warm
to her, it would really be nice.

I didn't plan on having to change my
personality to get a cup of coffee in

morning, Mary.

Well, no, I just meant... You did this.
Back in the newspaper days, you know

what we did when we needed extra help?

We hired a wino.

They make great coffee and you don't
have to be warm.

in a minute, Lou, as soon as I finish
cleaning up Barney's new desk.

Murray, the station manager wants to see
that editorial by 11.

Yeah, well, I've got it in my head, Lou.
I just have to type it up. I just want

to make this nice and clean for Barney
before she gets back.

Murray, why don't you try doing
something nice for me? Sit yourself down

start writing that editorial before I
compliment you on what a wonderful job

you're doing around here.

No, baby, it'll only take a few minutes.

Good morning, all.

Look what I found in the mail room.

Well, well, well, is that Bonnie over
there?

Hi, Bonnie.

Bonnie?

Hi, Mr. Baxter.

Ted, just what do you think you're
doing?

He's Rick Welsh, 19 years old, track
team, University of Minnesota.

I said to myself, Ted Baxter, you old
matchmaker.

I think you've got yourself one terrific
El Macho.

I hope I'm not embarrassing you two
kids.

Wait.

Listen,

she's only 15.

Oh, come on, Murr.

Nowadays, 15 is practically middle
-aged.

Bonnie, did you say hello to Rick?

Hi, Rick.

Hi, Bonnie.

Well, well, do I see sparks flying?

not doing anything tonight, and if we
all looked away for a second to let you

ask her out, I'm sure Bonnie will say
yes, won't you, Bonnie?

Well... Well, I don't know if these are
the perfect circumstances, but would you

like to go to a movie tonight?

Sure, I'd love to.

Well, great. I'll pick your buddy to
clap.

Sparks, old buddy, Sparks.

Bonnie, you can't come out with me.
Daddy, excuse me. He doesn't have the

address. I'll be right back.

Mary, it's not that bad.

That old guy.

Going out with my little girl.

Oh, come on. I thought he was a very
cute boy.

Boy? A cute boy?

Mary, he's 19.

He's old enough to be a sailor.

You know what guys are like when they're
19, Mary?

Well, when I was 19, I... Well,
actually, I was almost 21.

But I could have been 19.

Right, right.

I'm kind of nervous.

But fun.

Right, right.

Murray, why are you doing the time
sheets? Oh, well, Bonnie had a little

problem. I thought I'd help her out.

Oh.

going to talk about Murray doing
Bonnie's work instead of his own. Yes,

Graham. Well, then, I wonder if you
could tell me what I'm going to say now.

Oh, probably that Bonnie has to go.

That Bonnie has to go, Mary?

That's positively uncanny.

You and I are developing a nonverbal
communication hitherto experienced

only by certain birds and fish.

could make the effort to talk to me
without being sarcastic.

Was I being sarcastic?

Well, how fortunate for me that you are
here to point out my little character

flaws.

Yesterday, I learned to be warm.

And today I learned I'm too sarcastic.

I'll be forever in your debt.

That's exactly what I'm talking about,
Mr. Grant.

It's very hard for me to stand up to you
and say something like that. I'm just

not a person who goes around criticizing
people. So you must know that when I do

say something like that, it's important
to me.

So now I'm insensitive too, huh?

I'm so glad you happened into my life to
point out these... All right, forget

it, please. Forget. Just all about it.
Please forget it. Forget it. Really,

forget it. Forget it.

I just think you could say...

Bonnie has to go.

Okay, Bonnie has to go. How could you
say that, Mr. Grant?

This is her second day.

Come in.

Here's your coffee, Mr. Grant. Oh, thank
you, Bonnie dear.

Excuse me, Bonnie, sweetheart.

This isn't my cup.

I beg your pardon? No, my cup is brown
and has Lou written on it. L -O -U. In

big white letters. You must have seen
it.

Oh, yeah.

Mr. Grant?

I tell you this, but I just broke your
cup.

I'm really sorry. I'll buy you another
one.

Oh, hey.

There's nothing to be sorry about. It's
not important. It's just a cup.

I'm really sorry. No, no, no, no, no,
no.

It's not important at all. Just a cup.
Hey, do you even believe that we're

standing here talking about a cup?

I love that cup. cup, Mary.

Well, all right, I will go out and buy
you another cup with loo on it, just

the old one. No, you can't, Mary.

Oh, Mr. Grant, I imagine that somewhere
in this city there's another cup just

like it. Oh, no, you're being sarcastic,
Mary.

You are, Mary, you are, and you do it
lousy.

Mr. Grant, will you please just forget
what I said about sarcasm? No, about...

You can't find me another one like that
brown cup, Mary.

Because my daughter, Sarah, made that
cup for me in camp when she was 12 years

old. I love that cup, Mary.

I'm really sorry, Mr. Grant. I didn't
know that.

Her camp counselor said it was the best
cup anybody made.

Not just in Camp Saginaw. In the world.

That includes everybody.

That even includes the Renaissance
artists.

I had three daughters like that, Mary.

Three of them who were smart and cute
and just adorable to have around.

But none of them ever worked in this
office, did they?

Well, no, Mr. Grant, that's true. They
didn't.

Murray has one daughter.

One daughter who's out there now.

I trust you understand my point, Mary.

Gee,

Mr. Grant, I'm really not sure I do.

Mary, that's sarcasm.

Oh, is it?

Well, recapping of tonight's news,
headlights.

That's headlines.

Sometimes when people ask me what I do
and I want to impress them, I tell them

I'm unemployed.

I know that you haven't had time to take
care of that little matter we talked

about, but I know that as soon as the
news is over, you will take care of it.

And the Senate is due to vote on it
sometime this week.

And now we pause to bring you this brief
commercial message.

There seems to be a holdup on the
commercial message or something.

Just doesn't seem to be here. But I can
assure you it isn't my fault.

Bonnie!

Bonnie, the film!

You... Film!

Mary,

was that the film?

I think she's going to be a little late
with it.

Come on, Lou. She's just a kid. She's
entitled to a little mistake.

Let me see, what commercial was that?

Oh, oh, yes.

It was one about that woman that visits
her friend, and she goes into the

bathroom, and she notices something
funny, a little funny about the water.

blue.

So she lifts up the top of the tank, and
guess what she sees?

She sees this little man in there,
standing up in this little rowboat, and

got a captain's head on, and he's
playing the maracas.

Of course, she doesn't answer because
she's so surprised.

And he proceeds to tell her how she can
have blue water in her mouth.

And then he puts the top back on the
tank.

And now, back to the news.

Larry, we'll write the sponsor a letter.
You'll think of something.

And tomorrow, we'll call our lawyers and
see if we're liable for anything.

Okay, honey. Bonnie, that wasn't a good
thing to do.

It really wasn't.

In fact, you might even say it was a
dumb thing to do.

I know.

Hey, Lou, come on. Come on, that's only
a little mistake.

Hey, I make mistakes.

Mary makes mistakes.

Yes, even you make mistakes.

Now, look, Murray. Oh, Bonnie, could you
help me with something in the supply

room?

Mary, you will take care of this.

Mr. Gray. Mary?

Yes, I will take care of it. Good.

Hey, what's going on? What did that mean
when Mary said she'd take care of it

and you said good?

It's your daughter, Murray.

It's just not working out.

I have no idea what you're referring to.

Murray, Bonnie, she's just not right for
the job.

Lou, would you say what you said just
once more?

I said, Bonnie's just not right for the
job.

Okay, would you say that just once more?

She's crummy for the job.

Hey, Lou, step outside.

Oh, Murray, come on. Oh, I'm not
kidding, Lou. You said my daughter was

Now step outside.

There, hold that.

Oh, wait a minute. That's not right.

Put it on the hanger.

I'm not going to put it on the hanger.

Murray, this is your new jacket. You
just bought this jacket. You love this

jacket. I have no time for loving
jackets now, Lou. Now, come on, step

What do you mean, step outside? We're on
the 18th floor.

Okay, then we'll settle it right here.
Come on, right here. Murray, hey,

I'm not going to fight you. Come on,
Lou, you've got to fight me. I don't

to fight you.

Hey, Lou, come on.

Please.

Show me some compassion.

I'm upset.

daughter dumb.

Now you won't give me the satisfaction
of fighting with me, Lou.

Hey, Lou, come on, we're all friends.

You should help me out a little bit.

Okay, I didn't realize it was that
important to you. I'll fight you.

I don't want to fight Lou.

Come on, let's go outside.

Maybe you'll feel like it. Lou, you're
patronizing me again.

Marie, I'm not... Hey, Lou, how'd you
like the way I saved that commercial?

Quick thinking, right?

Hey, Murray, your daughter's really
lousing things up around here.

Okay, Ted, you're next.

Lou's first, you're second.

Wait a minute. You're first and Lou's
second.

First, huh? Thanks, Murray.

It's about time we got a little
recognition around here.

Murray, I'll see you tomorrow.

Oh, no, Lou, no. We're going to settle
this right here and now.

Listen, if it's that important to you,
Bonnie can stay.

No,

Mr. Grant, she can't. I just let her go.

You're third.

I just came back to say goodbye to
everybody.

Sorry it didn't work out. It worked out,
honey. It worked out.

I mean, you can't help it. You had an
impossible boss to work for.

Yeah. Now, look, everything's going to
be fine. What do you say we have dinner

and we can talk?

I can't. I have a date with Rick.

In fact, he's waiting outside.

Oh, that nice kid? Well, okay, okay. But
don't be home late. And remember, you

and I have a date to go shopping on
Saturday, right? Okay. Yeah, and call me

you want a job recommendation.

Okay, thanks.

Bye, honey. Bye, everybody.

Bye -bye.

The one who really disappointed me was
you.

Marie, don't blame me.

Don't blame you? Why shouldn't I blame
you? You're the one that fired Barney.

Well, he made me do it.

having to tell that kid she lost her
first job. I'm going to feel badly about

for days.

And now I'm going to feel terrible about
what I just said to you.

I'm going home now.

Good night.

Uh, look.

Look, Murray.

Today you're mad.

It's going to take a long time for me to
be over this.

No, no.

You'll see. You'll see.

You'll be over this by tomorrow morning.

No.

Tomorrow afternoon, I could probably be
over it.

About three o 'clock.

You want to go out for a drink?

Tomorrow.

Watch it, sip it slowly so you can
really taste all the different blends.

This is a special mocha blend with a
Guatemalan bean and a Nicaraguan dark

Mostly Nicaraguan, but a little touch of
Guatemalan for a body.

That, along with my little secret, gives
it the deep, rich, satisfying flavor.

Tastes a lot like tea.

That's my secret.

So, how's Bonnie doing? Oh, terrific.

She's got a new job.

Working a little coffee shop outside
near the school, you know. All the kids

hang out there.

A lot of boys.

Oh, is she going to break a lot of
hearts?

Yeah.

And a lot of cups.
