All language subtitles for The Jeffersons s08e19 Guess Whos Not Coming to Dinner

Well, we're moving on up. Moving on up.
To the sun. Moving on up.

To a deep.

was your day? Fantastic.

I bought something today. I always want
it.

Now, George, I told you I will not hang
a laughing moose head in this living

room. I know, and that's your law. But I
know you're gonna like this because

it's real classy.

Ta -da!

Ah, a bottle of wine. How nice.

We'll have it with dinner. With dinner?

Where's your coof?

One does not have a bottle of $500 wine
with dinner.

$500?

Why did you pay that much for just one
bottle of wine?

Because it's a classy thing to do.

Anyway, this wine will pay for itself
the first party we have here.

How? I will show you. Okay. Now, we got
all the guests sitting around, right?

So then I whip out this bottle of wine,
and they start whistling.

Oh, Jefferson's got class.

That Jefferson nose is great.

Talking about buck.

You forgot one.

That jackass paid $500 for that stuff.

See, that's where you're mistaken,
Weaves, because they're not going to

much the jackass paid for it.

It's bad manners to brag.

Well, what if someone asks the price?

Well, I just say, hey, look, if you've
got an ass, it means you can't afford

And if you want to know what it is you
can't afford, it's $500.

Real class, George.

You bet. Where should I put this?

Don't tempt me, George.

Look, Winston.

Here's the perfect spot.

Look, get rid of this cheap booze.

This wine has history.

It should be treated with respect,
honor, and reverence.

Especially since this garbage cost me
500 bucks.

I mean, it's nonstop. Ralph, do this.
Ralph, do that. I'm sick of it.

Ralph, it sounds like you don't like
your work.

I love my work. It's the people I work
for who nauseate me.

Oh, in that case, I guess I'm lucky.

Because I like my bosses.

As a matter of fact, I consider myself
part of the family.

What?

Nothing, nothing.

As long as that little fantasy helps you
through the day.

Well, no, it's true.

I mean, they're my friends. That's why I
bought them these donuts.

Oh, Florence.

Florence.

There are two kinds of people in this
world.

Employers and dirt.

Well, I've had enough.

It's about time I stood up and told
these rich so -and -sos exactly what I

of them.

Ah, the Jeffersons, my favorite tenant.

Hey, Ralph.

Thanks for bringing up the cleaners. My
pleasure, sir. I live to serve.

Careful, they're heavy. Oh, hey, you're
right.

Hey, we hang these up.

My,

I seem to have broken out into a sweat
from carrying up that ton of clothing.

course, knowing it's yours, it felt like
only half a ton.

Uh -huh. Well, in that case, how about
half a tip?

Mr.

Jefferson, half a tip.

That's it, Ralph. Very good.

Hey, you two. I brought home some
donuts.

Oh, thank you, Florence.

Now, here's a glazed one for you because
you are so sweet.

Here's a French chocolate for me because
I'm ooh -la -la.

And for you, let's see.

Here's a little one with nothing on top.

Helen, I told you I smelled donuts.

Sit down and join us.

Oh, I'm sorry.

Florence just came from the bakery.

And I bought a dozen assorted for you.

Oh, thank you, Florence. For me?

For us.

Anyway, thank you, Florence. That was
very thoughtful of you.

Oh, with nothing. I like doing little
things for nice people.

Oh, in that case, get me some coffee.

And sometimes I have to do nice things
for little people.

I was just sniffing, sweetheart.

All right, now.

Florence is in the kitchen.

So, what's the plan?

Plan what plan?

We're having a little surprise party for
Florence tonight.

A surprise party?

Does she know about it?

There's no special occasion.

It's just that she's our friend, and we
think she should have a special day.

She's already got one. Halloween.

Anyway, Jenny is upstairs right now
putting the finishing touches on the

So... Wait a minute, wait a minute.
Look, did you know about this?

How come nobody told me?

Well, because you can't keep a secret,
George.

What do you mean I can't keep a secret?

Remember the time you told your wife you
were working late?

And you and me went to see the female
mud wrestler.

I kept that a secret.

I'll explain it later, dear.

You certainly will.

And you will. I never told none of your
secrets either.

Remember that time you bought her that
blouse with the bullfight on it? Well,

yes. Helen told me she lost it.

See, I never told him you gave it to the
bag lady.

Why, Helen, that blouse cost $48.

You told me it was $148.

I never said nothing about that either.

And we, remember that time we went up to
the Willis's to see their new

wallpaper?

All right.

You can keep a secret.

As long as that's understood.

Okay, now what we have to do is figure a
way to get you two upstairs. But we

have to stall Florence long enough so we
can all hide and yell surprise.

Any ideas?

Helen.

Tom.

George.

Weest.

Well, I know all your names.

I was just wondering what you were
whispering about.

Uh, let me handle this, okay?

Uh, look, Florence, see, the Willisons
are having a dinner party tonight for

their special friend, so they came down
to invite us. Oh, that's terrific. What

should I wear? Nothing. You ain't
invited.

No problem.

Very smooth, George.

Florence, he didn't mean that. That's
right. Of course you're invited.

Oh, good.

Well, what time? Right now? No. I mean,
Helen and I are going upstairs, and

George and Louise are going with us.

So the meal should be ready in about an
hour, so you can come up and serve us.

Serve? Well, you wouldn't mind, would
you, Florence? I mean, that way you can

join us for dessert.

Oh, sure.

Fine. Thank you.

Great. Oh, boy, you're going to be
serving fried ribs.

Well, we'll see you upstairs then in
about an hour, okay?

Okay. I'll be there.

Yeah, I'll be there when Popeye becomes
Pope.

for $1 ,000 and a trip for two to
Hawaii.

Name a famous Rudolph.

Hello, Florence.

I overlooked a piece of Mr.

Jefferson's dry cleaning, so I rushed it
right up here.

He ain't home, Ralph.

Actually, I took my time.

Oh, no, I couldn't accept a gratuity
from a fellow worker.

Then again, I wouldn't want to insult
you.

Well, thanks for your trouble, Ralph.

Florence, has something got you down?

I just had a rude awakening.

I just found out that the Willises and
the Jeffersons don't think of me as

anything but a maid.

Ah, that's rough.

Listen, take this back.

That's a dime, Ralph. I gave you a
quarter.

I know, but this way, both of us will
have something to feel good about.

So, how did you come to the realization
that you're dirt?

Well, the Willises are having a dinner
party tonight for some of their special

friends. And let me guess.

The name Florence Johnston did not
appear on the guest list.

Bingo.

I'm sorry, Florence.

But welcome to the club.

I'll never forget the day I found out I
was less than nothing.

It was just my second day on the job.

I held the door open for Mr. Whittendale
and said, Good morning, sir.

Lovely day, isn't it?

And he said to me, How could that
possibly matter to you?

But what happened to me hurt even worse.
I mean, I got snubbed by people I

thought were my friends.

It was bad enough that the Willises did
it, but the Jeffersons were standing

right there.

They knew I was hurt.

They didn't say a word.

Well, I tried to warn you, kid.

But you had to find out on your own that
your employers can't be your friends.

Yeah, my friends are upstairs eating
prime rib, and I'm down here eating Mrs.

'Reilly's frozen fish part.

I love her pork part.

You know, they even had the nerve to ask
me to serve, and then I could stay

after for dessert.

Ain't that a blip?

Those heartless.

Unfeeling? If it's cake, will you save
me a piece?

Ralph, I ain't going up there.

They can have their old dinner party
without me.

They'd rather have it that way anyway.

Yeah.

Who needs them?

Florence, I think this occasion calls
for a toast.

To what?

To your awakening.

Florence, you may be dirt, but by God,
at least now you know it.

What do we got to drink?

Well, is wine okay?

Perfect.

Oh, I don't know about that.

That belongs to Mr. Jefferson.

He'll never miss it.

Besides, you bought him a box of donuts,
I'd say you're even.

Right.

Hey, is that supposed to be some of that
good wine?

Well, let me say this.

You can always tell a good $20 bottle of
wine.

How? It's $15 better than this one.

To you, Florence.

No, to me and you.

To all the people who do the dirty job
for the people who eat prime rib.

To the unappreciated.

The mish understood.

What? I didn't understand you.

I said, to the mish understood.

Oh, yeah.

To the common man, the underdog, the
pheasants, and the town dradden.

So, are you going to eat that fish part
or what?

To Mrs.

O 'Reilly, laving away in the kitchen,
freezing gills and

fins and a whole bunch of her own part.

To Mrs.

O 'Reilly, this drug's for you.

Oh, no, Ralph.

I thought I was a friend of the
Jettisons.

I mean the justice room.

No, folks will live here.

What you doing, Ralph?

Probing for change.

Go ahead.

I don't know.

I cook for them. I clean for them.

I even darn the hose in that little
man's sock.

And for what, Lawrence?

For what?

For the last time, Ralph, I ain't gonna
tell you what the justices pay me.

Ah, what's the diff? The point is, do we
get respect?

Hecky no.

You got it, sister.

I mean, I mean, day in, day out, it's
nothing but, Ralph, bring this.

Ralph, fetch that.

Ralph, unzip this.

Unzip?

That's the divorcee in 4C.

I didn't mean to let that slip.

Ralph. Don't worry, nothing happened.

Well, you was probably just tired.

I can't believe they don't like me.

How could I be so wrong?

I just wish that... That was the way I
could show them people just how hurt I

am.

Tell them.

I don't know.

Tell them. You think so?

Tell them.

All right.

I will.

It's your decision.

Right. It's my decision.

And I've decided to march right up there
and tell them people that I've been

pushed too far.

Beautifully put, Florence.

As a fellow working person, let me open
that door for you.

It would be an honor.

Thank you.

Go get them, Flo.

Give them a piece of your mind.

Right, Raph.

I wonder who the new maid will be.

Jenny, you did a beautiful job with the
cake.

Oh, thank you. I wanted it to be
perfect.

Oh, it looks so good, it's almost a
shame to eat it. No, it is not.

In fact, I see the piece I want.

Now, you guys can have the wee, and I'll
eat Love You, Florence.

Oh, Tom, just calm down and please take
off that silly hat.

Come on, Ellen. This hat is fun.

I just love the sound it makes when I
go... Hey,

Will, as long as you take off your belt,
I like the sound your belly makes when

it hits the floor.

You know, Helen, it was really nice of
you to do all this for Florence. Well,

she's such a dear person.

And we just wanted her to know how much
we appreciate her. We got some presents,

and Jenny even designed an outfit for
her. Oh, yeah, I hope she likes it.

It's very elegant, and I think she'll
look beautiful in it.

Oh, does it cover her face?

No. Back to the drawing board.

Now, listen, everybody.

When Florence rings the bell, I'm going
to turn out the light, and then we can

all hide and yell, Surprise!

What do you say?

I say, where's Florence?

There's a prime rib just drying up in
the oven.

Oh, my, Daddy's getting that look in his
eye again.

Well, it is getting late. George, maybe
you should go and find out what's

keeping Florence.

I know what's keeping her.

Preservatives.

Never mind. I'll go.

Good evening.

Oh, Florence!

Sorry I'm late.

Florence! Oh, no.

Yes, tis I.

So sorry to disappoint you. Well, yes.
We were hoping you'd ring the bell so we

could hide.

You people don't even have the teeth.

to be subtle.

Well, if you'd be so kind as to sit
down, I've got something I'd like to get

my chest.

I hope it ain't hair.

Go ahead.

Put me down.

That's all you've ever done.

Florence, you're drunk.

Sure, I'm drunk.

On the outside.

But on the inside, I'm blotto.

Well, I'll get it.

You want to know why I've been drinking?

Because I'm hurt.

I realize I'm just an employee, but I've
got feelings.

Ralph said he feels the same way as me.

That was Ralph on the phone.

He said, don't listen to Florence. She's
drunk.

Florence, what's all this about?

What this is about?

This is about time I told you people
off.

So here goes.

You.

And you.

And you.

And you and you.

You people are the best.

And I love you.

Why don't you like me?

Uh, Florence, I think there's something
we should tell you. You don't have to

tell me nothing.

Tonight told me everything I need to
know.

Look at that cake.

Yeah, just look at it.

We love you, Florence.

cake mean for me?

Huh?

Surprise.

What's going on up here?

This was supposed to be a surprise party
for you.

For me?

My.

Like the cake says, we love you.

Well, I thought... I mean... Thank

you.

Thank you.

After

the

way I behave, I feel... Hungry?

No.

And seeing how y 'all feel about me
makes me feel... Hungry?

No.

Warm inside.

Ooh, that could be hunger.

Let's eat.

I'll go crack open a bottle of wine.

Oh, no wine for me, thanks. I had enough
wine already.

Oh, me and Ralph drank that bottle of
wine you had on the bar.

The White Country 500.
