All language subtitles for Bob Hearts Abishola s02e14 A Tough Old Bird.eng

Next?
Hey, Chuey.

Bob.

I'm surprised to see you here.

Ah, they keep trying out
new pills on Mom.

I blame her good insurance.

I just assumed, after our
breakup, you would be Team Kemi.

What? I had no idea
you guys broke up.

I have been crying all morning.

Well, don't worry,
you can't tell.

Preparation H under the eyes
reduces puffiness.

[inhales]
It's on sale, aisle five.

Geez, pal, I'm so sorry.

I do not deserve your sympathy.

I am the monster
who has shattered the heart

of a wonderful woman.

Well, if there's anything
I can do...

It is Kemi I am worried about.

I'm sure she'll get through it.
She's a tough old bird.

She's a beautiful old bird.

And now she is free.

Well, that's a great way
to look at it, Chuey.

I really don't know
what else to say except, uh...

...prescription for Wheeler?

["Queens Highway"
by Menahan Street Band playing]

[exhales]

Oh.

Hello.[music stops]

Are you all right?

Of course. Why?

You are usually very loud

and almost unprofessional
in your enthusiasm.

I'm just tired.

From making love all night
to my boyfriend Chukwuemeka,

who is my soul mate
and who I will be with forever.

Okay.

Well, I'll see you at lunch.

Abishola?

Yes?

I am happy
and my life is perfect.

Okay.

[music resumes]

["Ifanla" by Sola Akingbola
playing]

Look who's all dressed up
with somewhere to go.

Aw, you look beautiful,
Mrs. Wheeler.

I feel beautiful,
like I'm getting

my life back.You are.

I didn't know if I'd ever leave
that room, and now look at me.

I'm going to my favorite place
in the world:

Jackpot City Casino
in Sarnia, Ontario.

I'm sure they've missed you.

I'm gonna play slots
till I pass out.

Do not let her
drink too much.

Oh, don't worry,
we're gonna go to the spa,

have some fancy meals, maybe
take in some live entertainment.

DOTTIE:
Yeah, okay, listen,

if you see a "do not
disturb" sign on our door,

go sleep in the lobby
'cause I may be enjoying

some "live entertainment."

Ready to go?

She's just going
for one weekend.

Isn't that a little overkill?

It's not overkill. It's her
clothes, her medication,

and her PT
equipment.

We don't know
what kind of facility

the hotel gym offers,

and she will not skip a
weekend of her recovery.

It's just one weekend.
[chuckles]

Which is all it takes
to derail a recovery.

Don't worry, I'll get
plenty of physical therapy

at the slot tournament.

Max bet, spin, max bet, spin.

Hey, maybe your
bad arm's lucky.

Like a rabbit's foot.

That is terrible, Douglas.

What are you doing?

Hmm? I'm just fixing
your jacket.

[chuckles]
It's so pretty.

Go.

Well, you got the house
to yourselves.

Don't do anything I wouldn't do.

And I do everything.

Really wish she left
before she said that.

[chuckles][door closes]

Ah, what a sweet, sweet sound.

Here.

Thank you.

To you.

To us. Just us.

When's the last time
we had this place to ourselves?

We've never had
this place to ourselves.

So, uh, do you want to...?

I do.

Eventually.
That meal was very heavy.

I was thinking
the exact same thing.

I-It's like our bodies move
and digest as one.

[chuckles]

I like that we
can just hang out.

We don't have to be
all over each other.

Like Kemi and Chuey.
They burned hot,

but then they flamed out.

Not like us. Low and slow.

Like that five-pound brisket
we just took down.

What are you talking about?

200 degrees for eight hours.

All it needed was
salt and patience.

No, what are you saying
about Kemi and Chuey?

They broke up.

Uh-uh. I saw her
this morning.

She didn't say
anything to me.

Oh, I'm sure she's gonna
tell you eventually.

I'm going to call her.

Aw, come on.

Let's go back to enjoying our
night and digesting together.

Ah. She just sent me
straight to voice mail.

Kemi, please call me back.

Well, you've done
all you can.

I'm going to keep calling
her until she picks up.

Okay, but let's not
let this ruin ourevening.

I just need to know
that she's okay.

Kemi, please pick up.

Kemi, it's Bob. I'll give you
200 bucks if you pick up.

What? I'm worried about her.

Kemi, I phoned you
many times last night.

Why didn't you return my calls?

I was in the bath.

All night?

I like a long soak.

Bob told me
about you and Chukwuemeka.

What about us?

Kemi, please.

Bob is an older gentleman.

Perhaps he is confused.

It will happen more and more
as he declines.

Kemi, do not lie to me.

What do you want me to say? Hmm?

That Chukwuemeka's
mother

finally got through to him? Hmm?

That I'm too old?

That he needs to be with someone
who can give him children?

Hey, ah, Kemi...

There, you have your story.

Hmm? You all have your story.

Poor, old, dried-up Kemi

is eggless and will die alone.

I'm so sorry.

Don't be.

Everybody said it was foolish
for us to try and be together.

Well, they were right.

It will be okay, my friend.

No, it won't.

But I'll be dead soon,
and that comforts me.

The gossip mill
is in full swing today.

Apparently,
Chukwuemeka broke up with Kemi.

And also,

Adebisi makes her puff-puff

from a mix.

Where did you hear that?

Everyone is talking about
Chukwuemeka and Kemi.

I will confess, I am spreading
the puff-puff rumor.

[laughter]

Are people that desperate
for gossip,

they need to hear about
a woman's heartbreak?

Yes, and why did you
not tell me about it?

I'm just glad Kemi's not here.

[scoffs]
Ogechi's spreading a rumor

that Kemi drank Chukwuemeka's
blood at night to stay young.

That is ridiculous.

Of course it is.

But if you had told me first,

I could have
controlled the story.

But now Kemi is a vampire.

An old, brokenhearted vampire.

What a blessed evening.

Ogechi!

[both laugh]

Did you enjoy the Bible lesson?Mm-hmm.

The Book of Genesis
is one of my favorites.

Tunde's, too.

Uh, yes. Serpents and floods
and kings, oh, my.

Tonight's discussion
about adversity

really made me think
about my son Chukwuemeka.

Mm.Yes, we heard.

Especially the story about
Jonah fighting his way out

of the clutches of that
huge, disgusting whale.

I think you are allowed
to be happy for Jonah

without spreading rumors
about the whale.

Abishola, perhaps we should
discuss something else.

I know you and Kemi are close.

But remember,
Proverbs says,

"The companion of fools
will suffer harm."

Proverb also says,

"The tongue has the power
of life and death,

and those who love it
will eat its fruits."

"Like arrows in the
hand of a warrior

"are the children
of one's youth.

Blessed is the man
who fills his quiver with them."

"Do not judge,
or you, too, will be judged.

"For in the same way
you judge others,

"you will be judged,

"and with
the measure you use,

it will be measured to you."

[whimpers]

Have a lovely night.

What was that?

Bible study.

How's Kemi doing?

She'll be fine.

Really? I heard
she had a big fit

in front of the
whole kitchen staff.

We should not be talking
about other people's business.

But, yes, it was
a very big fit.

Well, sometimes you got
to get those feelings out

before you
can move on.

Oh, no.

Hello.

Wow! Look at you.

Yes, look at me.

Drink me in.

Uh...

Kemi, I owe you an apology
for yesterday.

Don't worry about yesterday.

Yesterday's Kemi is dead.

I'll say.

I have always
been skeptical

of the saying
"blondes have more fun,"

but today I cannot deny it.

I've had more fun.

I'm sure having fun
looking at you.

You know, Abishola,

you should try something new.

You've had the same look
forever.

Oh, I-I wouldn't want to steal

your spotlight.Mm-hmm.

I am shining, aren't I?Yeah.

Like a blood diamond.

Oh, my Lord.
That girl is hurting.

It was very hard for me not
to tell her how ridiculous

she looked.
Uh-uh, uh-uh, she's not gone yet.

[chuckles]

Peperempe.

Beautiful woman!

[speaks Yoruba]

[phone buzzing]

Hello?

Abishola, I need your help.

It is 2:00 in the morning.

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

being a best friend had
designated hours.

What's going on?

Did they lose Mom
in the casino?

It's Kemi.
Go back to sleep.

Eh... I see why
you don't want to talk.

When were you going to tell me
that you and the sock man

were engaged in premarital sex?

Kemi, I'm hanging up.

No, no, wait.

I'm thinking of going

to Chukwuemeka's apartment.

Kemi, don't.

Let me rephrase that.

I'm outside
Chukwuemeka's apartment.

Kemi...

I've climbed up a fire escape,

and I have no recollection
of doing it.

What is happening to me?

You are not thinking clearly.

How can he sleep
so soundly?

We just broke up.

Climb carefully back down
the fire escape and go home.

Any lunatic could just break in

and slit his beautiful throat
while he sleeps.

I'm coming to get you.

You're what?

Get dressed.
Get what?

Kemi, stay where you are.
We're on our way.

Hello?

Kemi?

Abishola,
I'm thinking of breaking

into Chukwuemeka's apartment.

Don't do it, Kemi.

Let me rephrase that.

Oluwa mi o.

Kemi!

Kemi, come down!

Go away!

I didn't do anything.

I just watched him sleep.

Come down right now!

He must have taken an Ambien.

He just laid there
like a sweet, sedated angel.

How'd she even get up there?

She's always been
very strong.

Kemi, please!

All right, all right!

If he only knew
the sacrifice I made

just to see
his beautiful face one more...

[screaming]:
time!

Oh, my God! Bob,
quick, catch her!

Are you crazy?

Do it!
[groans]

Abishola! Sock man! Sock man!

Kemi, I'll give you 200 bucks

to not fall!

[Kemi screaming]

Thank you for catching me.

Don't mention it.

You are very soft.

Don't mention it.

Like a memory foam mattress.

Not gonna
say it again.

Kemi, this cannot go on.

You have to deal
with your feelings.

There's nothing to deal with.

You broke
into your ex's apartment.

All I did was lay next to him
for a bit.

And take a few pictures.

Don't look at me like that.

The lighting was perfect.

Look, Kemi, if you want
to talk about it,

you are in the right car.

Bob is very good
with feelings.

Aw, thanks.

You know, you're getting
better at it, too.

The other day, you had
a headache and you told me

about it instead of closing
your eyes while I talked.

And I'm glad I shared
because then you were quiet.

[both laugh]

[groans]
You two make me sick.

You want to hear my feelings?

I'm a wretched,
withered old stalker

who is doomed to die alone.

You are not alone.

You have children
and grandchildren.

Some of whom you love very much.

And you got friends
who you can count on.

And fall on.

[both laugh]

Bob is probably the last man
who will ever hold me.

I know it feels dark now,

but I promise
it will get better.

And until it does,

you got this great lady
right by your side.

Excuse me.

Kemi, Kemi...

Kemi, what are you doing?!

Bob?

Well, we've done all we can.

I'm going,
I'm going.

[exhales]

Hello? Funmbi?

It's me, Mummy.

No, no, no, no, no one is dead.

No, no, no one is sick.

No, I did not attack
my neighbor again.

Can a mother not just
call her son?!

So, how are you?

And the children?

Oh, that's good, that's good.

Oh, I understand.

I am also very busy.

All right, I should let you go.

Goodbye, Funmbi.

[sighs]

[knocking]

Ah-ah, Kemi.
We need to talk.

Okay.Not you.

Hello, Auntie.

Why are you here?

To tell you, you are right.

You may sit down.

Your son wants a family,

and I know how much
you want grandchildren.

It was unfair of me
to deny you that.

Yes, it was.

He needs children,
but at the same time,

I find it very hard
to be without him.

I miss you as well.

That is wonderful...

but I'm in a conversation.

There may be a way that
everybody gets what they want.

I do not see how.

Unless you drank
so much of Chukwuemeka's blood

that you are now a teenager.

Excuse me?

Just something
I heard at church.

Let me ask you
a question, Ogechi.

Do you want
your son to be happy?

Of course.

And do you agree
that he has been unhappy

since he and I broke up?

I have been miserable.

Chukwuemeka, please!

He has been miserable.

So this is what we do.

Chukwuemeka and I
get back together,

and you have your happy son.

So happy.

Then...

you and I will meet
a series of women

to see who is fit

to bear your grandchildren.

Wait, what?
Shh!

Why would you get any say
in who this new woman should be?

The same reason you get a say.

I am his mother.

And I am his Kemi.

Do I get a say?

So what do you think, Auntie?

I can find no fault
with this arrangement.

If you two are happy,
I am happy.

Good boy.
That's my son.

Ooh, magna cum laude.

Ooh.

But from a state school.

Oh.

And do you just speak
the three languages?

Yes.

I'm just not seeing
the wow factor.

Thank you for saying it first.

It says here you knit.

I do.

Oh, that's nice.

Get out, please.

Off you go.

Your grandchild will not have
knitter's hands.

They are all knuckles.

I am starting to worry
we will not find anyone.

Maybe we need
to lower our expectations.

Absolutely not.

You deserve nothing
but the best.

You are right.

I thought
the last woman was nice.

Yes, that's
why weare doing this.

Would you like
some tea, Auntie?

That would be lovely.
Thank you, Kemi.

You heard her,
go and get us some tea.
