All language subtitles for Diffrent Strokes s01e06 Goodbye Dolly

Now the world don't move to the beat of
just one drum. What might be right for

you may not be right for some. A man is
born, he's a man of means.

Then along come two, they got nothing
but the genes. But they got different

strokes to take, different strokes to
take, different strokes to move the

Everybody's got a special kind of story.

Everybody finds a way to shine.

It don't matter that you got not a lot.
So what? I'll have theirs. You'll have

yours and I'll have mine.

And together we'll be fine.

Different strokes to move the world.
Different strokes to move the world.

It's about time you stopped sneaking
around.

I wasn't sneaking around.

I thought I heard mice in my socks.

It's about time you stopped sleeping
with that dog.

you try to tell me I'm dreaming this?
I'm giving it my best shot.

I got your age sleeping with a doll.

I can't believe it. Good.

We can forget the whole thing.

Homer's my best friend.

We've been together since I was a little
kid.

He stuck with me when I had the mumps.

What did you ever do?

school two whole weeks.

Okay, I owe you one disease.

Let's just forget I sleep with a dog.

Nobody knows.

You calling me a nobody?

Yeah, and nobody better tell nobody.

There you go, dear.

Thanks, Mrs. Garrett.

Good morning, Mrs. Garrett. Good
morning, Mr. Drummond. Good morning,

Good morning. Well, Kimberly, what's all
this?

Oh, our school's having a charity sale,
and all the students are donating

things. I put you down for something,
Daddy. Oh?

Like what?

Like anything you'd like to give. Can be
old or new. I wish I was still married.

Why's that?

I donate my old husband.

Hey, you can have my old golf club.

The last time I played golf, the county
suggested I take up bowling.

He said the balls are harder to lose.

Thank you, Daddy. I'll take them.

Mrs. Garrett, do you have something
you'd like to donate to charity?

Yeah, I got something for you.

I'll donate my black wig.

I gave it up because everyone thought I
was Elizabeth Taylor.

Oh, hi, everybody.

Hi,

Mrs. Garrett.

Good morning, Waffles. It's a lovely
day, and I'm so sorry you can't be

long enough to enjoy it.

Kimberly is collecting old things for a
charity sale at her school. Yeah, I'm

counting on you guys to donate something
you don't need. Will you take, Willis?

I have an old pair of sneakers you can
have.

They're so old, they ran out of sneak.

Come on, Arnold. You must have something
you want to get rid of. Yeah, I'd like

to get some poor, deserving kid my next
two years of school.

What about that beat -up doll you sleep
with?

Doll?

Who sleeps with a doll?

What doll?

And who's got a doll?

The one you keep in the dresser drawer.

The one with the yellow hat?

Nobody knows.

You told me. I didn't open my mouth.

Then your mouth has a real bad...

something about Homer.

No, I didn't.

I have secrets I don't even tell myself.

Hey, Arnold, where are you going?

I'm not hungry.

You can get my waffles at charity.

Hey, come here, Arnold.

Look, now, you don't need to feel
embarrassed just because you sleep with

doll.

Kimberly used to do that.

Sure, it was the kind that cried real
tears. Daddy used to think I wet the

Arnold. I never told this to anybody
before, but I slept with a doll until I

in my late 20s. You did?

Mm -hmm. It was a little owl, and every
night I'd squeeze it, and it would say,

and I'd answer, anybody, anybody.

You're just not old enough yet to give
up your doll. You'll do it when you're

ready. I am so old enough.

I can give up that ratty old doll.

Like Mr. Drummond said, Arnold, you
don't have to. Well, I want to, and I'm

giving it up.

I'm a big boy now, Mr. Garrett.

This morning at breakfast in front of
everybody, you said that you were a big

boy now and that you were giving Homer
up.

Don't you guys know when a little kid is
bluffing to save his reputation?

Arnold, you gonna end up a 35 -year -old
man with a wife, two kids, and a doll?

You can have my wife and two kids. I
just want my doll.

Arnold, Arnold, this is easily solved.

Kimberly, give him back his doll.

this afternoon.

You sold Homer?

I think my heart just stopped.

Kimberly, first thing tomorrow, I want
you to go and buy Homer back.

From who, Daddy?

It was just the man.

Maybe they'll have his name and address
at the charity sale.

That's right.

Charities are tax deductible. Maybe he
bought Homer with a check. A check for

ten cents?

Tomorrow, somehow, we'll find Homer.

Now, off to bed.

How am I going to fall asleep tonight?

Oh, don't worry. You'll be able to fall
asleep.

No, I won't. Without Homer, I'll only be
able to fall awake.

Oh, no.

I'll buy you another doll to sleep with.

I can't sleep with another doll.

Sleeping without Homer is like eating a
breakfast cereal that don't crackle and

pop up your nose.

Oh, come on.

Poor Homer.

He never slept without me.

Arnold, could you try sleeping without
Homer for one night?

Well, I'll try sleeping without Homer,
but it ain't easy quitting cold turkey.

You can do it. Good night, Arnold.

Lights out.

Arnold, don't talk to me.

Listen, Arnold.

I'm sorry, but I wouldn't do anything to
hurt you. You know, we're brothers.

I'd rather be total strangers.

Man, I didn't do it on purpose.

You still did it.

Yeah, but only because you said yourself
this morning you were giving that doll

up. In front of everybody.

Boys, I said that for them.

Not us.

How am I supposed to know that?

life where you be sitting on your
brains.

I'll bean you.

Mrs. Garrett, it's me.

No fair. Your bat's bigger than mine.

Oh, I thought it was a prowler.

Thank goodness I didn't hit you over the
head.

Tomorrow's payday.

Thank goodness they didn't see you. Who?
The burglars.

Burglars? I had to come up here from
Harlem to get ripped off?

I hear something about used cars.

Used cars?

That crazy Sam, the used car man.

Arnold, was the television set on in
there?

Yeah, I couldn't sleep.

You little devil.

I'll turn off the set.

Hey, what's going on down here? What's
all the noise about?

Oh, nothing much.

Arnold can't sleep, so he woke up. the
TV to keep him company.

I'm telling you, I can't sleep without
Homer. The monsters will get me.

You're a big boy.

There are no monsters in your room.

You never heard Willis snore.

Oh, well, as long as we're all up, why
don't we have a party?

Oh, boy!

I'll get my harmonica.

Hold it, Tiger.

There's not going to be any party, and
we are all going to bed, and that

includes you, and that is an order.

All right, if you say so.

Of course you will I'm gonna take you up
to your room.

I'm gonna put you in your bed I am going
to fluff up your pillow and I'm gonna

tuck you in all nice and snuggly and
then you know what's gonna happen

has slept a wink.

Don't get mad at me. I didn't give Homer
away.

He's the dog snatcher.

How can I get to be the only child?

Arnold, why don't you try counting sheep
again?

Well, what does that do?

It'll give me a chance to get behind him
and belt him over the head.

Please, Willis, no violence.

Unless it's absolutely necessary.

Please, Arnold, the sun will soon be up.

If there's any way you can stop it, I
help you.

Why not try some warm milk?

Oh, I love warm milk. Wonderful,
wonderful.

Especially with bacon.

concerned about Arnold, Doctor.

I know that you told me he'd eventually
fall asleep, Doctor, but that was two

days ago.

The rest of us that are falling apart,
Arnold's just fine.

My daughter's getting wrinkled. She's
only 13.

Yes, I'll call you later, Doctor, if we
survive. If we don't, Arnold will call

you.

Goodbye.

What did the doctor say?

Same as before. Not to worry. Arnold
will eventually fall asleep on his own.

I have this horrible feeling that he'll
be collecting Social Security by then.

Well, I had an idea.

I've hired a private detective.

I'll get it.

Drummond? Yes?

Miles Monroe, private eye.

Oh, yes, please, come in.

Why didn't you use the phone?

I thought it would be safer to come up
the back. You never can tell who's

watching a building.

You know what I mean?

Miles Monroe, private eye.

Garrett, housekeeper.

Mr. Monroe is going to help us find
Arnold's doll.

It's worth a shot.

Shot? Who's been shot?

No, no, no. It's just a figure of
speech.

Hey, look. Drummond.

I charge $200 a day plus expenses. Take
it or leave it. That's all right. This

is a very unusual case. I want you to
find a doll.

Well, you came to the right guy.

Monroe's the name. Finding dolls is the
game.

Okay.

Now, what's this doll's name?

Homer.

Kinky.

Now, what was the doll wearing?

Kind of a raggedy blue thing.

When was this doll last seen?

Sleeping with my son.

All right.

How old is your son?

Eight years old.

Are you putting me on, Drummond?

Even Burt Reynolds waited until he was
ten.

You don't seem to understand.

My son's doll was given away, and I'm
hiring you to find it. Wait a minute.

we talking about a stuffed doll with
fake eyes?

Ordinary kind of doll that kids play
with? That's right.

Well, now this case is getting
interesting.

Here's a picture of Arnold and Homer.

Which one's Homer?

The little one with the fake eyes.

I gotcha.

So, uh, the other one, the tall one, is
the real kid.

Well, naturally.

I just wanted to show you you're not
dealing with some loser from the gong

It's vital that you find this doll, Mr.
Monroe.

Now, it was bought by somebody at a
charity sale at this address.

Okay, now who bought it?

We don't know. Just some man.

That narrows it down to only half of New
York.

Got any other clues?

No, that's all I'm afraid. Every effort
we made to find the doll ended in a dead

end. That's all?

Who do you think I am, Drummond, the
Pink Panther?

Please help the poor child. There must
be something you can do about it.

Look, Mr. Monroe, I can't tell you how
important it is that my son get his doll

back. Now, he has not slept in two days.

Hey, Drummond, what's the big deal? Why
don't you just buy the kid a new doll?

No, no, we tried that. They don't make
them anymore.

Ah, let me think.

Boy, I sure wish he'd lost a cat.

Cat? Yeah, I never have any trouble
finding cats. I have this old suit that

smells like fish.

Now look, Mr. Monroe. Okay, wait a
minute, wait a minute. Just let me

I got it!

We'll blow up this picture. I'll have an
exact duplicate made of the doll. We'll

give it to the kid. He'll never know the
difference. He's off to dreamland, and

the case is closed. That's a great idea.

Mr. Monroe, I could kiss you.

That'll cost you extra, baby.

Now, look, gentlemen, do you remember
any identifying marks on the doll, like

birthmark or a mole?

I seem to remember a spot of strawberry
jam right on the left elbow.

Yeah. Sometimes Arnold would wake up
with Homer stuck to his ear.

I'm hungry again.

Here's my son. on, Mr. Monroe.

How you doing, Homer?

That's Arnold.

This man is going to, uh, find your
doll, Arnold. He's a detective.

Oh, boy, a real private eye.

That's right, kid.

Monroe's the name. Finding dolls is my
game.

I'll have Homer back here before the
night's over.

Oh, don't worry. I'll be up.

Well, if we are.

Well, kid, I got to hit the pavement,
pound a lot of shoe leather before the

night's over.

Keep in touch, okay, kid?

See you, Drummond.

Thanks for hiring that guy to find
Homer, Mr. Drummond. Now I feel a lot

Good. Now that we're going to get Homer
back, how about taking a nap?

747 has to land sometime.

Recognize anything in that picture?

Yeah, that's me and Tama.

This kid does miss a trick.

Well, did you find him? Did you find
him?

Miles Monroe.

Always gets us down, kid.

Well,

isn't there anything you want to say to
Mr. Monroe, Arnold?

When a guy sleeps with a doll for eight
years, he gets to know.

Tough luck, Drummond.

I guess that's 200 clams down the old
toilet.

Well, thanks anyway.

Stop by my office tomorrow. My secretary
will have a check for you.

And I'm sorry about the kid.

That's the trouble with being a private
eye.

It's so emotionally involved with the
kids.

tried to trick you.

I only did it because it's impossible to
find Homer again and we're all so

worried because you hadn't slept.

Homer's gone forever.

Listen, Arnold.

I know it's hard, but sometimes in life
we have to say goodbye to things.

Even things that we love a lot.

That's part of growing up.

But you don't have to have a doll or
anything else to hold on to to feel

and to help you go to sleep.

You're surrounded by people that love
you.

And that's the greatest security there
is.

Just one drum. What might be right for
you may not be right for some. A man is

born. He's a man of means.

They'll all come to.

They got nothing but the genes.

They got different strokes. They
different strokes.

They different strokes to move the
world.

Different strokes. They different
strokes.

They different strokes.
