All language subtitles for Reba s06e13 The Kids are Alright

Yellow wire goes through.

Honey, what are you doing?

Being a man, Cheyenne.

The heater's broken, and I'm fixing it.
That's what men do. We fix things.

Is this a butter knife?

Well, I broke the screwdriver trying to
get the pliers out of the garbage

disposal.

Ben, are you sure you should be messing
with that? I mean, it's electricity.

Isn't it all sparkly?

I have a book.

The do -it -yourself guide to home
repair.

That book will teach you how to fix or
build anything. And after I'm done

the heater, I'm building us a koi pond.

Oh, okay, you know what? I bet that's
mom. You better get your apology ready,

Van. I don't know why we have to
apologize. Because you called her

I'm baffled.

I called her Barbara Jean because she
was coming over too much, like Barbara

Jean. And now if I apologize, she's
going to come over again. Too much. It's

madness.

Dan, your little joke hurt her feelings.
It's comedy, Cheyenne. People get hurt.

Hey, Mom.

Come on in.

Come on in?

Isn't that the kind of thing that
Barbara Jean would do?

No, Barbara Jean would stand at the door
pouting and being all sarcastic.

I can't turn it off.

Look, Mom, we are really sorry that we
hurt your feelings. We feel terrible.

Because you realize it's completely
crazy to compare me to Barbara Jean,

Yes, absolutely.

Van?

Yes.

All's forgiven. Oh, honey, I've missed
you so much.

So where's Elizabeth? I want to say hi
to her. She's spending the night over at

her friend Claire's house, so Cheyenne
and I can do some work on the house.

Oh, well, maybe I'll just pop over there
and say hi to her. Yeah, because that's

what Barbara Jean would do.

Come on, people, that's funny.

See how God works.

I think I blew out a filling.

Oh, no. Just a piece of chicken.

Okay. Well, I'm all done here. Let's
fire this puppy up. All right.

Huh?

Huh? Do I know my hot air or what?

Oh, yeah, honey. You are good. You
should fix the toilet next.

No, I can't. The wrench is on the roof
of the garage.

Well, a rat took my chips. Oh, you know
what? You take care of home repair,

then.

You know, honey, I'm really glad we
apologized to Mom. The only reason she

over here all the time is because she
misses us. Oh, she doesn't miss us. She

doesn't trust us.

What are you talking about?

Cheyenne, she still thinks of us as
those irresponsible 17 -year -old kids

she has to keep an eye on or we'll have
a baby.

We are having a baby. Yeah, that's
another thing we men do.

Oh, gosh.

Your mom just doesn't...

See us as the adults we've become. We're
grown -ups, Cheyenne.

We're homeowners.

I think we can take care of ourselves.

Yeah, yeah. I guess she's a little
overprotective. I mean, we know what

doing. Yeah.

Man.

That's a heater you've got. It's really
kicking out some heat.

Yeah, well, I turn it on high to get...

Barbara Jean wants more than anything
else in the whole wide world?

A panda bear that rides bicycle.

Okay, yeah. But she also wants to go to
the Hot Air Balloon Festival in New

Mexico, and I made reservations for us
to go this spring.

Really? Well, let me ask you a question.
Won't y 'all be divorced by then?

Not if I can help it. That's why I'm
trying to find things that make her

That's why I booked this trip.

Okay, question number two.

Weren't you the one that always wanted
to go on the hot air balloons? And

and Barbara Jean always called them the
hot air puke baskets?

I just don't know what else to do.

Oh, I know.

And I'm just saying this to try to
protect you.

You may have to face reality. It may be
over.

You know, spending so much time alone
has made me realize how much she's a

of me. How dull and empty the world is
without her.

Right now, there's a hole where my heart
should be.

Oh, gag.

What? I thought that was very moving.
Yeah, moving my lunch up.

Brock, marriage is not a poorly written
greeting card. Everybody knows you two

love each other, but that's not the
reason why you're not together. Look, I

it takes more than love to make a
marriage work, but I'm not the one who

out and got a new career and a new life.

Oh, so you want her to go back being
just your wife.

Well, I've been just your wife, and it
ain't that great.

You know what? Forget about it. Okay,
I'm sorry.

But you come in here telling me this
cornball speech, and you expect me to

it seriously.

Okay, maybe it was dumb, and maybe it
didn't sound real, but I feel... Look,

just trying to figure out how... I miss
my wife.

Mom, Dad, check it out. Hey, buddy,
listen, could you give us a minute right

now? We're trying to have an adult
conversation, okay? Fine. I missed the

at Van and Cheyenne's house.

The what?

Cheyenne, Van, let me in. It's me.

And me. It's us.

Hey there, guys. How's everything?

Was there a fire? A what?

But there was a fire, a little tiny,
teeny fire. But you know what? It was

practically a spark.

Thanks for stopping by. Bye.

Oh,

my God. Look at that.

God, it stinks in here. I kind of like
it. It reminds me of my grandpa. He's a

pyromaniac.

Where's Shine and Elizabeth?

Elizabeth's over at Claire's and Shine's
upstairs.

Guys, calm down.

Everything's fine.

Buddy, what the heck happened?

What's with all these questions? When am
I on trial?

Wait a minute. Weren't you working on
something over here earlier?

Working on something?

Yeah. I don't know.

Oh, no, Van.

You caused the fire. Oh, yeah.

Blame it on me. I caused the fire.

Yes.

I caused the fire. We're responsible.

Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no. Not we. You.

You were responsible. He tried to fix
the heater with a butter knife and a

Just calm down. It's not that big of a
deal. See, your mom agrees with me.

Oh, zip it, Sparky. All right,
everybody.

Everybody just take it easy. Now, look,
this is a very stressful situation.

You don't want to say something now that
you might regret later. You know what?

I should have never married you or
bought a house with you.

Like that.

You know what, Mom? I think we're going
to need to stay at your house for a

couple of days. Is that okay?

Yeah, that's okay. Hope you got fire
insurance.

I'm going to go grab a few things.

Well, make sure to grab my lighter. Oh,
him!

Hey!

I'm just trying to... I'm just trying to
make a little joke.

I've been breathing smoke all day. I'm
not... I'm very emotional.

What happened? Where's the fire?

I put the fire out. Everything's okay
and everybody's safe.

Gosh, thank goodness.

Oh, my Lord.

Uh,

Barbara Jean, there's something I'd like
to say to you. Yeah, there's something

I want to say to you, too.

Well, both of you.

I got a new job offer today.

What?

considering moving to Arkansas?

Well, for a little while.

And then the next goal is a major market
city. And ultimately, how do the words,

the CBS Evening News with stormy clear
weather sound?

Like the end of CBS?

You know what?

I should start practicing interviewing
distraught victims. I'm going to go find

Van.

You okay over there?

Oh, yeah, yeah, I'm fine.

It's really good for her, huh? Things
are really starting to fall her way.

You don't have to pretend you're happy
for her.

Oh, I'm not pretending, Reba. You know
what? You were right before. I always

thought that the same things made us
happy, but this really makes her happy,

I want it for her.

Well, then go tell her that.

Tell her that you've changed. You got to
fight for her. I'm not going to do

that. I think I've done enough damage
already.

I want Barbara Jean to be happy, even if
it means that I won't be.

Now, if you'll excuse me, Reba, this
smoke is really starting to bother my

Because the people want to know, Van.
That's why.

I can't get an interview and he acts
like the victim.

Barb Jean, I think we need to talk about
this Little Rock thing.

Oh, I know.

Isn't it exciting?

Well, to be honest with you, I think
it's a little selfish.

Selfish?

For the first time, I start thinking
about myself and what would make me

and suddenly, I'm selfish.

I believe that's the definition of
selfish.

Well, fine.

Then you know what? I'm selfish.

Margarine, isn't that the very thing
that used to bug you so much about

But I think he's changed. He really
wants to make this work.

Reba, Brock has not changed.

He just wants the past where everything
revolves around him. And you want the

future. Yes. Where everything revolves
around you. Yes. Don't you see what's

happening here?

You're becoming Brock, Brock's becoming
me, and I'm becoming you.

You know what, Reba, I really appreciate
you trying to help, but you know what,

this isn't your problem. I believe that
every marriage that can be saved should

be saved.

Mine couldn't, but yours still has a
chance.

You know, I gotta go.

If I'm gonna go to Little Rock, I gotta
tell the station here so they can find

somebody else to do the weather.

I'm becoming Barbara Jean.

Why couldn't I just be Dolly Parton?

Sage, thanks again for letting us stay
here. Man, I gotta do some laundry.

My shirt still smells like smoke.

The washer's broken.

Do you have your magic butter knife?

Once again, you've won an argument with
your

wit.

I'm not laughing at you.

Did you ask her? No, I didn't ask her.
You asked me.

Asked me what?

We just need to stay here for the rest
of our lives.

What? Yeah, we can't make it on our own.
I have failed in providing a safe

shelter for my family.

I am a moron and a jerk.

I am a merc.

Guys, these things happen. It was an
accident.

Mom, we have lived in our new house for
three days.

And we've already set it on fire.

So what do you say, Mrs. H?

No. What?

N -O. What does that even mean?

It means that you can only stay here
until your house is fixed.

Well, I don't understand why I can't
stay.

I mean, I've lived here my whole life,
and all of a sudden I'm a person non

-grateful?

Listen to me.

You kids messed up, and you're going to
mess up again.

But the most important thing is how you
respond to your mistakes, and you did

great. You got the fire out, and
everybody was safe.

I guess.

Van did jump into action after he
stopped screaming.

Well, I stopped screaming because you
slapped me.

See, the two of you can get through
whatever mess you guys get yourselves

as long as you stick together.

You're a loving couple.

Yeah. You're a loveful.

You're going back?

I thought you said it was too smoky.
Yeah, well, the fire damage wasn't that

bad. I think we were just freaking out
about being on our own. But you fixed

that, Mrs. H. You fixed everything. You
and your tough love.

Well, this is it.

So soon.

You know, I knew you guys were going to
move back, but I'm still really not

ready for this.

Oh, Mom, maybe technically we moved out
two days ago. I know, but deep down in

my heart, I knew you kids would come
running back when you hit that first

in the road.

Now it feels like you're moving out for
real.

We are.

No more words.

Cheyenne, hug your mother.

Oh, heck, give me some of that.

Hey, what's with the love fest?

She kicked us out. We're all very sad
and happy. We're dappy.

Have any news from Barbara Jean?

No, not a thing.

Her broadcast is about to start. She
said if she's going to take that job,

there'd be a new girl doing the weather.
So I guess that'll give me my answer.

And now it's time for the weather. But
first, I'd like to congratulate Stormy

Clearweather on her new job.

She will be missed behind the weather
desk. And now for our new weather girl,

Bill from accounting.

Well,

Guess I got my answer.

Sorry, Brock.

Yeah. Wow.

Life without Barbara Jean.

What is this family going to do without
some big goofball popping in all the

time?

Hey, guys.

Well, we just watched the broadcast.

I guess you made your decision.

Yes. Yes, I have.

I can't believe I'm going to say this,
but after all you guys have been

and how about you man to each other?

believe you're going to leave.

Well, I'm just not going to stand here
and let my best friend just ruin the

of her life.

Best friend?

Best friend?

Yes, best friend.

I'm proud to say that Barbara Jean is my
best friend.

It's more of a comment on my sad life
more than anything.

Well, aren't you going to scream or hug
me or do something to make me regret

this?

long to hear something and then when you
finally do, you realize it's just no

big deal, you know.

What?

I'm kidding.

That's what best friends do. They kid.

Come here, you. We're best friends. Best
friends, best friends, best friends,

best friends, best friends, best
friends.

Barbara Jean, there's something I'd like
to say to you.

If moving to Little Rock would make you
happy, then...

That's what you should do.

I want you to be happy.

I also want you to know that I love you
more than anything else in the world,

and I still want to be your husband.

Oh, my goodness.

If you'll have me, I will follow you to
Little Rock or Budapest or any place

else you want to go.

You mean that?

I've never been more serious in my life.

I still want to be married to you
because...

Without you, there's a hole where my
heart should be.

Oh my gosh, Brock, that is the most
beautiful thing I have ever heard.

Gosh.

You know, anyway, I'm not going to
Little Rock.

What? I used my leverage with the
station and they offered me the hard

here. I am going to be their new woman
on the street and...

I already have a title for my segment.

Babs Jansen.

Streetwalker.

So you're not going?

Oh, Reba, I couldn't. I couldn't leave
Brock.

You know, every marriage that can be
saved should be.

I can't believe I'm going to say this
either, but I'm happy for you two.

I'm happy for you two.

I'm just so happy that all our lives
have worked out.

Except for you.

You're all alone. Cheyenne, she's all
alone.

No, I'm not.

No, I'm not. Six years ago, I thought I
was cursed.

Turns out that I'm blessed.

Blessed to be in the middle of the
craziest, most dysfunctional, wonderful

I could imagine.

And I love all of you.

I love you. I love you, too.

Oh, my God.

This is so beautiful.

Life's rich pageant.

Let's take a picture of this so we can
have this moment forever.

That's a great idea, and I'll pull it
together.

Pull it together. Come on.

Hey, kids, come on in here. We're going
to take a picture.

Everyone smile.

Okay, he did. If I could stand next to
Reba, you know, best friends.

Hey, do you guys hear?

Best friends.

Can you believe it, Reba?

Six years ago, this family was falling
apart.

And then I came in and I just put
everything back together.

Barbara Jean, that's not exactly the way
I'd put it. Hang on, Brock.

Barbara Jean's right.

We got through it all.

Because we're survivors.
