There's no place like home.

With your family around you, you're
never alone.

When you know that you love, you don't
need to roam.

Cause there's no place like home.

Times are changing every day.

We won't get by with old flame away.

No, no. Pulled in together, we'll make
it right. With help from our friends, I

know we can fly. But there's no place
like home.

With your family around you, you're
never alone.

When you know that you love, you don't
need to roam.

Cause there ain't no place like. Better
believe it. There ain't no place like.

mean no place, child.

Mom, do I have to eat dinner at home?

Rochelle's gonna have tons of food at
her party tonight.

Chip and dip is not food, Brenda.

We're not having junk food.

Rochelle's father owns a lunch truck and
he's bringing us all the hamburgers he

didn't sell today.

Have you ever tasted an old hamburger?

You might as well chew a hockey puck.

Besides, Brenda, it's Friday night, and
we're all going to eat together like one

big happy family.

Okay, I'll check the rice.

Thank you, Brenda.

Hey, babe.

Hi, honey.

For you.

Oh, how romantic.

You didn't have to bring flowers.

Oh, yes, I did. You put it right here on
this list below the paper towel.

Shoot, I forgot about your paper towel.
Oh.

But I did stop off and get your favorite
chocolate -covered chair.

Well, that was sweet of you.

I'm crazy about this man.

I get it.

Hey. Hi, I'm sorry to interrupt, but a
rather ticklish problem has surfaced in

my love life.

Well, why don't you get rid of your
feather mattress?

Hey, I'm here because Lester's involved.

Oh? Don't let the sentence stop there.
How am I involved?

You introduced me to Raymond Lindley.
Raymond Lindley? Who's that?

A demolitions consultant from New York
City.

He's in town for a couple of weeks.

That's why I'm here. I'm supposed to go
to the theater with him tonight.

He sure moves fast.

Raymond said when you're in demolitions,
you learn to appreciate things while

they're still standing.

So what's the problem?

Well, he's cute, but he's so boring.

Then why did you agree to go out with
him?

I didn't realize it until my coffee
break. There we were, pressed together

that little coffee room. You know that
room, Lester? What?

I was staring at his sweet and low,
looking right into his eyes.

And he starts talking about his
Winnebago.

You know, I always wanted one of those.

What for?

Hmm, I want a man that moves, not a room
that moves.

You know, Sandra, the man just might
think you're the outdoors type.

Well, if the circumstances are right, I
can be outdoorsy.

Raymond then moved his sparkling
conversation to fishing, talking about

and bait boxes.

What's wrong with that?

James and I used to love to go fishing.

Rose, you sound as boring as he does.

Just too steady for me, you know?

Well, it's a nice trait to have when you
handle dynamite.

So how are we involved in all this?
Well, I left a note telling him that I

to work, so when you see him, back me
up. Wait a minute.

Are you asking Lester to lie for you?
Just a teeny little thing. Look, I'm not

getting in the middle of this. My name
is Bennett, and I ain't in it.

Well, all right, all right.

But if he gets mad and blows up this
whole building, don't blame me.

That poor guy.

Poor guy?

You ask me, you ought to count as
blessings.

It's a shame. He's a nice guy. Kind of
quiet, but very dependable.

Well, anyway, that'll teach you to
introduce Sondra to somebody.

Introduce her? All I said was, hey,
everybody, this is Raymond.

Well, it's no fun getting stood up. I
know because somebody stood me up once.

Lester, you didn't. That was before we
got married. It was just a little

misunderstanding.

Yeah, it was the little miss. I didn't
understand.

I heard that.

Hey,

Raymond. What a surprise.

Glad to see you.

I'm glad someone is.

Sandra and I had plans to go to the
theater tonight, but I guess she had to

work. Well, come on in. Come on in.
Thank you.

Raymond Lindley, meet my wife, Mary.

Hello. And our good friend, Rose
Holloway. Hello, nice to meet you. Rose,

to meet you.

Lester, I'm not going to be using my
theater tickets, so I thought perhaps

and your wife might like to use them.
It's a new play based on a poem by

Hughes. Bernard Hughes?

Oh, I love his work.

As I walk along the beach at night to
the sound of the wind in the forbidding

sea... My thoughts seem to wander and
grope into the furthest corners of my

aching soul.

Go ahead, John.

Well, I'm sure you and Lester would
enjoy it. Oh, no, no, we couldn't

Oh, well, uh...

Rose? Yes?

Perhaps you and your husband would like
to go?

Husband? She's not married. No, she's
not married.

So, that's how I got started.

Oh, that's very interesting.

Took a lot of years of training, though,
but I got to work it in.

Hello?

Hi.

That's Calvin, Pearl's grandson.

Does he always practice out here at
night? Mm -hmm, ever since we threw him

of the hallway.

Well, here we are.

Yes, we are here, aren't we?

Interesting play, didn't you think?

Oh, yes.

Stimulating, intriguing, provocative.

I didn't like it either.

Oh, maybe you'd like to come up?

It's so romantic down here, just the
three of us.

Listen, I'd love to come up, but I
really should get some sleep.

I'm blowing up a neighborhood tomorrow.
Oh, I understand. Well, maybe next time.

Did I say next time? I'm stupid.

No, no, it wasn't.

You know, the truth is, I've had more
fun with you than I've had with anyone

a long time.

Really? Yeah, really.

Listen, I'd love to take you out again,
if it wouldn't be too awkward with you

and Sandra.

The girl's crazy about me.

Oh, yeah.

I'm sure she's just after your
Winnebago.

I'm sure I can work it out with her.

Hey, look, I'm going to be in town next
Saturday night.

What do you say we go see the Jazz All
-Stars?

I'd say okay. I'd love it.

Good.

You got to work on your peripheral
vision, my man, if you're going to make

the pros.

Hey, that's my grandma's basketball.

Mom, I have to be honest.

Washing clothes is not my favorite
thing.

I can't understand everything.

It's at the top of my list.

Right next to sanitizing the toilet.

Did you ever think of sending our
clothes to the laundry?

Yeah, I thought about it. Even tried it
once.

The other way, dear.

And? And I hated it. They lost half your
daddy's socks, charged more per pound

than the butcher, and I didn't even know
the folks they was gossiping about.

Hi, y 'all. Sam Rose. Oh, hi, Rose.

Brenda, why don't you go upstairs and
strip the sheets off your bed?

You washed my shoes yesterday.

Yes, but I, uh, forgot to put the fabric
softener in.

Oh, yeah, fabric softener. That's
probably why I got a stiff neck.

Anyway, I'll find out about Aunt Rose's
date from Tiffany later.

Girl, were we ever that nosy?

I hope not.

So how'd it go?

How'd what go?

The fox hunt with Lady Di.

You know, the fox got away.

How would you like some starch in your
pantyhose?

The date went fine.

Fine?

You go out with the same man.

Two times in one week, and all I get is
fine.

You gave me more details than that about
the wrong number man that keeps calling

you.

Morton, yeah.

Did I tell you Morton's cousin died? He
did. Yes, you did.

Don't change the subject, Rose.

Oh, Mary, it's just that Raymond is so
special.

Special? I can get special at the
supermarket.

How about romantic, captivating,
exciting?

Oh, Mary, he's all that and more. Girl,
he's sensational.

Is he? He must be.

They stayed out till two last night
dining in Georgetown. He's taking her to

lunch today and a party next Saturday.

Is that true?

Every word.

I'm supposed to be your best friend. How
come you told all that to her?

I didn't tell her anything.

I've got my own sources.

You're talking to someone who once
debriefed a KGB agent.

He begged for mercy.

But there is one detail I need to find
out firsthand, if you know what I mean.

Lay off, Sandra. The book is not for
publication.

Oh, please, Mary. I just heard you
thumbing through the table of contents.

That's because I'm her best friend.

And if she's getting serious about
someone, I want to know what his

are. I already know what his intentions
are. I'm just curious if he carried them

out yet.

Sandra, this may come as a big shock to
you, but...

There's something more than sex on
Raymond's mind. I know. He likes

too.

But you have to pull over at some point.

You know, Sandra, there are some
perfectly normal, red -blooded men who

other things on their mind besides
leaping into bed.

Where?

I wouldn't expect you to know where.

Oh, will you please stop it?

For heaven's sake, this is none of your
business. I've only been out with a man

twice.

Well... They say the third time's the
charm.

Hi, ladies.

Mary. Raymond.

Sandra.

I'm sorry you had to work the other
night. Oh, yes. I was crushed.

But I'll carry on.

Oh, please.

Hi. Glad I found you. What, am I late
for our lunch? No, I'm early.

But there's something important I need
to talk to you about.

Oh, okay.

Alone.

Excuse us. Of course.

So what is it, Raymond?

Listen, I just found out I gotta be back
in New York.

I'm blowing up a building for charity.
Oh!

Can I buy tickets?

Actually, it's an old hotel.

But that means we won't be able to go to
that party.

Well, there'll be other parties.

There will be other parties, won't
there?

Of course there will.

You know, it's just that I got to
thinking, maybe we shouldn't break our

Now listen, I can get tickets to a play
I've been planning to see all season.

So what do you say we both go to New
York for the weekend?

New York? Is he out of his mind?

New York. I gave up New York.

What do you say?

You want me to come to New York for the
weekend?

That's right.

I've got a big apartment.

Unless you'd feel more comfortable in a
hotel.

Yes, I guess I would.

Right. Stay in a hotel.

Yeah. Go for the room service, Rose.

It's just that it's not that easy for me
to pick up and go with Tiffany and all.

Now, that's the Rose I know.

Well, then why don't we bring her along?

Go ahead, Raymond.

No, if I decide to go, it'd be best if
she stayed here.

All right, Rose.

Look, I just thought it would be fun,
but if it's going to be a problem, I

understand. Oh, no, Raymond, no.

I... It's just that... Give me some time
to think about it, okay?

You got it.

So, we still on for lunch?

Lunch? Yeah, yeah, that's the one that
comes between breakfast and dinner. Oh,

stop it.

Of course.

Let me get Mary to finish my wash for
me. All right.

Mary, stay.

Go. Stay.

Go.

Well, what's happening in the soap opera
today?

Soap opera? Today's Sunday.

I'm talking about Rose.

Will she go to New York or won't she?

And if she goes, will she or won't she?

Well, I don't think there's any question
about what she ought to do. Well,

that's for sure.

I'd go in a minute myself.

Pearl, I'm just afraid if Rose goes to
New York with Raymond, he won't like her

as much if she, you know... Well, if I
know men, he'll like her more.

I don't know, Pearl. Rose and I have
traditional values.

Well, Mary, you know we all have a bit
of stondry in us.

Well, if I have, I'm calling an
exorcist.

Bye, Henry.

Bye, Bartholomew.

Thanks for love.

Mary Pearl.

I didn't know you went ice skating.

Oh, just enough to fall down so I could
be picked up.

Is Rose packing for New York yet? She's
not going.

Uh -huh. I wonder if she has any
interesting negligees. Or is it all that

flannel stuff like yours?

It's not the flannel, but what's in the
flannel that counts.

Lester must have some kind of
imagination.

Well, when it comes to you, men don't
need imagination.

Your lingerie lights up and says,
welcome aboard the love boat.

When it comes to questions of the heart,
Dr.

Ruth comes to me.

She must be desperate.

Could you get me her autograph?

You know if Rose goes to New York with
Raymond, she'll definitely lose him,

don't you?

Mary, you're in dreamland.

The best way to keep Raymond is to go to
New York. These are the 80s. It was

that way in the 20s, too.

You know, all I'm saying, ladies, is
that there has been no commitment.

And in case you don't know what that
means, Sandra, it's where the man at

knows your last name.

Well, what would you know about it,
Mary? You're married. And you're not.

I assume I'm the subject of this little
debate?

Debate is a cat fight.

I hope you're enjoying yourselves at my
expense.

I'm sorry, Rose. I won't mention it
again.

Nor will I.

Are you going or aren't you?

Oh, Pearl, I don't know. My heart says
go to New York, but my head says stay

home. So send your heart and leave the
rest of your vital organs here.

I thought you were going to keep your
mouth shut. I didn't say forever.

She cannot go to New York with somebody
she's only been out with twice. Mary.

Why? Because he won't respect her in the
morning? That's right, because he won't

respect her in the morning. If you want
respect, bring peace to the Middle East.

But if you want some fun, you pack your
bags and take a bite out of the Big

Apple.

And when you bite the apple, look out
for the worm. Oh, please, will you two

please stop it? I am sick and tired of
you both trying to tell me how to run my

life. Come on.

I can make my own decisions.

That's telling them, honey.

Come on in here. I'm going to make you a
nice hot cup of tea. Thank you, Pearl.

Is our subscription running out?

I have something on my mind.

You want to talk about it?

No. Why should I talk about it? It's
none of my business. It's none of your

business either.

Oh, so you're still bugged about Rose.

She's supposed to be my best friend.

May I come in? Of course.

I've just come to tell you that I'm
going to New York.

Oh, Mary.

Please, no more of your comments.

I just said oh.

Yes, I know, but it's the way you said
it.

Lester, do you believe this?

Yeah, you can put an awful lot into an
oh.

Thank you, Lester.

Rose, do you... Mary, please, I've made
up my mind. Now, not another word.

Okay.

Do you want me to watch Tiffany for you?

Well, maybe one more word.

Yes, thanks.

I'm going down to watch some of her
things now, so she won't be a trouble to

you.

Rose, please marry.

No more advice.

Well, you were a big help.

I figured you'd given her too much
advice already.

Well, do you think she should go off
with Raymond?

And it's none of my business either,
remember?

Oh, Lester.

Mary, come on. We're talking about two
grown people.

Well, would you do something like that?

Hell no. You know what a room in a hotel
costs in New York these days?

Okay. Okay.

I'm being old -fashioned, right?

Mary, the world is changing.

Dating is different than when we used to
do it.

Or not do it.

Maybe you're right. Maybe I'm just a
prude.

Well, I want to know what an old
-fashioned prude like you is doing so

Stop it.

It's Sunday.

See you later.

Rose.

Yes, Mary?

I came to say I'm sorry.

I know I've been acting like dear Abby.

I've been butting into your affairs.

Affairs?

Scratch affairs.

Anyway. I came to say, whatever you
decide, I'm with you.

Not physically.

Physically.

You'll be with him.

In New York.

But I'm with you.

Mary, just because I've accepted
Raymond's invitation to go to New York

mean I'm going to go to bed with him.
Good.

Necessarily.

Oh, Mary, you know I haven't been in
this situation that often, and to be

perfectly honest, I don't know what I'm
going to do.

Well, how do you feel?

A little scared.

But you know, it's so nice to have
someone who cares.

Thanks. I met Raymond.

Of course you did.

And you know, I feel I can care a great
deal about him.

Just like you do for Lester.

Yeah, I guess I do kind of take what
Lester and I have for granted.

Yeah, girl, and I'd love to have
somebody take for granted.

Somebody to...

Share my life with me.

To hold me at night.

And to love me.

Oh, Rose.

Listen, don't pay any attention to me.
Go to New York. Be crazy, be wild, be

passionate. Oh, if I'm going to be all
that, I better take you with me.

Well, I wonder where Rose could be.

Her plane was supposed to land at two.

It's almost four.

It took off a half hour late.

I have a friend in the control tower.

Well, she still should have been here 15
minutes ago.

There was a mix -up with her luggage.

You have a friend at the luggage
counter, too?

Loading and unloading.

Oh, there's her cab.

Quick, act like you don't see her.

Oh, will you look at Miss Barton. She's
got new paisley curtains.

Those aren't curtains.

That's Mrs. Barton.

Well, she'd better get back on her diet.

Hello, ladies.

What are you doing back so soon? I
wasn't expecting you till later.

Oh, no, this is when I'm supposed to be
here.

What are y 'all doing out here?

Oh, we're just enjoying the nice
unseasonal weather.

Oh, any nicer and we could all go sleigh
riding down the Potomac.

I thought you'd never ask. Oh, girl, it
was terrific.

Oh, the play was so funny. Uh -huh. And
we ate at the most charming restaurant.

Uh -huh. And the rest of the time, oh,
the rest of the time, we just walked

around the different neighborhoods
getting to know one another.

Oh, and I know all that walking made you
tired at night, didn't it? Oh, sure,

dear. But you know, there's something so
stimulating about New York City that I

could barely get to sleep at night.

Uh -huh.

Well, that answers all my questions.

Not my...

is that Raymond and I had a wonderful
time, and we're definitely going to see

each other again. Ha!

Just as I thought.

Right. If they're seeing each other
again, I'm sure they have an excellent

reason.

And the excellent reason is that they
still respect each other.

Well, it really doesn't matter, does it?
The most important thing is my life is

more fulfilled.

Of course, Rose.

That is the most important thing.

I told you she did.

She did not.

Well, I'd like to thank you ladies for
caring.

So nice to be talked about.

I told you she did.

She did not. Yes, she did. She did. She
did not.
