All language subtitles for When She Was Bad... (1979).1080p

- We're home, here it is!
- Oh, Bobby.

What do you think, huh?

- Oh.
- What do you think?

- I love it!
- You think it's okay, huh?

Okay? It's perfect.

Well, it's the best I
could afford right now,

but maybe someday we can...

It's perfect.

Well, wait till you see out back.

Yeah, we've got something here.

- Hey!
- Oh, my gosh.

Robbie, come on, sweetheart, come on.

Look at this beautiful house Daddy bought

just for you and me, look.

Mommy, I wanna go home.

Honey, this is our home.

This is our new home.

Come on now.

Hey lady...

Here you are.

Robbie, say "Thank you."

Thank you.

Okay, one more and that's it.

- Okay.
- What should we do?

- How 'bout "Little Girl?"
- Yeah!

"There was a little girl,
who had a little curl,

Right in the middle of her forehead.

And when she was good
she was very, very good.

But when she was bad,

- she was horrid!
- She was horrid!

No, no, like this,

beep beep.

That was good. Okay, are you ready?

Watch now.

You're so silly.

- I love you.
- Love you too.

- Goodnight. Sleep tight.
- Okay.

Hey Teen?

I think Robbie's really
gonna like her room.

Hey.

Oh, you're a genius.

Okay, glasses, something...

- Which box?
- I don't know.

- I found this.
- I've got it!

- You find the glasses.
- Okay, okay,

I think it's this box.

- All right.
- Wait a minute.

- There's one.
- Uh-huh.

- Aha.
- Perfect, perfect match.

A set, a pair.

- Here.
- There's yours.

Okay.

- Have a little bit.
- And mine.

Thank you.

To us, huh?

To us.

- My aching feet, ooh.
- And my aching back.

Mm.

Ah! I got it.

To Mill Falls' leading insurance salesman.

Mm, honey, not yet.

But you will be.

I mean you could sell
anything to anybody, anytime.

Let's face it, you're irresistible.

Yeah, I am, aren't I?

Mm-hmm.

- Hey lady.
- Hmm?

Wanna buy some insurance?

Mm-hmm.

Bob, you know the curtains in the...

Hey hey, I thought you said
that I could sell anything,

to anyone, anytime.

Oh, I did?

You said that.

- Did I?
- Mm-hmm.

What would I do without you?

I don't know,

but I'm not gonna give
you a chance to find out.

Oh yeah?

- I mean it Bobby.
- Mm-hmm.

I don't know any man

that would have done what you've done.

Hey, Teen, no looking back, okay?

Moving here and
starting all over again.

Hey, hey, hey.

We're not gonna talk about it, remember?

Huh?

Remember?

Okay.

So, so anyway...

And then his clothes ended
up inside the front room.

- Well, what did he say?
- What?

What did he say, the real estate guy?

What did he say?

Oh, well, what he says,

"Don't even worry about it, Mr. Morgan,"

"you won't even notice
it unless it rains."

Aha!

Uh, Bobby?

- What?
- Bombs away!

Jesus, mercy!

Bobby? Bobby?

Bobby, are you okay?

Are you all right? Are you okay?

So, you like cold water, huh?

Ah, you rat!

- You rat!
- You like playing

- with the cold water now?
- Oh, you rat!

I'm not getting it enough either.

Why don't you make me say...

Just say you love me.

- I love you.
- There you go.

Now you've gotta say you really love me.

I really love you. I do, I do.

- Do you really love me?
- I really do.

- What are you doing?
- Huh?

I thought you were gonna help me today.

Oh yeah, I am, I will.

I've gotta checkout my office.

It looks just about like this place.

Okay, well, this afternoon I wanted...

Oh, honey, this
afternoon's that luncheon.

What luncheon?

The Junior Chamber of
Commerce, I told you.

You didn't tell me.

Yes I did. I gotta meet those guys.

Hey, Teeny, have you seen
my tie clasp anywhere?

Nice shot, kiddo.

Okay, kiddo, gotta go.

You take good care of Mommy, okay?

So what do you think?

Will they love me in Mill Falls?

Come on, don't knock yourself out today,

and I'll help you when
I get home, all right?

And don't forget to call

about installing the phone, all right?

One in the bedroom, one in the den,

and one in the kitchen, what do you think?

I love you!

Mommy, I want more milk.

Just a minute.

More milk, Mommy.

Mommy, I want more milk!

Will you try not to spill it this time?

That's not enough.

It's supposed to be up to there.

Look, if I give you any more,

it's gonna be too heavy and
you're gonna spill it again.

No I won't.

Robbie, just finish this,

and then you can have some more, okay?

No, that's enough!

- You never give me enough.
- Robbie!

You never give me enough!

Here, is that enough for you?

Is that enough for you?

I'm gonna tell Daddy on you.

Well, Daddy isn't here, is he?

Mommy!

No, you can't have anymore!

And don't you dare spill it.

Hi, baby, where's Mommy?

I don't know.

Hey, you girls have been busy, huh?

Yeah.

Teen, I'm home.

Oh shoot.

Oh, I wanted to surprise you.

I wanted to help you.

You're so dumb.

You're beautiful, but
you're dumb, you know?

I just wanted everything to be perfect.

Well, it is perfect.

You, poor baby, must be dead.

Well, how did it go?

It went great.

I'm gonna tell you all about it.

We're going to dinner and celebrate.

What?

So anyway, he says come by

and he'd be happy to
review his policy with me.

- Oh honey, that's great.
- Yeah.

Yeah, they're really very nice.

I'm really am the only
guy wearing a necktie.

But I think they like me.

And this one guy says...

Oh, before I forget,

did you call about installing the phone?

I want to put the number
on my business cards.

Um, I didn't really get to it.

I mean, how can I could the phone company

when we don't have a phone?

Well, honey, I thought you'd
go over to the neighbors.

Well, I didn't want to bother them.

I mean, I don't know those people, Bob.

Teeny, that's how you get to know 'em.

You go over, you knock on the door,

and you introduce yourself.

You see that?

Mommy's being shy again, hmm?

Bob, I don't think it's a good...

Hey, Jack!

Jack, here.

Hey, Bob, how are you?

All right. How you doing?

- Good to see you again.
- Good to see ya.

- How are you?
- Long time, right?

Very good.

Teeny, this is Jack Wilson.

He's the president of the JCs.

- Hi.
- We met this afternoon.

- My wife, Teeny.
- Hi.

Good to see you.

Well, gosh, it's good to have
you nice people in our town.

We, um...

Wait a minute now. Who's this?

- Hi.
- Robby, say "hello."

Is this Robbie?

I have a little guy about your age,

a little slugger, just like his brothers.

Robbie, what does that
do for you, anything?

We'll have to come by and meet 'em,

and Mrs. Wilson too, huh?

Yeah, right.

They're right out of town right now,

a couple of days, visiting...

Well, they ought to be
back Saturday, I guess.

By the way, you going to
the football game Saturday?

- We'll be there.
- Good, yeah.

Bring the girls, we need
all the rooters we can get.

- We'll be there.
- Good, yeah.

Okay, Robby, I'll see you Saturday I hope.

Okay, good to see you.

- Bye-bye.
- See you, Jack.

Bye.

- Jack.
- All right.

- Throw it here!
- Let's go, Charlie.

- Throw it here!
- Charlie!

Charlie!

- Yo! Come on.
- All right!

All right, Jack's on my side.

Good catch, Jack.

- All right.
- Okay, play ball.

Come on, honey.

Come on, Robbie, sweetie.

Teeny, it's not a funeral, you know.

Bobby, I don't know about this getup.

Hey look, look, I bought it
at Jack's department store.

I told you, you look sensational.

Come on, you both do.

Come on!

Ah, was I right, or was I right?

Jack, you're always right.

Hey, Jack!

Hey, Bob.

How you doing? Glad you could make it.

Hi, Jack.

Bob, you know Dan, right?

Yeah. Hi, Dan.

- Ray.
- Ray.

This is little Robbie here.

- And Mrs. Morgan.
- Teeny.

Welcome to Mill Falls.

Oh, heads up!- Hey.

Oh, watch it, watch it, watch it.

Robert, how are the hands?

Hey hey hey, let's play ball!

All right, Bob, throw it, man.

- Okay.
- Bob, let's go.

All right, come on, come on.

Let's go, Robbie.

You every night,

you bring home more bacon
in the weekly paycheck.

Oh, Gloria, you're the limit.

Hi, you must be Teeny Morgan.

- I'm Jack's wife.
- Hi.

Meet the girls.

Hi, I'm Bonnie.

Gloria, nice to have you with us.

Cute outfit, but aren't you cold?

Just ignore her,
honey, she can't help it.

Hi, sweetie, wanna go play with the kids?

What a beautiful child.

She looks just like you.

Thank you.

Robbie, look, there's
a teeter-totter, honey.

Why don't you go play
at the teeter-totter.

Go on.

Come on, Mommy will be there in a minute.

Go play.

Oh, she is lovely.

But you know it's hard being
the new girl on the playground.

Oh, kids work it out

- among themselves.
- Come on, join us.

Have you thought about nursery school?

Uh-oh, here comes the pitch.

Bonnie is
fixated on nursery school.

And I'll bet her salary doesn't
even cover Timmy's tuition.

Just barely.

But, you see, it evens
out because you see,

Timmy's happier and it keeps
me out of the loony bin.

Well now,
I stay home with my kids

and I'm not loony.

One woman's opinion.

I'm not saying I love
every minute of it.

But, I think if you have children,

it's your responsibility to
stay home and take care of them.

That's one thing that Jack and I agree on

- right down the line.
- Hup, hup, hey!

Wanna play on the teeter-totter?

Ah, I bet you're scared to.

You don't even know how to teeter-tot.

- You're just a baby!
- I am not!

You are too!

♪ You're just a baby, a baby ♪

Nobody ever tells you about that part.

Yeah, until it's too late.

I still think you should stay home.

Mommy, Mommy, she hit me.

- That girl hit me.
- Oh, oh...

Robbie.

I'm sorry.

It's okay, it's okay.

Let me see. Janey, Jane,
Jane-Jane, you're not hurt.

Come on, let me see.

You're not hurt. Come on, let me see.

What did you do?

She said I was a baby.

Well, you act like a baby.

If you can't behave yourself,

then we're gonna go sit in
the car and wait for Daddy.

Hup, hup, hup.

Jack, hup one.

Hey, hey, hey, hey, Jack!

- All right!
- He got it!

- All right!
- Let's go, Jack! Let's go!

All right, everybody,
over to our house for pizza,

- And beer!
- All right!

Let's go.

Come on, Bonnie.

There you go! Great hands.

- Good game. See ya.
- All right, see you later.

It was a good game, wasn't it?

Hey, what are you two doing in the car?

We're gonna go over to Jack's and...

Robbie's a little upset.

Bobby, I'd just like to go home.

Hey hey hey!

Good quarter-backing!

Yeah. Thanks.

We'll see ya. See ya.

Look, you can still go.

I'm gonna go by myself?

That's terrific, Teeny, that's just great.

And what am I gonna tell them?

It'll be a little
embarrassing, don't you think?

What happened here?

Okay, I'll go.

Well dammit, Teeny,

these people are trying to be nice to us.

What happened here?

She hit one of the kids.

Bobby?

What?

Please don't be mad at me.

Ah, Teeny.

How am I supposed to stay mad at you

when you're so gorgeous?

I thought those guys were
gonna drop their teeth today.

Come here.

Mommy!

Hey wait, just maybe
she'll go to sleep, huh?

Teen...

- Mommy!
- Bobby, you know what

the doctor said.

What is it honey?

There was this, this...

Hey, it's okay.

Mama's here. It's all right.

It's okay. It's all right.

Don't cry.

Don't cry.

Mommy's so sorry.

Mommy's so sorry.

You go to your room!

Get out!

Yes, mother.

Yes, I can't talk to you now, okay?

Yes, I know it's long distance.

I know.

Yes, I know I should've written sooner.

Hey, Teen, where are
you? I'm late for work.

Tell Daddy, little Teeny's just fine.

Yes. Goodbye.

Hey, what's with Robbie?

I told her not to touch anything.

Do you think she listened to me?

Well, honey, no harm done.

She's just a...

Bob, maybe,

maybe there really is
something wrong with her.

I mean, maybe something
bad did happen that time.

Teen, it was an accident.

She's perfectly normal. She's fine.

So stop worrying, huh?

You know this is gonna look terrific.

- You're a regular Rembrandt.
- Bobby...

Honey, I've really gotta get going.

Bobby, do you know Bonnie, Ray's wife?

Well, we were talking about
nursery school the other day

and she was saying that she thought

it would be a good idea for Robbie.

Honey, she's gotta work, of
course she's gonna say that.

But maybe I shouldn't be spending

so much time with Robbie.

It would really ease the pressure.

Pressure?

Teeny, what pressure?

That's why we came here,
to take the pressure off,

to get you away from there where...

Bobby, I thought that...

- Listen, Bobby...
- Look, do you wanna

talk about pressure?

I'm in over my head with this house,

out there every day trying
to hustle up some business.

Teeny, do you know what
I had to go through

to get this job - I know.

so you wouldn't have to work anymore?

- I know.
- I mean, a big part

of the whole thing was

you never spend enough time with Robbie.

- I thought we agreed on that?
- We did, but...

You're not even giving it a chance.

Look at Jack's wife.

You don't see her talking
about nursery school, do you?

Teeny, it shows, you know?

- I'm sorry.
- I'm late,

- I gotta get out of here.
- I'm sorry.

See, Mommy?

Hey, that's looking terrific, baby.

That looks real good.

Uh-oh, you missed a spot right there.

We gotta hurry and finish
before Daddy gets home.

Daddy, look what we did!

We're almost finished.

Be with you in a minute, honey.

She loves you so much, Teen.

She wants to be just like you.

There's so much you can
show her, teach her.

She wants to be just like her mommy.

We used to have this big old bathroom.

My mom and my sisters would be in there,

fixing their hair, and whatever girls do.

They're laughing and whispering.

They always sounded like
they were having so much fun.

I'd try to get in and my mom would say,

"Just a minute Bobby."

"Mom will be out in a minute."

Hmm. Well, time for bed, kiddo.

Teeny? Hey.

Hey, hey, hey, honey.

Hey, what's the matter?

Shh, hey.

- Come on. Hi, Teeny.
- Hi Jack.

Hi Robbie.

- Hi Jack.
- Jack.

Let's go.

Oh, thank you.

Have fun.

- Take care of Mommy, okay?
- Come on, Robbie.

Robert, let me tell you something, man.

This Harrison is a real
punctual fellow, now let's go.

Yeah, you know how it
is to get everybody ready.

Teeny, here honey, have a good time.

Okay, and good luck.

You'll do fine.

- Bye Jack.
- Bye.

Yeah, it makes sense to me.

Well, insurance, is it?

- Yes, that's right.
- Yeah, yeah.

I just wanted Bob to
meet the big man himself.

- Oh, you did, did you?
- Yeah.

All right, come on into the office.

Now wait, I'm gonna go out

and say hi to some of the guys,

and you two go ahead and talk
some business, all right?

- Okay?
- Thanks, Jack.

All right, see you later.

All right, Jack, I'll
see you at the club later.

At the club?

Oh wait, are you still shooting
in the low 80s, Harrison?

- Occasionally.
- Yeah.

Ah, he's a nice boy, Jack.

His father and I saw a
lot of action together.

Oh.

- Did you serve?
- Vietnam.

Oh, is that right?

Well, come on in, son.

You kids don't wonder off now.

How about this one, Mama?

Ooh, sweetheart, I guess
that one's just a little high.

Let's see what else they have, hmm?

Okay.

Here, you like this?

Mm-hmm.

A yard and 3/4.

Bet you we could get
you a dress out of this

if we cut it just right.

Oh, Mama, could we?

Just wait till you see
the surprise I got for you.

- Is it a makeup kit?
- No.

But I wanted a makeup kit like yours.

Oh, Teeny and Bobbie, hi.

Gloria.

Are you all right?

Oh yeah, I'm fine.

I just came from my hour with my shrink.

I'm always like this after.

Ah, that ice-cream looks good.

Listen, you want a ride?

I park a little further every time, see?

That's a good idea.

You're seeing a psychiatrist?

Oh, a psychologist.

Yeah, we're working on
why I'm so damn fat.

He says it's anger.

You know, like I'm taking it
all out on myself.

Of course, Roger says it's
'cause I eat all the time.

But then, he would.

Does the doctor say why you're so angry?

That's what we're trying to find out.

Sometimes, I don't I really
wanna know, you know?

It's kind of scary.

Oh, here we are.

You know, I just about
quit going.

But then Roger told me I
shouldn't worry about it.

He liked me fat.

I don't know, something
went click, you know?

And I knew I had to keep
going if it killed me.

What went click?

I don't know, it was just that

he didn't want me to change,

even though he knew how much I wanted to.

Mommy, I wanna see.

Now, wait a minute.

Don't come in, you're gonna ruin it.

Mommy!

Okay, just a second, just a second.

Okay. Come on in.

- I got a surprise for you.
- Good!

Okay, stay right there.

- Ta-da!
- Oh for me?

Yeah, come on.

- You wanna try it on?
- Yeah.

Mama made it just for you.

Let's see now.

Okay, arms in, that a girl.

- I hope it fits.
- Me too.

Okay, let's see.

It's too big.

Well honey, look,

- I can take it up.
- No, I don't like it!

It makes me too little.

Robbie, now wait a
minute, give me a chance.

- See if I can't...
- No, it makes me ugly,

and I hate it!

- Robbie, stop it!
- No! No!

Stop it!

No! No!

That's fine, just take it off!

Nothing's ever good enough for you, is it?

I said I'd fix it,

but that's not good enough for you, is it?

Nothing's ever good enough for you,

- is it?
- Stop! Mommy!

- What do you think?
- It's great.

- Huh?
- It's terrific.

- Yeah, nice.
- Yeah.

Oh boy, yeah.

Yeah, just put a bar over in that corner

and you've got it made.

Well, if I can sew up that factory,

maybe I can afford one of those too, huh?

- Yeah.
- Listen Jack,

you've really helped me.

I don't know how to thank you.

- Oh no, listen, Harrison,
- No really.

I liked you right away, I could tell.

That was, you know, all your doing there.

Listen, I gotta go.

I got a town council meeting to get to.

I'm gonna take off.

You're gonna wind up mayor, you know?

Who me? Mayor?

No. Come on.

What do you mean?

I've gotta go. I'll see you.

Oh, hang on a second.

Bob Morgan.

Hi, honey. Listen, can I
call you back I'm kinda...

Teeny, now...

Just calm down, honey. Just calm down.

What happened?

Is she, is she bleeding?

It's okay. Just calm down, it'll be...

I'm coming home.

I'll come right home, right. Bye-bye.

What's the matter?

Oh, it's, Robbie had a little accident.

Teeny gets over-excited, but
I've gotta get home, you know?

Oh yeah.

She's kind of protective, you know.

Yeah, I know.

I have the same thing.

This is nice, Bob, you know it?

It's really nice.

Nothing's broken.

She's almost asleep.

- I'm sorry...
- I gave you money!

Why didn't you just buy her a dress?

I wanted, I wanted to do something nice.

You gave me the machine, and I
wanted to make her something.

Oh Bobby, I need help.

You need to grow up,
Teeny, that's what you need.

Bobby, listen to me.

There's this doctor.

Teeny.

No look, Dr. Hastings said
that we should get counseling

and you agreed.

- Teeny.
- I know, I know,

it's my fault, it's all my fault.

If you'd just let me get help.

Teeny, we can't afford it.

There's this clinic at the hospital,

and Roger's wife goes there, Bobby.

Roger's wife goes there.

Bobby, I'm scared.

I'm so scared.

Oh.

Oh, Teen, it's,

it's okay, she's not hurt,

and you've been doing so well, you know?

All you've gotta do is
learn to control your temper

a little bit, that's all.

It's gonna be okay.

I've gotta get back, so we'll
talk about this later, okay?

Uh...

Okay?

Okay.

You're not looking at me.

Listen! Look at me.

Look at me!

You listen to me.

You look at me when I'm talking to you.

You're not looking at me!

You're a bad girl,

bad, bad, bad girl.

I'm sorry, but it takes several weeks

for the paperwork before
we can schedule you.

- Unless it's an emergency?
- No.

Of course, there are private therapists.

Thank you.

Come on, Robbie.

Private therapy is expensive.

You'll have to think
about it very seriously.

Talk it over with your husband.

You may well have to
arrange your priorities.

I just thought with
his medical insurance.

That'll help, of course,

but it'll still be pretty expensive.

I just need a little help
with Robbie, that's all.

It's nothing serious.

When you were at county,

did they talk to you about
the parenting program?

No, I didn't really talk to them.

I think it'll be a
good way for you to go.

It's a program for people

who are having problems
with their children.

It's run by trained volunteers,

doesn't cost anything,

and I'm one of the
consulting psychologists.

You mean like a class?

Well, there are groups.

But if you don't feel you're up to it,

someone can come out to the house.

It's run by a lady named Mary Jensen.

She works under my supervision.

I could ask her to call you.

Hi, Teeny?

I'm Mary Jensen.

Dr. Gilbert.

Uh, I've changed my mind.

I really don't think that I need...

Teeny?

Oh sure, another time, huh?

Who was that?

Oh, nobody, just a
lady selling cosmetics.

- Now you listen to me.
- No!

Robbie! You stop that.

Stop it!

Teeny?

Teeny, it's okay.

Can I come in?

She is beautiful.

She looks just like you.

I broke the dryer again.

Bob's gonna kill me.

Here, wait a minute.

Sometimes this works with mine.

See? Nothing to it.

Here, let me get that.

Come on.

You don't think you're pretty, do you?

What am I supposed to say?

Whatever.

Mm. Mm.

You look like one of those dumb ads.

My wash is everything to me.

I used to help my mother do this.

Bob thinks I'm pretty.

Who named you Teeny?

You know when you have your
pictures taken at school?

Well, I was always the last one

way down at the end, every time.

Actually, it's after my mother, Betina.

Oh, that's pretty.

What would you like me to call you, hm?

Truth is, it was my dad.

Daddy used to call me Little Teeny Little.

Hiya, Teeny, you don't know me,

but I've had my eye on
you for a long time,

so how's about a hot date?

You nut, what are you doing?

Ah, honey, I'd love to.

But Mary's coming today.

Ah. Okay, well, I'll
see you tonight, okay?

Bye-bye.

I don't know.

Sometimes I just look at her and,

all of a sudden I'm mad.

Sounds pretty crazy, doesn't it?

Listen, you don't wanna
hear all this junk.

You probably have things to do.

No.

My kids don't get out
of school till three.

No other crazy ladies to visit?

No.

I try, Mary, I really do.

But things just don't seem right.

Never good enough for her.

Yeah?

Have you heard from
your mother lately, hmm?

Funny you should mention that.

As a matter of fact, a little
love note this morning.

Why haven't I written?

Don't I know that they worry about me

when they haven't heard from me?

What would Little Teeny do
without them telling her

every little move to make.

He keeps saying, "Well son, you know,

we've been pretty happy with
our employee benefit plan."

But Teeny, now he's saying that

maybe he might present
my plan to the board.

And they're gonna do what he says, right?

I mean he owns the factory, right?

That's wonderful, honey.

Yeah, if I can get
him to go with me there,

well, that's practically the whole town.

And then I can hit up
all the other guys up

for life insurance, you know?

Teeny?

That's great.

Yeah, well...

I was listening, honest.

Hmm.

I don't know, I guess. I just...

You seem to be somewhere else lately.

I'm sorry.

Teen, what do you
talk about with that woman?

Mary?

Nothing.

Just stuff about when I was a kid,

and Robbie.

Robbie really likes her, you know?

- She even made her...
- Do you ever talk about me?

Bobby, would you like to meet her?

No. No, no, no.

- That would be so nice.
- I don't want to meet her.

I just, I don't like the idea
of you telling her things,

talking about us.

It isn't like that.

Well, she's
over here all the time.

No she isn't.

I just don't think you need

to spend so much time
with her, that's all.

I do need it.

She's helping me.

I'm really beginning
to feel better, Bobby.

That's all that counts, right?

No.

Come here.

The massive
legion of Longhorn fans

on their feet, yelling their "Go, go, go!"

From the 19 yard line...

He gets to about the 17.

There's gonna be a flag, next secondary,

knocks it back outside the 20-yard line.

Mm, thanks honey.

Second down
and eight, coming from Texas,

the Horns have been sitting
on the ball on this hot day...

- I've been thinking...
- Uh-oh.

Oh, come on.

You know, Robbie's gonna be
going to school next year.

And I was thinking maybe I
should go back to college.

College?

Yeah, Mary said there's
a teacher's college

over in Porter City,
and I was thinking that

when you get your new car,
maybe I could have the old one.

Daddy, come
and see how pretty I am.

See, then I could go in the morning.

Daddy, come and see.

Just a minute honey.

Then by the time she got out...

- Daddy!
- What is this,

Grand Central Station?

- Come and look!
- Robbie!

Anyway, I was thinking that maybe...

Honey, can we talk about this later?

I've gotta get this done.

Oh sure, I'm sorry.

He's at the 10.

He spins away from a man
on the seven-yard line,

breaks loose, touchdown Longhorns!

- Ah, honey.
- A great run by Driscroll.

And he did it almost solo,

as he started wide-right, cut
it back in against the grain,

got two good blocks from
the interior linemen...

Daddy!

And Teeny, can you do
something about Robbie?

- I can't hear myself think.
- To try for the extra point.

As the Texas Longhorn's have gone

ahead of the Red Raiders
by a score of 20 to 14.

What have you done?

I wanted to look pretty like you.

You know you're never
supposed to touch my makeup!

You know that!

I wanted to show Daddy.

Look at this mess.

I made a simple request
for you to keep her quiet,

you don't have to maul the poor kid.

That's right, make me the bad guy.

You were the one who wanted her quiet.

Why didn't you just come in
here and tell her yourself?

I mean, she just wanted to get
your attention, that's all.

But you didn't listen.

But then you never listen.

I was trying to tell you

- something important.
- Oh, I listened.

I heard it all!

First it's nursery school for Robbie,

then you've gotta go out
and get your head shrunk,

you can't get through the day

without a little cry on Mary's shoulder,

and now it's college.

What is it with you, Teeny?

I've done my best and
you're never satisfied.

- I need...
- College, that's a hot one,

you can't even handle your own life!

- Will you listen to me?
- No, you listen!

This time, you listen.

Teeny, I have knocked myself out trying

to make a new start for
us, and you've done nothing

but complain and try to change
things since we came here.

Now I've had it.

I've had it, Teeny!

Now if you're not happy,
if you're not satisfied,

then maybe we ought to just call it quits.

Damn!

Bob! Bobby!

Mommy!

The Tech quarterback,

banging his way over the
right side of the line,

he breaks loose, he almost got down there

before the Longhorn secondary
reacted and pulled him down.

That'll be a first down for Texas Tech

at the Texas 41-yard line.

Big, big play for the Red Raiders.

Hey Jack.

Hey, Robert, how are you?

Hey, what do you think you're doing?

- What?
- Hey listen...

I said what do you think you're doing?

- It's okay, just relax.
- No, no, wait, wait.

Hold on, wait a minute.

- What do I think I'm doing?
- Yeah!

What do you think you're doing?

Hey wait, Jack, wait, wait, wait.

Come on, I don't wanna go home.

Listen, hey the whole town
council's gonna see you, right?

The town council, I'm not coming back

to the town council at all.

- Come on, let's go.
- Have a drink, Bob.

Hey! Hey, hey!

- Town council.
- Yeah, yeah right.

Hey, no hard feelings, okay?

- Really, right, a big nothing.
- Come on, let's go.

- See you tomorrow, all right?
- Yeah, goodnight.

Get in there, all right.

Oh, watch it, Robert!

Robert, Robert, Robert, oh, I thought...

Give me that.

Nobody's home.

Oh, oh.

Nobody's home anymore.

Oh, Bobby.

Bobby, I love you, oh God.

Oh, baby, I could never leave you.

I'm so sorry.

Oh, it's me, I acted like an idiot.

You're acting so dissatisfied,
I didn't know what to do.

It's all my fault.

I don't know what's gotten into me.

You've been acting so
different, that's all.

No, I'm not, I won't...

Just don't ever change, okay?

There's nothing to talk about.

I just don't want you
to come here anymore.

But why?

I trusted you.

I mean, you're supposed
to help me with Robbie.

That's what you're supposed
to be for, isn't it?

Teeny, what happened?

It wasn't Bob, it was Robbie.

Bob and I were just fine
until you started in on me.

I mean, what are you trying
to do, wreck our marriage too?

Teeny, please, let's just sit down

- and talk about it, and...
- I mean, you come in here,

who do you think you are, my mother?

You can't tell me what to do.

Teeny, listen. No, listen to me.

I haven't tried to wreck your marriage.

I've only tried to point out some things

that you already know.

You said that you hate
Robbie, you don't hate her.

Teeny you're unhappy with your life.

You don't know anything about it.

Bob and Robbie are everything to me.

- They're all I have.
- Teeny, Teeny,

you are unhappy with your life,

you're unhappy with Bob, and
you're taking it out on Robbie.

I'm not taking anything out on Robbie.

And you can't prove that I have.

Have you ever seen me hit her?

No. No, but you've told me
that you're afraid you might.

Well, I was.

But I'm not anymore.

And Bob's right, I've just been
acting like a spoiled child

and I'm gonna change that.

I am, Mary.

I mean, you keep telling
me that you believe

that I can get better.

Why can't you believe me now?

Teeny, I know you can better,

but you need more help.

I can't do it now.

I just can't do it right now.

Look, I promise you, that
if I start to feel bad,

I'll call you or I'll call Dr. Gilbert.

Oh Teeny.

You know, you just don't
leave me any place to stand.

Like I say, there's no
proof of anything, but...

...sooner or later you're
gonna have to start thinking

about Robbie, Teeny.

You got to.

Mommy, Daddy, watch this!

- Okay, come on.
- Be careful.

Let's go! Hup two, here we go.

All right, here we go.

Look out, look out!

Whoa!

Okay, one more time and then we go.

Come on.

- Wanna try that.
- No I don't.

Oh, okay.

Oh, honey, you're
working wonders with her.

Well, I've been trying.

You know what I think?

What do you think?

Well, I think we've got
ourselves a first class family.

That's what I think.

- Oh, you do, do you?
- Yes, I do.

And I also think we ought to start in

on our expansion program.

You don't mean a baby?

Well, honey, we talked about it.

Be careful now, okay?

And she's growing up.

She's gonna be in school next year.

After they way I've been with her...

Teen, it's all different this time.

I mean, we weren't ready for Robbie,

that's why it's been so tough.

It's gonna be different, you know?

It is.

You see, that's why I wanna have one now,

to show you how much I believe in you.

I want you to know
we're gonna be together.

We're gonna stay together.

Robbie? What have you done?

I'm sorry.

I told you to stay beside me.

What you doing,
breaking up the joint?

- Hi, Gloria.
- Hi.

Oh, it serves them right.

You notice how they put the
old tooth rotters right there

at the kids' eye level?

So how are you anyway?

I haven't seen you in months.

I'm fine.

Oh yeah, you look kind of...

Look at me.

- Lost weight?
- How about that?

I'm getting there.

You ought to see old Roger.

He's tickled to death, would you believe?

Of course, we've been
fighting like cats and dogs

about everything else,
but, then we make up and,

that's the fun part.

Roger has bought me this nightgown

that is totally out of control.

Come on, let's get out of here.

Those cookies are making me nervous.

So how's Bob?

Okay, he's away at a
conference this week.

Oh, so you're going it alone, huh?

Did you hear about Jack and his wife?

I hear she's not coming back.

I don't know, all those kids...

Positive?

Yes, I see.

Thank you.

Yes, I know he'll be very pleased.

Thank you.

Robbie, where are you, honey?

Mommy has a surprise for you.

I don't want a baby.

Sure you do, honey.

You can help me fix up this room for him.

We'll get the old crib and...

No, I don't want any old baby.

Robbie, you're getting
to be a big girl now.

No I'm not.

I'm not, I'm not.

Yes, you are,

and it's about time you
started acting like it.

- No!
- Stop it!

- No.
- Stop it, Robbie!

No, I hate you!

Don't you say that!

No, I hate you!

Don't you say that!

I hate you!

Robbie? Robbie?

Robbie?

Oh...

Robbie?

Oh, baby, oh.

Dr. Glower, please
call nurse's station two.

- Bobby.
- Hey.

Teeny, what happened?

It was an accident.

Tell me what happened.

Mr. Morgan?

Mr. Morgan, I'm Dr. Giles.

Doctor, how is she?

Sit down, please.

Your daughter has a subdural hematoma,

and we have performed an
operation to relieve the pressure.

Well, she's gonna be
all right, isn't she?

Well, she'll certainly
survive, and many children

with this kind of injury
recover completely.

Of course, it may take some time.

Teen?

Just another minute, please.

Um, I'll be downstairs.

- Hi.
- Oh, hi, Mary.

- How are you?
- Good, fine.

Fine, listen, Ronnie
Hughes was released today

to the children's center.

- Jan picked him up.
- Oh, good, good.

I'm glad they decided to go that route.

Listen, how's the little Morgan girl?

Well, she's not one of yours is she?

- Hey, I'll see you.
- Yes.

- Teeny.
- No.

Teeny, I want to help you.

It's not what you
think, it was an accident.

She fell off her tricycle.

Listen to me, I want you to
get in touch with Dr. Gilbert.

Now, he has to talk to you, and with Bob.

- Look I don't...
- Just call him.

- Call him.
- I have to go, Bob's waiting.

Call him.

You've gotta let me tell them the truth.

Teen, that's crazy.

I only lied because...

Will you...

Bobby, please.

Teeny, do you want
them to take Robbie away?

Yes, before I end up killing her.

My God, can't you understand anything?

If you tell them, they're not
just gonna take Robbie away,

you're gonna probably end up in jail.

We're lucky they didn't find
out about the other time.

What if they check with Dr. Hastings?

We had a hard enough time
trying to convince him.

They can't do anything
to me that I don't deserve.

Teen, I thought we
finally had a life going.

I can't spend the rest of
my life pulling up roots

and starting again in some new place.

I know you can't keep starting over.

And I can't let you.

And I can't keep doing
these things to you,

and to Robbie.

I wanna go away.

What do you mean, "Go away?"

By myself, it would be better.

And then when the baby comes I'll...

Hey, don't talk that way.

I mean it, Bob.

Robbie would be better off without me.

No, no, honey, no.

Look, I'm sorry, I was upset.

Look, we can make it better.

- No we can't.
- We can. We can make...

No we can't, Bob, we
can't make it better.

I can't make it better.

I know that now.

The only time I ever had any hope...

...was with Mary.

But you didn't want that.

I know.

Maybe I was wrong.

Oh, Bob, if you would let her help us...

You're the one who knows her.

Then Dr. Gilbert.

- Well, Teen...
- That would be better.

See, he's a man, and we could...

It would be like starting fresh.

Teen, that would be like
admitting what happened.

It's our only chance.

Well, I guess I could
take you down there and...

But you'll talk to him?

Will you?

Sure, I, sure.

Oh, Bobby.

Bobby.

Daddy thought it would be so nice for you.

Think, a new puppy.

We could go pick him out, today.

Okay, here we go sweetheart.

I bet you're hungry.

But we better hurry, honey, we don't...

We wanna be ready when Daddy gets here.

We don't wanna be late for the doctor.

Oh, it's okay, honey.

It's okay, Robbie, we're not
taking you to the doctor.

It's Mommy and Daddy's doctor.

And you know that Mary...

Remember Mary,

that nice lady that used
to come and see you?

You'll get to see her.

Oh, Robbie.

Robbie, I've been such a bad mommy.

But I love you.

I love you so much, baby.

And the doctor's gonna help me, and Daddy.

And I promise you, I'll
never hit you again,

no matter what happens.

I'm never gonna hurt you again.

Oh. Oh, baby.

Honey, it's just taking a
little longer than I thought.

Look, I know, but...

Teeny, he's getting ready to sign.

It does not mean that, I am willing.

I'll go next time.

But you promised.

You promised!

Oh sure, you're gonna help me.

You're gonna go with me.

Everything's just gonna be great!

Stop it, Robbie!

I said I wasn't gonna hit you, didn't I?

Didn't I say I wasn't gonna hit you?

I promised, didn't I?

It's darling Daddy that
breaks his promises.

Darling Daddy!

Mommy?

Mommy?

Mommy?

Mommy?

Mommy? Mommy?

Mommy?

Mommy?

Mommy?

- Mommy?
- It's okay, now.

Mommy's not gonna hurt you anymore.

Mommy's not gonna hurt you anymore now.

Okay.

Okay.

Robbie?

Robbie?

She's with Mary.

Mary found you.

You lost the baby.

How is she?

She's coming along.

Right now she needs to see you.

Teeny?

Why'd you have to do it anyway?

When you didn't show
up for your appointment,

I got worried.

Why didn't you just leave me alone?

It's hopeless.

It's hopeless, you know.

I'm never gonna change.

Hey, you have changed, Teeny.

You know,
our instinct is to protect kids...

...it's not to abuse them.

I mean, if that weren't so,

the race would've died
out a long time ago.

But I abused Robbie, over and over.

But not this time.

This time you, you relied
on your protective instinct.

Teeny, you literally laid
down your life for her.

Yeah, yeah.

Big Earth mother.

I killed the baby, didn't I?

I've done so many bad things.

Robbie's never gonna be all right.

Teeny, the doctor said...

"The doctor said?"

The doctor said she'll
be all right physically.

- But inside...
- She still has a chance,

Teeny, and that's why you've
gotta get yourself together.

There's nothing you can do
about what happened, nothing,

except try to understand it so
that it never happens again.

And you can do that.

I know you can.

Oh, I don't
wanna go home tomorrow.

Bob will just...

I wish I could be alone,
try to figure things out.

It's silly, but I'm scared.

Well, you've never
been on your own before.

You went right from your father to Bob.

And I don't, I don't
wanna lose Robbie but...

...I'm afraid to be with her.

Well, you shouldn't be right now.

You know, protective services...

...I had to report it, Teeny.

They'd like to see her go to the center.

Like a foster home?

No, it's not a foster home.

It's called a crisis center.

It's designed for kids whose
parents are having trouble.

- Where is it?
- It's in Porter City.

I'm not gonna let you take her, Teen.

I mean, she's mine too.

I mean she's my daughter too.

Look, you still don't get it,

you don't have a choice.

Will you listen to me?

That's my style, remember?

Look, you're not taking her.

I'll get a housekeeper, I'll
do whatever I have to do,

but you're taking her,

- she's my daughter.
- It's out of your hands.

It's out of your hands, Bobby.

Besides, you don't think I'd
let her stay here with you

even if I could, do you?

Hey, I'm not the one who beats her.

You said so yourself.

That's right, why should you

when you've got me to do it for you.

What? What are you talking?

What are you saying?

Look, you don't give
a damn about Robbie.

You just wanna use her
so that she won't leave,

and I won't leave, and we
won't spoil your image.

Teeny, you're not making any sense here.

Then I'll spell it out for you.

You're not gonna give me any
trouble, because if you do,

then I'll tell the doctors
exactly what happened,

and then they'll have to take
Robbie away and me away...

- Honey.
- And everybody in this town

- is gonna know what went on.
- Honey, this is crazy.

This is not you.

You've never been mean before.

Ask Robbie.

I'm taking a place near the
center where Robbie will be.

Nobody has to know about this.

You can just say we're away visiting.

You're gonna have a real
nice time here, honey.

Look at all the kids.

Oh, Robbie, I wanna be with you

more than anything in the whole world.

But Mommy has to learn

how to take care of
you better first, okay?

Don't cry.

Please don't cry.

You just have to stay
here for a little while,

- and then we can be together.
- No!

Yes, we can, and Mommy's
gonna come and visit you.

No you won't.

Robbie!

Go away!

She'll be okay.

Oh, Robbie, please.

I hate you!

- Teeny...
- Don't touch me!

Teeny.

Boy Scouts forever.

Boy Scouts forever, right.

Oh God.

I remember one time I
was in the second grade...

...no, maybe it was the third grade,

I don't know,
it doesn't matter...

Anyway, this kid, this kid
just beat the hell out of me.

I mean he.

Oh boy.

I came home crying.

My dad gave me the strap.

I got the strap a lot, you know?

Till I finally got the idea...

But my sisters, that was different, oh.

They were mama's little darlings.

Yeah, they wanna take over the world.

As far as I'm concerned, they can do it.

As far as I'm concerned, they
can have the whole damn thing.

Jack, I tried everything.

I tried everything.

Hey, what are you doing, man?

Hey, come on, come on.

- I tried everything.
- Come on, come on.

Hey,

- know what you need?
- I'm sorry, I was...

Come on.

You need one of Jack's specials.

Come on now.

Guaranteed.

One of these things hits you...

Maybe it was the damn mojito, hmm.

Anything.

You want me to come up?

No, your kids are waiting.

Kel's there.

You never give up on me, do you?

I've never given you anything.

I've never even said thank you.

Why can't I be like you?

Teeny, every mother
who's ever lived knows

what it's like to hurt her kids.

I mean, you think I've never hurt mine?

With ugly words, with anger.

If I don't hit them,

it's not because I'm
somehow I'm better than you.

I've just been luckier.

I'll be by tomorrow.

Hey, you're okay, you know.

I figure that as long
as the mill's doing business

with you, I might as well too.

Well, I appreciate it.

And we can work it out so your
payments aren't too steep.

I've got some schedules in the car.

Well, anyway you look at it,

it's gonna take a bite out of my pay.

Ah, what the heck.

I think sometimes, what
if I get wiped out?

It could happen, you know, in that place.

You're right.

Your wife and kids, when
you come right down to it,

that's all a man's got.

Hey, that's a nice car you got there.

Yeah, it's nice.

It's real nice.

So how do you feel?

You and your questions.

How do I feel when Robbie cries?

I don't know.

I guess I just feel scared.

Do you mean like you
don't know what to do?

No.

Like I'm gonna catch it.

Did your mother hit you when you cried?

When I cried and when I didn't.

You just couldn't please her?

Not good old Mother.

No, you see, no matter what you did,

it was never quite good enough for her.

She'd just haul off and hit you anyway.

Well, you must really be angry with her.

You get over things.

I bet you wanted
to hit her sometimes, huh?

Did you?

I don't remember.

You know what? I should get going.

I'm supposed to be looking
for a job, you know?

No, no, we've got time.

I'm kind of tired, Mary.

Why don't we do this tomorrow?

- I'd feel better if...
- No! Now.

Your mother hit you

- just like you hit Robbie.
- No.

- You hate Robbie, don't you?
- No!

You hate it when she
reminds you of your mother.

I'm getting out of here.

No, you are not!

You are gonna stay here
until you've done enough.

- Don't.
- You never do enough,

do you, Teeny?

- Don't.
- Never!

You never do enough and
you never do it right!

- Come on, face it, Teeny.
- Shut up.

You're just not good enough.

You act like some kind of a child.

- You shut up!
- You're a baby.

- You're just like a baby.
- I hate you!

- Teeny, you're a little baby.
- I hate you!

- You're a baby.
- I hate you!

I am good! I am good, I am.

Yes, yes you are good.

Yes, you are.

Listen...

...Robbie made you feel like
that scared little girl

that you were with your mother, see?

And that's why you hit her.

You see?

Oh Robbie.

Oh Robbie.

- There's always a next time.
- Yeah.

Would you give this to her for me, please?

Of course.

Teen?

Oh, baby.

- Bob...
- Shh, shh, hey.

Teen? Teen?

Teen?

Hi.

I have to talk to you.

Sure, come on in.

Sorry, the place is such a mess.

I guess I'm not much of a housekeeper, I,

I don't have your touch.

It's not a touch, it's hard work.

I'm sorry, I
wasn't gonna be like that.

This is just really awkward.

Hey, I made some coffee.

- You want some coffee?
- No.

I ran into Gloria the other day.

Wait till you see her,
she's lost all this weight.

She really looks terrific.

Good.

Good for her.

Salesman of the month.

Well, I've had a lot of time, you know?

Now Teen, you wanted to talk.

This hide and seek game
in the middle of the night

- is fun, but...
- Will you listen?

Ah, shot me there, kiddo, didn't you?

One of my many sins, yeah.

One of my many sins.

I never listen.

Bob, I know how much I've hurt you.

Yeah, well, I probably deserve it.

I'm just this,
this dumb jerk, you know?

I had this idea that
if I knocked myself out

to love you and take care of you

and try to make a nice
life for you, but...

I know how hard you've tried.

But you can't do this for me.

I've got to try to grow up,

and live in a way that's
good for Robbie, and for me.

But not for me, huh?

Yes, for you, if you want that.

But so many things would have to change.

Look, I'll go see the
doctor, and I'll to him,

and I'll talk to you more about it,

and, if you'll just come back.

I'm not ready yet.

See, if I try real hard
and I'm real lucky...

...maybe I can give Robbie
something to really trust in,

and maybe she won't grow
up with too many scars.

But she's gonna have scars, Bob.

And we gave her those scars together.

I know that now.

So that's why I can't be sure

that we wouldn't just do it again.

So let's try not to be too sad, okay?

I did such bad things.

I blamed you.

No, we've done awful things together,

to Robbie and to each other.

I used to think that made us evil people,

but I don't think that anymore.

I think we just bring out
each other's worst faults.

So maybe apart...

...separately, we'll really
be able to do something.

I don't enlist in any of this,

not yet.

I just know I love you.

I love you.

I love you too.

But we have to love each
other enough to let go...

...for now.

I don't think I can stand it.

Oh Teeny.

Hi.

What's this, a
fire sale at the toy store?

Do you think it's...

I think you could just bring yourself.

- Oh.
- Not nervous are you?

Oh no, I just asked you
to come along for the ride.

Teeny, look, she may not
be ready to see you yet.

Oh thanks, I needed that.

Jason, I told you
not to put that up, okay?

I'll wait here.

Robbie?

Oh God.

Robbie?

It's okay, it's okay.

- Robbie?
- Go away, I hate you!

It's okay, honey, you're just scared.

I am not scared!

Oh, Robbie, I'm scared too.

Go away.

I love you!

I love you!

I love you, I love you.
