00:07:00,513 --> 00:07:03,516
Aw, honey, come on.

158
00:07:03,559 --> 00:07:06,258
If that child won't eat
a chocolate cupcake,

159
00:07:06,301 --> 00:07:08,173
he's sick.

160
00:07:10,523 --> 00:07:12,612
What are you gonna do?

161
00:07:12,655 --> 00:07:14,396
Maybe he's just
sick of chocolate.

162
00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:16,442
I'm gonna try
a vanilla cupcake.

163
00:07:18,357 --> 00:07:21,229
Come here, son.
Daddy wants to
have a look at you.

164
00:07:21,273 --> 00:07:23,623
Dr. Miller had a look at me,
and he's a doctor,

165
00:07:23,666 --> 00:07:25,538
and he says
I'm gonna be very sick

166
00:07:25,581 --> 00:07:27,496
and not go to school
tomorrow.

167
00:07:27,540 --> 00:07:29,324
Mm-hmm. Ritchie...

168
00:07:29,368 --> 00:07:33,154
How would you like
a nice cupcake?

169
00:07:33,198 --> 00:07:34,851
Uh-uh.

170
00:07:34,895 --> 00:07:38,507
This is a nice
vanilla cupcake.

171
00:07:38,551 --> 00:07:39,943
Vanilla?

172
00:07:39,987 --> 00:07:41,771
Yeah, with
vanilla icing.

173
00:07:41,815 --> 00:07:45,079
Vanilla icing?
I like chocolate.

174
00:07:45,123 --> 00:07:47,777
Mm-hmm. All right.

175
00:07:47,821 --> 00:07:50,040
We'll just get you
a chocolate cupcake.

176
00:07:50,084 --> 00:07:51,955
I don't want any.

177
00:07:51,999 --> 00:07:54,393
A chocolate cupcake
with nice crushed nuts
on the top?

178
00:07:54,436 --> 00:07:56,221
Uh-uh.

179
00:07:56,264 --> 00:07:59,093
Satisfied?

180
00:07:59,137 --> 00:08:01,051
Three out of four doctors
will tell you

181
00:08:01,095 --> 00:08:04,229
that the cupcake test
isn't always conclusive.

182
00:08:04,272 --> 00:08:07,101
Besides, his forehead
feels fine.

183
00:08:07,145 --> 00:08:08,842
Maybe my forehead
might feel fine,

184
00:08:08,885 --> 00:08:10,539
but all the rest
of me is sick.

185
00:08:10,583 --> 00:08:12,237
He looks
all right to me.

186
00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:14,369
Rob, we'll discuss it
somewhere else.

187
00:08:14,413 --> 00:08:16,458
Rich, you lie down
and get some rest now.

188
00:08:16,502 --> 00:08:18,634
Okay.

189
00:08:18,678 --> 00:08:21,768
I'm gonna rest, Daddy,
so I won't get sick and die!

190
00:08:21,811 --> 00:08:23,161
Fine.

191
00:08:25,859 --> 00:08:27,252
It proves nothing.

192
00:08:27,295 --> 00:08:29,428
I don't want to eat it,
and I'm not sick.

193
00:08:29,471 --> 00:08:31,256
The boy looks
fine to me.

194
00:08:31,299 --> 00:08:32,605
All he needs is
a good night's sleep.

195
00:08:32,648 --> 00:08:34,041
He'll get up
in the morning

196
00:08:34,084 --> 00:08:35,390
and stuff down
enough cupcakes

197
00:08:35,434 --> 00:08:36,478
to make even you
happy.

198
00:08:36,522 --> 00:08:37,871
Get your clothes
together,

199
00:08:37,914 --> 00:08:39,873
and I'll take
a quick bath.

200
00:08:39,916 --> 00:08:41,570
What are you doing?

201
00:08:41,614 --> 00:08:43,398
I'm gonna fix
some liver for dinner.

202
00:08:43,442 --> 00:08:45,487
Hang on a second. We'll
have dinner at Alan's.

203
00:08:45,531 --> 00:08:47,489
Rob, Dr. Miller
said that Ritchie

204
00:08:47,533 --> 00:08:50,100
should be watched
for 24 hours.

205
00:08:50,144 --> 00:08:53,016
Honey, when a doctor
says watch him,

206
00:08:53,060 --> 00:08:54,714
he doesn't mean
you have to stand
over his bed

207
00:08:54,757 --> 00:08:56,237
and stare at him.

208
00:08:56,281 --> 00:08:59,066
We can watch him
by phone.

209
00:08:59,109 --> 00:09:00,676
Oh, and if anything
happened,

210
00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:03,026
we could be home
in 30 minutes.

211
00:09:03,070 --> 00:09:05,072
It takes 53 minutes
to get here from New York,

212
00:09:05,115 --> 00:09:06,682
and you know it.

213
00:09:06,726 --> 00:09:09,294
But Janie will be here.
She's very responsible.

214
00:09:09,337 --> 00:09:11,339
Honey, when a little boy
is sick,

215
00:09:11,383 --> 00:09:13,472
he wants his mother
or father to comfort him,

216
00:09:13,515 --> 00:09:15,256
not a 15-year-old sitter.

217
00:09:15,300 --> 00:09:17,258
15--
15 years old?

218
00:09:17,302 --> 00:09:19,042
You make her sound
like some kind of
an infant.

219
00:09:19,086 --> 00:09:20,740
You know what
you have to realize?

220
00:09:20,783 --> 00:09:23,264
15 today isn't like
when you were 15.

221
00:09:23,308 --> 00:09:24,657
If you were
15 years old today,

222
00:09:24,700 --> 00:09:26,311
you'd have to be
at least 23.

223
00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:29,488
Forget it.

224
00:09:32,099 --> 00:09:35,450
Rob, why is going
to this party
so important to you?

225
00:09:35,494 --> 00:09:37,713
Well, Buddy and Sally
will be there.

226
00:09:37,757 --> 00:09:40,499
Oh, come on, you see them
eight hours every day.

227
00:09:40,542 --> 00:09:43,502
The network big-shots
and the sponsors will
also be there.

228
00:09:43,545 --> 00:09:46,331
I am
the head writer.

229
00:09:46,374 --> 00:09:48,202
Well, Alan wants us
to be there--

230
00:09:48,246 --> 00:09:50,509
Yeah! So he can ask you
to entertain.

231
00:09:50,552 --> 00:09:53,468
That's the only reason
he ever invites the writers,
and you know it.

232
00:09:53,512 --> 00:09:55,078
That is not so.

233
00:09:55,122 --> 00:09:56,558
He wants us to be there

234
00:09:56,602 --> 00:09:58,734
because we're an important
part of that show.

235
00:09:58,778 --> 00:10:01,346
You make us sound like
court jesters or something.

236
00:10:01,389 --> 00:10:04,523
I don't entertain at parties
unless I want to.

237
00:10:04,566 --> 00:10:07,439
All right. Okie-dokie.

238
00:10:07,482 --> 00:10:10,355
If going to
this dinner party is
so important to you,

239
00:10:10,398 --> 00:10:11,443
then...

240
00:10:18,363 --> 00:10:20,234
What are you doing?

241
00:10:20,278 --> 00:10:22,018
I know you.
Once this liver's cooked,

242
00:10:22,062 --> 00:10:23,498
you'll never go.

243
00:10:23,542 --> 00:10:25,370
I won't change my mind.

244
00:10:25,413 --> 00:10:27,981
So you might as well
put it back in the pan.

245
00:10:28,024 --> 00:10:30,026
Oh, let's talk it over
a little longer.

246
00:10:30,070 --> 00:10:32,942
Robert, will you please
put my liver back?

247
00:10:35,162 --> 00:10:37,425
Aw, honey, how often
does my boss

248
00:10:37,469 --> 00:10:39,166
ask us over
to his house?

249
00:10:39,209 --> 00:10:41,342
How often
is one called upon

250
00:10:41,386 --> 00:10:42,996
to be
a responsible parent?

251
00:10:49,568 --> 00:10:51,874
The president of
the network will be there.

252
00:10:54,007 --> 00:10:56,531
Well, then I think
you should go.

253
00:10:56,575 --> 00:10:58,141
I mean it, honey.

254
00:10:58,185 --> 00:11:00,448
There's no sense
both our staying home.

255
00:11:00,492 --> 00:11:02,537
After all, you have
a responsibility
to your work,

256
00:11:02,581 --> 00:11:04,757
and I fully
understand that.

257
00:11:05,888 --> 00:11:07,412
You do?

258
00:11:07,455 --> 00:11:08,804
Sure I do.

259
00:11:08,848 --> 00:11:11,416
You don't mind
if I go alone?

260
00:11:11,459 --> 00:11:12,895
Not at all, darling.

261
00:11:17,465 --> 00:11:18,858
Well...

262
00:11:20,425 --> 00:11:22,470
It's just that I couldn't
go to a party

263
00:11:22,514 --> 00:11:25,255
knowing my son was on
the verge of being sick.

264
00:11:27,562 --> 00:11:30,739
I couldn't enjoy myself.

265
00:11:30,783 --> 00:11:33,438
All right, all right,
you win.

266
00:11:33,481 --> 00:11:36,658
We'll spend a quiet
evening at home,
frying liver.

267
00:11:36,702 --> 00:11:38,443
You don't have to stay.

268
00:11:38,486 --> 00:11:40,445
I'm not going.

269
00:11:40,488 --> 00:11:42,795
I'm as good a mother
as you are.

270
00:11:47,467 --> 00:11:49,600
Aw, look. I wouldn't
object to staying home

271
00:11:49,644 --> 00:11:51,602
if the boy
was really sick.

272
00:11:51,646 --> 00:11:53,517
He is.
He has a fever.

273
00:11:53,561 --> 00:11:55,954
1/10 of a degree!

274
00:11:55,998 --> 00:11:57,173
Well, it's not normal.

275
00:11:57,216 --> 00:11:59,523
It's normal enough.

276
00:11:59,567 --> 00:12:03,048
If he was any more
normal than that,
he'd be abnormal.

277
00:12:03,092 --> 00:12:06,835
Oh, honey, come here.

278
00:12:06,878 --> 00:12:09,533
Why do you want to be
such a martyr?

279
00:12:09,577 --> 00:12:12,014
Not a martyr, darling.
A mother.

280
00:12:12,057 --> 00:12:14,059
Same thing.

281
00:12:14,103 --> 00:12:16,627
Oh, look, honey,
I know how you feel.

282
00:12:16,671 --> 00:12:18,977
I think you're
a great mother.

283
00:12:19,021 --> 00:12:21,806
But there's such
a thing as being
too great a mother.

284
00:12:21,850 --> 00:12:25,114
You're being
over-solicitous
and overprotective.

285
00:12:25,157 --> 00:12:26,811
It could be bad
for a kid.

286
00:12:26,855 --> 00:12:28,770
Oh, Rob--Listen to me, honey.

287
00:12:28,813 --> 00:12:30,859
You think about it.

288
00:12:30,902 --> 00:12:32,817
I want you to go
to that party with me

289
00:12:32,861 --> 00:12:35,080
because I love you.
I may be crazy,

290
00:12:35,124 --> 00:12:37,692
but I think you're
the best-looking
gal I know.

291
00:12:37,735 --> 00:12:39,694
I want
to show you off.

292
00:12:39,737 --> 00:12:41,696
How about it, Laurie?

293
00:12:41,739 --> 00:12:43,915
Will you give
me that pleasure?

294
00:12:45,917 --> 00:12:47,658
No.

295
00:12:49,051 --> 00:12:50,487
No?

296
00:12:50,530 --> 00:12:52,358
Oh, Rob, I'm flattered

297
00:12:52,402 --> 00:12:53,882
that you want
to show me off,

298
00:12:53,925 --> 00:12:55,840
but I can't go.

299
00:12:55,884 --> 00:12:57,146
Now, just listen
for a minute,

300
00:12:57,189 --> 00:12:58,756
and then you
think about it.

301
00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:00,889
Darling, I'm a woman,
and--

302
00:13:00,932 --> 00:13:02,455
So I've noticed.

303
00:13:02,499 --> 00:13:05,154
What I mean is,
if I leave the house tonight

304
00:13:05,197 --> 00:13:08,113
feeling the way I do,
I just know something's
gonna happen.

305
00:13:08,157 --> 00:13:10,115
It always does
when I feel this way.

306
00:13:10,159 --> 00:13:11,900
Call it
women's intuition--

307
00:13:11,943 --> 00:13:13,684
You mean superstition.

308
00:13:13,728 --> 00:13:16,513
No, it's not superstition.
It's scientific.

309
00:13:16,556 --> 00:13:18,733
Sure.You wash the car,
it rains, right?

310
00:13:18,776 --> 00:13:20,909
Light a cigarette,
the bus arrives.

311
00:13:20,952 --> 00:13:22,911
Leave the house when
you know you shouldn't,

312
00:13:22,954 --> 00:13:24,739
and something's bound
to happen.

313
00:13:24,782 --> 00:13:27,872
Honey, nothing's
