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

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.

I've just got two questions for you,
Mayor.

Do you have any aspirin, and whose
birthday is it? Sure, and my mother's.

medicine cabinet, right? Right.

I'm taking my mother and father to
Emilio's for dinner to celebrate.

Oh, that's nice.

Hey, where is it? Over on Nicolette
Avenue.

No, the aspirin.

Oh.

Upper left -hand corner.

Oh, yeah, yeah, I see it.

Boy, Mary, you are really well
organized.

What do you mean?

Oh, you're the only person I know who
keeps a medicine cabinet in alphabetical

order.

Your mother just gave it to me. On her
birthday?

Well, see, I bought myself so many
gifts, I thought he ought to get

Come on in. Sit down for a minute.

Oh, Dad, before I forget, I got this for
you. I thought you'd get a kick out of

it. They claim it's the world's hardest
jigsaw puzzle.

Oh.

Supposed to take five years.

Oh, great.

Daddy, it looks like we don't have to
take that trip to Europe now. No.

There were good things about retirement.
Oh, Mary, as a matter of fact, I made

you a present with the last present you
gave me.

What? That little jewelry -making kit?

Oh, yes.

Oh, and he made me the cutest little
pin. Now, see, now, it's in here

Well, if you like it so much, how come
you never wear it? Where is that little

devil? What did he make for you?

a surgeon.

That's hardship.

See, um, see, those little blue things,
those are the veins, and that red thing

is the artery.

Well, uh, Dad, what's this little green
thing?

Oh, that's where I ran out of little
blue things.

Say, it'll look great with that dress
you've got on.

Oh, well, uh, then I'll wear it.

Thank you, Dad.

I hated the one I gave you last year.

Well, I love them both, and thank you,
sweetheart. Oh, you're welcome.

Now that I'm up, I'm going to go and
wash my hands.

That banister of yours is still dirty.

Gee, Dad, your hands don't look dirty. I
know, but I can feel it.

I never thought I would say this, but
your father's driving me right up the

wall. Oh, honey, retirement really
doesn't agree with him.

He's still having a hard time finding
things to do? Yeah.

Last week he must have taken my
temperature at least a hundred times.

Oh, Mom, I think that's kind of sweet.

That's what I thought.

But you know, he seemed so disappointed
when it was normal.

Well, ready to go?

Yeah, sure, all set.

Rhoda, honey, we'd love it if you could
join us for dinner.

You go right up and go to bed.

I'll go down to the car and get my bag.

I want to give you a shot. Now, please,
Doc, no. I don't want you to go into any

trouble. No, no, that's all right. I'd
like to feel useful around here.

Hey, Rhoda, if he wants to take out your
appendix, don't let him.

I cheated a little.

Well, I thought I'd just come up and try
to cheer you up.

Gee, that's nice of you, kid. Thanks a
lot.

Well,

when does this cheering up start?

I'm sorry. I was just thinking about
what happened tonight at dinner. What?

Something go wrong?

Well, my mother and I were talking about
drapes. Yeah.

And all of a sudden, my father joined
in.

He never cared about drapes before. I
mean, I don't think he even knew he had

drapes. He was always out fighting an
epidemic or something.

Now, all of a sudden, he's talking about
drapes. It's just sad.

I'm going to make you some tea.

Nice.

You'll feel better.

Terrific tea bag. Came with the
apartment.

Listen, Mary, doesn't your father have
any hobbies besides making midget

I mean, he hasn't made any friends yet.

My mother joined one of Phyllis' clubs
right away, and, of course, she has me,

but, boy, in this town, it isn't easy to
find a man to have fun with. You

telling me?

Mr.

Grant, can I get your signature?

And, uh, do you know what you're doing
for lunch today?

How many guesses do I get?

Okay, uh, you're gonna have lunch with
my father and me.

He's a surgeon, right?

Yes, he is.

Yeah. I used to go fishing with a
surgeon.

Boy, could that man clean a fish.

Of course, every once in a while, he had
a tendency to try and save one.

Okay.

What's that?

It's a heart.

It doesn't beat around...

Ed will become friends.

Well, you know, when a man is over 40,
he doesn't like to be told who to play

with.

I hope they hit it off. I paid over $12
for a couple of tickets to the ball

game. Well, what did you pay for them
for, Ed? The sportscaster always has

for free. No, no, no. If you're a woman
with Ed, they're not really for free.

How do you like those guys?

What's the matter?

Station's cheapo health plan won't pay
for my annual tune -up.

Oh, good.

For a minute, I had a picture of you up
there on the old lube rack.

Mary? Oh, Daddy, hi.

Hi, darling.

Daddy, this is Ted Baxter.

Oh? You've seen him do the news.

I certainly have.

Thank you. Thank you very much. It's
very nice of you to say that. I

appreciate it.

Of course, this little girl here helped
make me what I am. No, no, Ted, you've

done it all by yourself.

Well... Ah!

Mr. Grant, I'd like you to meet my
father, Walter Richards.

Daddy, this is Lou Grant.

Oh, you're Mary's boss.

Yeah. And you're Mary's father.

Well, then, shall we go?

My, my, it isn't every day I get to have
lunch with my two favorite men.

How come they didn't invite me?

Because Mary's looking for someone her
father could enjoy being with.

Oh, well, that explains it.

Oh, hi, Mary.

Hi, Riet.

I'd like a vodka martini.

What do you want to drink, Mary?

Oh, gosh, I don't know. I've got a lot
of work to do this afternoon.

If I have a drink, I won't be much good.

If I don't have a drink, I won't be much
good.

Yeah, be sure, because I hate making two
trips.

Daddy, thank you.

Daddy, you used to have a drink every
now and then.

That was before all the evidence was in
about what it does to you.

You know, most people think that alcohol
is a relaxer.

It's actually a depressant. I enjoy
getting a little depressed now.

I'd like to see the liver of a man who
drank a pint of milk a day.

I mean, you know, I wouldn't want to see
anyone's liver.

So, here I am having lunch with my two
favorite men.

Daddy, Mr. Grant's a terrific fisherman.
You love to fish, don't you?

Where'd you get that idea?

Oh, I don't play it.

I watch it on TV.

A little too much exercise for me.

You know, Mr. Grant, exercise is
terribly important for men our age.

I used to tell my patients, that is, I
used to tell my patients that carrying

around a lot of extra weight like that
puts a great strain on the old...

parmesan with spaghetti and an order of
garlic toast with lots of butter and

another drink.

Right.

Well, here I am having lunch with my
two... I keep

saying that, don't I?

Hey, guess what? I happen to have a
couple of free tickets to tonight's ball

game. You didn't get them from Ed the
Sportscaster, did you? Oh, no.

They're supposed to be great seats right
behind second base.

Put them in center field.

No kidding. I didn't know they were that
good.

So, if you guys are interested... No,
thanks, Mary. I think I'm going to be

tonight.

So am I, dear.

Rayette, would you like a couple of
tickets to tonight's ballgame? Oh, no,

you. I guess... all the free tickets I
need from Ed, the sports captain.

Well,

now, Mom, just be patient.

It takes a little time.

Oh, you sound just like my mother.

She was always trying to teach me to do
this.

needlepoint skips every other
generation.

Oh, your grandmother used to do
beautiful work.

Remember that lovely sampler she
embroidered for your grandfather's

We reserve the right to refuse...

to explain this to you before I say it,
because if I don't, you might take it

the wrong way and get upset.

You can tell me, because I don't get
upset.

Well, okay, I don't want to have you and
Daddy for dinner. I want to have Daddy

alone.

Daddy for dinner alone tomorrow night,
and then you and I will have dinner

on Thursday.

How's that?

Was that a nod, Mom? Then you're coming.
Terrific.

Murray, how does this menu sound to you?

Shrimp cocktail, salad, stuffed squab
with orange sauce, wild rice, and glazed

carrots. Terrific. Must be a special
guy.

Yeah, it is. My father. He's coming to
dinner alone for the first time. Before

you get to the petty fours, Have you got
the stuff on the Henderson trial?

Yes, sir. Right here.

Thank you. I really don't like glazed
carrots.

Neither do I.

Okay.

Make it green beans.

Hi,

guys.

Claire, are you all right?

Well, that's what I'm trying to find
out. I just came back from my physical.

Wait a second.

It's coming to me.

It's disgusting, but it's coming to me.

Old clothes, needs a shave, back pains.

I've got it.

Ted, you went to the free clinic for
your physical disease.

Yeah.

You know, I had to wait three hours.

All they did was tell me I didn't have a
drug problem or a social disease.

money to someone in the street once.
Could have been for that.

Thanks.

It's, uh, it's nice having your father
to dinner.

I like it.

Mr. Grant, do you ever have trouble
making conversation with your daughters?

Nah.

Well, maybe at first.

Then we always end up talking the night
away.

What kind of stuff do you talk about?

My grandchildren.

It's just going to be us girls tonight.

Listen, I thought we could, you know,
have a couple of drinks, dinner, see a

movie. Oh, terrific.

Where? How about on a plane to Paris?

Where's Danny? Oh, he's downstairs
parking. He'll be right up.

Say, um, Rhoda, could I meet you
upstairs in a couple of minutes after I

to Mary?

you tonight.

Oh, gosh.

I wish there was something I could do to
make it a wonderful, fun evening for

both of you.

I've got it. I'll stay.

Listen, Mom, we'll be just fine.

Well, it's going to be awful quiet
around here. You know, your father's not

talkative man.

We'll talk.

Oh, I'd like to see that.

Oh, come on. You've been talking to him
for years.

Yeah, but it just never bothers me when
he doesn't answer.

What's this all about?

Oh, nothing special.

It's just that I thought it would be
nice if you and I spent some time

alone. We don't often get a chance to do
that, and so I just thought it would be

nice to do that.

Oh?

So, why don't we sit down? Here's some
tomato juice and guacamole.

That's Mexican, isn't it? Yeah, it is.

How do you make that?

Well, at first you take an avocado.

mash it up real fine.

Hey, Dad, you're not interested in how I
make guacamole. Yes, yes, yes I am. No,

you're not.

You're just saying that to make
conversation.

We don't have to talk about guacamole to
make conversation. We've got lots to

talk about.

Okay.

Only now that we're talking about having
lots to talk about, we're going to be

conscious of every little silence.

I'm aware of this one.

So come on, let's just talk, okay?

Oh, yes, who I ran into the other day.
Bobby Morgan.

No kidding.

Yeah, I did.

Who's Bobby Morgan?

Dad, you remember he's the boy I went
with when I was a senior in high school?

Come on, Dad, you remember you and Mom
came home early one night and you found

Bobby and me with the...

If he'd come to my graduation, he
probably would have known that.

He gave the farewell speech.

Are you mad because I didn't hear his
farewell speech?

No.

No, I'm mad because you didn't hear the
class poem I wrote.

Oh, Mary, I couldn't help that. I know,
I know. You had to do that gallbladder

operation. Oh, no.

No, it wasn't a gallbladder. That was a
tonsillectomy.

my graduation for a tonsillectomy?

Mom told me it was an emergency
gallbladder thing, you know, which I

but a tonsillectomy?

Yeah, but he had adenoids, too.

Besides, I thought I could make it, but
once I got in there, I got held up.

Gee, I worked for months on that poem,
you know.

I mean, some people thought it was
pretty good.

So did I.

Oh, come on, Dad. You didn't even hear
it.

So here's to the halls of wisdom to
which we say goodbye.

We'll never be the same again, so
farewell, Roseburg High.

How'd you know that?

I was listening outside your door when
you were practicing.

Did you like it?

I remembered it, didn't I?

Well, why'd you wait till noon to say
something? I mean, why didn't you tell

then? How?

What happened?

to cut myself. It's okay.

It's a tiny one. Come on, let me look at
it. No.

When you were a little girl, you
wouldn't let me look when you cut

I was always afraid you'd stitch it up.

Come on.

You don't cry when you cut your finger
anymore?

No.

I cut myself a lot.

You know, I never could handle these
things.

Here.

Mary?

Are you ever lonely?

No, not too often, Daddy.

I have a good life.

Well, it isn't always dumb things that
make me cry.

There, that should be all right.

Careful how you handle knives.

Hey, Daddy.

You bandaged the wrong finger.

He's wonderful.

You know something? My dad is really a
good guy.

How was your date with my mother?

Fantastic. We went to a singles bar.

My mother went to a singles bar? Yeah,
she passed.

Had a great time.

And I met, for the first time in my
life, in one of those places, an actual

guy.

Intelligent, sincere.

Oh, Rhoda, really?

Yes. Guess what? He works with you at
the station. You're kidding. Who?

His name's... He's a sportscaster.
