All language subtitles for Dear John s02e21 True Confessions

Bye.

John is filmed in front of a live studio
audience.

Oh, hi, Louise.

Hello, Ralph.

Sorry. Oh, that's all right. I have that
effect on everybody.

The minute I open my mouth, people fall
asleep.

They won't even let me talk to the bus
driver anymore.

No, no, no, no, it's not that. I'm just
a little tired.

My baby kept me up all night.

My baby kept me up all night, too.

Oh, uh, Louise, uh, speaking of Junior,
I got him a present.

Thank you. That's very thoughtful.

What is it? Oh, it's just a little
outfit.

a one -month -old?

What, are you kidding me? Every chicken
pampas is gonna be after him.

He's gonna have to beat him off with a
rattle.

gets here, we can begin.

Oh, oh, John's got a thing at school
tonight. He said he'd meet us in the bar

afterwards. Well, his last Sylvia's
story is absolutely gripping. Go on,

Do I have to? Yes, dear.

It helps create a bond between us all.

at the juicy part, the crux of the
matter. You know, the moment you realize

you've been living a lie.

Yes.

It was one Thursday evening.

I was out late shopping.

Macy's Outlet stays open late on
Thursday nights.

Oh, briskly, dear.

When I returned, Frank was already home.
His Toyota was parked in the driveway.

I went into the house, but I couldn't
find him at first, so I went upstairs to

our bedroom.

The curtains were drawn, and it was...
rather dark, and as my eyes became

accustomed, I saw a woman sitting at my
dressing table putting on makeup. Where

was Frank?

Sitting at my dressing table putting on
makeup.

You mean there were both sitting at your
dressing table?

No, it wasn't a woman. It was Frank
wearing a brunette wig in my clothes.

What did I tell you?

Oh, Sylvia, how did he... What did you
say to him?

him straight in the eyes, and I said,
Frank, what are you doing in my clothes?

And he started crying.

Oh, that's terrible.

Oh, yeah.

Must have ruined his mascara.

He said that for years and years he'd
been secretly dressing up in my clothes.

And you never suspected anything?

Well, once I found some beer stains on a
blouse I'd never worn, and I had a

really big fight with the sales clerk
when I tried to return it.

What?

became completely brazen about it. He
went out and bought himself an entire

wardrobe. Mix and match, mostly. A
couple of Norma Kamali's.

Tell them what you did with the anti
-wrinkle cream.

I still find it hard to talk about that.
Of course you do, dear.

We understand.

I'll tell you later.

I just thought...

here. Didn't this cause a little bit of
a problem in the locker room at the

scuba diving club?

We had to resign.

Frank's own fault, really.

Instead of telling the truth and
allowing them time to get used to the

just turned up one evening wearing my
leopard skin string bikini.

Too much, too soon.

you ever see him? Oh, yeah. I see him
all the time.

In fact, he's picking me up later at the
bar around the corner.

He is?

Oh, yes. We're still very close.

Of course you are.

Like girlfriends.

Well, more than girlfriends, really.

More like sisters.

In fact, sometimes that's what we tell
people.

You tell people what? Hello, this is my
sister, Frank.

He picks out a girl's name that suits
his mood and he's off and running.

Yeah, but can't people tell?

Oh, you'd be amazed.

When Frank is all dolled up, he's really
something.

He's tall and striking.

In fact, he's gorgeous.

Well, you certainly seem to be handling
this well.

Oh, believe me.

There are times when it's pretty hard to
deal with.

Yeah, sure. It must be difficult when a
man leaves you for another woman.

Especially when the other woman is
himself.

You do that very well. Huh?

Oh, yeah. Well, I've been using chairs
and tables pretty much my whole life.

What I was thinking was, you're probably
waiting for somebody, right?

I mean, a pretty girl like you has got
to be waiting for somebody.

Husband? Boyfriend?

Warren Beatty?

Donald Trump?

Actually, I am waiting for my sister.

Oh. I'm Margo, by the way. Oh, well,
nice to meet you, Margo.

And my name is? John.

You know my name?

This is very eerie.

And this is like fate.

This is like I've still got my name tag
on, don't I?

It's a parent -teacher thing tonight.

I teach at a private school in
Manhattan.

Oh, how chic.

So you're waiting for your sister, huh?

She work around here?

No, no. Sylvia went to a support group
over at the community center.

When I talked to her earlier, she seemed
a little blue, so I thought I'd come by

and keep her company. That's amazing.
You know, I belong to a support group

meets here. Yeah.

The same night.

Why aren't you there?

Well, this thing at school was running
late, so I decided to come over here and

meet everybody after the group here at
the bar.

Not that we meet at bars every week. I
mean, it's not as if we need to meet at

bar after every meeting.

I mean, we don't usually... Would you
like to join me for a drink? Yes, I

Thank you.

Let me. What are you drinking?

Um, Boilermaker.

Uh -huh.

What? Well, I mean, it's kind of an
unusual drink for a woman.

Well, I think you'll find I'm an unusual
woman.

Bartender? Be there in a minute. Yeah.

So, um, what group did you say your
sister was in?

Um, something called the One -to -One
Club.

The One... Wait, that's my group.

Oh. Oh. Yeah. Well, that would mean you
were single.

Uh, entirely.

Divorced. Ah.

My wife and I couldn't agree on very
many things.

You? Divorced, too.

Our problem was we were a little too
much alike.

Listen,

I hope you don't think this is forward,
but I would really like to take you out

sometime.

Well, I'd like that.

What about tonight?

Tonight? Well, what about your sister?

Well, someone else is joining us. I'm
sure she'll understand.

And I can call her later.

Great. Where should we go?

I don't know.

Dinner? A Mets game? Whatever you like.
Mets game?

I'd love it.

You don't find very many women
interested in ball games.

I think you'll find I'm full of
surprises.

Let us have a little something for your
baby.

Oh, thank you, Ralph.

It's the same book that my mother read
to me every night when I was a baby.

In cold blood.

Thank you, dear.

I'll treasure it.

Hi, everyone.

Isn't this a beautiful evening?

There's nothing like New York in
springtime, is there?

certainly seem to be in a good mood.

Top of the world.

Oh, I'm sorry I missed last week. I
just, uh, well, I just couldn't make it.

Well, John, that's your tough luck
because we heard the weirdest story we

heard yet from this new chick who just
joined the group last week.

You mean Sylvia?

Do you know her?

Uh, well, not exactly.

I'm dating her sister.

How long have you known Sylvia's sister?

Only this last week.

Met her at the bar around the corner. I
was waiting for you guys, and Margo was

there waiting for Sylvia.

Margo? Yeah.

Sylvia's sister?

Oh, yeah. Boy, I'm telling you, I've
never met anyone like this.

I don't doubt it.

It's not because, you know, it's just a
week, but I'm telling you, I think this

woman can really be the one. I mean,
she's a perfect woman.

You know, I mean, she's not just
beautiful and witty. I mean, she's got

mean, she just makes me feel very
comfortable. And she's just not like

women, is what I believe.

More like one of the guys.

I mean, she's got everything.

And then some.

Probably more to Margot than meets the
eye.

Yeah, well, I guess you could say that,
yes.

Why are we laughing?

Why are you all looking at me like this?

John, haven't you noticed anything,
well, anything different about Margot?

Different? Yeah, like she needs a shave.

What?

Sadly, Sylvia split with her husband
because he liked to dress up in women's

clothes. So, her husband's a
transvestite. What's that got to do with

sister? John, what we're trying to tell
you is that Margot and Sylvia aren't

really sisters.

That's because Margot is really... A
man.

What?

Margot is actually Sylvia's husband.

No. Get out.

Margot is Sylvia... No.

Get out.

You see, when he's all dressed up, he
and Sylvia just say they're sisters.

Oh, no, no. This is impossible. She's
the most feminine woman I've ever met.

Oh, come on. If there was anything
remotely wrong with it, don't you think

would have noticed something at the ball
game, at the car show, at the fights?

on what you've already done.

And how much you enjoyed it.

Would you please?

Isn't anyone going to help me here?

I'll do anything, John. You just say the
word. But could you explain what

everybody's laughing about? They're
laughing at me, Ralph. Because all week

been dating a woman who's really a man.

That was just a very entertaining side
effect.

This is so hard to believe.

I mean, here, look at this.

We took some pictures at one of those
silly machines.

Can you tell? I mean, does that look
like a man to you?

Which one are we talking about?

Oh.

Oh, John, couldn't you tell that that's
a wig?

It is.

No, I can't. He's coming over directly
from another appointment.

He's probably having his legs waxed.

Yeah, yeah, it's all very funny to you
people, but I'm the one that has to go

home and deal with it. So you'll
understand it, but I don't think it's

funny. You're absolutely right, dear. On
behalf of the whole group, I apologize.

We know how difficult tonight's going to
be.

Just don't let your anger overwhelm your
compassion.

After all, you mustn't... condemn a man
until you've walked a mile in his pump.

Do you think we were too rough on him?
Are you kidding me? We did the man a

favor.

Tonight could have been the night he
found out for himself.

husband will take it. Well, if he's
after a woman, I think he is.

He's gonna take it like a man.

Oh, it really isn't funny, Kurt. He
looks to be a man of some size. What

if he becomes agitated, even physical?

Do you think he might?

Sorry I'm late.

Uh, sweetheart, excuse me. Um, this
gender bender you were married to.

Does he have a temper?

Oh, a terrible temper.

Once on the subway, some masher snapped
his bra strap and Frank beat him with

his shoulder bag.

That's it. I'm out of here.

There's no way I'm going to let Harry
Mary kick John's butt.

John told us he was dating your sister.

Look.

That's not Frank.

It's not?

No. This is my sister Margo.

Wait a minute.

Wait a minute. Are you saying that that
really is your sister?

Yes. Well, then why is she wearing a
wig?

Well, she sometimes does that when she
can't get to the hairdresser.

I don't know how you could think this
was Frank.

It just goes... to show how little you
people understand our situation.

My Frank wouldn't be caught dead in a
dress like this.

Oh, no.

John.

Oh, that's right.

Oh, he's about to tell this beautiful
woman that she's really a man.

Well, it's probably for the best.

She's bound to find out sooner or later.

I'm glad you're here. I'm so glad I'm
here, too, John.

Now, listen, Margo. There's something I
really have to... I

have to... This has been the worst day
of my life.

Anything that could possibly go wrong
did.

Family, job, everything.

Yeah, well... I feel stretched so thin.

One more unpleasant thing, and I think
I'll snap.

hold yourself.

You know what I really need right now?

Someone to hold my hand. Ah, now, look,
I'm not holding your hand.

No, I'm doing it. I'm going to do it.

No,

I'm really going to do it.

I hate to see a grown person cry.

There you go. There you go.

How's that?

How's that?

I'm so glad I came over here tonight,
John.

Listen, Margo. I feel so safe in your
arms. Margo, listen, I... Let's not

John. No, no, we have to talk.

What are you doing? I can't kiss you.

John, what are you talking about?

What am I talking about? This is what
I'm talking about.

I can kiss you. You're a woman.

You thought I was a man.

Me? Who?

No, what?

Yeah, okay.

But the best looking man I've ever
dated. You thought...

No, no, listen, I can explain. It's very
simple. I'm getting out of here. No,

no, no, Margot, please, please, I beg
you. No, no, no. Goodbye.

Please, please, please.

It's the best thing that's ever happened
to me.

Can't we salvage this?

I mean, I want you. I want you more than
anyone I've ever known.

Why don't we go away someplace together,
huh?

I'll take you anywhere you want to go.
What do you say, huh?

Let's go to Paris.

How about Paris? I'll take my whole life
savings up and fly you there, okay?

We'll make love till Bastille Day.

All right, all right.

Thank God I got here in the nick of
time. Come on, pal. You're out of here.

Forget him, John. He's no good for you.
Let him go.

John, you need help.

Come on.

Come on. Come on.

Sit down, John. Sit down.

You've had a humiliating experience,
John.

But because I'm your friend, I'm going
to be here for you. I'm going to be here

all night, John, if that's what it takes
to help you forget about him.

Say this, that Margo sure doesn't walk
like a man.

It's an all -new L .A. Law.

And Saturday, if you've got the
doldrums, we've got the cure.

NBC's comedy lineup, starting with One
of the Boys. And the deacon is

on Amen.

Nothing that a little tender, loving
care couldn't cure.

Then all you Weight Watchers shape up
for the laughter on The Golden Girl,
