All language subtitles for Whos The Boss s02e23 Theres No Business L

There is more to life than what's your
lip. Take a chance and face the wind.

Open road and a road that's hit. Brand
new life around the bend.

There were times I lost a dream or two.

Found a trail.

At the end was you.

There's a path we take and a path not
take.

The choice is up to you, my friend.

The nights are long, but you might awake
to a brand new life.

Brand new life. Brand new life around
the bend.

Hello, everybody. I'm home.

Hello. Hello, I'm Angela Bauer.

I'm Norman Bevins.

I live here.

I don't.

I know Mona.

Does it, everybody?

Pardon me.

Don't you find those shoes restrictive?

Oh, no, actually not these, no.

I do have this pair of red pumps that
sort of pinch me.

Will you excuse me for a moment?

Why is there a barefoot man in my living
room?

Kitchen floor was too cold for him.

That is Norman. He is the number one
designer of shoes at Hadley's.

But I don't know. Somehow or another,
lately, he's lost his enthusiasm.

He's also lost his shoes. I know.

Norman is the toughest case of my
career.

Oh, Mother, I'm sure you can handle it.

After all, you're the best personnel
director that Hadley's has ever had.

That's true.

But then, of course, I'm the only one
they've ever had.

See, I thought I was making real headway
with Norman.

Everybody was so looking forward to his
new design.

And then... What do you think?

If Tina Turner goes out for the Knicks,
you got the shoes.

What's with this guy?

Well, if you ask me...

I would call it a classic case of
repressed creativity.

How do you know that?

Mona told me.

See, we were right in the middle of a
session when the factory closed for the

night, and I know he just seems so
depressed. I hated to send him away.

Mother, may I make a suggestion?

Yes, dear. Well, since he's here, maybe
he should talk to somebody who's outside

of the shoe business.

Someone who's successful.

Someone who's leading a full, well
-balanced life.

That's a great idea.

Come on, Tony.

The little one goes to market.

Uh, Norman.

Norman, I believe that you know Angela
and Tony.

Yo, Norman.

And I thought, Norman, that we should
all have a little chat.

Oh. Come on, I don't want to lay my
problems on these people.

I'm sick of designing sensible shoes.

Shorter heels, thicker soles, more
supports, rougher colors. I'm telling

it's the bland leading the bland.

Norman would like to add some meaning to
his life.

What you do is so important.

Shoes provide a wonderful service for
humanity.

She's right. Without them, how would you
cover up the holes in your socks?

Shoes don't make holes. People do.

Okay.

Norman, do you know what I think?

I think that you need variety in your
life, huh? I mean, take Tony.

Tony, for example. I mean, all day long,
he scrubs, vacuums, cooks, washes,

irons, folds, sweeps, dusts, mops.

And disinfects.

But in his spare time, he coaches Little
Lee.

And he is president of the Parents
Association.

Pretty amazing, aren't I?

I don't like baseball, and I wouldn't
want to be president of anything.

Except maybe Uganda.

Call me crazy.

Come on, Norman, you must have other
interests or hobbies. Music, literature.

An ant farm.

Well, now that you brought it up, there
is one thing I always dreamed of.

I guess you'd call it a...

Secret fantasy.

Does it involve high -heeled sneakers?

All right, Norman. Come on, share it
with us. What is it?

No, you're just going to laugh.

Oh. No, no, no. Hey, hey, hey. What, are
you kidding me? You're among friends

here. Come on.

All right.

Do you see it?

No,

no, no. Here, here.

My resemblance to Clint Eastwood.

Which movie?

All of them.

Ever since I saw him blow that guy away
in Dirty Harry, I always dreamed of

being a serious actor.

Well, Norman, why don't you follow your
dream?

The Fairfield Community Theater is
always looking for talent. Yeah, this

they're doing Death of a Salesman.

I could do death.

This summer.

This summer, they threw a barefoot in
the park.

You were sure with him.

Oh, you really got me excited now.

Norman.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

Thank you all.

You made my day.

Because my daughter's teaching him all
my moves.

How about another number, Sam?

See, Jonathan, do you think you could
afford it?

You're already in the hole for a buck
fifty.

Dips were extra.

Jenny Wittner dips for a dime.

So I've heard.

I'll get that.

I've seen this lady before in my life.

Hey, look, the kid's got blue eyes.

You're Mona Robinson, aren't you? Yes.

I'm Mrs. Norman Bevins.

This is my son, Clint Bevins.

I just stopped in to let you know that
you've ruined our lives.

Oh, now, now, be calm, be calm. Come on,
let's just start at the beginning.

I'm Mrs. Norman Bevins. This is my son.

I meant from the part where I ruined
your life.

Norman followed your advice.

He quit his job to follow his dream.

Oh, no. You mean he went to Uganda?

No.

Hollywood.

Oh, that's worse.

Libby, I don't understand how Norman
could just fly off to Hollywood without

advance notice.

He went standby.

He wanted Clint and me to come.

But California's no place for us.

All those earthquakes, mudslides, sushi
bars.

Hey,

let me hold it, baby.

This way you could cry with both hands,
all right?

Libby, Libby, I think you should talk to
Norman in person.

You mean go to Los Angeles?

Yes.

Oh, I couldn't do that.

It's such a big city.

Well, New York is a big city. You've
been there, haven't you? No.

What now, Counselor?

Would you like something to drink?

Oh, she's good. She's good.

Well, I meant tea or coffee. Those are
stimulants.

Water? Too many chemicals.

Do you have a diet cola?

I'll help you, Mother.

Life stinks.

No, I don't think it's life.

Angela, what have I done here? I mean, I
have ruined an employee's career. I've

torn his family apart. Why did I ever
get involved in this in the first place?

Because it's your job, Mother, and
because you care.

Well, maybe I'm no good at my job.

Maybe I can't do anything.

Maybe I should go into advertising.

Mother, if this were my problem, you'd
know what to do, and you would tell me.

I would, wouldn't I?

What would I say?

You'd say, you sure made a mess of
things, and it's your job to go

out. Uh -huh, and I'd be right, too.

Then what would I say?

Then you would say, you're a competent
person. You get on that plane, and you

out to California, and you talk to
Norman.

I am brilliant, aren't I?

for the joke about my hair.

You know, it's really very good advice,
and I'm glad I thought of it.

No, never mind.

Well, that about wraps it up, buddy.
There you go, Clint.

He's all right. What a big boy he is.

Here.

Libby, I want you to pack your bags.

We are going to get on a plane and we're
going out to Hollywood and we're going

to bring Norman back.

We?

You mean you'd go there with me? Well,
of course I would.

Would you go alone?

No, Libby, I need you.

Norman is out there being tempted by
bouncing beach girls and shapely

We've got to get out there and fight
fire with...

Whatever we've got.

Maybe you're right.

Oh, but I can't take Clint on the plane.

Oh, Libby, Clint will be fine.

You will be fine.

Air travel is the safest form of
transportation.

Oh, but what if he cries during the
movie and they ask me to step outside?

Don't you know anybody here that could
help take care of him?

family other than... Norman.

Well, I know somebody who's great with
children. Somebody who's experienced,

responsible, and mature.

Coming in for a landing.

How's that, huh?

You know, Clint, you're not too
talkative.

How about this? How about this? There
once was a baby named Clint whose belly

button didn't have any lint.

How about this?

How about this here?

Hush, little baby, don't say a word.

Tony's going to buy you a mockingbird.

If that mockingbird don't sing, Tony's
going to buy you a diamond ring.

I hope the bird sings.

Can't afford the ring, you get it?

Hi, Tony.

Oh, hi, Angela.

What are you doing home so early?

Early? It's lunchtime.

Come on, it's not even noon yet.

Why do you leave your place so early?

Because I am the president.

Oh, I see you found Jonathan's old
cradle.

Yeah. Do you remember when he used to
rock Samantha?

Yeah. Well, we didn't really have a
cradle.

But my daughter had the best laundry
basket in the neighborhood.

Except on wash day when...

We have to move it to the dresser
drawers.

Oh, is that thing tough to rock?

Oh, look.

Look what I bought for my special boy.

Look, he likes it.

Oh, you have the cutest little eyes and
the cutest

little nose and the cutest little...

Don't worry.

We'll get him back.

Mona Robinson always gets her man.

It's too late.

He's already in a real Hollywood movie
of the week. Norman!

Sweetheart! I need you!

This must be his big entrance.

Here's a super sandwich for a superstar.

About time.

Where's my pickle?

Isn't it in there?

No.

And this isn't corned beef. This is
pastrami.

You call yourself a gopher.

He's not even an actor.

He's just a flunky.

Well, this is going to be easier than I
thought. We're going to have him out of

here and back on the next plane.

Libby, you're here.

I want you to come home.

Are you kidding? I got a great job in a
real Hollywood deli.

Did you see who just talked to me? She's
a big star.

She knows Sally Struthers.

Norman, I am a counselor, and I don't
want to get too technical on you, but

you're acting like a jerk.

Norman, what about the dream?

Norman.

If you wanted to quit your job and
deliver sandwiches, well, what's wrong

the deli back home?

Because they don't have a sandwich named
after Pernell Roberts.

Libby, this is Hollywood. I'm making
important contacts. I am meeting

sensitive people.

You call this a script?

I wouldn't line a birdcage with it.

Get me the producers and stop fussing
with my hair, you little trick!

Isn't she something?

No inhibitions.

Norman, this is crazy.

Mona, didn't you ever do anything crazy
before?

Well, a lot of people think everything I
do is crazy.

Like, for instance, when I went back to
college at my age, a lot of people

thought I was one brick short of a load.

Of course, they did like the way it was
stacked.

Norman, where is my pickle?

What should I do?

Oh, to hell with it.

Hadley's can get another shoe designer.

Norman, look, if this is what you really
want to do with your life, well, I say

go for it.

Libby?

Come on, Libby.

Shoes were meant to be a pair.

Well...

Go give the lady her pickle.

I love Hollywood endings.

Okay, ready? Here we go.

All right, now wait, wait.

Toe, knee.

Here you go.

Come on, come on, say it.

Come on, anybody can say it. Tony!

See?

How yourself, cutie.

Talking to Clint.

Can I feed him? Oh, no, come on. No,
please, please.

Really.

Last time before Norman and Libby come
and get him. All right, all right, all

right. Yeah, I guess so.

Little surfer boys off to California,
huh? Yeah. Little kid.

You know, he's going to be a good
surfer, you know. He spent a lot of time

wetsuit.

Kid. Okay.

Go.

Open your mouth.

Close your eyes, and you will get a big
surprise.

I can't believe this.

What? Baby's going for that cutesy
stuff.

Let me show you how to do it.

Let me just show you.

Loaded with delicious...

Action Adventure is in.

Hey,

did you hear that? What?

The kid just said pony.

I don't think so. I'm serious.

I think he's getting ready to say it
again.

Oh,

Torino, you are wonderful.

Look how you do everything for this
baby. You know, you would make a

mother. Yeah, what about you? You dash
home from the office, spend a minute

the kid, make a mess. You'd be a great
father.

I miss having a baby around.

Yeah, it's kind of fun having somebody
to do my housework with.

Hey, Anza, you ever think about having
another one?

A baby?

Oh, I'd love to.

I'm from the kid.

Guess you won't be needing this stuff
for a while, huh?

Guess the next baby around here will be
Samantha's.

What do you mean? I'll kill him.

In several years, through when she gets
married.

Grandpa told me to.

I like it. I like it.

Here.

Sure is quiet around here without the
clinster.

you sell it when someone's out there
giving it away?

Grandpa, do you still have a tango in
you?

I think I got one.
