All language subtitles for Dear John s01e21 Friends and Lovers

Hi, honey. I'm home.

Dear John is filmed before a live studio
audience.

Yes, sir, Mr. Lacey, that's some nice
shoe you got there.

I understand, Mr. Lacey, you got a big
date tonight, huh?

That the lady, she's gonna be all over
you.

Oh, Mr. Lacey, a hundred dollar tip.

You's a very big sport, very big.

Hey! just the moment I come into the
door.

Kurt, what the hell are you doing here?

John, why is it every time I walk in a
room, someone says that?

Kurt, what do you want?

What are you talking about?

Don't you remember?

Tonight is the monthly one -to -one club
mixer dance.

What makes you think I'd want to spend
an evening with a bunch of desperate,

lonely people pretending to have fun
while they're dying inside?

You haven't missed one yet.

Besides, John, this isn't like one of
those regular punch -and -cookie deals.

This is like a big fancy party. It's
over at that Dr.

Osborne's house. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

There's gonna be, you know, stiff drinks
and loose women.

Yeah, well, look, I'm sorry, Kurt, but
tonight I have a date, okay? Excuse me.

Oh, yeah?

What are you talking, John? Escort
service?

Look, Kirk, Cindy happens to be a very
classy lady, and I happen to be looking

forward to a very nice evening tonight,
so you'll just have to go without me.

All right, John, have it your own way.

But if you want to make a good
impression, I'll do something about the

polish on that tie.

Oh, damn!

It's all right. It's all right. No big
deal.

It's my favorite tie, but I'm not going
to let anything spoil this evening for

you tonight.

Yeah, uh... Now, who could this be?

Who is it?

Ken.

What are you doing here? John, you're my
oldest and dearest friend.

I'm a desperate man. My life is going
down the tubes. I'm this close to

myself in front of a bus.

Yeah, well, the thing is, you see, I
have this date.

John! All right, all right, I'm sorry.

What is it?

It's Maggie.

Our marriage is crumbling before my
eyes. Again?

Oh, I know it seems to happen every
three months, but this time it's

We're a good week ahead of schedule.

Listen, Ken.

You and Maggie have always had a stormy
relationship.

You always said that's what makes your
marriage exciting.

Yeah, well, I'll tell you, John, it's
times like this I really envy the

and emptiness of your life.

The other thing about that is, tonight I
happen to have a very important date.

John, John, you've got to help me. I'm
at the end of my rope.

Please, tell me what to do.

Well, I would talk to her.

You would?

Absolutely.

Okay. Okay, great.

What are you doing?

I can't let another minute go by. I'm
going crazy here. Oh, all right.

Listen, I would tell her that I loved
her, I can't live without her, and I

do anything to make this right.

Great, John. Okay.

Hello, Maggie? Hold on. John has a few
things he wants to tell you. No, no, no.

Hello,

Maggie. Yeah, Ken was just telling me
about the kind of problems you had.

He also said that he loves you, he can't
live without you, and he would do

anything to make this right.

Now, come on, Maggie. Of course he loves
you.

Just think of all those special things
he's done for you.

What special things?

Oh, I know. How about that time last
April when he took you on that surprise

weekend to Atlantic City?

No, no, no, no.

I see. You mean you've never been to
Atlantic City?

Are you sure, Maggie?

I must have been thinking about somebody
else.

Oh, right.

How about that lovely necklace he bought
you for your anniversary last

September?

Yeah, well, it was beautiful, right? I
mean, you must love that. I know,

I was the one that helped him pick it
out.

Your anniversary is in July.

And he bought you a blender.

He bought her a blender?

Well, listen, I'm sure there's a...
Maggie? Hello? Hello? Hello?

Well,

thanks.

Boy, that helped a lot. What are you
getting mad at me for? You're the one

been lying to everyone.

Who the hell was it we picked out that
necklace for? Who remembers?

Why don't I let you get me in the middle
of all this? Boy, I'm asking myself the

same thing.

I guess I better go home and try to undo
some of the damage you've done.

Hi, Cindy, it's John.

Listen, about our date tonight, I'm
going to be a little late, but it'll

take me a little while. Hmm?

John Lacey.

It'll just take me a few minutes more.

You did what?

Well, of course, anybody can forget.

It's lucky I called you to remind you.

Oh, really?

Well, if you and Roger haven't picked
out a restaurant yet, there are dinner

reservations at Le Chardonnay under my
name.

L -A -C -E -Y.

I think that's called breakdancing.

I do hope Dr. Osborne has homeowner's
insurance.

Did you get your passport yet, Kate?

Picked it up this morning. Must be very
excited about going to Greece, huh? Oh,

I can't wait. Oh, you'll love it. Just
be careful not to drink the water.

My ex -husband and I went there on our
honeymoon.

Poor George spent the better part of the
trip in the bathroom.

I'm having a little bon voyage party a
week from Sunday, and I hope that

everyone will be there.

Except, you know who.

Kirk will be very hurt.

I know.

Oh, that was great. Let's do that again.
Thank you, but I'm pretty exhausted.

I've got to get off my feet.

Oh, sounds good.

You need a hand? No, thanks.

I feel sick.

Yes, Kirk has that effect on most
people.

Should I see if I could find Dr.
Osborne?

This is Dr.

Osborne.

Oh,

it's nice to meet you.

I'm going to get some punch. Excuse me.

What's your name?

Uh, Ralph.

I'm Wanda.

Wanda by name, Wanda by nature.

The gypsy in my soul, I suppose.

I like to think of myself as a free
spirit.

Live for the moment, be the regrets to
the poets.

Our bodies were made to be thrilled,
Ralph.

So why waste a single sensation?

I get the impression that you feel the
same way, Ralph.

Oh, yes.

Free spirit, that's me.

Once in a supermarket, I went through
the express line with 11 items.

What a rush.

I could tell you were dangerous, Ralph.

Listen, I was thinking of leaving here
and going back to my lonely, empty

apartment.

I've had enough to eat and drink, and
now I need just one thing to make this a

perfect evening.

I need a man, Ralph.

I need a big, strong man.

I need a man with stamina.

Well, I'll certainly keep my eyes open.

There you are, dear.

Where have you been keeping yourself all
evening? Oh, just taking a little tour

of the house.

If you don't mind, Doctor.

Of course not.

It's beautiful, isn't it?

Oh, yes. The library, the atrium.

The master bedroom.

Did you see the beautiful onyx tub in
the bathroom? My decorator says it's

enough for four people to bathe at once.

Six.

Oh, John, John, over here.

Hi, everybody. Hi. John, I didn't think
you were going to make it tonight.

Well, I just came down for a minute. I
can't for the life of me figure out why.

Nothing has worked out for me today.
Just nothing.

Oh, really?

I'd rather not talk about it.

All right.

Not only was I stood up, I ruined a
friend's dinner. Yes, dear, we heard

Bad day. Pity.

May I have a word with you? Excuse us,
everyone.

I believe your luck might be changing.

What do you mean? Well, I'm afraid I've
been playing Cupid. I met a very nice

woman. I told her all about you, and she
seemed very interested. Come on, come

on, Louise. Please, not today. It'll
just turn out to be another disaster.

Please. Nonsense, John. Look. She's over
there.

Oh, come on, Louise. She's gorgeous. She
wouldn't give me the time of day.

Now, now.

You never know until you try.

I don't know how many men I've told that
to.

Now, won't you go and watch? All right,
all right, but you'll see.

Excuse me, miss.

I would love to dance with you, but I'm
sure you're going to turn me down, so

would you please just do it as quickly
and painlessly as possible so I can go

home and go to bed?

Actually, I'd love to dance with you.
Sure, just my luck.

A terrific time tonight.

Funny, isn't it? How well the two of us
just instantly hit it off.

It's like some people say, uh, we must
have known each other in a previous

Yes, isn't that the stupidest thing you
ever heard?

Well, that's funny.

That's the same thing you said to me
that night we had dinner with Harriet

Marco Polo.

You know, I'm really glad you decided to
come tonight.

I was beginning to feel a little bit
sentimental.

Really? Why?

I don't know. A big party like this
always tends to remind me of my husband.

Oh, you really like parties, huh? Oh,
yes. David was the life of every party

ever attended.

He was gregarious, witty, and one of the
most intelligent men I'd ever met.

Oh, I don't know. From where I stand, I
think David was a complete fool.

Oh, why would you say that?

Well, he had to be an idiot to let
someone like you walk away.

He didn't let me walk away.

Well, if he was the one that walked out,
then he was more stupid than I thought.

Actually, he died.

I didn't know that. Would you excuse me
just for a second? Of course, of course.

A

spider,

big one.

Don't worry, I got him.

Oh, listen, uh, Liz, about what I said
before, you're not leaving, are you?

I had no idea it was getting so late.
Oh, God, just my luck. I knew things

turn out this way. Listen, before you
go, is there any way I can get your

number?

Sure.

Why don't we go over to your place and
I'll write it down.

My place.

Right.

This is a setup, isn't it?

Hi, guys.

Hey, uh, Red, uh, rumor has it you're
having a bamboo ash party Sunday night.

Anything I can do to help?

Yes.

Stay away.

All right.

That's the way you want it, but just do
me one favor, all right? What? What is

it, Kirk?

Take good care of yourself. Yeah, you
know, that's exactly what I thought you

were... What?

I said take good care of yourself.
There's a lot of mean people out there.

don't want anything to happen to you.

I'll be careful.

Hey, I'll miss you.

You'll miss me?

I want you to have this.

Why?

It's kind of a good luck charm. It's
been in my family forever. My

gave it to me just before she passed on,
and it's kept me out of some pretty

tight jams. I thought I'd do the same
for you.

Thanks. So?

Yeah?

Now can I come to your party on Sunday?

Yeah, yeah, sure, you can come.

All right.

Uh, listen, uh, before we go in, I just
want you to know that I'm not one of

those people who, uh, you know, expects
anything just because she came back to

my apartment with me.

It was my idea to come to your
apartment.

A great idea it was.

My book is right up there with fire and
the wheel.

Shall we?

Right.

All right.

Listen, uh... We have to be very quiet.
The lady next door likes to listen at

the wall with a glass.

What

the

hell are you doing here, and how did you
get in?

The woman next door let me in. Mrs.
Lemeski does not have a key to my

She used one of my credit cards.

John, you've got to do something about
that lock. I just don't feel safe here.

What?

Hello. Oh, sorry. Liz, this is Ken. He's
a friend of mine. Ken, Liz.

Nice to meet you. Hi.

So what are you doing here, Ken?

Maggie threw me out, and it's all your
fault. My fault? I was trying to help

you. Oh, some help.

It's the end of my marriage.

It's the end of 20 years.

I've lost my home, my wife.

My lovely kid.

I got nothing left to live for.

She's kind of tasty, isn't she?

Anyway, no big deal.

Just give me a week or two and I'll find
a place of my own. A week or two?

Listen, Ken, Liz and I... Good night,
John.

Where are you going?

Your friend needs help. It was nice
meeting you, Ken.

I'm sorry about what happened. No, no,
no, wait, wait, Liz, wait.

John, in or out? I'm trying to get some
sleep here.

Liz, would you mind waiting in the hall
for just a moment?

Sure.

What are you doing? I'm going to call
Maggie.

What? What?

Maggie, hello, this is John. Now, don't
say anything. I know you're angry, but

just give me a moment to pour Ken's
heart out to you.

Look, Maggie, please, take him back.

Take him back, please, please, please.
Take him back, please. Take him back.

You don't want a divorce. You know,
look, I know about divorce. Divorce

are a very dark, sallow group of people.

Now, divorce is very bad for your
health.

Take him back, if just for medical
reasons, just for your complexion. Take

back.

Maggie, unity is the cornerstone of our
society.

Marriage is the linchpin of that unity.

When marriage is... break up, you start
having all these people all over America

living separate lives in separate
apartments using separate deodorant

Maggie, for the sake of the ozone layer,
take him back.

All right, Maggie, Maggie, you don't
have to take him back permanently. Just

take him back tonight. Just tonight.

You don't like him? Throw him back
tomorrow.

Damn.

What's she saying? She's tired. She'll
take it back in the morning.

Oh, Liz.

Liz.

I knew something was going to happen to
Ruan this evening.

Look, maybe it's for the best. I don't
usually spend the night with someone on

the first date anyway. Oh, I understand.

What are you doing tomorrow night?

Sorry? No, no, I'm sorry. I didn't
really mean that. What I meant was, can

you again?

Sure. Can I buy you brunch sometime?

Brunch? You were going to sleep with me,
and now you're talking eggs, Benedict?

It's getting late, John.

Good night. I'll call you.

Oh, hi, Liz. Hi, Liz.

What are you... Come in.

Is your friend still with you?

Yes, he went back early this morning.
His wife relented and took him back.

What are you doing here?

I thought you might be in the mood for a
little Sunday brunch.

Sunday brunch?

Well, that sounds great. I'll just get
cleaned up.

Sunday brunch? You say Sunday? Today's
Saturday, isn't it?

Yes, I know.

But the restaurant that I had in mind is
in a little hotel in Connecticut.

I booked us a room for the whole
weekend.

You what? I mean, great.

So we better go.

Right.

You going like that?

Huh? Oh, yes, of course. I should pack a
few things first. Yes, why don't you do

that? Yeah.

I'll bring the car around. Yeah.

Be right down.
