All language subtitles for Whos The Boss s03e02 Angela Gets Fired Part 2

There's a time for love and a time for
living. Take a chance and face the wind.

Open road and a road that's hidden. A
brand new life around the bend.

There were times I lost a dream or two.

And found a trail.

And at the end was you.

There's a path you take and a path not
taken.

The choice is up to you, my friend.

Nights are long, but you might awaken to
a brand new life, a brand new life, a

brand new life.

Drink me?

Pour me.

It's set.

What am I supposed to do with this?

Play me.

I knew that.

Hello, Angela.

I just wanted you to know that the juice
is fresh squeezed, the coffee's fresh

ground, and I'm the one who got you
burned.

What did you say? I said I'm the one who
got you fired.

Look at the bright side. You don't have
to go back to that office anymore.

I could have told you this all in
person.

But I thought this way would be a lot
less painful for both of us.

You're mad at me, aren't you?

You hate me, don't you?

You want to kill me, right?

Cat got your tongue?

I worked ten years for that job, and now
it's gone. My life is in shambles. Why

did you do this to me?

Because I like you.

Come on, Angela.

Come on, Angela. You needed that
vacation.

You were headed for executive burnout.
I'm talking great balls of fire.

You can't blame me, can you? Yes.

I thought so.

But the flowers?

stomach shrink in case mom doesn't find
another job. But we can't afford food.

Jonathan, you're not going to starve in
Connecticut.

Haven't you ever heard of happy hour?

You can live forever on those little hot
dogs and chicken wings.

What if she never gets another job?

What if we end up poor and miserable?

Don't worry about it. Everything's going
to be okay.

Nothing's going to change.

Trust me.

Dad, did Angela find a job yet?

fired yesterday.

Well, what's he waiting for? What if we
had to sell the house and move to the

slums?

Or a condo?

Yeah, where would that leave us?

I can't move back to Brooklyn without my
accent.

All right, look, the two of you, sit
down here. You listen up, the two of

Sure, you're upset that Angela got
fired, but aren't we being a little

here, huh?

Huh? What about her feelings?

What about her future?

What about me?

How are you, dear? I'm terrible. I just
found out that Tony was the one who got

me fired.

Well, have you thanked him yet?

Thanked him? For what?

He kept you from killing yourself with
work.

He helped you see what was really
important in life. He made you take a

vacation. And thanks to him, you had a
terrific time.

It wasn't so terrific. I'm starting to
peel.

Oh, Angela, you...

You lose your job because Tony threw
away a telephone message. You lost your

because you had the personal integrity
to stand up to Wallace and McQuaid.

How could I be so stupid? I blew the
best job of my career. I'm never going

get anything as good.

Oh, Angela, you used to come home from
school and say you'd failed.

And you always got an A. You were
worried that you wouldn't graduate. And

were valedictorian.

You said you wouldn't get a date for the
prom.

Well, that's another story.

But the point is, you always come
through.

You're a winner.

I didn't know you felt that way about
me.

I have to. I'm your mother.

And as your mother, I want you to have
this.

of unpaid rent. Oh, Mother, I couldn't
take that from you. Oh, Angela, look.

I would have had to pay at least $500 a
month for any other apartment, huh?

Of course, I would have a better view.

And two bathrooms.

And a doorman.

But I insist.

No, Mother, I really can't take this.

Okay.

Oh, look, Angela.

I know you're mad at me.

But I got an idea.

I'm going to march right into that
Wallace and McQuaid, and I'm going to

them, look, it was my fault. I didn't
give you the message.

And don't worry. I'm going to have them
eaten out of my hand. And before long,

you'll have your job back, a better
office, and a raise.

Tony, it's okay. I'm not mad at you
anymore.

Oh, great. I would have never got past
the receptionist.

Len Putney.

Putney Pools.

My card.

Nice touch.

Kidney -shaped.

You're the pool man. I forgot we were
building a pool.

Oh, yeah.

Listen, pal, we're sorry you had to come
all the way out here for nothing, but

things have changed. You know, because
of circumstances.

You got canned, huh?

Oh, hey, hey, hey.

A lady at Mrs. Bower's level does not
get canned.

She got fired.

Can I have my card back?

Look me up when you're not broke.

Hey, bub.

She's not broke.

She's nouveau poor.

Yeah, yeah. Don't you worry about it.
She's going to find a job.

No problem. Does that mean you still
want a pool?

No.

Well, I mean, not right now. Maybe I do.
Mr. Putney, let me see those plans.

Hey, oh, Angela, not for nothing, but
people without jobs don't usually go

building swimming pools. You want to
bet?

No, you just said yourself, I'm going to
get another job right away. Oh, I know

you will. I know you will, just I don't
know when, and I don't think you should

spend 15 grand while you're looking.

Doesn't anybody have any faith in me?

I do.

So do I.

And just to prove it, dear, hey, Len.

Throw in a jacuzzi, huh?

Dad, why are we saving coupons for
denture cream? We don't use that stuff.

Do we?

Hardy har har. One of us might.

No, no, no. I'm trading with old lady
Riley.

For every denture cream I give her, she
gives me two spaghetti sauces.

But you always make your own spaghetti
sauce.

Uh -huh.

But not Miss Goldberg, see? For every
two spaghetti sauces I give her, she

me three oatmeal.

And what do we get for the oatmeal
coupons?

Oatmeal. I was afraid of that.

Ta -da!

Whoa, look at you. Angela, look at you.
You look terrific.

All right.

You must have a big meeting set up
already, huh?

Well, not yet, but if you look
successful, you feel successful, and

way to be successful.

Hey, works for me. Dress for success.

Dad,

if you buy me those new jeans, I'm sure
I could get better grades. Throw in a

sweater, and we're talking straight A's.
Well, well, well.

Then why don't I buy you a whole new
wardrobe? You can graduate early, get a

job, and buy your own clothes.

Very funny. I'll see you later. Bye
-bye. Bye, sweetheart.

Bye.

So, what are we doing with that Rolodex?
Oh, this is not just a Rolodex.

This is an intricate network
representing ten years of my personal

contacts. Who will be the lucky person
to hire Angela Bauer?

Well, let's spin the wheel and find out
who wins, Vanna.

And the winner is Ed Franklin Jr.

of Franklin, Franklin, and Franklin.

I wonder how he got his job.

Harvey,

remember how many times you said you
wished you had somebody like me at the

of your ship?

No, no, no, Harvey.

You are woefully misinformed.

I did not sink a $6 million account for
Wallace and McQuaid.

It was $8 million.

Come on, baby.

Come on, Mama needs a new swimming pool.

Oh, Jack, I wish I had called last week,
too, but last week I had a job.

Look, Jack, you're the best headhunter
in town. There must be something for

somebody with my background.

Copywriter? With my credentials?

I might as well be a secretary.

17 words a minute.

Hello?

Jack?

Jack?

How's it going?

Good prospects.

A lot of leads.

I definitely made some progress.

Nothing, huh?

Zilch.

Presidents' jobs aren't easy to find.
Either are vice presidents, directors,

managers.

You gotta know somebody to be a truck
driver.

You mean you called everybody in the
Rolodex?

Yeah, even my hairdresser.

Well, why would you call her?

She likes me.

Don't worry about this, Angela. Come on,
you're going to find something. The

main thing is not to panic.

I'm not panicking.

Why would I panic?

My reputation is mud?

Because the market is flooded with
qualified people?

And I misspelled education on my resume?

Come on, Angela, we're going to get
through this.

We?

Oh, yeah, we.

We're a family, right? And families
stick together.

Why, Tony, that's the nicest thing I've
heard in a long time.

I'm a nice kind of guy.

You feel better?

always helps.

So does a good shoulder.

I got another one if you need it. No.

I'm so embarrassed.

Don't be.

My nose runs when I cry too.

I'm not the kind of person who does this
sort of thing in front of other people.

Oh, hey.

I'm none of the people. I'm Tony.

I'm lucky.

Hey, look, I know this is a tough time,
you know, so I got an idea.

Don't pay me, at least for a while.

Oh, Tony!

I would never do that!

Well, why not? I mean, it's not that
much money.

It's a lot of money. I mean, it's very
generous.

Don't worry about me, Tony.

I've got a nice reference.

And I've got the savings and docs and
CDs, T -bills, real estate. Oh, great,

great, great. Can I have a raise?

Hi, Mom. Hi, Tony.

Mom, guess what? Grandma took us to Pool
Palace in Pool Kingdom.

Yeah, Pool Heaven was closed.

Jonathan, if you wear that thing when my
friends come over, I'm letting the air

out of your dinosaur.

Hey!

I brought

you something,

too. Oh, Mother Candy.

That's very thoughtful, but I don't want
any.

Angela, when you were depressed as a
little girl, Candy always cheered you

Well, Mother, life isn't that simple
anymore.

Is that a caramel?

Oh, there.

Doesn't that make you feel better?

I don't understand it, mother.

I've told everyone I know. There are no
jobs in advertising.

Well, perhaps you should consider
another field.

You are a very bright and creative
woman.

A lot of things that you're good at.

Name one.

Well,

nothing comes to mind at the moment.

Let's talk about it. I used to be a
personnel counselor.

Mother, I don't need counsel.

That's what they all say. Here, let me
give you this little test, and we'll see

what career you're best suited for.

All right?

Name.

I just wanted to loosen you up a little
bit.

Resistant to authority.

Question two.

Which of the following would you rather
do?

Climb a mountain or eat a hot fudge
sundae?

Climb a mountain.

Very good, dear.

Compulsive liar.

Three.

How many times in the past year have you
had sexual relations?

What does that have to do with getting a
job?

Nothing. I was just curious.

Tony. Hey, Mona, you're just in time.

Oh, my God.

It's New Year's Eve and I don't have a
date? No, no, no.

This is all for Angela.

This is all for Angela. Any minute,
she's going to come through that door

say, I got a job.

She really did just walk through the
door. And she's going to say... Hello.

And what else? What else are you going
to say?

I got a job.

Did I tell you?

I don't want to toot my own horn, but
I'm good.

So? So? Come on, tell us all about it.
Yeah, yeah. What's the name of the

company with the talented new president?

Sterling and Simpkin.

Sterling and Simpkin.

Bigger than Wallace and McQuaid. Much.

But I'm not exactly the president.

Well, create... Executive vice
president, executive vice president,

difference? Copywriter.

Copywriter. Now, I'm not good with these
corporate titles, but that sounds

really bad.

It's head copywriter.

Head copywriter. Well, that sounds
really bad, too.

Let's face it, it stinks.

Angela, this job is way beneath you. Why
would you take it?

Because it's all I could get.

Ah, just the person I wanted to see.
Now, which shade of blue do you want for

the tile? We got Mediterranean blue,
Pacific blue, Caribbean blue, or the

standard Dead Sea blue?

Well, I don't know. They're all so blue.

Can it wait?

Sure, but may I remind you that you have
a large hole in your backyard filled

with men, paid by the hour.

What? Hey, Asa, look. Ah! Just the
person I wanted to see. Which shade of

do you want for the tile?

Well, hey, this is Angela's department.

I checked with that department. It
appears to be closed.

Take it easy here, Lance. You'll make a
decision, right, Angela?

Whatever you want, Tony.

Good choice.

Hey, look, look, we're going to have to
get back to you on this, Lance. I think

we want it to match the drapes. Get out
of here.

Angela, what is going on?

I mean, you can't make a simple
decision. You take a nowhere dead -end

What's happening to you?

I got fired, remember?

Hey, Hazel, that's not the end of the
world. I mean, sometimes these things

out for the best. Look at me. I thought
I'd never find anything better than

playing second base for the Cardinals.
But look at me now. I'm a housekeeper.

Don't you get it? If I hadn't, you know,
gotten injured and signed on here, I'd

have never met you.

Met who?

I don't even know who I am anymore.

Oh, hey, hey, oh, you're Angela Bauer.
And that's somebody, somebody we all

about and love.

Tony, I haven't made a smashing success
in many areas of my life.

There's my personal relationships. Ah,
what's one little marriage?

And I'm not really great at running a
household.

You hired me, didn't you?

But running an advertising agency was
the one thing I knew how to do well.

And now it's gone, and I feel lost.

Well, the Angela Bauer I know, she
wouldn't let that be her excuse.

Excuse? What do you want me to do?

Make myself president?

Start my own agency?

Now you're talking.

Don't be naive.

You don't just start your own agency.

Well, why not?

Well, because you, you, you need
experience.

You got that.

You need capital.

You'll borrow that.

You need clients.

You could steal them.

Here we go.

No peeking, no peeking. You're silly.

And you look ridiculous.

What do you think?

Charming. It's so inviting.

So empty.

This is crazy.

Do you know what it takes to get an
organization like this off the ground?

Yes, but I'm sure you'll tell us again.

Come on, Angela, wait a minute. Use your
imagination.

Come here. Look here, look here.

This is where your office is going to be
here, with your desk and your phone.

And your picture of your mother.

And out here, out here is going to be
your reception area, with the one thing

that every agency needs, a knockout
secretary. Oh, say no more. You have

caught me between jobs.

You would do that? That is so sweet.

No, no, I don't think it would work. I
mean, I would be your employer.

No problem. It'll be fine.

Just don't tell me what to do.

I just don't know. Come on, Angel. Come
on. Look, I'll help. I'll move

furniture. I'll hang drapes. I'll dust.
I'll buff. You won't have the biggest

agency in town, but it'll be the
shiniest. I can see it now.

I can see it now. Here's the plaque that
says Devour Agency.

You like the little plaque?

Maybe not so little.

What do you think?

Hey, check it out in the light.

Hey, look.

Hey, hold this.

Mother, take a memo.

Tell Tony to fix that shade.
