All language subtitles for Growing Pains s06e13 The World According to Chrissy

Channel 19. Five more minutes, Chrissy,
then bedtime.

Oh, wait.

First I'm going inside the lines. I've
got to go to bed.

Chrissy, a tip. Mom's a sucker for cute.

Trust me, it never fails.

Take this to your room and get started
on your homework.

Gadzooks, Mom.

I can't move. You are one beautiful
woman.

Hustle, mister.

And you got Zeus's wrong.

Mom, quick, I'm late for a date and I
don't have a clean shirt. Oh, Mike,

been over this more times than I care to
remember. You do your own laundry.

Mom, are you getting younger?

Younger? I mean, all I can say is holy
moly.

Take your dad's shirt.

Oh, always a good one. Why not? Oh, yes.

Thank you, Mom.

Holy moly was a nice touch. Oh, thanks.

You know,

like the kind of guy who would enjoy a
good bedtime story.

How about Mr.

Mouse Finds a Home?

Oh, well, I'm sorry, Chrissy, but Mr.

Mike found a blonde.

Hey, listen, where's Carol? I mean,
maybe she can read you a story.

She's out on a date.

No, really, where is she?

It's true.

Oh, well, finally proof that Bigfoot
lives.

He does?

Will you take me to meet him? No, no,
no, Chrissy, I'm kidding. It was just a

joke.

Long book, Mike.

And the print's pretty big.

I'm sorry, Christy, but you can't keep a
blonde waiting.

You invited her over.

Most women love Mr.

Mouse. Sorry, Christy, but I can't. I
gotta go. See ya.

six -foot mouse before.

What do you mean come to Jersey?

Oh!

Show me that smile.

Show me that smile.

Don't waste the night.

full time tonight.

Carol, you are the first girl I've met
who doesn't mind going out in a garbage

truck.

Is this a garbage truck?

You want to pull the lever again?

No, it's too noisy.

Would you like to come in for some
coffee?

Sure.

I don't want coffee.

Neither do I.

having a picnic?

Me and my friend.

Uh, what's your name?

Ike.

Who's Ike? Where is this kid?

What? He almost stepped on his tail.

Tail? Yeah, Ike's the mouse.

Little babe's bonkers.

One more crack like that, he'll bite you
on the neck.

Norman, just ignore her. She's just a
little... Beer?

What is beer doing out here?

makes the cheese go down smooth.

Chrissy, I don't want to hear any more
nonsense about this invisible mouse.

You don't see him? No. He's staring at
you.

Boys, he's staring at you.

You know, Carol, maybe we should call
tonight.

Will I see you again?

Tuesdays and Thursdays. Be on the curve.

Uh -huh.

I said not to worry. He'd like to take a
baby out like you sometimes.

letting an imaginary mouse have a beer.
Good night. What?

Carol, come back.

Say what you said again?

Chrissy was outside letting an imaginary
mouse have a beer.

So I thought you said... Don't worry.

I poured the beer out and put Chrissy to
bed.

So you handled it? Yeah.

And you're welcome.

Carol, if you handle it, why are you
waking us up?

Well, she ruined my date, so I wanted to
ruin your evening.

That's another thing, by the way, about
this date.

usually get to meet the guy first?

Well, you have.

Every Tuesday and Thursday, on the curb.

Are you dating our garbage man?

Jason, Norman isn't just a garbage man.
He's a professional bodybuilder who

likes poetry, quiet walks, women who
listen, and shellfish.

What's going on around here while I'm at
work?

Dad, forget my date. Your younger
daughter is hallucinating.

you talking about?

Don't you think hallucinate's a bit
strong?

I don't think so.

After her mouse drove Norman away, he
was checking me out.

Whose imagination are we dealing with
here?

Bud Collier.

Excuse me? That was my imaginary friend.

I'd call your member, big game show
host, all the big shows of the 50s to

the truth, beat the clock. Jason, I know
who he was.

Yeah, when I was Christy's age, I'd
pretend he'd come over to visit.

Used to guess my occupation.

Got it right every time.

Good night, sweetheart.

Well? Well, what?

Well, who is your imaginary friend? Oh,
Jason, it's late.

Well, come on, Maggie. We've been
married all these years. You've never

who your imaginary friend is, and I know
everything about you, including that

mole on your inner right thigh.

I don't have a mole on my inner right
thigh.

Oh, okay.

Jason! I'm just kidding, Maggie. Come
on.

Anything to be ashamed of, having an
imaginary friend.

Studies show that almost all creative
people have had one. Well, I didn't.

Maybe a friend is too strong a word.
Maybe it's just an imaginary person that

you talk to. No.

A plant? No. Maybe an animal. Have you
ever had an ant farm, Mary?

Jason, just save it. I fail to see how
talking to a game show host makes one

creative. Oh, well, come on to the
covers, and I'll show you what you want.

I prefer to see what's behind door
number two.

Hey bud, where were we when we saw that
mole?

all the tea?

No, after you.

Hi, sweetheart. How are you doing this
morning?

I'm great.

What would you like for breakfast,
Chrissy?

Oatmeal, egg, toast, pancakes, waffles,
bread. Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Is that Chrissy or Ben?

I think it's all for me.

Who are you talking to? What?

You almost smushed him.

I almost smushed him.

Sorry about that, Ike. Shall we sit
there?

Oh, I get it. This is Ike. Hey, Ike. How
you doing?

Maggie, say hello to Ike.

Oh, how do you do, Ike? I'm not very
comfortable with this.

Ike says, holy moly, you look so young.

Oh, well, a woman never gets tired of
hearing that from a rodent.

Oh, Ike, you like my blouse?

Well, I think it's... Brings out the
highlights in my hair. Thank you. You

very nice mouth.

Mom. Huh?

Went to the bathroom.

Oh, the bathroom.

Did you flush the toilet?

Yes. Stop asking me that.

Ike's chair.

Ike? He's here for breakfast.

Not now, he's in the bathroom.

Okay, honey, I'll call you when your
breakfast... I'll call you when Ike when

your breakfast is ready.

Are you really going to cook him
breakfast?

Of course not. He's imaginary.

Well, I just didn't know how far you'd
go to humor the little nut bar.

Did you know your daughter's in the
driveway talking to herself?

No, she's talking to her imaginary
friend.

Imaginary friend?

Yeah, like you and Pirate Sam.

Pirate Sam wasn't real?

He was to you, and then you outgrew him,
Ben.

He told me he had to ship out.

I gotta go lay down.

Jason, Pissy is doing an awful lot of
talking out there.

Okay, bud, what are we gonna do about
the wife?

Okay, okay, I know I've got nothing to
worry about.

Well, if anybody needs me, I'll be
sitting on the curb with trash.

Maggie, Chrissy knows the difference
between real and pretend. If she didn't,

then we'd have to worry.

Do we have any imported beer?

For Ike?

Yeah. Forget it.

Sorry, Ike. They said something healthy
was better for you.

They're worried about my health, yet
they're setting traps all over the

don't get it.

Salute.

Well, I'm off. Okay, honey, have a good
day. Go forth and cure. Are you all

right? It was a joke.

I was referring to Chrissy and, you
know, Ike.

Oh, honey, you reminded me we've been
through all this before. There's

absolutely nothing to worry about.

Bye -bye, honey. Have a nice day.

I will, dear.

Okay, Chrissy, time for school.

Oh, no, you're leaving me?

Mom, Ike's not going to have anyone to
play with.

He won't.

Well, um, maybe, um... Well, maybe Ike
would like to come with you.

Ike, do you want to go to school with
me? Oh, yes!

We'd love to go.

Wonderful.

See, I can handle this.

And my other children turned out
perfectly normal.

You just take my trash and leave?

I feel so used.

Oh, what a nice neighborhood.

We like it.

We like what, honey?

What, is he deaf?

Sometimes.

Sometimes what? Tell her to forget it.

Forget it, Mom.

Okay.

Want to sing a song, Ike? Yeah, you
pick.

What's a good song?

How about Hickory Dickory Dock?

Look, I refuse to sing a song about a
wee little mouse who's afraid of a

tick -tock.

Next.

How about The Farmer in the Dell?

What was wrong with Hickory Dickory
Dock?

Okay, and when we get to the part about
the rat takes the cheese, in honor of

the brothers, I'd like to make it a
mouth.

You got it.

And the farmer in the delt. A little
louder. The farmer in the delt. How are

dairy of the farmer in the delt?

Can I join you guys?

Sure. The mouse takes the cheese. The
rat takes the cheese.

Hi -ho, the dairy of the rat takes the
cheese.

Am I doing it wrong?

shared with you how he felt about rats.

You know, she hates me. This happens to
me all the time. It's tough being a

rodent American.

Sweetheart, do you know the difference
between really real and make -believe?

Of course I do.

Make -believe is Batman.

Right.

Maggie, is everything all right?

Of course.

I mean, what do you ask?

Well, just from the way you were looking
at Chrissy. No, there's nothing wrong

with Chrissy. She is perfectly normal.

I know.

I mean, she is normal, right?

I mean, not that I need to hear that
from you. I mean, I can see that she's

normal. You're a good parent. You're
just a teacher. No, no, no.

Would you like to come to the share
circle and discuss these things?

Oh, no, thanks, Sally. I really have to
be going.

I'm here. Has Chrissy been doing
anything or talking about anything, uh,

outside?

Let me think.

Well, she did trade her peanut butter
sandwich for a cheese sandwich the other

day.

Is something worrying you?

What's taking you to Fountain Town?

Oh, no, I... Nothing. I have... I have
nothing to worry about.

No mention, say, of a six -foot mouse
named Ike?

No.

But she has been talking about a six
-foot mouse?

No.

Oh, well.

See you later today, then.

Sally, do you think having an imaginary
friend is harmful?

Well, that depends.

Who's your imaginary friend?

Not me.

Chrissy. She's got an imaginary friend.
That's wonderful.

It is? Well, sure, it's a great sign of
creativity.

I've heard.

And it can sometimes fill a need in
their life that they're too young to

articulate. What's my mom so upset
about? Do any of you guys know?

But her problem is she traveled by her
yoke alone.

Maybe she isn't getting enough
attention.

Maybe somebody's ignoring her.

Have you got an Ike in the family?

No, we've got a Ben and we've got a
Carol and we've got a Mike.

What'd you say?

Nothing.

I think you're going to like this.

She's getting weird.

I like it.

Mike, thanks again for staying home to
watch Christmas. Oh, hey, thank you for

paying me in advance.

And if you and Chrissy are having fun
together tonight, she can stay up a

later. You know, 8, 9, 10, midnight.

Whatever. Why isn't Carol babysitting?
She's got another date with the garbage

man. She does?

Yeah. Don't be surprised, Benny. Those
guys take out trash for a living.

He is fun to watch.

The best.

Lucy, I'm home.

Okay, Mike, you keep an eye on Christy.
Okay, Mom, sure will. And Ben, go away.

Whoa, don't you look nice. What's the
occasion?

Well, I am taking you out to dinner.

So let's go, let's go, let's go. What's
the occasion?

Do we have to stand here and play 20
questions? Can't we just go out and

celebrate the joy of loving each other?
Okay.

Now wipe that stupid look off your face
and let's move it. Hello, I had a few

things, just odds and ends that I
tracked down at the office today, you

when I had some spare time.

Just some research about imaginary
friends. You might find it kind of

reassuring.

Great.

What are you doing?

Oh, you're right, you're right. We can
use the bat.

For scratch paper.

No, baby, come on. I was trying to ease
your mind, and I come home to discover

you're not worried at all. What's the
matter with you?

Honey, would you feel better if I got
all weepy?

No, that's not what I'm after.

I don't want you all weak and needy. Oh,
sweetheart, I can't do anything right

today. I made a fool out of myself with
Chrissy's teacher, and all I want to do

is take you to dinner.

Honey, we can go to dinner.

Really?

Yes. Oh, good, let's go.

You can take a look at these. It
deserves them.

Oh, whoa, whoa, Chris, I can hear you
all the way downstairs. What are you

doing? It was Ike's idea.

Oh, yeah, Mom told me about Ike. Uh -oh.
Now, listen, now, you better tell Ike

that if he doesn't want to get in
trouble, that... Get him. I'll tell him

myself. Where is he?

Right over there.

Okay. Hey, Ike. Yeah?

Don't jump on the bed.

There. I hope I wasn't too rough on him.
He had it coming.

Mike, you want to play with us?

Yeah. Yeah, sure. What are you guys
playing?

What do you want to play?

Uh, I kind of like Tea Party.

Tea Party? Sure.

Sounds good to me.

Hey!

Chill out, Ike. Yeah, chill out, Ike.
All right, set him up and I'll have two

lumps. Yeah, I'd like to give him two
lumps.

Ike, sit down and stop being a baby. I
don't...

that way.

Nothing worse than a mouse with an
attitude.

Boy, this coffee's hot.

It's tea.

And in the glow of the fire of the
burning mousetraps,

Mr. Mouse realized he had nothing to
fear ever again.

Finally, the years of wandering were
over. He was home at last.

The end.

Whoa, whoa, good story.

Yeah? What is it? Our noses?

Aw, kind of cute stuff, will ya?

You don't look like, but you're both
funny. I like playing with you guys.

Yeah, well, I like playing with you too,
Chrissy.

You do?

Yeah. Don't sound so shocked. I mean, I
don't do it all the time. It's, well,

sometimes I like playing with the big
girls too.

Like last night?

Right. You know, just so you know, I
would have babysat you for free tonight.

Really? Ooh, big hero.

Hey, Chrissy, tomorrow I'm going to wax
my cut. You want to help me?

Really? Oh, yeah.

Oh, this is boring.

You bet. 7 o 'clock sharp, a .m.

You're getting up that early?

No, you are. I need the car by 8 .30 so
I can take you to breakfast.

All right.

Okay.

All right, all right, under the covers.
Here you go.

Okay.

Take that, Goldilocks.

See you in the morning.

You were so rudely interrupted.

Ike, it's bedtime.

Oh, bedtime's for losers. Come on, let's
party.

I'm helping Mike early in the morning,
remember?

Oh, so you're saying you'd rather detail
Mike's car tomorrow than to play with

me now?

Ike, I gotta go to sleep.

Oh, fine.

Okay. Well, I wanted to play tea party
by myself anyway.

I'm a grown mouth.

So you put this all together at
Chrissy's school?

No, it just started there, but it does
make sense.

Chrissy does have this hero worship
thing for Mike.

Yeah, that's true.

So maybe if they spend more time
together, she won't need Ike. Honey, I

pull professional rank on you, but I
doubt if one evening together is going

make any difference with Ike.

Yeah, says you.

Did you say something?

Growing Pains will be right back.
