Moving on up, moving on up, to the side, moving on up, to a deep...

Yeah, remember those chocolate cakes you used to make?

I remember what you tried to do with one of them.

Look, I know what you're thinking, Bunker, but I'm talking about all the

Black, brown, yellow, and white.

How come you put the whites last?

Look, I just want to help the community.

help the community, you can bring the prices down in your store there. I mean,

$12 to fix that hole, that's a disgrace.

Yeah, Louise, he's here.

Oh.

Louise wants to know what happened to her chocolate cake.

Oh, the cake, huh?

Tell Louise that George is over here trying to buy votes with it.

and already he's stealing in private.

And now he expects me to sign this here petition of his. Look, I hear you loud

and clear, Bunker, and I don't need you anyway.

You ain't the only honky on the beach.

Can you beat that? A guy comes waltzing in here with a petition, wants me to

sign the thing without even reading it. Now, I mean, he tastes the cake.

Archie could drive you mad, but at least he was the devil we knew.

When we moved here, I was so worried about the new people we were going to

And then the first neighbor we met was Mr. Bentley.

He was so nice and friendly.

And weird.

You think Mr.

Bentley is weird?

Have you ever taken a good look at us?

What are you talking about? Ain't nothing strange about us.

Oh, no.

You want to try it again?

Knock, knock. Who's there? George Jefferson.

Well, what do you think?

I think you should pick door number three.

Oh, George, you all right?

Of course I'm all right.

What are you two doing here?

visiting Snoopy.

Are you sure we're putting this on right?

I think so.

I would keep them closed.

Like that time I told her all I wanted was a good maid.

And you certainly got one.

Hello, Joyce.

Where's Vaughn?

She's in her room. Good.

they'd put them away.

I thought you were remembering the good times.

Well, it was touch and go with Lionel before we got that far.

Oh, look at this guy. Look at his suitcase. What are you moving into?

Hell no. This is Lionel's suitcase.

I want to get him out of here as soon as possible.

If he wants to stay in the motel, here's the money to pay for it. I don't want

him asking for nothing from this house. If my son wants to run away, I can

afford it.

any attention, aren't you? He's crazy.

He's not going to any motel. He's staying here. He ain't gonna shame me by

staying here.

Louise, I think your husband's right.

George, I want you to apologize to our son.

We don't have a son, Louise.

But don't worry. We can start all over again. You can give me another boy.

You better call parcel post.

Because I've stopped. Stop making deliveries.

I don't want to hear this.

Remember Lionel's graduation day? Everything went just perfect.

Yeah, he got perfectly drunk.

Drunk? I didn't know that.

I know you didn't.

Well,

isn't it nice?

No.

Isn't this nice?

Don't you two have anything else to say?

Oh, sure.

She's out of breath. And why are you breathing so hard?

I can't help myself.

I get carried away when I'm this close to you.

And he and Jenny had their problems along the way, too.

Jenny, I don't understand this. Oh, come on, Mama. Come on now, get down.

Look, Jenna, your mother told me you were crying as though your heart was

breaking.

You know how Mama likes to exaggerate.

Come on, Papa, get down.

Exaggerate? I did not exaggerate. Something was going on between you

Do you have any objections to your son marrying Jenny?

It ain't that. It's just the kind of wedding he's throwing that I object to.

Well, that's such a silly thing to argue about.

The basic wedding ceremony is very simple, and it's quite beautiful.

You see, all the minister has to do is say, Lionel, do you take Jenny to be

lawful wedded wife?

And then Lionel would say... I do.

And then he would say, uh...

Jenny, do you take Lionel to be your lawful wedded husband?

And then Jenny would say... I do.

You see? It's all very simple.

And as long as it's witnessed by two people, like those over there, then all

minister has to do is say, by the power vested in me by the state of New York, I

now pronounce you man and wife.

What's wrong with you?

I always cry at weddings.

If you cry now, what are you going to do at the real wedding?

George, this is the real wedding.

What?

She's right, George. Our children are married.

They're what?

You mean that was it?

Lana, how could you do this to me?

Because I love you, Pop.

You know, I just didn't want to get married without you being there.

Married? Without a band?

But I love my daddy.

Did you really marry them? Nope, they married each other. I just performed the

ceremony.

Oh, George.

Oh, don't cry, Weezy. Take it a good side.

What good side?

We're together, you and me.

Remember your old Navy, buddy?

Now, let's get something straight, Wendell.

better keep away from me oh hey louise don't you hey louise me you're supposed

to be george's best friend where do you get off making passes at me and right on

his nose too easy mama the only reason i haven't said anything earlier is

because i didn't want to hurt george's feelings but if you put your hand on me

one more time you're gonna draw back enough

You got me wrong. He ain't gonna use my hands.

Look.

I like a woman with a little

fire.

Now, I'm warning you, Wendell. You take one more step and I'll let loose with

the loudest scream you ever heard. Hey, that sounds groovy. Because we both

understand that a gnome...

Wendell was hitting on you and Mama was hitting on him.

Yeah, that was quite a night.

You know something, Weezy?

Maybe you never noticed this, but sometimes I don't appreciate you enough.

Really?

What do you know, Mom?

I don't know. 25, 26.

What does this matter now?

It's all dirty water under the bridge.

And how many times has she lied to you?

Louise, she never lied to me. You see?

She just never told me things she wanted me to know.

You know she loves you.

What's that got to do with it?

Louise loves everybody.

Uh -huh. Look, don't you uh -huh me. There've been enough uh -huhs for one

Remember when any of our neighbors in Harlem used to get sick? Who was it who

always looked after them? Your mother. That's another one of Weezy's fault.

Always helping people. And stray cats. And stray cats. Always petting them and

hugging them and picking them up and feeding them better than she feeds me.

Yeah, I guess you're right.

Mom is, um, too sentimental.

Mm -hmm. She'd hug a rhinoceros if it was lost.

There's something I want to say. Yes, I want to say something to you. Will you

let me say my thing first?

Sorry, George.

Well, when I went out of here before, I went over to Mama's.

You went crying to your mother?

I didn't go crying. I went mad.

Oh, I thought it was the wife who was always supposed to run away to Mama.

you cut it out before I get mad again?

Anyway, she told me something about you.

Oh, I bet she did.

No, I mean something nice.

Oh. She knew you were jiving this morning about us going out with the

She did?

Mm -hmm. She read it in your face.

So I got to thinking.

No matter how much you wanted us to be alone together, you had trouble making

that story.

That's right.

That's like what I wanted to tell you, George. You see... Will you hush up?

Anyhow, I can see it plain now.

If you can't lie for yourself, then I had no business asking you to lie for

Thank you, George.

Now, what you got to say?

Oh, it doesn't matter.

I think you nearly said it.

Good.

See, your trouble, Weasley, is you were born honest, you know?

I guess that's one of the reasons I feel about you the way I do.

Oh, what way is that, George?

Well, you know, I told you before.

what did you tell me before you know something nice you mean that i'm

beautiful no you mean i'm not

beautiful no i didn't say that well you better say something

You know, you really deserve me.

I think I heard him coming back.

Can you hear him? No.

Look, I don't care what that turkey steals out there, Weavey, as long as he

don't hurt you.

Oh, John.

I don't think I can live without you, Weavey.

He's coming. Coming for us. Don't panic. I ain't cleaning up after no wild

party.

That place looks like it's been looted.

Florence, quick. I'm tired.

I never thought the day would come when I'd be glad to see you.

Is he still out there?

Who? The burglar. What burglar?

We don't know who it was, but thank God you came back.

Why did you come back so soon?

What happened to your date?

That ugly no -count turkey didn't show up.

You said he was smart.

I think I'll untie you first.

How long you been like this?

Oh, I don't know. Seems like hours.

Just you and him?

You poor woman.

What did you do all that time?

Oh, we talked.

Talked? About what?

Oh, Florence, it was beautiful.

I was scared to death tonight, but I'll always... It ain't none of your damn

business what we talked about.

I was trying to get us loose so I could catch that crook. What we talked about

don't matter.

Mr. Jefferson's right.

We were pretty busy.

That's why I guess I can't remember anything we talked about.

Well, don't just stand there and untie me.
