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

home.

Times are changing every day.

We won't get by with those same old
ways.

Pulling together, we'll make it right.

With help from our friends, I know we
can try.

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

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

Cause there ain't no place like that.
There ain't no place like that. There

ain't no place like that. There's no
place like home.

I mean, no place, child.

You know what I always wondered?

What?

How does this get zipped up when I'm not
around?

I just call Billy Dee Williams, hops in
his limo, gets right over here.

Oh, shoot. I always thought it was
Belafonte I had to worry about.

You don't have to worry about anybody.

Uh -oh. Kind of frisky tonight, huh?

Brenda's in there doing her homework.

What you think I'm doing?

Oh, shoot.

I promise Rhoda's I'll fix that flush
valve up in Christine's apartment.

You about to kiss me and you think about
a flush valve?

You better be careful.

You're already in trouble.

Inviting a millionaire to dinner at the
last minute.

I didn't say Gus was a millionaire. I
said he went to Hawaii to build condos,

and that was 15 years ago.

He must be a multi -millionaire by now.

Bet I can guess why he called.

Mary, he's my old construction chief.

We were friends.

He called about dinner.

I bet he wants you to run his company.

Mary, aren't you getting a little
carried away?

Yeah, to Hawaii.

Just think, you building condos and me
on the beach, sipping pineapple drinks

with little umbrellas in them, and
saying, Aloha.

Aloha.

Mary, you want some of this popcorn to
go along with that movie?

Hello?

Oh, no, he's not here yet.

Oh, okay.

Senator? I'll tell him.

Senator? Senator who?

Senator James.

He said to tell Gus he called.

Maybe Gus really did hit it big.

Yeah, I better write it down.

Senator James.

Imagine a millionaire who hobnobs with
senators and I'm serving tuna casserole.

Hey, that would never do. I better run
out and get some chili dollars.

Lester, I hate to bother you, but
Pearl's window is stuck again.

Oh, I'm sorry, Rose, but this is not a
good time. But it's an emergency.

I know. With your window stuck, there's
a news blackout in the building.

Oh, Lester, please, just this once.
Well, I'm sorry. We're expecting a guest

dinner. Now, I would have known that if
my window hadn't been stuck.

Well, look, I'll take a look at it.
Mary, it'll only take a second. Come on,

Pearl. Okay.

Don't worry, Mary. I keep the door open.

Rose. Yeah? Sit. Do I have to?

Sit.

Rose, this building needs a lot of work,
and you have got to take care of it.

Now, you've got to take charge. You have
got to make decisions.

I did!

I decided Lester should fix the window.
If you drag my husband out of here one

more time to fix a window or a leaky
faucet or anything, I am personally

to hang you on the wall, put a big frame
around you, and call you a conversation

piece.

Oh, Mary, I know you're right.

I've got to be a better manager.

Now you're talking.

That must be our guest, millionaire
condo builder from Hawaii.

Lady, did you order a pizza?

No, no, I didn't. Well, neither did I.

It's me, Gus.

Huh?

Oh, it's you, Gus.

And you gotta be married.

Yeah, I gotta be married.

Great door, Mary.

Up this wood.

Douglas Byrne, named after David
Douglas.

I'll put up a flag.

Come in, come in. Meet my friend Rose.

Rose!

Nice to meet you.

You know the derivation of your name?

No. It comes from the Latin, Rosa.

Ah, Latin, huh?

No wonder I like those Gucci handbags.

No wonder I like those Gucci handbags.
That's good, Rose. That's real good,

isn't it, good man? Good, good, good.

Oh, I forgot, she had a phone call.

It's from Senator James.

That's Senator.

He won't leave me alone.

Hey, Gus, is that you?

Lester!

Great to see you, old pal.

Good to see you too, Gus.

Now that you got that mustache, think
you can take me? Are you kidding? With

either hand.

Let's do it.

heartwarming seeing two old friends get
together.

Brings a tear to my eye.

Hi, Mary.

Oh, muscles.

How virile, how macho.

I had two men fighting over me like that
once. It was winner take all.

But the winner was too exhausted to
handle the all.

I've only heard a sound like that once
before.

From a hungry tiger stalking her prey.

You sure got her number.

I love a man with a beard and a rubber
band.

Only Sandra would say something like
that.

Rose, I was on my way out, but I knew
you'd be desperate to know about my

My faucet is still dripping.

Jit, jit, jit.

Plop. Jit, jit, jit.

Plop. Waiting for that plop is a killer,
Rose.

Lester, could I ask you... I was just...
Rose!

Rose! I'll handle it, Sandra. Oh, good.

Well, I'll see you around, Gussie. And
don't you change a hair for me.

Or a rubber band, either.

Well, I've got to be going, too. I hope
you have a lovely dinner.

As for me, I have an apartment building
to run.

This is wonderful, Mary.

Really wonderful.

Brenda, you didn't eat your roll.

You can have it.

You see you don't want it?

I'm on a diet.

It started when you ate her fruit
cocktail.

Well, Gus, we've talked about everything
but you and Hawaii.

Yeah, Gus, even I have to admit that I'm
curious.

Of course you're curious. All great
minds are curious. Look at Da Vinci,

Edison. You want your old lessons? Take
it, Gus.

few loaves of bread in the kitchen if
you want some more.

Mary, why didn't you tell me this man
was an empire builder?

A man who turned Hawaii into Condo
Island.

That woman could smell money underwater.

Excuse me, I don't mean to interrupt
your dinner, but I just love those

Hawaiian customs. The grass skirts, the
hula, the free complimentary condo.

Sandra,

What is it you want? I was looking for
Rose. She said she was going to fix my

faucet, but it's still going jip, jip,
jip, plop, jip, jip, jip, stop.

Don't worry, ladies.

I'll take a look at it. Thank you. Hey,
wait a minute, Gus. We didn't invite you

over here to work.

Besides, you haven't had dessert.

Don't worry. I'll be right back. Well,
maybe not right back. My other faucet

goes plop, plop, plop, jip.

You know, I'm beginning to wonder why he
did call me.

Who cares? Quick, let's have dessert.

Wait for me.

Well, you still think Gus wants me to
run his company for him?

Better yet, you still think he has a
company?

I don't know.

He is a little odd.

A little odd? The man's walking around
in a short -sleeved shirt.

It's 30 degrees outside.

Honey, money can do that to some people.
Come on, Mary.

Remember Howard Hughes?

Remember Daffy Duck?

You're going to be very proud of me.
Your landlord made a decision.

Your landlord took action.

Well, now that's what I call a landlord.

And Lester, you won't have to help me
around the building anymore because now

have our very own handyman.

That drip will never plop again.

Gus? Gus?

You hired Gus?

Look how excited she is.

apartment he had just finished fixing
the faucet and i said boy i sure wish i

had somebody like you around and i said
why wish for somebody like me when you

can have the real thing so in exchange
for that efficiency apartment on the

third floor gus is going to be our full
-time handyman gus you're gonna be

living here well what about hawaii mary
mary nothing in life can be more

important than being surrounded by good
friends

You have to fix those cabins in a few
minutes.

Now, that's the same thing he told me
two days ago. He told me the same thing

four days ago.

You know, he starts a job and then
disappears.

Even I don't know where he goes.

You know what? I can't figure out why a
man who gets calls from senators would

take a job like this. And he's been
wearing that same old cockamamie shirt

the week.

I sure hope it's washing wet.

It's been my experience that men who act
this mysterious are always one of two

things. Raving lunatics or married.

Cora told me she heard some weird sounds
coming from his room.

I told her it was coming from your room.

My room is soundproof.

Anyway, I think we ought to tell Rose
about this. You mean General Patton?

She's busy shaking up the whole
building. Next time you give your you

-be -a -landlord speech, do it in some
other town. I can't marry.

She's right, Mary.

Rose is down at the printer's right now,
running off a whole bunch of rules and

regulations.

Pardon me, ladies.

Does Gus Santos have a place here?

Third floor in the rear.

Thank you very much.

Well, I wonder what he wants with us.

I wonder what they all want.

All? Mm -hmm.

You know, since he's been here, seven
people have been up to see him. And you

know something?

Not one of them has ever come down.

want to make it eight girl i'm sure
there's a perfectly rational explanation

well good you go in and if you don't
come out i won't show a pun

would you stop being silly besides i
want to find out what he's up to don't

not anymore

I know why you're here.

Well, you might as well come in.

Oh, a flubber party.

Um, I'll just pop back another time.

No, no, Mary, don't leave.

I want you to meet my friends.

Mary, this is Maggie.

How do you do?

Phil, Terry, Flores, Cousin Ray.

How do, ma 'am? The professor.

Hello.

And Senator James.

You were the senator?

It's nice to be remembered.

I thought you were a real senator.

He was. State senator.

Twice elected.

And once impeached.

Staying for lunch, Mary?

Oh, no, no, no. Oh, come on. We got some
nice kidney beans.

Oh, you're having kidney beans and...
Lima beans.

We're having a bean banquet.

Gus, is she saying we have to leave?

No, no, Maggie. Not to worry.

Oh, no, Maggie, of course not. Listen,
enjoy your visit. It's been all

afternoon. There's no rush.

They're not visiting, Mary. They live
here.

Live here?

Uh, Gus, could I see you in private?

Gus, are you crazy?

You can't have... Oh, excuse me.

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven.

You can't have seven people living in an
efficiency apartment, plus you, which

makes nine.

That's why they call it an efficiency
apartment.

Gus Rose is not going to like this.

I won't tell her if you don't.

She'll get in trouble with the health
department.

Now you've got to send those people back
where they came from.

I can't do that, Mary. These people have
no place to go.

What do you mean, no place to go?

We all come from the same place, Mary.

The street.

The street?

I thought you were a millionaire.

Millionaire?

She thought I was a millionaire.

Why, I'm one of the biggest losers of
all time.

I only talk a good game.

But what about Hawaii and all those
condos? Oh, well, that's a real

story, Mary. I must have heard it a
hundred times, and it still grabs me.

Well. What happened was, 15 years ago,
Gus went to Hawaii with all the money

that he had saved up over the years.

Now, to make a long story short... Oh,
don't make it short. It's a good one.

Mary, it happens every day.

Man has big ideas, boom, man goes bust.

That I could have handled.

But the part I couldn't handle was when
my wife left me. When the money went out

of yours, so did she.

Then Gus came back and... Drifted around
doing all jobs.

Broke and not giving a damn.

Till two weeks ago when he saw his old
friend Lester. Yeah, but Lester didn't

see him.

Nobody sees us. He wouldn't have
recognized me anyhow.

Not then.

I was a mess.

So I got myself cleaned up. Yeah, and he
went to Goodwill and he got that spiffy

shirt.

And the next day he called up Lester
and...

Here we are in paradise.

Gus, I'm so sorry.

It must have been terrible for you,
losing your money and your wife.

Compared to my life, his is a musical.

I don't know what to say, but you can't
stay here. I mean, it's too small, too

crowded. It's not crowded. And there's
the shower.

It's warm.

Better than sleeping in the park.

Or the butt terminal, where they wake
you up in the middle of the night and

they kick you out.

But aren't there shelters?

Oh, yeah, if you're lucky enough to get
in one.

I've never seen it like this.

There are thousands of folks out there.
Got no way to live.

And there are lots of scary people, too.

People not quite right up here, if you
know what I mean.

Lots of them can't take care of
themselves like us.

Some are mothers with children.

Oh, my God.

My teacher, Miss Harper, talked about
the homeless in school.

She said that in a country as rich as
America, nobody should be hungry or

Good for her.

She also said that if she doesn't get a
raise soon, she's going to be one of

those people.

Well, the meat's almost ready.

Let's put the vegetables in.

What are we going to do with them after
we feed them?

I'm hoping your father will come up with
some answers.

Mary, it's Rose!

That's all I need.

Don't say anything about those people.

Aunt Rose won't mind.

Aunt Rose won't mind.

Landlord Rose will have a fit.

Mary, here are the new rules and
regulations of the building.

Oh, good Lord. When is all this cooking
going on? You got guests coming again?

No, it's for the holiday.

What holiday?

St. Patrick's Day.

I just love that holiday. All the little
leprechauns and everything in green.

Mary, St. Patrick's Day isn't until the
middle of March.

That's why we're cooking the meat now.
So it'll be green by then.

Mary, I know you all too well. Now
you're up to something.

Busy, busy, busy.

And we were having such a nice chat.

Mary,

what in the world is going on here?

Either they go or I go.

Good. You go.

Rose and I are having a nice chat.

Sergeant,

what is the problem?

Don't you play dumb with me, Rose. I
always wondered what happened to the

boys and the dead -end kids.

They grew up and moved into Gus's
apartment.

Mary, do you know what she's babbling
about?

Vaguely. There I was, soaking in an
invigorating milk bath.

when suddenly I was invaded by the
dreadful odor of lima beans.

And kidney beans.

I traced the scent to Gus's apartment
and those people.

What people?

Rose, I think we have to have another
talk.

Sit down. Don't you dare sit down, Rose.
My social life is in jeopardy. Get up

there and throw those people out. What
people?

She can't throw them out.

Yet.

Rose, they don't have any place to go.
They live on the street.

Bums? Bums are living in my building?

On my floor.

They're not bums. They're people.

People who have been beaten down by
life.

Yes, but still, Mary. Oh, Rose, I mean,
they don't have any jobs. They don't

have anybody to turn to.

They're not bums. They're human beings.

And they're in trouble.

But, Mary, that apartment is just meant
for one person. They're violating a

dozen housing codes.

I have no choice. I've got... to throw
them out.

Oh, there's one of them now.

Oh, I'm sorry, Mary. I didn't know that
you had company.

Oh, we shouldn't have come, but we just
wanted to see if we could help. Yeah,

and bring you the rest of the beans.

Oh, this is so nice of you, Mary.

I can't tell you how long I dreamed
about having a real home -cooked meal

tablecloth and napkins, just like a
family.

You know, I've got one of my fierce
apple pies to go along with those beans.

Pie?

I'll bring the whipped cream.

More whipped cream, Senator?

Pile it on, my dear. Pile it on.

What about you, Curve?

Oh, yeah.

Sure, long as there ain't no beans.

I don't want to see another bean again
in my life.

Yeah, that's real good, Eddie.

Yeah, I appreciate it.

Uh -huh.

Yeah, I understand.

Thanks for the help.

We got it!

Lester, you're a genius. A genius.

Well, Gus, genius is a strong word, but
it fits.

What happened? What did he do?

Man picked up the phone, calls his
company, found out there's a boarded -up

house that they own that they're willing
to give us for free. If we do the work

on it. And there's a lot of work to be
done.

But my company's willing to donate their
supplies, and I talked to my old

construction chief here, and he's
willing to give the world another

Oh, good for you, Gus.

But there's just one more thing, Gus.

Does this mean that I'm gonna lose my
handyman?

Anytime you got a problem, Rose, just
holler.

After all, a good friend of mine lives
in this building.

And Mary, don't you worry.

I'll still be by to have dinner.

I guess I better start loading in the
supplies.

Hey, I gotta tell the guys about the
house.

Good. Some of those that were trained
are going to be your workforce.

You know, Lester, if we can fix one
house, we can fix others. And maybe we

get all those people off them crummy
streets.

Maybe. I'm going to tell the guys.

I can't wait to see their eyes when he
tells them.

Well, Mary, you were right.

Looks like I'm going to be helping him
run his company.

See what a little hope can do?

How about a pineapple drink with a
little umbrella in it?

Sounds good.

Maybe we can forget about the pineapple.

We better forget about the umbrella,
too.
