All language subtitles for Diffrent Strokes s08e17 The Big Bribe

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 me.

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

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

world.

We'll be right back.

Yep, good old hamburger hanger.

Yep, yep, yep.

Ice cover every day just like you guys.

A lot of memories here.

I have a feeling your brother's about to
bore us.

Count on it.

You know, every booth here has a special
meaning to me.

I was in that one when I first kissed a
girl.

Yeah, and isn't that the one you landed
in when her boyfriend decked you?

No, it was that one over there.

My lucky boots.

Good old number 18.

This talk of vinyl's been pretty good to
me.

Gentlemen, when it comes to attracting
women, this is the lightning rod of

Well, that's strange. When Arnold sits
in it, the lightning rod becomes a roach

motel.

Oh, man.

Here it goes.

My insides are turning cartwheels.

My head's on the ceiling.

And my stomach's doing a rumba.

The food here does that to me, too.

No, what was that black girl over there,
Phyllis?

Arnold's crazy about her.

Oh, yeah, I know her older sister, Ann.

Yeah, Phyllis isn't bad. Why don't you
ask her out, Arnold?

Are you kidding?

For starters, she doesn't even know me.

And she only dates guys who are
athletic, brainy, and good -looking.

Which makes Arnold zero for three.

Shut up, or I'll tell everyone you have
Muppet underwear.

Look, Arnold, I will introduce you to
her. I know her older sister. Come on.

I don't know, Willis.

Arnold, she's only flesh and blood.

Yeah, but all that flesh and blood is in
the right places.

Arnold, why don't you listen to Willis?
Go for it. Take a chance.

Well, why not? What do I got to lose?

Your dignity.

Thank you, Charlie.

Hey, Arnold.

Have you figured out what you're going
to say to her yet?

I have to talk to her?

Come on.

Hi, Ann.

Hey, look who's back from college.
Willis Jackson.

How are you? Good.

You know my sister, Phyllis? Hi.

Hi. This is my brother, Arnold.

Hi, Arnold.

Hi.

Phyllis, do you know you and Arnold both
go to Buchanan High?

You know, I probably passed you in the
halls a million times and never noticed

you. Can't be true.

What was that, Arnold?

What he was trying to say was, hey,
baby, how about me and you making up for

lost time?

Smooth talk does run in the family,
Phyllis. That's not what it sounded like

me.

No, I think what Arnold was trying to
say was... Arnold!

Oh, man.

Willis, something tells me you're trying
to fix up your brother with Phyllis.

Something tells me you're right.

Something else tells me I just made my
little brother feel awfully stupid.

Listen, Willis, that's really nice of
you, but I don't even know Arnold.

But you guys will have a great time.
You'd like them. You have a lot in

What do you like to do?

Go to the opera.

The opera.

Amazing. Arnold loves the opera.

You know, he's even got a pinup of
Beverly Sills over his bed.

Willis, what you're trying to do is
really sweet. And Arnold, I mean, he

like a nice guy, but don't you think
you're pushing things a little bit?

I'm not pushing.

You like big weddings?

The truth, fellas, what do you really
like to do?

I don't know. I guess the usual stuff.

Movies, concerts.

Oh, concerts.

Like which groups?

Mostly new wave groups. You know, like
the Rocco, Super Flash, Rainbow

Rainbow Lobotomy?

You're kidding.

I know, I know. They're Arnold's
favorite too, right?

No, no.

My roommate's father is Rainbow's
manager.

Really? What did I lie to you?

Yeah.

Very funny.

No, I'm telling the truth, so help me.

My roommate even offered me free tickets
for this weekend.

VIP seating, front row, center.

You want them?

I'd die for seats like that. I'd do
anything.

Will you go with Arnold?

Look, I feel strange going out with
someone just for free tickets.

I can get backstage passes, too.

Backstage passes?

Come to think of it, I kind of like
Arnold.

Come on, for rainbow lobotomy, let me
bend the rules a little bit.

All right, all right.

Tell him to dress rainbow.

Rainbow, great.

Arnold's going to be thrilled. Hey, and
don't forget, not a word of this to him.

Don't worry, I won't say a word.

Hey, now, what would it take to get you
to go out with me?

You could try asking nicely.

I never thought of that.

The Iron Ring, Team Luda, John the
Bullet Field.

Yeah, my nickname is the Bullet.

I got that name living that street life,
being through the things that I done

been through.

What's your WD -40?

I love all of who I am. But mom says
being overweight can lead to

serious health problems. I can't do
that.

But thanks to my mom and the BET Summer
Camp for Girls contest, that's something

I can do about getting healthy.

The BET Foundation wants to send up to
150 girls to camp to get fit, be

and have fun. If your girl is 10 to 12
and ready to get fit, visit a healthybet

.com and tell us why she should be
selected.

Small changes, I can definitely do that.

It's not that funny.

It is.

I know it looks silly, but Phyllis said
you have to dress like this for the

concert. Who's playing, Don King?

It's Rainbow Lobotomy.

Hey, who are you and what have you done
with Arnold Jackson?

Dad, he's just for the concert. Get with
it.

Hey, I'm plenty with it.

When I was young, we used to do the same
kind of crazy things when we went to

see Sinatra. We all wore bow ties.

Come on, Sam. Time to go to bed.

Oh, but can I make fun of Arnold for
five more minutes?

Cool it, Sam. I'm going to stick my hair
on you.

Well, I guess this isn't the last time
to see Arnold do something stupid.

Have fun, Arnold.

You know, Willis...

I can't figure why a gorgeous girl like
Phyllis wants to invite me out.

Come on, Arnold. Cut the modesty act.

She obviously liked talking to you the
other day.

But I didn't talk.

I just stood there listening to my
stomach doing a rumba again.

Maybe she likes a strong silent type.

Or maybe it's your presence.

What presence? I ran away.

Hey, you played hard to get.

I've been playing hard to get for years.

I know, it's hard for me to get why
girls bother with you.

You know, Willis, I just still can't
figure this out.

Arnold, nothing that girls do ever make
any sense.

It's part of their ambience.

That and their legs.

So come on, just relax and be yourself.

Sure, be myself.

If I can't be myself, I'm going to be
Bozo.

Dad, it's only a little matchmaking.

No, no, it is not matchmaking. It's a
bribe.

Now, how could you be so insensitive to
your brother's feelings? Oh, come on,

Dad. He'll have a good time with her and
won't even know about the tickets.

That'll only make matters worse.

Don't you see, all you're going to do is
build up false hopes for Arnold.

What's going to happen the next time he
asks her out and she says no? He will be

devastated.

Yeah, I guess you're right. I didn't
think about that.

I guess you didn't.

Willis. I know you meant well, but
Arnold must be told the truth before he

hurt. It's not going to be easy, Dad.

He's going to take this really hard.

Hey!

Yeah! Hi, Arnold.

Hi, Dad.

Hi, Arnold. So be careful how you tell
him, Dad.

Well, you created this mess. You move
the talking.

Dad, it was a blast.

Dad, you know I can't be trusted. Look
at how screwed things up already.

How'd it go? It go good?

Oh, Dad.

It was absolutely incredible.

We danced so hard, I even hurt my hair.

Well, I'm glad you liked the concert.

Are you kidding?

Rainbow Lobotomy stunk.

They stunk so bad, the lead singer went
home early.

But I had a great time with Phyllis.

Oh, really?

Incredible.

You know, it was really nice of her to
invite me. I bet she went through a lot

of trouble to get those tickets.

Uh...

I can imagine.

Hey, check out these pictures we took in
the photo booth.

Phyllis is so cute.

She said, Arnold, you couldn't take a
bad picture even if you wanted to.

What can I say? The girl is in love with
me.

Uh, Arnold, look.

You have to be careful not to jump into
these things too quickly.

Oh, don't worry, Dad. I think I know a
good thing when I see it. And that's

She did ask me out.

True, Arnold, but you don't want to
waste all your time just on one girl.

I mean, you got to spread your wealth
around.

I've got wealth in 12 eastern states.

Well, I've already found the right
person, and I owe it all to you, Willis.

you don't.

Hey, you know what I'm going to do?

I'm going to surprise Willis.

I'm going to have this picture of me
enlarged and give it to her at our next

date.

Start talking.

Look,

sit down for just a minute.

Sure, Dad. What is it?

Well, I think there's something that we
should discuss before you ask Phyllis to

go out again.

It's too late, Dad. She already asked me
out again.

You're kidding.

It's like you said, Willis. Who can
figure women?

Anyway, what did you want to say to me,
Dad?

Uh... Well, it's just that, uh... I'm
delighted that everything's working out

well with you and Phyllis.

Thanks, Dad.

So is she.

Phyllis, are you sure you don't mind
seeing this movie again? I mean, it's

fourth time.

Look, Ann, I've said I've been to it
four times, but that doesn't mean I've

it four times.

And I don't plan on seeing it again.

Well, you're going to be seeing it this
time.

You know,

it's too bad Arnold and Phyllis didn't
want to come with us. I know. They would

have had fun.

I'm still surprised that Phyllis went
out with Arnold.

Well, if you remember, it took my charms
and talent as a matchmaker.

Yeah, and to bribe a free concert
ticket.

Pretty sneaky, Willis. Yeah. But I guess
it makes a difference how they got

together. Of course. No one had to bribe
you with any free concert tickets to

take me out.

Oh, no.

Come on, I don't want to miss the
beginning of the movie.

Hey, I got a better idea. Why don't we
save money and sit on the couch and not

watch the movie?

Well, it's out.

This is you after an energy drink.

Unfortunately, so is this.

Why do energy drinks make you crash?

One minute you're wired up. The next,
you feel worse than before.

caffeine.

grogginess behind and fill through your

without feeling jittery, tense, or, you
know.

That's because 5 -Hour Energy contains a
powerful blend of B vitamins for energy

and amino acids for focus, alertness,
and better mood.

There's zero sugar.

About as much caffeine as a cup of
coffee and only four calories.

The two -ounce shot takes just seconds
to drink, and in minutes you're feeling

bright, awake, and productive.

And that feeling lasts for hours.

So if your energy drink makes you crash,
switch to 5 -Hour Energy.

Hey, Arnold, what a great move, you
know?

It really makes a difference when you
face the screen.

Well, let's just don't talk to me.

What's wrong, Arnold?

Well, she made me look like a fool.

You can't fill us with tickets to take
me out.

Who ever said that is a liar?

Ann said it.

Well, I think what she meant was, um...
I know what she meant. I heard her say

it.

Look, Arnold, you can't believe what
women say when they're around me.

I mean, their brains turn to mush.

Look, Arnold, it's not how it sounds.

Well, it's just leave me alone.

Arnold, all I was trying to do was help.

Look at everything that turned out with
you and Phyllis. Oh, yeah, it worked out

good for you.

You got by with just some free tickets.

Phyllis could have held out for a fur
coat.

Let me tell you something. Arnold
Jackson doesn't need it, you big creep.

Look, Arnold, all I was trying to do was
help you out with your date.

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, what is all
this commotion?

It's a fight, Mr. D. I don't ever want
anything to do with my brother ever

again. Why?

What'd I do?

Not you, Sam.

Oh, good.

But I better get out of here before you
find something.

Now, Arnold, would you please explain to
me what's going on here?

All this stuff with Phyllis was a big
joke.

Well, it's paid her to take me out.

He's got to be the biggest jerk I've
ever met in my life.

Uh, Arnold.

Dad, I... I can't believe him. Not only
did he do that, he was willing to let it

go on.

Listen, son, I know what Willis did.

You knew, and you didn't say anything
either?

I'm sorry, Arnold.

I just can't believe this.

How could you do that?

I saw how happy you were, and I just
didn't want to burst your bubble.

Phyllis really does like you. Oh, don't
give me that garbage. I fell for that

once before.

She really does. She wants to keep going
out with you, right?

Well, how much you paying for that?

Nothing. Oh, a bargain.

Look, Arnold, I understand how you feel.

You don't understand how I feel. If you
did, you wouldn't have done this.

do this to me?

Sorry, Dad.

Arnold,

something's wrong with old number 18.

I've been sitting here for three hours.

Not a single girl's come over to talk to
me.

Once started to, but then she put on her
glasses.

I don't feel like hearing any more about
this booth.

Oh, sure. What do you care? See, you
have Phyllis, but no, I'm all alone.

It's just me and my turtle, Fred.

Charlie, I do have to worry.

Me and Phyllis? Oh, we're history.

Really? What happened, Arnold?

I guess we just weren't made for each
other.

Man, Arnold, for a girl like that, I'd
change.

I'd grow more arms, ears, backs, necks.

Anything she wanted.

Charlie, there are some things that are
just impossible to change.

Not today, Arnold. They're making
miracles with plastic surgery.

You know, my family paid a lot of money,
and now they let my little sister sit

at the dinner table.

And never mind, Charlie. I'm just a
bachelor now, just like you. No, Arnold,

have a turtle.

working again. A girl finally stopped
here.

Uh, Charlie, do you mind? We have some
very, very personal things to talk

Oh, no, not at all. So, if you'll have a
seat.

Charlie, goodbye.

No, Arnold, you better stick around.

Phyllis may want to talk to you, too.

Charlie, leave.

Is it okay if I sit down?

I don't care.

Arnold, Ann told me you found out.

Look, I'm always sorry about this whole
thing.

You should be.

It was a terrible, low -down, rotten
thing you did to me.

It was degrading and humiliating.

You don't have to say any more, Arnold,
because I feel awful about what I did.

But don't you understand?

I still want to keep going out with you.

Why? You trying to buy a condo?

What I did was wrong.

But if I hadn't done it, I never would
have met you and found out what a

terrific guy you were.

You're not just saying that.

I really mean it.

And I really mean it when I say I want
to keep going out with you.

And it's really important that you
believe me.

Well, okay.

I believe you.

Thanks.

I really believe you.

But keep convincing me.

Mr. D? Yeah? Can I dump all my computer
stocks and invest in fast foods?

Sure, Sam, but why?

Because I want to go to a stockholders
meeting with Ronald McDonald.

Yeah, is Arnold home yet? Not yet,
Willard.

Oh, well, I wish to get back so I can
explain to him.

Maybe he wouldn't be so hurt.

Look, Willis, I feel as badly as you do,
but we're just going to have to rely on

time.

Arnold, how about a movie tonight?

Willis was just telling us about one
that's terrific. He's already seen it

times. I've got a date tonight.

Oh, who's the fox, Arnold?

Phyllis.

Phyllis! How many tickets did it cost
you?

I'm just thrilled.

You're great news. Good for you, son.
Looks like Dr.

Love scores again.

See? Everything worked out great.

Oh, it worked out fine with Phyllis.

I still haven't forgotten what you guys
did to me.

Now, Arnold, you know that we were not
trying to hurt you.

They really weren't, Arnold.

You've got to believe me.

I'm your friend.

Obviously not. You're taking their side.

No, Arnold. Just butt out, Sam.

What can we do to make you understand?

We try to take him out to dinner, invite
him to a movie, everything.

Oh, bribing. That's right up your alley,
Wolf.

Now, Arnold, really, I don't think
that... Dad, just forget it.

I don't even want to hear it.

Hold it right there, young man.

We've heard just about enough out of
you.

Now, I know that what we did hurt you.

But we thought we were doing it for your
benefit, and you know that.

Now, you can disregard that if you want
to. That's your business.

We said we're sorry.

But you are not about to cop an attitude
and make everybody else's life around

here a living hell.

Do you understand that?

Yes, sir.

Maybe you better just go to your room
and think about that.

Oh, Dad.

Wait a minute.

I don't want it to be this way.

Neither do I.

I'm really sorry. I guess I did carry
this too far.

But it just hurts so bad.

Coming from you guys, I mean, you're my
family.

I know, son.

Dad, I feel pretty lousy about all of
this.

That's okay.

You don't have to be too hard on
yourself.

I know.

I just wish there was some way I could
make it up to you guys.

That is not necessary.

Well, I think it is.

I've got yelled at for no reason.

So I want a new G .I. Joe doll, more
time to play with my country and western

albums, and I want the good side of the
room.

And for you two guys with girls, I want
to listen in, okay?

And you know what's the best thing I
want to do?

You know what you need to go on and do
is write your phone number down.

And while you're at it, put your
mother's address down.

Why? Because I want to send her a thank
you card for creating that body.

My man is in rare form tonight.

Chicks. Doug, I'll bet you meet a lot of
chicks being a juggler. Oh, yeah.

Women love a juggling man.

What?

You are the man!

What can I say? You know what I'm
saying? It's rough being a love guy, but

somebody got to do it.

Please, you guys are out of control.

You'll hit on any... Hey, not anything.

And the Player Hater Award goes to
Nicolette Banjo.

Nicolette, Eddie and I both tried the
commitment thing. And what happened to

Eddie? Man, we got burned. We got fried.

Wallet was empty.

As a result, neither one of us are
interested in serious relationships

now. I mean, it's like you can spread
the wealth around to the female species.

You know, it's kind of like giving back
to the community.

That's right.

Hey, hey, will you guys teach me how
to... Mack?

Bruh, this way.

Look, macking is not a game, it's an art
form, man. It takes focus.

You gotta make that woman feel like
she's the only lady on the planet.

Well, what if that doesn't work for me?
Sure, picture me.

how women can be so stupid. I mean,
falling for those same old tired, corny

lines.

If you give me your number, I'd die a
happy man.

Okay.

What? Can't I grant a dying man his last
wish?

May I have a champagne cocktail?

Sure, coming right up.

Hey, uh, Doc!

Hey, you know, I'll take care of that
big guy.

Make it extra sweet, please. Extra
sweet? All right, well, the only problem

foresee with that is it won't be sweet
until your lips touch the glass.

Tracy Burke, and I'm in the book.

Malcolm McGee, and I'm in love.

You are the man!

It's an inflected funny bone.

It's just gonna leave you alone while
you're sitting inside your home.
