All language subtitles for The Goldbergs s02e12 Cowboy Country.eng

Adult Adam: Back in the '80s,
being a man's man was simple.

All you needed was muscles or a mustache.

Unfortunately,
I was miles from Dolph Lundgren

and no Chuck Norris...

Yet. Adam: Get scared, boys.

Goldberg's coming for you.

I was what you'd call a "late bloomer,"

like the latest... Ever.

What's up, Goldnerd?
How was your winter break?

J.C. Spink? What the...
what happened to you?

Grew a ton. I stink.
Got acne all over my back.

It's awesome.

But worst of all, the girls
were growing even faster,

especially my girlfriend, Dana Caldwell.

Yo, girls. Mainly you.

Um, hi?

There's a party at the water tower.

Usually there's no freshman allowed.

But for you, I'll make an exception.

Actually, I'm not a freshmen.

Adam F. Goldberg. Pleasure.

Uh, what's this about a party?

Uh, I'll see you there, Dana.

And, uh, don't bring your
little brother. [Chuckles]

I'm actually four months
and 16 days older than her,

and we're together.

Weird. Anthony Balsamo knows my name.

And he's such a mensch
to invite both of us.

Wait... you want to go to that?

It's just gonna be a bunch
of rowdy high-school guys

spray-painting dirty words
on the water tower.

Big, bad Adam ain't afraid
of no water tower.

Or ghosts, FYI.

I desperately wanted my girlfriend, Dana,

to see me as a man.

Are you standing on your tiptoes?

Don't think so.

And if it wasn't gonna happen on its own,

I would kick-start the process myself.

The hell are you doing?

I'm stimulating the follicles.
I read it in GQ.

It's a magazine for stylish men of means.

Okay, everybody out.

I need to use the... oh, my God.

Are you using my lady bic?

I'm stimulating the follicles!

Ha, you suck! Barry, get the camera!

Adam's being Adam!

Beverly: What's with all the yelling?

Oh, my Joy! Is my baby trying to shave?!

[Gasps] I'm stimulating the follicles.

Oh! I got the Polaroid!

Say "peach fuzz."
[Camera shutter clicks]

The Goldbergs - 02x12
Cowboy Country

It was January 7, 1980-something,

and my brother, Barry, had his
first real-live girlfriend,

Lainey Lewis.

You went through my backpack
and ate my pudding?

Who does that?

Aw, so cute when my boyfriend
flies into a rage over pudding.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Hold up.

You just said "boyfriend" out loud,

in front of other teenage human people.

Dude, it's not a big deal.

It's just... I've never been this happy.

Aw. Don't celebrate just yet.

My dad has to meet your dad first.

It's like his only rule.

He needs to know you come from good stock.

I don't.

You've seen my stock.
It's like terrible stock.

I have a plan.

We'll have you guys
come to a football game

so they'll be distracted
and drinking a lot.

- That's genius!
- Think you can get him to come over?

Hey, Big Tasty knows
how to handle Murray Goldberg.

There's a 100% chance
my dad will be there.

There's a 0% chance I will be there.

Please. It's just one
little football game.

Little?! We're talking
Cowboys-Eagles here!

It's the biggest game of the year.

It's the only thing I care about
in the entire world.

- More than your child?
- Yes.

You put me in a position
where I had to say it.

And now that I did, I feel free.

If I hear you say "no" again,
I'm hulking out.

We're talking screaming and swearing.

I'm gonna smash this decorative box!

Do not hulk out! Do not
smash that decorative box!

Say goodbye to the decorative box!

Your mom keeps her knickknacks in there.

I'll destroy her knickknacks, too!

Hulk doesn't respect knickknacks!

Fine! I'll do your stupid thing!

Where are we going again?

Do you even listen when I talk?

I get the gist of it, say "no" a lot.

I make it work.

I'm cool with that.

While Barry was hulking out for Lainey,

I was bulking up for Dana.

"Buns of steel"?

"Just five minutes a day
for the working mom on the go."

That can vaguely apply to me.

Okay, what's going on with you?

All the guys at school
are turning into grown men,

and I still have a little-boy body.

Ah, puberty. I was
an early bloomer myself.

Those were the days.

[Sighs] That's not helpful, is it?

No! My girlfriend's is about
to be stolen by Anthony Balsamo.

I don't know
who this Balsamic character is,

but I'm sure you don't need to worry.

No, he should worry. Panic even.

I mean, Anthony Balsamo's a 10.

Mom says I'm a 10.

She also says Barry can be a doctor.

Oh, God, pops! Help me!

It's a lie. I'm not a 10.

If Anthony Balsamo's
got his eye on your girl,

you got to think big.

In this case, maybe a diamond or a car

or an exotic trip around the world.

Adam, you can't buy a girlfriend.

Unless she's out of your league.

Then you've got to pull out all the stops.

Okay, then. Jewelry it is.

I could give her
my sweet green lantern ring.

Or you keep looking.

- No, it's perfect.
- Just sleep on it.

Why? It glows and everything.

It's for nerds, okay? Nerds.

I'm sorry. But you left me no choice.

They were right.

They only way to lock down Dana
was with a big, sparkly ring.

Lucky for me, my Nana left me
the perfect one.

My mom said, one day,

I'd give it to the woman of my dreams.

Surely, she was thinking
middle school, right?

[Gasps] Uh...

You like?

Adam, it's too much.

Nothing's too much

for my number-one special lady friend.

[Laughs] It's beautiful.

Be sure to wear it tonight
to the water tower.

You still want go to that party?

That Balsamo kid
was nice enough to invite us.

The least we could do is pop in
and show your ring off.

Adam Frederick Goldberg!

Put it away. Oh, God. Hide your ring.

Oh, God. She knows.

How does she know? How do you know?

I have an itemized inventory right here

of everything that goes in
and out of our house.

Now give me Nana's ring.

No, you said, one day,

I could give it to the woman of
my choosing, and I choose Dana.

By woman of your choosing,
I meant of our choosing.

I'm a man, I made this decision,

and now there's nothing
that you can do about it.

Oh, yes, there is.

Hi, Mrs. Goldberg.

Dana, lovely to see you.
I'm gonna need that ring back.

Mom, do not do this.

- Ring.
- Do not.

- Ring, ring, ring.
- Do not.

Ring, ring. Who's there?
It's me. I want my ring back.

Okay, I'll take it off.
[Ring clatters]

Just put it back on my finger
before you lose it.

Oh, ho-ho-ho-ho. Check it out.

Goldnerd's proposing to his mom,
and she said "yes"!

- That's not what happened!
- Oh, she said "no."

[Laughter]

There. You happy now?

I do. I mean... I am.

[Doorbell rings]

Hi, Mr. Goldberg. [Chuckles]

Thanks for coming. My dad's
excited to meet you. Hey, Barry.

- Hey, hey.
- Oh, hey, there he is.

Hey, hey. Dad, you know Barry, Mr.
Goldberg.

Yep. Hey, Bill Lewis
of Bill Lewis Tile and flooring.

Murray Goldberg of this moron's father.

[Laughs] Classic Mur-man. He kids.

Big game today. You guys are lucky

'cause I just bought a brand-new
big-screen TV to watch it on.

- What you got? 27"?
- [Whistles]

- 32 "? 34"?
- [Imitates cranking]

53" of pure magic, my friend.

You are a dirty liar.

Come here. [Chuckles]

Oh... My... God. It's real.

[Choir vocalizing]
Ah, the '80s projection TV.

It was blurry and weighed more than a
car, but it was the envy of every man.

I know we just met...

But I want to live with you,
Bill. I choose you.

Wow. I think this may work.

And it did... For about two more seconds.

Murray, you can come over
for any game you want.

[Vocalizing stops] Everybody's
welcome in Cowboy Country.

Good God. What is this place?

- I think he said "Cowboy Country."
- Isn't it great?

How could you do this to me?

They're Cowboy fans.

I can't watch the biggest game of the year

in enemy territory!

I'm sorry, okay? Lainey didn't tell me.

Lainey: I did. Remember?

I told you all about it in your room...

when we were studying.

You can't expect me to listen
to what you're saying

while we're... Studying.

Morons! I know what "studying" means!

Look, you can still root for the Eagles...

just not out loud.

Please. It's going so well.
My dad actually likes you.

[Laughs] He never likes anyone.

Fine. I will stay for one quarter.

But after that, I go home
and watch with my chair.

Who wants some barbecued eagle?

[Laughs] I'm just fooling. It's chicken.

But that's what the Eagles are, right?

A bunch of chickens.
Bawk-bawk-bawk-bawk-bawk.

[Laughs]

As livid as my dad was,

it didn't come close
to the rage in my heart.

Stop your stomping.

I get it... your little feet are mad.

But you are much too young

to be giving little girls
big, honking sparklers.

Fine! I'll just get her a ring of my own!

I'll mow every damn lawn
in this town if I have to.

What do I need to score
a ring like that, huh?

10, 12 g's? You know what?

I thought we were gonna be able to

discuss this like reasonable people.

But clearly, your little body's
all worked up.

Stop calling my parts little!
I'm a man! A big man!

Uh-huh!

Well, you're grounded, big man.

That means no computer, no television,

no phone, no Dana.

[Sighs]

Don't look at me like that.
I know what you're thinking.

But he crossed a line with that ring.

And don't tell me

I'm trying to keep him a baby forever

because I'm not, although he is growing up

at an alarming rate.

And this isn't because
I am devastated or jealous

or threatened that he's got
a new woman in his life.

Because she is not a woman. She is a girl.

And I am the woman.

I'm his mother, of course,
but he's mine...

ours, all of ours.

Shut up!

[Whirring]

- Hey. You okay?
- No, I'm not okay!

Dana's at the water tower
right now with Anthony Balsamo.

I can't let him swoop in on my Gal.

I got to fix this.

Oh, good... you came up
with another great way

for a robot to solve your problems.

I will let love and eight "D" batteries

carry my letter to Dana
at the water tower.

There's nothing that can stand
in Omnibot's way... nothing!

Omnibot, no! You know grass
is your kryptonite!

Well, here's an idea. A real man
would find Dana himself.

I can't. You heard mom.
She would ground me forever.

Well, maybe some things in life
are just worth it.

In that moment,
I realized Erica was right.

It was time to stop letting
a robot do a man's job.

Run! Run and show her what a man you are!

What a tiny, little man you are.

And it's good! [Crowd cheering]

Three on the board! [Laughs]

Three on the board. [Bell rattles]

Three on the board.
Three on the board. [Laughs]

Sweet lord. Make him stop.

You know, Dick Vermeil
has no business coaching men's football.

Maybe... at best... women's volleyball.

Not the Olympic kind.

Like a casual, two-woman game
on a beach, am I right, Mur?

After a quarter of agony, my dad was

at his breaking point,
and then this happened.

Oh! Oh, yeah! Mike Quick!

Just beat the kicker!
Just beat the kicker!

Go! Go! Go! Go! Go! Touchdown!

Oh, whoa, whoa!

Oh, crap. Yeah. We're done.

You're an Eagles fan?

This is, uh, Philadelphia,

and I root for two teams...

the Eagles and whoever's
playing the Cowboys.

But at least we all can agree
the Giants suck,

am I right?

In my house, we root
for one team and one team only.

That's America's team.

If anyone's America's team, it's Philly...

home of the Liberty Bell,
Ben Franklin, and Rocky.

Your city's so bad you could only come up

with is a mediocre boxing movie
and a broken bell.

Okay, we're all saying things
that are hurtful and untrue.

I say we hug.

We'll start. You guys join.

No.

I never understood
why you liked this bonehead.

But after meeting his dad,
I really don't get it.

I don't have to sit here
and watch my son be insulted

by a man who sells the
fourth-best type of flooring.

- Oh, no. Oh, no.
- Oh, no.

There's only one thing worse
than bad-mouthing the Cowboys,

and that's talking nonsense about Tile.

You can't name one better
flooring option! Not one!

Carpet, wood, linoleum,
brick, marble, astroturf.

Enough!

It'll be a cold day in hell
when my daughter dates

a no-good, Tile-hating Eagle fan.

I think you guys should leave.

I'm a step ahead of you! Ca-caw!

Stop it. What is that?

I am an eagle,
flying on my wings to victory.

Ca-caw!

Eagles don't "ca-caw!"

Nobody knows the sound an eagle makes!

Nobody!

[Door opens]

Barry.

Eagles don't "ca-caw."

Murray: Ca-caw!

As Barry was watching
his first love fly away,

I was getting ready
to climb to new heights

to show Dana what a man looked like.

Adam? I thought you were grounded.

This is how grounded I'm not.

[Rattling]

Wait. You can't climb that.
It's too dangerous.

[Crowd Murmuring]

Dana Isabelle Caldwell, you're worth it.

And so, my climb into greatness began.

Sure, I was a clumsy doof with
limited hand and leg strength,

but I wouldn't let
my shortcomings stop me.

I had to show Anthony Balsamo
and the rest of my school

that Adam Goldberg
was the manliest of men.

It was my moment.

The wind was at my back,
my heart was pounding,

and I knew exactly what I needed to write

to show all of jenkintown
that Dana was my girl.

Nothing on God's green earth
could stop me.

No!

Come on! Damn it!

Well, nothing except for
an empty can of spray paint.

Oh, balls!

_

Do you know that guy, Dan?

Not that well.

Even more unfortunate...

Oh, balls!

I got so swept up in being man

that I'd forgotten about
my crippling fear or heights.

[Siren wails]

Also unfortunate, they had to
call the fire department.

Turns out, being swaddled like a baby

didn't help my case on proving my manhood.

Hey, you okay, bro?

Fuck you, Dan.

Even though the Eagles lost
pretty bad that day,

Barry was taking his loss even harder.

The hell are you doing?

Just sorting through the treasures
of our relationship.

The flyers shirt she hated,

the stop sign where she wanted to go left

and I wanted to go right,

so I got nervous, went straight.

You might not understand this,

but... Eagles and Cowboys just don't mix.

You and Lainey were doomed from the start.

We just root for different teams.

- So what?
- So it gets complicated.

I've seen people try,

but it's, uh... well, that's a tough life.

You're living in the past!

I don't see teams. I see people.

Everyone sees teams.

Well, as much as I care
about the Eagles...

I care about Lainey more.

That's a damn big thing to say.

- I know it is.
- You better mean it.

I do.

Well, let's get in the damn car.

And bring the stop sign.

We got to put it back.
It's a serious crime.

Bill, we need to talk.

I've got nothing to say to you.

Look, I know things got personal.

You said some things about Rocky.

I said some things about Floor Tiling.

We got great kids,
and they like each other.

So let's just move past this.

Mur, I'm a reasonable man.

I'll let Lainey see Barry

if you admit the Cowboys
are America's team.

Reasonable? That's not reasonable.

That's the opposite of reasonable.

- Dad, come on.
- Let him try it on.

- I'll do it.
- Wait, seriously?

[Sighs]

- [Mumbling] The Cowboys are...
- W-what's that?

Cowboys...[Speaks gibberish]

- I couldn't quite hear you.
- Cowboys... [Mumbles]

Even though my brother liked
Lainey more than the Eagles,

he hated watching our dad get ridiculed.

The Cowboys...

Suck!

They suck! The Cowboys suck!

I'm sorry, Lainey. They suck so hard.

I think we're done here.

- Damn right we are! Ca-caw!
- Ca-caw!

- Stop it!
- Ca-caw!

Eagles don't make that noise!

- Ca-caw!
- It makes no sense!

Both: Ca-caw! Ca-caw! Ca-caw! While
Barry and my dad were flying high,

Erica was trying to keep
my smother grounded.

Where is he? Where is my boy?

I'm sorry. I can't hear you.

Tell me where my favorite child is,

or this is gonna get real mean.

- Meaner than that?
- Cut it out.

Do what you will, I won't crack.

Wow. Standing up for your brother.

I'm proud of you, really.

- What are you doing?
- Just demonstrating

how I'll be showing up to school next year
if you don't start talking.

[Scoffs] You think
a few curlers scare me?

Wow. You put those in fast.
You're like a hair ninja.

Oh, it won't just be curlers.

It'll be the whole pre-bedtime routine.

[Lisping] Hi, Erica.
It's me, your mother.

- He's at the water tower.
- You're weak.

I know.

Hey!

You are in so much trouble, mister!

You thought you were grounded before?

Well, you are really grounded now.

It doesn't matter!

After tonight, Dana will never
want to see me again anyway.

What happened?

You were right. I'm a little boy.

And every time I try and be a man,

I just end up proving
I'm the farthest thing from it.

I just... I hate who I am right now.

Don't say that.

Look, I know this is hard
for you to understand,

but this period of your life...
[Clicks tongue]

It's only gonna last a little while.

I'm sure, for you, it seems like
it'll last forever.

But believe me, it doesn't.

In fact, for me, it all seems like

it's just going by so fast.

Just take me home.

[Dire Straits' "Romeo and Juliet" plays]

[Brakes squeal]

Okay. Here's your stop.

But this is Dana's house.

Yeah. Go talk to her.

Really? Y-you said I wasn't
allowed to see her anymore.

I know what I said. Go.

We need to talk.

O-okay, I'll come down.

No, wait. I-I'll come up.

That night, I was determined
to climb my way into manhood.

Or at least make it to Dana's window

without having to be rescued by firemen.

You know, you really need to
stop climbing things.

Look, all I wanted was to be
seen as your boyfriend,

not some little kid.

No one thinks that.

Of course they do. Look at me.

Adam, look at me.

People think I'm in high school,

and they stare at me, and it sucks.

I don't want to go to their parties.

I just want to ride my bike
and play video games.

With you.
and I forget,
I forget the movie song

That sounds awesome. [Chuckles]

So, now what?

- I'm good with that.
-
Juliet

I can't believe
you were actually gonna say

the Cowboys were better
than the Eagles for me.

For your information,
I was never going to say that.

- Oh, you were gonna say it.
- I wasn't going to say it.

- You were gonna say it.
- Okay, maybe I like you

a little bit more than the Eagles.

Don't tell the Eagles.

-
And I dreamed your dream for you

My dad hates your guts. Oh,
my God. He hates you so much.

He forbid me from ever seeing you again.

Well, thanks for delivering
that message in person.

Don't you get it? He forbid me.

- Forbidden love! That is so hot!
- Huh?

Oh, can't you guys
just wait until I leave the room

before you start studying?

[Groans] I just ate.

Oh, and by the way,
even though the Cowboys suck,

I think Barry chose well.

I chose him.

Hmm.

-
When we made love, you used to cry

It's actually not worth
anything, but... I love it.

-
I'll love you till I die"

_

[Ding!]

- Holy why?
- Hi, Erica.

Okay, fine! You got me!

But I was only in Atlantic City
for a few hours,

and I wasn't eve with those dudes
when they were arrested.

Adam forgot his lunch.
I just brought it to him.

You said you would come to school...

- I thought you knew.
- I didn't.

Then why are you here dressed
as my worst nightmare?

'Cause some mornings, It's just tougher
to get it together than others.

Now, moving on to your punishment?

Oh, I love you, too, Erica!
Yes, this is my daughter!

I baked her in my tummy!
