All language subtitles for The Jeffersons s07e14 Sorry Wrong Meeting

Well, we're moving on up. Moving on up.
To the east side. Moving on up. To a

deep.

George, we are on our way downstairs to
our CPR class.

And just in case you don't know what CPR
means... I know what it means, but I

look stupid.

Lord, deliver me from temptation.

CPR means cardiopulmonary resuscitation.

Well, hush my mouth, Jack.

I, George... sponsored a CPR class not
too long ago for all his employees.

That's right. I even took the class
myself.

It's real beneficial, ain't it? Yeah,
it's beneficial.

The insurance company lowered my group
rate.

Well, I'm still glad you took the class.
CPR is something every human being

should know.

Oh, yeah? And why is France going along?

Because if you ever have a heart attack,
I can save you.

If the spirit moves me.

Hello, Florence.

Mrs. J.

Oh, hi, Mr. Bentley. Sorry, we can't
talk.

Oh, laryngitis?

Uh, no, I meant... Oh, never mind.

What do you want, Bentley?

Actually, Mr. J., I just dropped in to
return your TV guide. I'm done with it.

Oh, thanks.

Hey, wait a minute. This is last week's
TV guide.

Yes, I know. That's why I'm done with
it.

Bentley, I hope a UFO lands on this
planet.

Why?

So you can have a family reunion.

George, my apartment's been robbed. The
police just left. What?

Mr. Willis. Hard cheese.

Crazy. They broke in this morning while
I was showering. Oh, they got my TV set,

my stereo, my gold watch, all my credit
cards. My, you must have been in the

shower a long time.

It's a lot of them to clean.

Where was Helen when all this happened?
Oh, Helen's up in Connecticut visiting

her cousin.

I just talked to her. She's very upset.

George, those hoodlums, they even stole
my shoe trees.

Just come on, calm down. Just take it
easy. Sit down, sit down, sit down.

Here, drink this. Well,

at least those burglars won't be
bothering you again.

Why? Well, they've already got
everything you own.

This is the third burglary in this
building in two weeks.

George,

you could be next.

Oh, don't be silly. Who'd want to steal
Mr.

J?

No, I mean, he's got a lot of new
furniture in here. He's got a lot to

Look, if a burglar comes in here, he's
dead.

You have a gun?

Better. I got Florence sitting around
with curlers in her hair.

No man could look at that and live.

Listen, something has got to be done.

Yes, perhaps you could get her to wear a
hairnet.

Look, I think we should organize the
tenants and form a security watch.

Other buildings and neighborhoods are
doing it. Oh, we'll do.

You know, my cousin Cyril once found
himself in a similar situation.

Please don't tell us about it, Bentley.
See, cousin Cyril was living in this

exclusive apartment building in London
and a rash of burglaries broke out.

Apartments vandalized, possessions
carted away. The tenants were up in

they were at a loss as to what to do
until Cyril finally took action.

He organized a building watch?

No, he moved.

I happen to like this building, and I'm
going to organize the tenants to protect

it. Now, are you with me?

Bang on.

George.

What? Me go out with you and somebody
that says bang on? Never happened.

But I... George, wait a minute. Look, if
you get the other tenants involved,

they come and see me.

Well, all right, but meantime, I'm going
out to buy some locks.

Good idea, Mr. Willis. And while you're
at it, get me some bagels.

Folks, let's see if we can put what we
just learned about CPR to practical use.

I'll need a couple of volunteers.

Okay.

I thought he'd never ask.

Did you remember everything?

I think so. Just tell me where the heart
is.

Now, ladies, this is Rosessa Annie.

And I thought I had a rough day.

Well, she's not supposed to look good.
She's just experienced cardiac arrest.

Then she's got nothing to worry about.
We'll save her.

Great. And Annie will tell you if you're
doing it right.

Now, look, if that dummy starts talking,
I'm leaving.

You see, if you follow the proper
procedure, that little green light will

Okay, ready?

Sure. Ready.

All right, you're walking down the
street.

It's a beautiful day.

Suddenly, you see Annie collapsed on the
sidewalk.

What do you do?

Quickly.

Call my husband. No time for that.

Call you.

Wrong. You try to wake her up, make sure
she hasn't fainted.

Oh, you know, that reminds me of one day
at choir practice.

You see, it was real hot. And the
soprano nest in me all of a sudden

Well, Chow, you can just imagine... Move
it!

Come on!

Wake up!

Gently. We want to wake her up, not beat
her up.

Okay, now you tell a bystander to go for
help.

Help!

Thank you.

Clear the air passage.

Good. Check for breathing.

What do you hear?

Nothing. Well, do something quick, Miss
Jefferson. You're losing her.

Calm. She's just a dummy.

Now, look. Miss Jefferson's doing the
best she can.

I meant Annie.

Okay, now what's next?

I know.

Four quick breaths. Right.

That's right, Miss Jefferson. Give it to
her good.

All right, does she have a pulse?

No? Then it's time to start chest
compressions. Now this is where you come

Well, it's about time. And don't worry
about me, because I watch every episode

of Marcus Welby.

One, two, three.

Congratulations.

You just broke her ribs.

You'll have to move your hands lower.

One, two, three, four, five.

Breathe.

Come on, Annie. You got a lot to live
for, child.

Very good. Very good, ladies. You just
got your green light.

You've saved Annie.

Well, I don't take your word for it, but
she doesn't look any better than when

we came in.

Of course, in a real emergency...

You keep this up until the victim was
revived or until help comes.

Thank you, ladies. You can take your
seats now.

Florence Johnston saves the life. Film
at 11.

Okay. Let's see now.

Who's next?

How about you two?

No. No, thank you. Oh, come on.

Yeah, she won't bite.

Yeah, come on. It's easy.

Now, please, just pick someone else.

Look, everyone has to try.

You might as well come up.

I said just pick someone else.

But I picked you.

Well, you picked wrong.

Hey, come on now. We're all friends
here. Well, you may all be friends, but

don't touch anything that's been kissed
by a nigger.

the nanny.

Okay, you two. I think you should
apologize to these ladies and then

Apologize? Oh, man, you got a lot to
learn.

Klansmen don't apologize to their kind.

Klansmen!

Take it easy, man.

Okay, you two. Beat it.

Now!

I'm going to pray for you, brother.

I'm going to pray for every decent white
man and woman here because you're all

being brainwashed.

But the day will come, and believe me,
it will come soon.

You'll thank your maker for the Ku Klux
Klan.

Come on, son.

Yeah, could use the fresh air.

Florence! Florence!

Uh, class, uh, listen, I think we should
try to forget what just happened.

Let's get back to learning how to help
our fellow men.

Florence, are you okay?

Yeah, I'm okay.

But if I ever catch that turkey alone,
I'm gonna grab him by his legs, pretend

he's a wishbone, and make my wish.

You ever think you'd be living in the
same building with her?

Come on. Hello.

I tell you, Duane, I'm going to call the
manager right away and reserve that rec

room. We're gonna have a little meeting
of our own tonight.

Good idea, Dad. It's about time we took
some action.

Yeah, something's gotta be done now
about the lowlife that's infecting this

building. Excuse me.

I'm in 14D. I couldn't help overhearing.
Are you planning a meeting tonight?

You bet we are.

We're going to get some of the tenants
together and discuss the unsavory

around here, if you know what I mean.
Oh, I know exactly what you mean.

My name's Tom Woods.

Oh, my name is Herbert Purcell. This is
my son, Dwayne. Oh, hi, Dwayne. Hi. Yes,

we just moved into the building. Had no
idea the mess going on around here. Oh,

it's terrible, isn't it? My apartment
was just broken into.

Oh, that figures.

My son and I were nearly attacked a few
minutes ago. Well, this meeting tonight

ought to help put a stop to that kind of
thing. Great. It's time we show them

that we're not going to be pushed around
anymore.

Yeah. Since people like us have to band
together or else none of us will be

safe. Well, that's exactly what I've
been saying.

Oh, what time is your meeting tonight?
Oh, let's say 7 o 'clock in the rec

Oh, I'll be there.

Oh, hey, I know somebody else who might
like to come.

Fine. Bring him along, Tom.

Is he our kind of man?

Oh, yes, he is.

I think you're really going to like my
friend George.

You are the best accountant in the whole
world.

Tell me some more about my tax refund.

Tax refund.

What the hell was that?

Oh, that rotten little creep. That slimy
little toad. What did I do now?

If you hadn't held me, I would have
knocked both of them in the middle of

week. Then you'd be stupid to their
level, Florence. Now calm down.

Now just sit down and relax.

Yeah, that's one thing you good at.

Sure, I'm gonna get my baseball bat.

Wait a minute, I was only 10.

Ain't no reason to hit nobody with no
baseball bat.

George, Florence and I were insulted at
our CPR class.

What? The insult was nigger, and the
people were Klansmen.

Klansmen? Ku Klux Klansmen?

That's right.

In New York?

In this building?

That's right.

Let me get the baseball bat.

What's the matter with you two? We can't
solve this problem with baseball bats.

Right. You got any lead pipes around
here?

Lawrence, please.

Look, Miss Jefferson, I don't like that
word coming from our own people. And

when a white man says it, I want to make
sure he only says it one time.

Florence, remember what the Bible says.

Love thine enemies.

Yeah. And what you do to the least of
thy brethren, you have also done to me.

And they sure are the least of his
brethren.

You're right, Miss Jefferson. We got to
love our enemies.

That's right.

No matter how rude they've been. Look,
Weezy.

One minute they're rude, the next minute
they burn a cross on your balcony.

You remember Mama's cousin, Elvin?

No. I guess not, because he's not around
anymore.

Well, some people down south got the
idea that he had raped this white girl,

even though he was 50 miles away when it
happened. So they threw him in jail.

That's terrible.

Oh, no, no, no. Not half as terrible as
the Klan burning the jail down around

him.

Pretty rude, huh?

Look, Florence, you think those men are
still in the building?

George, please don't do anything rash.

Look, I'm not thinking about rashes. I'm
thinking more about bruises.

Because if I find out who they are, I'm
going to grab them by their tonsils and

turn them inside out.

Well, that won't make you any better
than they are, George.

Now, if they are stupid enough to live
their lives hating, then let them.

But sooner or later, they are going to
be eaten up by their own hate.

Look, Weasley, there's only two ways
ahead of the Klan.

George, great news.

The tenants are having a meeting at 7 o
'clock tonight. Look, Weasley, we've got

bigger trouble.

The Klan's been in the building.

You mean the KKK?

No, the Beverly Hillbillies.

happening to this building? I don't
know.

George, if you want to do something
constructive about the Klan, go down to

tenants' meeting tonight.

Let them know what's going on. Yes, that
way we can take care of the burglaries

and the Klan in one meeting.

Yeah, and you know, we better tell the
other tenants. I mean, what if they get

mixed up with them by mistake?

Oh, I can't imagine anyone in this
building stupid enough to do that.

Tom, glad to see you.

Glad you could come. Thank you. This is
my right -hand man, Stanley Heron.

Hello. Hi, Stanley.

You must be George.

Actually, I'm Harry Bentley.

You know, I've never been mistaken for
Mr. J before.

Much shorter than I am.

George had a small problem in one of his
cleaning stores, so he may be a little

late, but he's behind you all the way.

He should give a real spark to things.

Great, great. He's the kind of man we
need.

But I think we should get started. Take
your seats. Oh, thank you. All right,

everyone, please take a seat.

Thank you.

All right, if I can have your attention,
please.

All of you are here tonight for the same
reason.

You're looking for an organization that
can protect your belongings and your

lives. Well, it's my pleasure to
introduce to you a man who represents

an organization.

Mr. Herbert Purcell.

Thank you, Stan.

Friends, we have a serious problem on
our hands.

There are undesirables around us who are
up to no good.

They are trying to take away what is
rightfully ours.

And I, for one, am sick and tired of it.

I'm sorry to say that these unsavory
elements have now gotten into our

They have invaded our homes.

And it's time we stood up and said, no
more.

No more.

Now, I belong to an organization that is
dedicated to protecting our rights.

However, through the years, this
organization has been misunderstood and

misrepresented by the various media.

So before you jump to any preconceived
conclusions, please hear me out. Now...

to get the scum out of this building.
Right on, bro.

I can't believe this.

Oh, I told you this little guy is
dynamite. You tell him, George. No, no,

no. You listen to these guys because
they are talking my language.

You've got to get people like that out
of here.

You're damn right we've got to get
people like that out of here. And the

way we're going to do it is by joining
together.

You're not joining anything. This
happens to be a KKK meeting.

You bet it is. And everybody in here is
proud to be... Pardon me, Jay, what?

The scum we're trying to get out of this
building is you, boy.

Boy! Boy!

No violence, Mr. Jay, no violence. We
are dedicated to white supremacy, but

through violence.

Oh, that's all you bigots have ever
taught is violence. Tom, that's the old

plan, not the new plan.

The garbage still stinks, no matter how
fresh it is. Good one, Mr. Jay.

Okay, you want to talk about garbage,
I'll tell you what's garbage.

The people on welfare living off white
people's money, that's garbage.

The people who are robbing white stores,
tearing down white schools, there's

your garbage, mister. You, you and your
kind, you personify garbage.

None of that is true. You just hope by
saying it enough times, people will

to believe it. You don't know what
you're talking about, Tom.

Oh, really? Well, for your information,
I happen to be married to a black woman.

I'm sorry, you are a black man. Now get
out of here.

And take that foreigner and your nigger
-loving friend here with you.

That's enough. Hold it right there. It's
one thing hearing it from you.

But when you start feeding that trash to
your kid... My son knows the truth and

isn't afraid to speak it. Now, we'd
appreciate it if you'd leave, because we

don't like talking to Negroes. Don't
worry, you don't have to do no talk with

fist shoved out of your throat.

And you call me violent?

Well, you are living proof that white is
right, that we are superior, that white

supremacy is the salvation of this
country.

Dad!

Dad!

Oh, no.

It's his heart.

He's got a bad heart. You took the CPR
course, kid. Help him. I don't know. We

left early.

Does anyone know what to do?

Please.

Get out of the way. Get out. Get out.

Come on, wake up.

Well, Benny, go find help, quick. Right.

Come on.

You bastard.

Mr. J., do you realize what you've done?

Yeah, a real stupid thing.

No, you saved a man's life.

That guy don't deserve to live.

Oh, George, I know he's despicable, but
everyone deserves to live.

You did the right thing.

Oh, yeah? Then why do I feel like I just
got kicked in my stomach?

You don't know, Willis.

He wouldn't like nothing better but to
see me swinging at the end of a rope.

But for a second, you forgot that and
just saw another human being.

Yes, and that makes you a better man
than he can ever hope to be.

Mr. J., you breathed... the life back
into him.

I should have inhaled.

Um, Mr. Jefferson.

What do you want?

Well... I just... I just wanted

to thank you for saving my dad's life.

Oh, forget it.

How you doing, Dad?

I'm tired, son.

Real tired.

Well, we'll get you to the hospital. You
can rest there.

Yeah, we can ride down with you.

No, no. You two stay here and continue
the meeting. It's important to the

Dad.

Well, the paramedic said if Mr.
Jefferson hadn't given you CPR, you

have made it.

He saved my life?

Yeah.

You should have let me die.

See that?

They never change.

You saved their life and they still
don't change.

Come on, let's get out of here.

Now, as we were saying, the purpose of
the Ku Klux Klan is to promote white

supremacy and preserve our inalienable
right to maintain racial dignity.

We are constantly bombarded by cries for
minority rights. We hear about black

rights, Latin rights.

Well, what about white rights?

Don't worry, Dwayne. They'll be back
soon enough. They'll see we're right.

The white race has got to stick
together.
