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 world.

Everybody's got a special kind of story.

Everybody finds a way to shine.

We don't matter that you got not a lot. So what? 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.

during the night.

But you ought to pack the cork in your mouth.

Hi, guys. Hey, am I interrupting anything?

No, we're just sitting here resisting temptation.

That's good.

That means you deserve the present I got for you. A present?

Oh, boy!

Thanks, Mr. Drummond. This telescope is out of sight.

I'm sure you boys will have lots of fun with it.

From way up here, you can see all the stars and planets and all the other

heavenly bodies.

Yeah. There's one crossing the street right now.

I don't know. Take a look at that girl.

Ah, who cares about girls?

I ain't even had a dog yet.

Well, enjoy yourself, fellas. I'll be in my study helping Kimberly with her

homework. Thanks, Mr. Daniels. You're welcome.

You never looked at that long eye. Short eye.

Let's jump one.

in this while I'm cleaning his bowl. Oh, I see.

You expect me to believe that?

You got something against cleaning goldfish?

Arnold, Arnold, Arnold.

You may be a size 8, but when it comes to trouble, you're a 42 long.

Yes, sir.

And the shower came in a plastic bag.

Uh -oh.

What is that supposed to mean?

Nothing. Some people hiccup.

I... Uh -oh. Uh -oh.

It's a family curse.

There have been several near misses in the past, and they all come from your

balcony, Mr. Drummond.

I'm sure they did.

that this happened to you, Henry, and I can see to it that it doesn't happen

again. Here.

Will this cover the damage?

Oh, sure it will.

Usually I get hit by pigeons, and I don't tip.

of you reading the Wall Street Journal.

Oh, yeah.

Life ain't just comic strips, you know.

Tell me, what do you think of today's market?

I think the price of tomatoes is too high.

Arnold, one day you may be an inscrutable financial genius, but right

are completely scrutable.

Did you notice that? anything unusual about henry the maintenance man yeah it

was wet i guess the man sweats a lot yeah and this time he certainly

had a lot of help did you do it do what you know what henry was hit from above

with a bag full of water

I doubt it, since it's well known that there's a mad water bomber in this

building. In fact, right in this apartment.

Well, you shouldn't go accusing Willis of nothing you can't prove.

You're right.

You're right.

By the way, did you know it was the maintenance man you hit?

Oh, yeah. That wasn't just a lucky... I see you've caught Mrs.

Garrett's family curse.

I better do something about my mouth. It's open 24 hours...

bombs three times. Only twice.

I got one more coming.

Listen, Arnold.

Now, what you did was very dangerous.

You could hurt somebody very seriously by dropping things from above like that.

I didn't mean to hurt anybody.

I was just having fun.

We shouldn't have fun at somebody else's expense.

Now, I'm sorry, but this time you're going to be punished.

I can't remember that far back.

Besides, we weren't talking about me.

Well, let's make it even and don't talk about me either.

I'm sure that everybody else in this family would agree with me that you

be punished.

I'll show you.

Kimberly!

Mrs. Garrett, would you come in here, please?

Will this take long, Mr. Drummond? I got a problem with the turkey.

What's the problem?

To get it to sit in the oven three hours with its legs crossed.

It isn't that funny.

Just a joke to lighten up the mood in here.

How did you know it needed lightening?

Uh -oh.

Sorry, Daddy. I was on the phone.

What's up?

Well, Arnold dropped a water bomb on the maintenance man. Now, I warned him

about it before, and I promised him he'd be punished if he did it again.

He doesn't have to keep his promise to me.

Am I being an unreasonable father?

No, no, I agree with you, Mr. Drummond. So do I, Daddy.

How about no desserts for a couple of nights?

No desserts?

I just sprinkle them in and drown him.

Why not send him to bed without his dinner tonight? No, not good.

I'm such a pushover, I'd sneak a poo to him.

I've got an idea.

I'll bet you have.

What? How about sending me to a horror movie?

I just hate it when I'm scared.

Arnold, I'm afraid there's just one solution.

This calls for a spanking.

This has been very popular right up until this year.

If you really want to torture poor little Arnold, why don't you just put

a rack and dredge him?

Yes, and when you're through, you'll have a long, thin basketball player.

Oh, thanks.

I'd rather try Mother Nature's way.

All right, Arnold.

You go up to your room, and I'll deal with you directly.

Yes.

to sit on my directives.

Finally.

Look, I don't like this either.

I don't like the idea of spanking you.

That ain't one of your best ideas.

I'm sorry, but that's the one we're going to go with. Upstairs for your

spanking.

Will you please stop looking at me as if I'm Attila the Hun?

I didn't say a word.

But I congratulate you on reading lips.

Daddy, please don't spank him. He can break his tender little bones.

Don't worry. Where I'm going to spank him, he doesn't have any bones.

He's not in there.

He's not?

Arnold, where are you hiding?

Come out and take your punishment like a man.

Are you standing under the bed?

Good little bird.

You can uncross your legs now.

Hi. Hi.

Anything going on that an innocent brother should know about?

Oh, Arnold the Mad Bomber has struck again.

He dropped a bag of water on Henry the Maintenance Man.

Uh -oh.

There's a lot of...

It says, Willis, please cover my goldfish at night. He can't sleep with

lights on.

I'm running away. I'll miss you all.

Even Mr. Drummond.

Arnold.

Now, listen, kids.

He couldn't have gone very far.

We've called the police. We're checking the neighborhood for him.

We'll find him.

I hope so.

I'll bet that's him right now.

Any news, Henry?

Oh, sorry, Mr. Drummond. There's not a trace of Arnold anywhere in the

neighborhood. Are you sure you looked everywhere?

Yes, sir.

All right, well, thanks very much for your help, Henry. I'll keep looking.

Poor Arnold. He must be lost in the crowd. There's eight million people in

York. He's so small, he can get locked in a crowd of three.

Oh, don't look, Mr. Drummond.

Nobody has seen Arnold.

He's not in the building. He's not in the streets. He's not in the park.

He's not in the movie theater.

He just disappears.

Everywhere I went, I waved this bag of cookies.

Mr., uh, Drummond? Yes.

I found your son.

Have you got the wrong kid?

I'm afraid you have, officer.

I told you I wasn't lost.

I guess I forgot to mention that Arnold is a black child.

It just never occurred to me. I only think of him as my son.

Well, uh, we'll keep looking, Mr. Drummond.

Come on, kid.

Mrs. Garrett, could you get me a glass of water and two aspirins? Oh, Mr.

Drummond, you had no dinner.

All right, make it three aspirins.

Well, I'm sorry, Arnold. I just can't, can't let Mr. Drummond worry.

I've got to tell him. Could you wait a while? Like, till I'm 21?

Now, look, Arnold. This is good.

Oh, yes, Mr. Drummond!

But please don't tell him. Please! Please! At

last, please, got to me.

Oh, all right. I'll give you 30 seconds to... Give yourself up, all right? If

I don't, will you snitch on me? It's not snitching, Arnold, if Mr. Drummond

discovers you all on his own. Mrs. Garrett!

Coming, Mr.

Drummond.

Don't we have any aspirin? Oh, yes, sir, yes, sir. I've got it right here. Thank

you.

What is it?

Is there a law against taking an aspirin in the kitchen? I just thought you'd

like to sit down for 30 seconds while they take a peck.

What was that noise?

What noise?

I didn't hear anything.

Me either.

Oh!

There it is again.

Louder. Oh, Mr.

Drummond, there's something going on in the kitchen.

Mr. Drummond, I wonder where that sound is

coming from.

I don't hear anything. What sound?

Isn't there anything hiding behind that big bag of garbage?

Like what? Like Arnold.

Did your father have any luck?

He sure did.

Look what I found.

Oh, man,

I'm so happy to see you, P. Bray.

He was in the hot tub playing submarine.

This little devil never left the apartment.

Well, it's nice to be back among my loved ones. We're going to have a party.

First things first.

You still have a spanking coming because of the water bomb.

You sure do know. ought to spoil a party.

Come on, Arnold.

Don't spank me, please.

I may grow up to be mean.

Come here.

Hold it, Mr. Drummond.

You know, I agree he deserves spanking, but you ain't the one to give it to him.

Oh?

What do you mean, Willis?

The only one that ever spanked us was Mama and Papa, and they're dead.

If anybody's got to spank Arnold, it's got to be family, and that's me.

Right on. You spank me, Willis.

Well, we're one family, and I happen to be the head of it.

But you're not blood family.

I am.

I'm sorry that you feel that way, but if that's the way you want it, all right.

You spank Arnold properly.

Oh, he want me good.

father gave instructions to the hitman.

Willis, you're crying.

Don't tell me the little one beat up the big one.

What is it, Willis?

I don't like spanking my little brother.

Then I think you did it so good.

I tried to tell you, Willis, that discipline is a response. responsibility

goes with being head of the family.

Now, we're all one family, and I'm the head of it. I'm sure glad you're the

of it, because kids shouldn't spank kids.

Especially when one of them kids is me.

Next time, Mr. Drummond, you spank Arnold.

There ain't gonna be no next time.

That's right, Arnold. You are never going to put a water bomb on anybody

again. Never. I promise.

I'm sure you've learned your lesson.

Yeah, I learned another lesson, too. Good. What's that?

The next time... I do anything.

We'll be right back.

We'll be right back.
