All language subtitles for Ghosts 05x05 T-Daddy [2025-11-13 20-31] uswcbs HQ

I'm sorry, what are we... Don't talk
while we're waiting for the gurgle. It's

very rude.

Sorry.

Will it definitely...

What does she mean she doesn't want it?
Are you sure you don't want to keep the

car, Abby?

Trevor's just having a little trouble
wrapping his head around anyone turning

down a free Porsche.

It's a very kind gesture. I just, um,
the car is a little bit, uh... Douchey?

Exactly. Douchey? The founder of Hooters
drove one of these. It is pure class.

I can't get over the fact that a ghost
has Porsche money. We're barely scraping

by. I didn't add guac to my Chipotle
order last night. Also, honestly, it's

way too expensive, GD.

GD's short for ghost dad. I suppose it's
better than fished out of a lake dad.

Okay, so I swung big.

But I missed out on the first 25 years
of her life.

I mean, amortized over 200 nights of
Hanukkah? This is barely anything.

Anyway, I should get to work, because I
don't like being more than one hour late

for my shift.

You know I'm your boss, right?

Yeah, but GD pays my salary.

Ooh! She's selectively entitled.

I like it. So, do you need help
returning the car now, Trevor?

I'm not returning this car, Sam.

Have you heard of depreciation? I sell
this, I'm gonna take a bath.

No, no. I'll keep it. You can't drive.

Whatever. It'll be my sitting Porsche.

Feel that supple leather on my bare
tusses?

What's he say?

He's gonna keep it as his sitting
Porsche.

Again, no guac.

None.

Guac -less.

Chef, I hate to do this, but I've got to
talk to you about that race again.

Oh, sorry, Cobra. It's not really a good
time.

I'm going to pinch.

Dolphins blew my parlay, and I need some
scratch.

He's going to Turkey to get a hair
transplant.

You hate when gambling is your cover
story.

You did say after three months you would
evaluate our salaries.

I'm with Amanda.

You need to pay these people a living
wage, Jeremiah.

I thought we'd be in a better position
than we are today, but unfortunately...

We're not.

Look, we're all hurting. I ate a very
dry burrito last night.

Ooh, a dry burrito?

That's harsh.

I'm back on Jeremiah's side.

We had so many unexpected expenses.

We had to fix the roof because the
stripper crashed through it. That's an

I'll never get out of my head. The
blood, the glitter, the penis straws

about. We don't talk about it in front
of you guys, but Sam and I are barely

keeping our heads above water.

I'm sorry, boss. I didn't know.

If you sign up for the rewards program,
Burrito Barn gives you free guac on

National Avocado Day.

Well, thank you, Gabe. That doesn't
solve the bigger problem, but I will be

doing that.

Look at this thing. So ostentatious.

I'm going to move it around back.

Trevor says it has over 500 horses in
it.

My only question is, how do they crush
the bones into such perfectly rounded

curves? I don't get fancy cars.

I just want something that gets me from
point A to point B.

Wow. The seat really hugs you.

Yes. Embrace the opulence.

Oh, my.

The leather is so supple. That's it.
Feel the woodstone coursing through your

veins. Wait. Do these seats have a
massage function?

Coming.

Is it unusually bright in here?

No? Well, my eyes must still be
adjusting.

As you know, I'm a denizen of the
basement now.

I must have grown accustomed to the
dark, though, these many weeks.

It's been two days.

What? But it has been eventful. Abby now
knows Trevor's a ghost. Oh, how are you

enjoying that, Trevor? Are you loving
getting to know your daughter?

Yeah. I mean, yeah.

I believe those are my exact words when
the minister asked me if I'd take this

woman to be my lawfully wedded wife.

Yeah, Trev, that didn't sound very
enthusiastic.

I'm thrilled Abby's in my life. I love
that we're getting to know each other.

But is it me, or does she just seem sort
of aimless?

What do you mean?

What are her goals?

She majored in French poetry, she's
working this dead -end job, and she's

turning down free cars.

Well, speaking as a guy who knows a
thing or two about aimless girls.

Because that little girl shot you.

Right. How long have you been waiting to
use that quip? It'll be 16 years in

February. It has proven very hard to
work into conversation.

But the point, Trevor, is Abby's young.
She'll figure things out. I just hate to

see her waste her life.

Oh, Papa Trev, just talk to her.

Tell her about your concerns.

No, I don't want to be the annoying,
nudgy dad. I want to be the cool ghost

By the way, ghost dad, underrated Bill
Cosby movie.

If only he were here to help guide me.

America's dad.

Am I right? Great actor, better man.

Hey, guys.

Why don't you have Samantha talk to her?
Trev is worried about Abby's lack of

direction, but he doesn't want to seem
like a nag.

That's where you come in.

Yes, you can find out what her goals
are.

See if she has any dreams. Point her in
the right direction, you know?

Give her the full Cosby.

Okay, I feel like some information
didn't filter down to the ghost

but I hear you regarding Abby, and I'm
happy to talk to her.

Maybe I could take her for a spin in the
convertible.

Yeah, whatever.

Or lunch or a walk.

Cool. Been in the convertible it is.

Saw you went there on a teen tour.

Nice. How was it?

Istanbul?

It was cool.

I don't know, it was a long time ago.

Yeah, well, I might go just to check it
out.

Not for any kind of medical procedure.

Hop in, kid.

Let's ride.

Do so at your own risk, Abby. This
lady's a terror behind the wheel.

What up, Cobra?

Broke my ass.

Slow down, Sam. Some of us can't buckle
in.

Well, the talk with Abby went great. You
don't have to worry. She's got goals.

In fact, I think you're going to really
love what she wants to do with her life.

She wants to get a degree in finance.

What? Oh, Trevor must be loving this.

Oh, Trevor, this is great.

She's following in your capitalist pig
footsteps.

I can't believe this. I know. It seems a
little out of character, but she's

really into it. She says it's always
been a dream of hers. Oh.

Hi. Oh, Abby. I just told Trevor about
your plans to go to grad school, and he

is very excited.

Really? I wish my living dad felt the
same. He doesn't want to pay for it.

That's ridiculous.

Why wouldn't Pinkett's want her
following in his footsteps?

Trevor's very supportive.

In fact, you tell her I'm going to pay
for it. Really?

He says he's going to pay for your
tuition.

Seriously? How does a ghost have so much
money? Meanwhile, I'm wearing pants

that a guest left behind.

I gotta say, they look better on you
than they did on Linda. I can't accept

that.

Too big a gesture.

Sam, please, tell her I want to do this
for her. If she can't accept the car, at

least take this. He won't take no for an
answer.

All right.

Thank you, Ghost Dad.

Wow.

You know, when I tell most people that I
want to go to Paris to study French

poetry, they think I'm crazy, but not
you.

You get it.

What did she say?

Oh, my God. I'm going to go look for
Brace, but thank you, Ghost Dad.

Sam, what the hell's going on?

Explain. I have no idea. In the car, she
said, I want to get a degree in

finance. Oh, I think I see what
happened.

Sort of a hilarious misunderstanding.

What I really want to do is get a degree
in France.

Right on.

Are you going a little fast?

You want me to give it some gas?

Okay.

Unbuckle goes back here.

She said she wanted to get a degree in
France. But what I'm realizing now is

thought she said a degree in finance.

Sam, what did you do?

I'm sorry, but the way... in the roar of
the engine. It was all so loud.

Why were you revving it so much?

Because the big dog's gotta eat.

This is a nightmare, Sam.

My daughter is going to throw away her
life with a focaccia degree in French

poetry, and I'm paying for it. Trevor,
don't worry.

Your daughter's gonna have some of the
best sex of her life in France.

I don't think that's helpful here,
Flower. You know, the French invented

menage a trois.

Fun fact, it's only a menage a trois in
the menage region of France. Otherwise,

it's just a threesome.

Sam, you have to take this.

Oh, I don't think I should get any more
involved.

Take that, put it on a post -it, jam it
on your mirror. That's the new house

motto. In Germany, they call threesomes
u -ba -bang.

Sam, you are involved.

This whole thing is your fault.

It's all the engineers in Stuttgart. Why
do they have to tune the darn engine to

purr so loud?

Wait, you're driving the Porsche?

Why is everyone else living like a king
while I'm wearing knockoff juicy?

Hey, Sam, you tell him they're hugging
his curves just like the real thing.

Look, I personally think it's fine for
Abby to pursue her passion, but I'm not

the one paying for it. If you disagree,
then you need to be honest with her.

This is tough.

I really think that she's throwing away
her life, but if I'm honest with her...

I'm no longer the cool dad.

Look, take it from another cool dad.
Stop right there, Pete. Cheerfully

withdrawn. Either be okay with her
following her passion or tell her how

really feel. You don't have any other
choice.

For what it's worth, Bela has a ton of
stupid degrees and she turned out okay.

mean, she did get fired from a cat cafe
and tried to sleep with several ghosts.

You know what? I don't know what point
I'm trying to make. I should get back to

Mahesh. Okay, well, I'll drive you.

It's like a hundred yards. Yeah, but you
know, it's like hot or cold out.

Whatever. Just shut up. I'm driving.

Man, I sure hope Jay's butt rhinestones
don't scratch the leather seat.

Wait a second.

Bela, that's how I fix this.

What do you mean? We got a walking,
talking, cautionary tale right under

roof.

Let's scare the French poetry right out
of Abby.

No! They bought a 911?

Yeah, those things are pricey. I once
spent 500 bucks just to rent one for a

date. I told this chick I was the heir
to the Baskin -Robbins fortune.

Why does ice cream always feature so
prominently in neosexual ploys?

This is total bullcrap. Shep told us he
has no money and his wife is driving a

$200 ,000 sports car?

Oh, and did you see his pants today? I
think there were diamonds on them. We

don't have to stand for this.

Oh, dear. We should do something.

Totally. This is all chillingly
familiar.

Please, ma 'am. An extra three pennies a
week would really help. Three pennies?

That's outrageous.

Do you think we're made of money?

Well, then what about at least cutting
back some of the hours in the factory?

I've heard of a rumor about a new thing
called a weekend.

The answer is no. You shall not be
getting a raise, not now and not ever. I

already said that you're welcome to eat
any wraps that you find. You people are

relentless.

Then maybe we'll have to do something
about it.

Like what?

Like maybe we'll form a union.

Union. Union.

We should form a union.

No!

We should get medical and certain
elective procedures should be covered So

heard you're studying in Europe that's
so exciting What's going on? Trevor

texted Bela to tell Abby about the time
when she studied abroad.

Oh, that's nice. To get her all excited
about the experience?

No, to scare the crap out of her. Bela
doesn't know that's my intent, but

hopefully her hot mess misadventures
will speak for themselves.

I am really excited.

So you also went to school in Europe?

Mm -hmm. I studied pottery in Greece.
That is incredible.

So did your pottery degree lead to
anything? Did you get a job in your

Well... Not in my field, per se, but I
did get a job in a field picking olives.

See, I was dating this Greek guy from
the moped rental place.

Anyways, we went to Delphi, and then
Stavros stole all my money and my

So I had to work for two weeks to pay
for my train ticket.

And that, my friends, is why you always
carry traveler's checks. Pete, I'm

really enjoying this new relationship,
but too many of our conversations

traveler's checks. Not possible.

That's a little intense, but...

Overall, you're really happy you went,
right?

Financially? No.

Professionally? Of course not. But the
good news is you can't get hepatitis A

twice. Hey, guys.

Trevor's trying to get Baylor to scare
Abby out of going to Europe. Why would

you tell her that?

Remember in 2006 when you noticed that
stain on my dress and you called me Al

Derta? Oh, come on. That was one burn 20
years ago. We're here for eternity.

All I have are my grudges. Oh, my God,
Trevor.

What's going on? Abby, I'm just going to
come clean with you because obviously

your father is too scared to do it
himself.

In the car, because of the turbocharged
roar of the engine, I thought you told

me you wanted to get a degree in
finance, not in France.

Sam, stop this right now. Wait, so
that's why Trevor offered to pay for my

tuition? Yeah, and now he's trying to
get Bela to scare you off. What? I

I was pumping her up. No, you're a
cautionary tale. Sorry.

Oh, no. A cautionary tale would have
been what happened to me in Ibiza.

I boarded a literal pirate ship.

So you don't support me, and you're too
lame to be honest.

That's great, Trevor.

Abby, wait.

Sam, look what you did.

Damn it.

Ooh, Stavros is on Facebook.

He looked good for 61.

And she just run -requested him.

I wonder if he's still married.

Ooh, watch out watching.

Does it have Momoa or no Momoa?

It's Formula One automobile race.
Samantha demanded we watch.

Come on.

Accelerate out of the turn, Leclerc.
What is this, amateur hour?

This Porsche has become her entire
personality.

Okay, that's crazy.

And it's Porsche. A lot of people don't
know that.

Sam, what were you thinking?

She told Abby that I didn't want her
studying in France.

But you don't want her studying in
France.

Yeah, but I was trying to blow that up
without Abby getting upset with me.

Trevor, I'm sorry for calling you out,
but you hit a nerve, okay?

What are you talking about?

I was raised by a very controlling
mother who was constantly tricking me

doing what she wanted. I was trying to
keep her from making a mistake.

But that's not the way to go about it,
Trev.

Look, I had the craziest dream of all,
to go to New York and to be a star, but

my dad was my biggest supporter.

And that always meant a lot to me. You
ended up getting murdered.

Later. It was good for a while.

My father wanted me to marry a woman.

And then I did.

It's not a great story, nor a great
marriage. But those are the facts.

His point is a parent pushing someone
into doing something they don't want to

will just lead to resentment.

No, I was just talking because I felt
left out. But yes, apparently it was

relevant. Look, Trevor.

You can try to steer Abby in the
direction that you think is right, but

ultimately it's her life.

She's going to live it. You make your
case, and then she decides.

So you're saying I should just be
honest?

Yes. You can't handle her with kid
gloves.

Speaking of which, I'm going to go buy
some driving gloves.

You have a problem, girl. Oh, I know.

They say you can't outrun your problems.

But I'm going to try.

Oh, man, this is not good.

Why don't they just hire some goons to
violently bust the strike?

You can't do that anymore, Hedy. What
has happened to this country? This is

because of that stupid car. They think
we're loaded.

Why don't you just sell it?

I mean, the optics will certainly be
better, and then maybe you can use some

the money to pay the staff more,
including your hard -working manager.

Now you're asking for more? Well played,
Bela. Besides, I can't sell the car.

Because his wife loves it more than she
loves him? Trevor correctly anticipated

that we might want to sell it, so he
registered it under a false name with

offshore LLC.

Aruba. Great Beaches.

Famously permissive financial
regulations. Only Trevor knows the

pantsless bastard. He's like an evil
genius.

I know.

So hot.

I mean, bummer.

I mean, how long does it take to
complete a wordle? It's belled, damn it.

Belled, you absolute simpleton.

Oh, it's gilled.

My bad.

Abby, I'm with Trevor, and he wants you
to know that he's sorry for not being

honest with you.

Thank you, Trevor.

But he still doesn't think you should go
to France and study poetry. He thinks

it's a waste of time.

He may be saying that, but in another
way, he's telling me to go.

Okay, I'm very confused.

What do you mean?

Trevor died when he was very young. He
missed out on so many experiences.

I've seen too many people not live long
lives.

Not just Trevor.

My mom died young.

I want to have fun while I still can.

Will going to France advance my career?
Probably not.

But it'll be a sick time.

Ben Franklin gave half a pair of
gonorrhea.

Talk about a sick time.

Trevor, I'm not going to France to waste
my life.

I am going there to live it.

You know what? She's right.

You never know what's coming around the
corner. You could get sick or hit by a

bus. Or eat two random pills from your
friend's secret drug drawer. Exactly.

can make all the right decisions. But
when it's your time, it's your time.

Sam, tell Abby...

She should study in France, and I will
pay for it. Abby, he says you should

study in France, and he will pay for it.

Really?

That's a lot of money.

Oh, I can always sell the Porsche.

Oh, he says you might have to take out
some loans.

What? Sam?

Yeah, that's okay. I can do that.

Sam? Okay, fine. He says you'll pay for
the whole thing.

And it's Porsche Shaw. Damn it.

Why are they still out there? We sold
the porch.

That's what happens with these things.

It starts out with them wanting an extra
helping of gruel, and then the next

thing you know, they want an 18 -hour
workday.

Hedy, how did you end the strike back in
your day? Well, it felt wrong to bring

in the goons against the children.

So we were forced to pursue more
creative solutions.

Unfortunately, we cannot increase your
wages. The budget simply won't allow it,

but... We have something better than
money to offer.

Is it food? I'm very hungry.

No, no. It's dignity.

You, young man, shall henceforth be
known as the vice president of

Really? Well, then what am I, ma 'am?
You are the chief executive

child person.

Wow! Wow, indeed.

Perhaps it's worth a shot.

No, those were kids. The kitchen staff
are sophisticated adults, right, Jay?

Well... Wow, president of cuisine.

Thanks, Chef.

And Gabe, you're going to be vice
president of... Please say chips, please

chips. Sure, chips.

No way!

Quick, take away their weekends while
you have their goodwill.
