All language subtitles for Silver Spoons s05e11 Kate Lassos a Longhorn

We're going to find our way

together, taking the time each day.

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

Don't fill the holes together.

Okay, insert A into B.

Got it. Now place Captain C onto B.

Easy.

Insert the three -quarter -inch cross
brace onto the actual retainer bracket,

securing it with a number seven set
screw, making sure it does not protrude

beyond the sprocket cap assembly.

What happened to A and B?

I don't know, Dad. It's your toy. You
designed it.

When it says here, it's so simple, a
child can do it.

That's it.

We need a child.

Hi, guys.

Hiya. Have I got good news.

We're going to be doing business with
Billy Dawson.

Who's Billy Dawson?

The owner of Toy -O -Rama of Texas.
Yeah, only the biggest chain of toy

in the country.

Edward, I think I landed the account.

You're kidding. We've never been able to
get our toys into his store.

Why? Did you show him this one?

Yeah, anyway, I invited Billy and his
wife to dinner.

Tonight? Uh -huh.

Dexter's bringing the contract, so if I
can close the deal, old Billy will sign

them right here. Well, if I can do
anything to help.

Oh, thanks. You can come in the kitchen
and help Marie peel potatoes.

Hi,

Rick. Hi, Alfonso. Boy, do I have
something to show you.

Yeah, what is it? You won't believe it.

Uh, that, uh, that, uh... Repeat after
me.

Make.

Yeah, repeat after me.

Goodbye.

Is Kate home?

Yeah. Well, let's go upstairs and talk.
Come on.

Alfonso, where are you going with that
thing?

Alfonso, he's a ball constrictor and his
name is Alvin.

Alvin? Well, how do you know it's a he?

He tried to make out with your garden
hose.

The kid who gave me the ball told me it
was a male.

Why is he giving it away?

I think it had something to do with his
father's heart attack.

Well, anyway, I want you to keep Alvin
until I talk to my Uncle Dexter and to

let me keep him. Are you crazy?

Your parents are cool about things like
this.

My Uncle Dexter faints when he watches
Wild Kingdom.

No way.

I promise, I'll pick Alan up tomorrow.

Okay, okay, but look, you're gonna owe
me.

Terrific. And if he gets hungry, he
likes mice.

You'd better get used to peanut butter
and jelly.

How did the table look?

Looks fine, but I don't know why we
can't just take them out to a nice

restaurant. Oh, well, I heard they were
down home pizza. and I think there'll be

more at home with down -home cooking.

Now, you sure that table looks all
right?

Looks down -home to me.

Honey, relax. Come on, you've been
wooing Dawson's assistant for months.

Oh, yeah, well, that doesn't count.

Dawson is the one who closes the deal. I
mean, he's the one who'll say yay or

nay. Well, he's from Texas. He'll
probably say yep or nope.

You want the white cheese or the orange
cheese?

I'll serve both.

Okay, it's your money.

Of course, if it were up to me, I'd
serve the white cheese.

This orange stuff, you're going to have
to serve with banaca.

Oh, my, they're here.

Let's go get them.

Oh, Edward, this is my deal. Just
promise that you'll let me handle it.

Hey, you hooked him, you reel him in.

Mr. Dawson, welcome.

And this must be Mrs. Dawson. That's the
little woman, all right.

Say hello to Kate, Dotty.

Hello. Hi.

Please, come on in.

Here, let me.

Here you go, young fella.

Thanks for the ride.

Mr. Dawson, Dexter isn't the chauffeur.
He's our company treasurer.

Oh, sorry.

No offense. None taken.

Here are the papers, Kate, the
contracts. I think you'll find them all

Oh, aren't you staying for dinner?

Oh, I'd like to, but I have some work
back at the office. I'll be back to pick

up the Dawson. Oh, good. Well, you can
have coffee with us then.

Oh, I will. In the meantime, I'll see if
I can pick up a few more fares.

Ciao, y 'all.

Please, come on in and make yourself at
home.

This is my husband, Edward.

Mrs. Dawson. Mr. Dawson. Oh, let's knock
out the formality. It's Billy.

Always been Billy. Right, Daddy?

Yes, everyone calls you Billy, Billy.

Okay, Billy, Billy.

Uh -huh, that's a good one, Eddie.

I must say, it is a pleasure to meet the
man behind Eddie Toys.

Well, it's... Actually, I couldn't do
anything without Kate here. I just

developed the toys. She does everything
else.

Well, like they say, behind every
successful man, there's a little woman.

Billy always gives credit where credit
is due.

Yes, sir. And this missus of yours?

As cute as the back end of an armadillo.

I've told her that many times.

Come on in. Can I get you a drink? Sure
can.

Bourbon, if you have it. Ah, Texas milk,
huh?

That's another good one, Eddie.

You are on a roll.

Get a little milk for you, too, Dotty.
No, Dotty doesn't drink bourbon. Makes

her barf.

Right, Dotty?

Well, yes.

How about some wine?

No, get her one of those diet drinks.

She's been having a little trouble
getting over the fence lately.

Oh, really?

Like I'm always telling her, drinking is
a man's job. She's got to stick to

doing what women do best, like having
babies.

Baloney.

Or maybe it's ham. You know it's hard to
tell.

Okay, Alvin, I'll see you later.

Oh, no.

Oh, no.

Oh, Alvin, come on. Don't do this to me.

Here, boy.

Come on, Alvin. It's supper time.

Please. Come on. I'll do anything.

I'll even find you a mouth.

Oh, Alvin.

Alvin!

Hey, now, this is some place you got
here. Oh, we like it.

He's a couple of buffalo heads and an
antler or two.

Don't you think, Daddy?

Oh, I think it's fine.

Oh, she's just being nice.

She loves being nice.

That's nice.

Tell me, how did you two meet?

Oh, it was a little cattle auction back
about 15 years ago. I looked out over a

corral of heifers, and whoo! There she
was.

Oh, Billy!

Yes, sir?

This little heifer has made me one happy
bull.

That's right. Keep smiling.

Uh, Rick.

This is Mr. Dawson. Hello, Mr. Dawson.
Call me Billy. This is my wife, Dottie.

Yeah, pleased to meet you.

The kid's got the attention span of a
horsefly.

Why don't we sit down?

No, don't. I think I've misplaced one of
my darts.

You were playing darts in the living
room?

Did I say darts?

Rick, you want to tell us what you're
doing?

No.

Kids.

Well, you folks are in for quite a
treat, you know.

Kate's a gourmet chef.

Yeah, I'm a meat and potatoes man
myself.

Right, Daddy?

Well, I figured that. That's why I made
Chateaubriand or Pomme de Terre

Lyonnaise. What's that?

French.

Oops.

Sorry.

I propose a toast to a long and lasting
business arrangement.

Uh, tell me.

Are you planning on bringing the kid
into the business?

Well, as a matter of fact... Speaking of
business, I am sure that we'll be able

to negotiate an arrangement that is
beneficial to both our companies.

Well said.

And after dinner, while you and Dottie
swap recipes, your husband and I will

down and hammer out this deal.

Right, Eddie boy?

Well, I think what Billy is trying to
say is... I said what I was trying to

Then let's get one thing straight, Mr.
Dawson. Call me Billy, honey.

Why don't I call you... Kate.

Let me help you and Marie in the
kitchen.

This whole family's a little bit off the
ranch.

I don't believe that guy. Honey, calm
down.

I will not calm down. He is such an
oinker.

I mean, he actually called his wife a
heifer.

Well, he did call himself a bull.

Don't you dare defend him. I would never
let anyone call me a heifer.

I wouldn't dare.

Pussycat. Kidding, honey, I'm kidding.

You know, I don't think he had any
intention of doing business with a

Just remember how much this means to
you, and by the time dinner's over,

have him eaten out of your hand.

Well, that'll be a step up. He probably
eats off the floor.

Kids.

Would you like to sit down?

Red? Yeah, Dad.

Why are you acting so strange?

Dad, I don't think you're going to like
this reason.

It's pretty weird.

Try me.

You see, Dad, Alfonso brought over a boa
constrictor. A boa constrictor? A boa

constrictor!

Where is it? I don't know. I've looked
everywhere.

Except under the table.

Under the table.

Whatever the kids got must be
contagious.

Are you two all right?

Yeah, fine, Casey. Yeah, great.

Well, and you do the honors.

Do we have a bigger knife?

So, you go to school, young fella?

Yes. Are you able to keep up with the
regular students?

I'd do fine.

Are you playing pussies with me?

No, Billy.

Rick, what's the matter with you? You've
been wound up all night and you hardly

touch your dinner.

Marie.

I don't want you to get nervous or
anything, but there's a snake in the

room. Yeah, I don't know how his wife
puts up with him.

No, you see, I'm talking about Alvin.
He's a boa constrictor. A boa what?

Well, that was some meal, Kate. You
really know your way around the kitchen.

Those dishes hop along.

Oh, you're right. There's a piece of
bread on the floor.

That's right.

And that's where it's gonna stay, too.

Oh, Kate.

Kate, I'll get it.

Oh, don't have to.

It's gone.

you to start the business portion of the
evening now. I'm ready. How about you,

Billy? Oh, I'm ready and raring to go.
Good.

Sit down, Eddie.

Now, I know you women like to get
involved in business, but it's just not

way things are done.

Well, our company works that way.

I'm all for giving women folks their
due.

I even bought Dottie here five
television stations. Didn't I, Dottie?

KTF, KPLP, KXRN. That's right, Dottie.

Let's talk about getting a heap of your
toys into my stores.

Well, Billy, that would be Kate's
department.

That's right. I'm afraid you're just
going to have to deal with me.

I don't know what your problem is. This
deal is going to give you a heap of

money to go shopping with.

Honey, let's get those...

Get those after -dinner drinks. I don't
want an after -dinner drink.

I sure do.

I'll just, uh... I'll just get the
tablecloth off and pick up the crumb.

I'll just wait up here if you don't
mind.

That boy is missing a boot.

Maybe I should call the whole thing off.

How long have you worked on this deal?

Six and a half months.

That's a real long time.

Are you saying that I shouldn't call it
off?

No, I'm not saying that. The man is
crude and obnoxious. I'd like nothing

than to throw him out on his big, fat
accent.

But,

honey, this is your deal, and you've
worked very hard on it.

I think before you do anything, you
better just count to ten.

One, two, three.

That's my pussycat.

One, two, three.

That was very nice.

Yes, it was, Billy.

Hey, that was some spread.

You better be talking about dinner.

So... You talk some sense into the
little woman?

Yeah, he did.

Well, I guess it'll be okay then for me
and Eddie to put this deal to bed.

Billy, Billy.

Billy.

Since Kate has taken over Eddie Toys,
our sales have increased 40%, she cut

overhead by 20%, and the profit picture
is better than it's ever been.

So, as president of Eddie Toys, if you
want our toys in your store, you will

have to deal with me.

That was a mighty pretty speech, little
lady.

But it doesn't change the spots on the
couch.

Uh, Billy, maybe... No, no, no, Dotty.

I'm going to do business with Eddie, or
not at all.

That is the most ridiculous thing I have
ever heard of. I set up the deal, I did

all of the work, and... And you're a
woman.

Now, listen, bully.

Billy.

Hon.

Please. Ladies first.

Now, I don't know where you've been
hiding all these years, but in case you

haven't noticed, we women have come a
long way, baby.

And wonders of wonders, we even have the
right to vote.

So, uh, when you call me a woman, I
consider that a compliment.

Well, now, you are a feisty filly.

You what now?

Well, my daddy did leave me controlling
interest in Toy -O -Rama.

Now, now, Dottie, you don't... But you
know now, Dottie, me.

If you don't sit down and sign those
papers, you're gonna spend the rest of

life as one unhappy bull.

But, Dottie... A lonely unhappy bull.

Do I make myself clear?

Dottie, there are people over here...
And there's a lot more people out...

And I'm going to tell them all about it
on KTF, KPLP,

KXRF, KXRF.

Here, use this.

Here I go again, spoiling her.

I've had better.

I haven't.

Well, I'm back. Did I miss anything?

Oh, for starters, Kate closed the deal.
Oh, that's great, Kate.

Well, I couldn't have done it without
Dottie.

Can't thank you enough.

I should be thanking you.

Come along, Billy.

Honey.

And she's some.

Are we leaving already? Well, I guess
I'll have my coffee later.

Wait a minute, Dex.

Uh -oh, he's back.

Would you please give this to Alfonso?
Oh, of course. Yeah, Dex, and if I were

you, I wouldn't open that till I get
home.

Now you've aroused my curiosity.

Good night.

Good night. Thank you. See you. Uh -huh.
Bye -bye. Thank you.

Bye. Good night.

Well, honey, I'm proud of you.

You've made me one happy bull.

Oh, what was in that box?

Nothing.
