All language subtitles for Sanford & Son s04e11 Home Sweet Home

Worst damn weekend I've spent my whole
hard -luck life.

Well, let's just not discuss it anymore.
I should have known better than to take

somebody like you camping anyway.

Yeah, you should have.

That's right, you should have.

because I think the great outdoors
should be locked up inside.

Yeah, Papa, she was the one that agreed
to go.

Yeah, but I thought it'd be like one of
them Disney movies with them cute little

animals. Not a bunch of flies and gnats
and bats and bugs and slugs and snakes

and that big ugly thing that kept
saying, breathe deep, Papa, smell that

Hey, it's Julio.

Two days in this... In the woods with
insects, and here come a Spanish flea.

Hey, man, what's happening?

I'll be waiting two days for you guys to
get home.

I got some exciting news to tell you,
man.

You going to Puerto Rico forever?

No, man, I'm not going to Puerto Rico,
but I might be moving.

Hey, man, I'm sorry to hear that, Julio.
Oh, man, don't be sorry.

No, you're going too. In fact, everybody
on the whole block is leaving.

Don't tell me that sewer main backed up
again.

No, no, man. It's nothing like that.
It's good news. Let me splain.

Splain.

This is why he goes splain.

Go ahead and splain, Julio. Right, man.

You see, the last couple of days, man,
some Japanese people have been coming

around talking to every property owner
on the block.

Japanese? Here? Right, man. They want to
build a...

Hey, and everything I've ever heard
about the Japanese people says that

loaded with money.

Right. I'm not interested.

Hey, what do you mean you're not
interested?

I'm not interested.

We sell our housing, and where are we
going to live? Tokyo?

And look, Pop, Japanese people have a
lot of money, man, and if we could get,

say, $15 ,000 from them, we could move
anywhere.

You like to move so much? Watch me move.
I'm moving upstairs to bed.

Good night. Good night.

Okay, good night, Mr. Sanford. Have a
good night's sleep. But just remember,

Japanese are going to be here first
thing in the morning.

I know that.

How? They always attack at dawn.

Do you see any seaweed in the living
room?

Hey, what you doing?

See, when the Japanese come, I'm
inviting them for tea and fortune

And I'm putting in my own fortune.

Oh, that's genius, Pop. It is.

Now, listen to this one here.

You will meet a tall, dark, handsome
stranger.

Give him what he wants.

Hey, wait a minute. It's not going to
work, Pop.

It'll work. Here's the one I know will
work. Look, the tea you just drank is

poison.

So for $50 ,000, you can have this house
and an antidote.

Please, Mr.

Sanford, don't do anything like that.
You're going to ruin it for all of us,

man. How can I ruin it for all of us?
Because the Japanese put a stipulation

the contract that says that every
property owner has to sell or the deal

That's right, man. If we don't sell,
nobody gets any money.

I don't like it.

Well, it's not too late, man. They're
paying a whole lot of money.

And I'll tell you, for the $12 ,000 I'm
going to get, I'm going to do a lot of

traveling.

Wait a minute.

$12 ,000?

Right, but we're not supposed to talk
about it. You hear that, Lamont?

If he can get $12 ,000 for that death
trap he's living over there, the other

thing is to charge my house.

That's not a nice thing to say about my
house, man. Yeah, me neither, Barbara.

Listen, why don't you go on and leave
before the Japanese might make a mistake

and catch you here?

Okay, Mrs. Ambrose, I'll tell you one
thing. Now, as soon as you sign, we're

going to get our money. So, you know,
we're in the same boat.

This is the captain speaking.

Get your poop off my deck.

Hey,

you know, I think you're right, Pop. If
they give Julio $12 ,000 for his place,

man, we can get about $14 ,000 or $15
,000 for ours.

Hey, it's almost 12 o 'clock and they're
not here yet. Julio said they was going

to be here this morning, man. This is
not nowhere they'd be here. It's just an

old trick. as Japanese play. See? They
say one thing and do another.

See, that's what I tell you.

I can tell you exactly what that guy's
gonna look like. You can, huh? Yeah,

he'll be short with big thick dashes on
and be smiling with a big old funny

-looking mustache.

You just watch and see. He'll have on a
pretty dress and some high -heeled

shoes.

Yeah,

both of them.

All right, I'm Lamar Sanford.

How do you do? I'm Helen Funai, and I
represent the Funai Real Estate Company.

Oh, well, I'm Fred Sanford, and I'm
president of Sanford's Junkyard.

Won't you please come in? Thank you.
Yes, come right in. Sit down over here.

Relax.

Do you care for a snack or anything like
that?

I think I got some rice in the cupboard.

No, thank you.

If you don't mind, I'd like to get right
down to business.

I'm sure you're aware by now that my
company has been buying a property on

block. Oh, really?

Yes, and since you are the last party to
come to terms, you can understand our

desire to quickly conclude negotiations.

Yes, we understand.

Yes, does he mean everybody else has
signed up but us with the last one left?

That is correct.

Naturally, we have carefully appraised
your property. However, we also realize

that there is a certain amount of
sentimental value involved.

It's sentimental baggage.

Yes, so I think you'll agree that we
have been quite fair in our offer.

$20 ,000.

We feel that's reasonable, don't you?

Ah, yes, that's very reasonable.

Perhaps, perhaps we should sign, Father.
I think I have a pen in the drawer.

Yes,

I seem to have found one.

Ah, here you go, Doe.

Deed, uh, dad, uh, you see, the dad's in
my deed's name. Uh, the deed's in my

dad's name.

Just sign it there.

Something wrong, Mr. Sanders.

You know, just selling this place just
breaks my heart.

And, you know, sentimental value and
all.

Sentimental value? Since when did you
ever have any...

Let me explain to you. See, $20 ,000 is
all right, but it just don't seem enough

to part with... with all this.

All right, Mr. Stanford.

I'll come back a little later this
afternoon.

Sayonara. Yeah, and Frank Sinatra to
you.

Yeah, but I'm fixing to say hello to a
whole lot more.

More? Yeah.

You see, didn't you hear I said that we
was the last one to sign up? Now, if

they want all this land, they gotta wait
till we sell.

Hey, look, Pop, I'm warning you, man.
Japanese people are very shrewd

businessmen.

Me too, but son, listen.

We got them by the teriyaki.

Pop, what about our neighbors, man? All
our neighbors... neighbors are depending

on us to close the deal.

Let them get their own dairy out of
here.

This is the opportunity of a lifetime,
man, and you're throwing it out the

window because you're being greedy.

Son, haven't you learned anything at all
being my son?

Who do you think I'm doing this for?

Yourself.

Yeah, you've learned something.

Hey, man, it's almost 5 o 'clock, and
she hasn't come back yet.

Well, she'll be here. I ain't worried.
You're not worried, huh? That's right.

I've been looking in real estate taxes.
Come over here a minute.

Look at this.

A two -bedroom apartment.

Decorated furnished.

Swimming pool, tennis court.

Pop, those apartments are for singles
only.

Well, who do you think we are, Ozzie and
Harriet?

That's what I did.

Not only 30, we can get 35 ,000.

Uh, hello, Miss Funai. Uh, please come
in. Hello, thank you. I'll be brief.

Oh, Mr. Sanford.

My associates and I have decided that in
consideration of your deep feelings

towards your home, we will increase our
offer to 22 ,500.

22 ,500.

What's the nickel for?

It's 22 ,500. $500, Pop.

Oh, that's all right, man. I'm not
interested. Could you come back tomorrow

afternoon? Are you crazy?

Well, I don't know, Mr. Sanford. We are
working on a timetable now.

Excuse me. May I make a business call?
Oh, yeah. Just take the phone into the

kitchen. Thank you.

I hope she ain't calling Japan.

If she is... I'll just tack it on to the
price of the house. Hey, Pop, wait a

minute, man. Do you realize what she's
offering us, man?

$22 ,500. Do you know what we can get
with that?

Yeah, $25 ,000. And if we can get $25
,000, we can get $30 ,000. Why not $35

,000?

Listen, son, now let's be realistic.

Now, you know this yourself.

This house is not worth $35 ,000.

Unless we throw in the carpets and the
drapers.

Chancellor, I am not authorized to make
you any further offers.

However, my father, the president of our
company, would consider it an honor if

you both would have dinner with us this
evening.

Would he consider it an honor picking up
the check?

My father's only kidding.

We'd love to stop with you this evening.
What time should we be there?

How about eight? Eight is perfect.

And here is the address to our house.
Okay, thank you very much. Bye -bye.

bye -bye.

Wait a minute. What did you do that for?

I ain't going to no strange people's
house to sit around with a bunch of

foreigners. Ain't nothing you can say to
make me change my mind. A team of wild

horses is going to get me to change my
mind. Okay.

You'll blow the 22 -5.

Uh, saddle up the truck.

me with Beverly Hills.

And the hills are alive.

Gentlemen, this is my cousin, Saburo. He
and my great -grandfather are visiting

us from the mother country.

Must be the lullaby.

Let's get out of here.

Relax? How can I relax? Last time I saw
something this big, Toys was having

trouble trying to kill it.

What did he say?

Saburo said, it is a great honor to have
such distinguished guests in our home.

Hey, did you hear that, Pop? We're
distinguished guests.

What was that?

Saburo suggests that in keeping with our
customs, will you please remove your

jackets and shoes?

think that Zaburro might be.

This is a really nice house you have
here, Mr. Koonite. So much history and

everything. Hey, this is a samurai
sword, isn't it? I bet there's a lot of

history behind that.

My great -great -uncle used that sword
to kill himself.

Commit harakiri over a hundred years
ago.

Amazing. What's so amazing about killing
yourself?

My uncle Alfonso in St. Louis killed
himself.

You don't see me hanging wine bottles
all around the wall, do you?

Ladies and gentlemen. Ah, gentlemen,
gentlemen.

It's an honor to meet you. And this is
my noble grandfather.

Hello, noble.

He is the founder of our company.

What's he looking for now?

Get up now, Pop.

Shall we sit down?

Yeah, let's sit down. Where the chair is
at?

and seaweed.

And this is abalone dipped in soy sauce.

And this is sashimi.

Raw fish.

It's got no grits and gravy.

Hey, Pop, why don't you try some of the
sashimi?

No, you go ahead and try that. I'll just
eat a few of these grapes.

Mmm.

It's all right.

A little slippery.

Mr. Sanford, very good. You like the
fish eyes.

Mr.

Sanford, I hope we did not offend you by
serving our traditional food. Oh, no,

no offense.

Would you care for some sake?

Hey, Pop, you're gonna like this, man.
This is sake. See, that's rice wine.

Yeah, now you're getting out of my alley
with that wine.

like to propose a toast to a successful
and mutually beneficial business

agreement.

You'll get used to it, Mr. Sanford.

And now to business.

I have discussed your situation with my
honorable grandfather, and he was quite

impressed with your sentimental
attachment to your home.

He is?

Yes. we have decided in just
compensation for your emotional loss,

top price of $27 ,000.

$27 ,000.

Yeah, that's top price, but $30 ,000
would be tip -top. I'll tip -top you.

You're going to sign that paper this
time, Pop, and that's all there is to

I'll sign it.

to happen when I bow.

Oh, you have a bad back, Mr. Sanford?
Oh, yeah, and it goes all the way down

my hand, and I can't move it. Ah, just a
moment. I have just the solution.

Ancient technique frequently used in
Japan.

We'll have you signing the paper in no
time.

What you have to run out like that for?
What do you expect me to do when that

big guy comes to me with two needles?

I can think of but two things.

Run and fast.

Well, you can just rest assured that
that's the last time we're going to see

those people.

Oh, you'll see them again.

See, they need this property.

And I bet you we can still get $30 ,000
out of this place.

Don't you understand, Pop? We're not
getting nothing, man. Running out on

people like that was the supreme insult.

Well, I'll tell you what. Just to show
you I ain't got no hard feelings, I'll

call them up and tell them I'll take
their last offer.

Well, maybe calling would help.

Yeah. See, calling is the next best
thing to be in there.

See, Dan, what'd I take?

$35 ,000, not $30 ,000.

Miss Funai, how are you? I would like to
apologize for my father's behavior. Oh,

that's all right. We understand.

Yes. Won't you please come to our humble
home and partake of some sofa?

grandfather has much he wants to say to
you.

Exactly how much? What do

you think?

He said never in his lifetime has he met
a man as great as you.

Tell him I agree with every word.

What was that?

He wants you to know that he thinks you
are a dedicated home -loving man, and he

respects your great love for your home.

He wouldn't dare ask you to leave it.

No, no, ask me.

Ask me. I mean, tell him.

Ask me to go. That's the $30 ,000
question.

Gentlemen, he has made his decision.

Rather than uproot you from your
ancestral lodgings, he has decided to

brewery somewhere else.

Uproot me, man.

Uproot.

Hey, look here. All my people are buried
in St. Louis. Get to uprooting.

Hey, wait a minute.

What do I offer you?

Mr. Sanford, as a gesture of respect and
friendship, my great -grandfather

offers you this seashell.

Seashell? What is this?

Oh, I know it's $30 ,000 in here
somewhere, isn't it?

This is the fortune seashell cookie.
Goodbye, gentlemen.

Wait a minute.

Wait a minute.

Uproot me. I'll take less money.

I'll take $20, $15, and I'll throw in
Lamarck. He'll be your gardener.

Give me something.

What

am I

going to do with this?

It's a seashell pop hold it up to your
right ear and push it through to your

left

a handkerchief up to the phone? I didn't
want to get any germs on my face.

Well, have any of the neighbors called
to complain about you blowing the deal?

No, not one.

Well, that's surprising. I would have
thought that they would have been over

here jumping down your throat by now.

Yeah, I would have thought that, too.
Yeah, well, I'm going upstairs to wash

and then I'm going to split over to
Madeline's.

Oh, that's good, John.

Hello, hello?

Is this Honorable Julio?

Julio. Yes, this is Honorable
Representative of Real Estate, Mr.

Pony. Pony? Yes.

Yes, calling Honorable to tell you we
are not going to buy any

property in your block for the brewery.
And it's not fledgling.

No, it's not flat, it's flow.
