All language subtitles for Silver Spoons s02e08 Happy Birthday

Here we are, face to face, looking for
the silver spoon.

Hoping to find we're two of a kind.

Making it go, making it grow. Together,
we're going to find our

way.

Together, taking the time each day.

To learn all about those things you just
can't buy.

Two silver spoons together.

You and I together.

We're gonna find our way.

You and I together.

We're gonna find our way.

You and I together.

forget my birthday.

What can I say? Perhaps the poor human
has defective memory banks.

It's not just any birthday food.

It's my very first birthday with my dad.

Greetings and felicitations.

You don't have to get all mushy now.

By the way, nice hat.

Thank you.

Happy birthday, Richard.

Thanks, Dexter.

Well, can I blow out my candles?

Don't worry. Ho, ho, ho, ho. First, I
want to give you your birthday card.

Son,

13 years ago today, your life began.

A little less than a year ago, you came
to live with me.

And my life began.

I love you very much.

Me too, Dad.

Phoebe, a drumroll, if you please!

Well, let's just say I cared enough to
set off the very best.

Edward, I am deeply impressed.

Was it my creativity?

No, your spelling. It is correct.

Right, Father.

Gentlemen, gentlemen, let's keep this a
festive occasion.

Let me share a little anecdote with you.

It seems that Richard Nixon and Gerald
Ford got into an elevator together.

Kate, the party's just begun.

My grandfather and father are fighting
already.

It's my first birthday with them.

I want everyone to get along.

I'll tell you what.

They won't fight as long as you and I
remain a couple of chuckle puppies.

Hey, Pat.

If you continue to aggravate me, I shall
remove your insides, fill you with

sardines, and sell you as the largest
tin can in the world.

Candles, son. You're now officially a
teenager.

Yep. From here on out, the living's
fast.

Hugh Richard, from the accounting firm
of Duffin, O 'Hara, Mobutu, and

A company tag?

Well, technically, this is a business
deduction.

Thank you, sir.

Hey, look, a book.

101 uses for a dead cat.

Her name is Fluffy. Oh, don't let Fluffy
read it.

Dexter. Kate.

Chuckle puppies.

Oh, why don't you open my gift net?
Right.

Here we go.

To the

adorable, intelligent, and compassionate
Ricky.

Kate, this is embarrassing.

It is?

Oh, wow.

Oh, wow.

Oh, wow.

Congratulations, you struck wow.

It's a radio -controlled airplane.

Oh, wow.

It's mine.

Thanks, Kate. Oh, you're welcome, Rick.

Richard, this is for you.

skateboard I showed you. It was on sale
last week.

Richard, very few traffic accidents are
linked with briefcases.

All right, time for my present, son.

Jenkins!

He gets a butler?

Gosh. Come on, grandfather, try it.

Richard, avoid these githmos. They are
habit -forming and lead to arrested

development.

Meaning, I suppose, that I never grew
up.

Beautifully stated.

Here we go, it's starting. The king has
once again publicly...

his son to be a royal disappointment.

I have to run.

Jackie O is throwing a supper party and
she always has the best baklava.

Goodbye, Richard.

Goodbye, sir.

Yes, yes.

Let's have some cake, okay?

Father, I would appreciate it if you
withhold your gratuitous insults.

I merely hinted.

that you're perhaps not altogether
mature.

And your reaction to my comments amply
justified that observation.

That does it for... Time out.

Look, I just decided to tell you what my
wish was when I blew out my candles.

I wish that we could only just have one
night together without arguing.

So now it's up to you guys.

fight and tear each other apart?

Or are you going to help make a kid's
birthday wish come true?

I'll ask him. I am not the one who
starts them.

Edward, may I have a word with you,
please?

Excuse us.

Edward, Ricky wants us all to get along.
I know, Kate, but my father... Now, I

understand your father gets you crazy.

But there are ways to manage that anger.

For instance?

Well, one way is to take a nice deep
breath from the diaphragm.

Kate, I don't think that's going to work
for me.

Although it looks great on you.

If that doesn't work, then the next step
is you just smile politely, say, I'll

be right back, and then just walk away.

I don't know.

What else you got?

Well, if that isn't enough, then you
whistle.

You can't walk, whistle, and be angry at
the same time.

Now, come on.

of such up guys.

Believe me, Richard, it is not my
intention to insult your father.

In fact, I am trying to help him by
pointing out those areas in which his

behavior can be improved.

You should emerge from this process a
better man.

Better? Meaning more like you?

God willing, yes.

I've decided to try to honor your
request. I'm going to do everything in

power to get along with him.

As will I with him.

I just hope he doesn't muck it up.

See, technically, Grandfather, that's
already a violation of the deal.

I agree.

And I apologize.

Oh. That's okay.

No big deal.

Good, good. That's the way.

Now let's all shake on it, okay?

Okay.

Come on, you too, Kate.

This

is

going to be the best birthday... of my
life.

Look at us.

Is this great or what?

Grandfather, father, son, and Kate.

This is exactly what I wanted.

All of us getting along, just happy to
be together.

in my life, I feel like one of the
Waltons.

Did you hear me at fuselage, Rick Boy?

Sure thing, Dad Bob.

You know, happiness was pretty much par
for the course in the Summers family.

Really? Yeah.

We had an old clapboard house with a
little white picket fence on Apple Tree

Lane.

You had apple trees?

Oh, hundreds of them. We used to share
them with our neighbors. Oh, Dale and

Dode Soddy.

Every fall, Grams would always bake the
very best apple pies.

And believe you me, there is nothing
like a hot slice of homemade pie and a

glass of ice -cold milk.

to pre -thread a screw before I attach
it.

Yes.

But may I point out to you that the work
has already been done.

Oh.

Thanks.

That's a big help.

All right, then I'll just, uh, let's
see, assemble the rudder. Where is it?

Okay.

What?

Edward, do you remember when you broke
off the head of my Lalique Swan?

He tried to glue it together and thought
I wouldn't notice.

But it was impossible not to notice
because he glued the head on back.

gave you two live swans once?

You'll never guess what I named them.
Dale and Doad Sawdler.

No, Doad.

Snuggles and Ruffles.

Gramps and I would go rowing on the lake
behind the house.

Oh, and Snuggles and Ruffles, they
always trailed behind.

That's really great, Kate.

No.

You are forgetting Slabber.

Slabber was hardly a pet.

You should have been proud that he could
do something besides fetch.

What else could he do?

Slabber was our killer guard dog.

And he was very devoted to me. Well, he
bit me.

It was your own fault. I told you over
and over, don't look at him funny.

same time. Watch!

I forgot about grumpy.

That is being negative, Edward.

Now, I know it sounds corny, but my
grams always used to say the optimist

the donut and the pessimist sees the
hole.

I don't want you to take this the wrong
way, Kate, but your grams can take her

donuts and her pie and your grams and
take a flying...

glass of ice -cold milk.

Father, I have decided once again to try
to honor my son's birthday wishes.

Edward, why are you picking on my
family? I'm not picking on your family,

Guys, would you still love me if my eyes
looked like this?

All I've been trying to do is share a
few experiences with you. A few...

I'm glad you have loving memories.

I'm thrilled you have loving memories.

But there are only so many loving
memories I can take.

Hey, look.

I'm a blonde Mr.

T.

You know what you are?

You're jealous.

Of what?

Of the fact that I really enjoyed my
childhood.

Why not? You lived on Swan Lake.

Just a hot skip and a sawdust from
never, never...

Unnecessary roughness.

You just stay out of this, Father. I
can't juggle more than two arguments at

once. Juggle? That's a great idea.

Stop it!

Couldn't do it, could you?

And you promised you'd do it.

Sure, you faked it for a few minutes.

But then you went right on fighting with
each other.

Well, I don't like it.

Why don't we play a game? Oh, good.
Okay? Sure.

Let's play a word game. Oh, love it.
I'll start.

Okay. All right.

My Uncle Dave, he owns a grocery store.

And he sells something in it that begins
with the letter G.

Great. Well, nice try, but wrong.

Gooseberries.

Graham's Graham Cracker Crust.

That's a shock.

Oh, come on, Kate. Wait a minute. It was
not.
