Well, I had a wonderful time.

Well, thank you very much. So did I. You
know, you're the best date I ever had.

Really? Yeah.

Can I come in?

Oh, no.

Well, can I see you again? I think I'd
like that.

Can I have a kiss?

Of course.

No, no, wait a minute.

I bought you dinner.

If you cannot buy love, you have to win
it. You have to earn it.

Now, I already love you, but not because
you bought me dinner.

See, I like the way you beg.

Beg? Yes.

Now. Really?

And talk slow.

Mommy? Now, why is she still up? I don't
know. That's your child, not mine.

Don't come in.

What do you mean, don't come in? I'm
supposed to tell Grandpa when you're

coming. Well, we're coming.

Oh, Rudy, no, no.

Don't wake him up. Can I say goodnight
to Grandpa?

As long as you don't wake him.

Come on.

Goodnight, Rudy.

Goodnight, Daddy.

And I didn't even have to buy her
dinner.

Here, here. You can't sleep out in the
park, sir.

There you go.

When'd you slip in? We just got in. I
just closed my eyes there for a second.

This sofa, it'll do it to you every
time.

You know you're right. Yeah.

Well, I... Better get going. No, why
don't you stay? We'll play a little

I don't want your mother to worry about
me.

All right, now look.

Saturday, understood?

But remember, your mother and I don't
want to fuss now. I mean, after 48

anniversaries to 49th, it's no big deal.
I understand.

Now, keep it simple. Yes, indeed. Keep
it simple. Although not so simple as to

disappoint the children. I have a
feeling that they're really looking

this. The children? Yeah, I feel that
they're really looking forward to eating

at the dining room table and eating off
the good dishes.

Do you have any idea what the children
would like to eat for dinner?

Veal. Veal.

Any particular kind of sauce you think
the children would like?

They love Bing cherry sauce. Bing cherry
sauce, you're right.

Don't you know that's what they say to
me?

Now, do you think they'll want some kind
of dessert?

Well, maybe a cake from one of those
nice German bakeries on the east side.

I don't believe you. Just the other day,
I was taking the children for a walk,

and they went to the bakery, and they
mashed their little faces up. Dad,

And they'd look, they'd say, oh, look at
that cake. That's all we want for

Saturday. Chocolate cake.

Are you sure they weren't looking at a
Linzer tort with a very thin layer of

raspberry jam?

I think you're right.

I think you're right. I think that's
what it was.

Now, now, do you think that after
dinner, the children would enjoy a

nice hand roll?

Old cigar?

Imported.

You know my children better than I do.

Oh,

here it is. The recipe for veal in a
Bing cherry sauce.

But can we make it as good as Grandma
made? I'll be happy if we can even get

close.

Tonight's dinner will have Bing cherry
sauce. The last bunch in the store, and

got them. Yay! Way to go, Mom!

Hey, you... Oh, cherries! Yes!

And if one of those goes into your
mouth, Theo, I'm coming in after it.

We thought it would be nice if we cooked
the meal for Grandma and Grandpa's

anniversary. And I'm sure your girls
will do a great job.

Theo, I mean all of us.

I don't cook.

Maybe you should learn.

Why? Theo, you're going to leave this
house one day and you're going to want

eat. You know, I have my girlfriend
cook.

Now, where are you getting this attitude
from?

Cockroach. Oh, cockroach.

You see, we decided we're only going to
date girls who cook.

Theo, the women of today have better
things to do than to stay in the

That's because the women of today
haven't met the man of tomorrow.

Claire.

Claire! Hi. I saw the portrait that
Oliver Johnson did of my mother and

and it's fantastic.

I think they are going to be so
surprised.

Yeah. The painting is from the family.

I thought it would be nice if I got
something from you and me.

That's so sweet. What is it?

I mean, you know, sometimes I really
amaze myself.

What is it? Here.

Here it is. Look at that.

Yeah. See, I amazed you.

A cruise to Europe? That's right. A
cruise to Europe. Lisbon, Amsterdam,

Carlo. When they get this, they're going
to bronze the shoes you're wearing now.

I booked an open passage so my mom and
dad can take the cruise anytime they

want. Cruise.

Yeah. I thought we were getting them a
portrait.

Well, the portrait is from the whole
family, but the cruise to Europe is from

your mom and me. Pretty good, Dad.

Pretty good, Dad.

Can you do any better?

Now, if it was up to me, I'd send them
to Nairobi.

Nairobi? We've been studying about it in
school.

You got your great music, your great
people, and in the spring, You can drive

to the river and see the mating of the
wildebeest.

Mating of the wildebeest. See, Grandpa
and Grandma should see them now, because

someday they'll be extinct.

Grandma and Grandpa?

No, the wildebeest.

Oh, okay.

Nairobi is a wonderful idea, but I
already booked the cruise to Europe.

Maybe we can save Nairobi for something
else.

Well, could it maybe be my high school
graduation gift?

No. No, I'm sorry, because your mother
and I already bought you a tie.

Come on, inside.

But, Dad, we're not finished. I have the
sauce on the stove. Look, all I want to

do is go over the signal again, okay?
We've been over this three times

We're eating.

And all of a sudden, Sandra says, why
don't we all go into the living room?

Then we all get up, we come in here, and
get ready for the entertainment.

Yay!

Okay, now, Rudy, what is the signal?

Why don't we all go in the living room?
Right. Then we come in after the

entertainment, then I'll go and get the
present. We'll bring it here. Now, do me

a favor.

We don't want to say anything about
Europe because it's a surprise.

trouble finding the place. What? I was
looking for a house with balloons out

front. Let me look at you.

You are truly the most beautiful
children in the world. Now, let's see if

Granddad has any money for the children.

No, no, no.

The children give to you tonight.

Now, son, don't tell me you went against
my wishes and got us a gift. My lips

are sealed.

Mine, too.

Daddy said you want a boat.

What?

I didn't say Europe.

And this is what your cabin looks like.

How much did this set your backs on? I'm
not telling you.

How long is this, Cruz?

Three weeks.

A long time. We'll have to lock up the
house.

Oh, we can help you do that. Then
there's the mail.

I'll pick that up. And we'll have to
notify the paperboy and get somebody to

water the plants. And I'd better empty
the refrigerator.

We just bought some groceries.

Dad, Mom, we're not saying that you have
to leave right after dinner.

No, see, this is open passage. Anytime
you and Mom are ready to go, you just

call this number here.

What do you do out there in the middle
of the ocean?

Well, there's dancing lessons and bingo
and shuffleboard.

Those are things that old people do.

Well, you're not going to be on the ship
the whole time. You're going to be

stopping in some great cities.

Lisbon, Amsterdam, Monte Carlo.

Well, we don't know anybody there.

Dad, you didn't have enough money to
book passage for all your friends.

We just want the two of you to have a
great time. You go on tours.

Did you forget, son, I've been to
Europe. And to be honest, I wasn't very

of it. Yeah, because it was 1943 and you
were running alongside of a tank, Dad.

The place was a mess.

But I think they've built it up since
then.

I know it's lovely, Heathcliff.

But since your father's already been
there, maybe a cruise to Europe isn't

for us. Are you saying that you all
don't want to go?

I think that's what we're saying, son.
So, you don't want to go to Europe, but

what about, uh, Nairobi?

has wonderful people, the music there,
and if you go up the river at the right

time, you can see the mating of the
wildebeest.

Now, why would I want to see wildebeest?
Well, because they may become extinct.

Well, if they're mating, how are they
going to become extinct?

I'll ask Theo.

Son, we appreciate your generous offer,
but your mother and I are very happy at

home. We have everything we need. Our
friends are nearby, and we get great

reception on the television. And when I
open the door in the morning, there's my

newspaper. Russell may not be able to
get oatmeal in Monte Carlo.

Yes, he will.

It's called porridge.

Did a lovely job from start to finish.

Everything was delicious.

Thank you.

Theo, now you've already had two pieces.
That's Grandma and Grandpa's cake.

Okay, that's all right. Let the boy have
another piece. Take that big one on

there and there.

That's the piece I wanted.

I'll spill it with you, Dad. No, no, no,
Theo.

You eat the whole thing.

Now, you know you don't take food out of
a growing boy's mouth.

He takes it out of ours.

Son, you could stand to loosen up a
little around children.

Your father's right. You shouldn't
inhibit them. Children need to express

themselves freely.

Why don't the two of you go home?

when I expressed myself.

Son, when you expressed yourself, we got
calls from the neighbors.

Well, why don't we all move into the
living room?

What's going on? Come on. Don't worry
about it. Here we go.

What's going on here? You sit down
there.

Now, we have put together a little...
form of entertainment for you we have

record here and we're going to perform
for you we figure after 49 years of

marriage perhaps the two of you need a
little romantic inspiration

okay now here we go

The whole family chipped in to get this
for you. A long time ago in Durham,

North Carolina, at a ball, grand ball, a
young trumpet

player, while working the bandstand,
looking at the dancers, saw this

young lady named Anna.

And on a break, he came over to her, and
he asked her if she would be so

inclined...

as to have a cup of coffee with him
after the dance was over.

She said, no.

She said, but if you are so inclined,
you could have tea tomorrow afternoon

with me at my parents' home.

And he was so inclined.

And so they inclined for many, many
years.

And here we are. on the 49th year, and
you can see the results of their

inclining.

And we want to say happy 49th
anniversary to Mr.

and Mrs.

Russell Huxtable.

I don't believe it.

It's beautiful.

But we never pose for a portrait.

How'd you do this?

Well, Cliff found a couple of old
photographs in one of your old shoeboxes

he gave it to the artist and there you
have it.

Son, I, uh, I hope you don't mind the
way I express myself.

No, I don't.

I just can't keep my eyes off it.

Look at him standing there in his
uniform.

You know what? I knew he was coming
over.

I would just stay by my window so I
could just watch him walk up that road.

He always walked quickly because he knew
he was going to see her.

And when she sat in the parlor with him,
she was flustered because she knew he

was the strongest, smartest, nicest man
she'd ever met.

He may have seemed strong, but inside he
was a nervous wreck.

Because he'd never been with such a
beautiful and gracious creature.

Those two young people didn't know what
they were getting into, did they?

No, they didn't.

And we made it through a world war, 30
years of house payments. Midnight

feeding. Broken arms.

Dog bites.

And the toughest of all, Heathcliff.

Oh, did you ever think he would wind up
with such a fine family?

I had my doubts.

When you have a boy who clowns around in
school and never cleans his room and

tries to parachute off a garage, it's
hard to say. Now,

there's someone who should raise
children.

Did you see their faces when I unveiled
it?

Total surprise.

Not as surprised as I was when you
mentioned the wildebeest.

I'm desperate.

You're a good son, Cliff.

Yes, I am.

Do you think that one day we'll go to
Theo's house and celebrate our wedding

anniversary with his family?

No, because Theo will probably be living
here with his family.

Delicious tea.

Chamomile.

You're dead.

I've loved it ever since that first day
I came to call on you.

The gentleman sipping tea with me now is
just as handsome as the gentleman I sat

across from that day.

The lady is even more beautiful.

Thank you.

49 years.

Doesn't seem that long.

Russell, when they offered us that
cruise, we came up with every excuse in

book.

Yes, we did.

What are we afraid of?

I don't know.

Those young people in that picture would
have been on that boat already.

I can do without my morning paper for a
while.

What's to keep us from bringing oatmeal
to Monte Carlo?

Nothing.

Let's lock up the house and take off.

We won't even tell the family we're
going.

We're just sending them a postcard.

Happy anniversary.

Happy anniversary.

Cliff.

Your feet are freezing.

That's why I put them over there.

Why don't you put them back on your side
of the bed until they warm up?

Now they're cold and lonely.

Honey, what do you think it will be like
after 49 years of marriage?

I don't know. But I hope that it will be
as smooth as my mother and father.

Oh, yeah.

Mm -hmm. What do you think their secret
is?

Probably just living one day at a time.

You know, the 22 years I've been married
to you have been the happiest one

day at a time I've ever had in my life.

Chris, I love the way you beg.

Bring your cold feet over here.

Just your feet now, just your feet.

Just your feet now, just your feet. Just
your feet now, just your feet. Just

your feet now, just your feet.

All right.
