Here we are. Home sweet home.

Thank you so much for coming all the way to Koorestan

just to say you love me, Max.

[giggles]

Now, you haven't said it in New York yet, so say it again.

Fran, aren't you getting kind of tired of hearing it?

Or is that just me?

There you go, sweetheart. [clears throat]

-Fran? -Yes?

-I love you. -[giggles]

Hi, everyone. We're home!

And guess what?

-Your father has something he wants to share with you all. -[clears throat]

-I've told Ms. Fine I love her. -Mm-hmm.

-Yeah, wonderful. -What else is new?

Oh! Oh, yes, I didn't take it back.

Oh, congratulations, Ms. Fine. That's wonderful news.

Shall I get you a fork?

What for?

To stick in yourself. You're done.

You want to see something sickening?

Well, that was fun. Now what?

All right, knock it off.

Mm. Oh! Mm.

I'm sorry, C.C. [clears throat]

Ms. Fine, would you please try to conduct yourself

a little more professionally?

No, you conduct yourself first.

No, I asked you first.

-No. -I asked you first.

-You. -No, no, no.

-You. -[laughs] Stop it. Stop it.

No, stop it. C.C... Hmm.

C.C., I... I do apologize. Now, what was it you wanted to say?

You mean, besides "yuck"?

Maxwell, we have business to attend to other than

playing kissy-face with the help.

Oh, come on, Ms. Babcock.

I'm not really that much help.

[laughter]

You know, I'm really going to miss you.

I've grown accustomed to your waist.

Do you know what is so sad?

I mean, besides the fact that you sleep in Brighton's old bed.

Maxwell is going to worm his way out of this like always.

Nanny Fine is headed for such a fall.

Oh, God.

I don't want to be around to see that.

Actually, I do.

Here's my beeper number.

Oh, Fran, this thing with you and Dad is so romantic.

I just hope that the same thing happens to me someday.

Well, except for the fact that I'd become a cleaning lady

and, uh, wait around for six years

for the man that I love to finally make a move.

[sighs] I know. It's like a fairy tale.

Oh, Nanny Fine. Cute coat.

How many Muppets had to die for that?

You know, I can understand you being bitter,

but, honey, when you stay too long at the fair,

a man loses respect.

Another three years and I was out that door myself.

You know, Nanny Fine, I think it is so precious

how you think Maxwell's saying he loves you means something.

Well, I think it's pretty obvious

that he's not taking it back this time.

Oh, no, he's not going to take it back.

He is going to drag this thing on and on and on

until you get disgusted and die.

Like a cockroach, I was here long before you

and I'll be here long after you're gone.

Oh, Max, you know how happy you made me

that you told me you loved me?

But don't you think it's time we went on to the next level?

You know, I'm not going to be 69 forever.

Now, listen, Ms. Fine. Uh, uh...

Franny, we... we can't just jump into this.

I'm... I'm awfully worried about the children.

First of all, we can't jump, period.

Second of all,

whose children are you worried about?

Yours, theirs or theirs?

Coming through.

I'm coming through.

Round you go, round you go, buddy.

Come on, little buddy. Come on back here.

Just got away from you a little bit, that's all.

Just got a little away from him.

Hello... [coughs]

C.C., I... I could have saved you the trip.

I'm not going to any party forCats.

Oh, Maxwell.

Come on. How many shows hit a billion performances?

Why don't you take your husband?

No, I don't want to go with her.

One drunken stupor in 2006 and I'm still paying for it.

You see?

Even they're married.

You know, I am not going to wait around forever.

I'm telling you, mister.

I give it another three years

and then I am out of here.

Ms. Fine?

-Ms. Fine? -[gasps]

Oh! Oh.

Oh, thank God.

What's wrong?

Niles.

Do you think it's possible that Mr. Sheffield told me that he loves me

just to string me along forever?

Oh, no.

Although, he isn't very good with commitment.

I'm still on a week-to-week.

Oh, no, this is ridiculous. Ms. Babcock is out of her mind.

I'm not listening to her.

But you know what? If she asks you out

for drinks in the year 2006, don't go.

-Oh, Niles, Niles. Come here. I want to tell you something. -Mm-hmm.

Niles, can you keep a secret?

Well, I'm good until I meet another person.

Look, I'm... I'm serious. This concerns Ms. Fine.

Oh, no. You're not going to disappoint her again?

Not unless you think she would be disappointed by this.

Oh, sir.

Oh, sir, it's beautiful.

This is the happiest day of my life.

You know, it's funny how you picture it,

but you're never really prepared for it.

Do you think she'll like it?

Oh, my God, she'll be speechless.

-Well, maybe I should give it to her now then. -[both laugh]

Seriously, Niles, I want your word that you won't say anything.

Oh, on my honor, sir. I won't say a word, I swear.

Oh, and sir,

-congratulations. -Thank you, Niles.

Yes!

Niles, what... what happened? [gasps] Did Ms.Babcock die?

No. [chuckles]

-Better. [chuckles] -Oh.

-Well, not better, but good. -[laughs]

-What? What? -Oh, I... I can't say a word.

Two words. Okay, good. First word. Yes. What?

Eye. Eye. Okay, good.

Second word, pfft, wow.

Eye crud. I got a cold in my eye.

Eye, uh... Eye boogers. Eye goo! Okay.

Sounds like eye goo. Eye goo. Eye joo.

Eye joo. I'm a Jew! I'm a Jew!

No? No. No, no. No.

Eye, eye joo, eye boo, eye goo.

Eye do. I do?

-He does? -He do. Yahoo!

[phone ringing]

Yes?

I'm getting married.

Sorry, miss, you got the wrong number.

Ma, it's me.

Mr. Sheffield's going to propose.

Oh, my God. I'm so happy.

Hold on, I'm getting beeped.

Oh, Ma, don't disconnect.

Hello?

Mrs. Fine, I think you ordered too much food.

You want four orders of ribs?

You know, I could take my business

across the street to Mr. Lee.

He's not judgmental.

I'm sorry, I can't talk now.

My daughter's getting proposed to.

Get out of town.

Hold, please. I have another call.

-Hello? -Mr. Chung,

what's taking so long?

I ordered an hour ago.

Hang on, lady. I'm talking to Sylvia Fine.

Her daughter is about to get proposed to.

What?

-Sylvia. -Oh, hi, Ma.

Guess what? Mr. Sheffield is going to pop the question.

Oh, I hope you told him no.

It'll kill Franny.

Hang on a second. I'm getting beeped.

Oy, this thing is like Grand Central Station today.

-Hello? -It's Rabbi Margulies.

Mazel tov on your daughter.

By the way, I'm not accusing,

but we found raisinets in the organ bay.

-[phone ringing] -Sheffield residence.

Niles, is it true?

[all] Let's just hope he doesn't take it back.

Ma, you disconnected me.

What I was going to tell you was

it's a big secret. I'm not even supposed to know yet.

Mamuhluh, Who am I going to tell?

He's coming.

Oh, Ms. Fine, there's something I wanted to ask you.

-Yes? -[turns on romantic song]

I wanted to ask if you'd like to have dinner tonight.

[music stops]

All right. How about Italian?

No, no, no. This is a rather special occasion.

-Oh. -I...

Yes, I've... I've booked the Rainbow Room

so why don't you ask your family to join us, huh?

I think they should all be there.

-[laughs] -Now, I'm going to be tied up at the theater

till about 7:30, so I'll...

-I'll see you here about 8:00. -Eight o'clock it is.

[doorbell rings]

Oh, I'll get that.

Unless it's a surprise you don't want... Oh, he's gone.

[music stops]

-Hi. -I'm so happy for you.

Ma told you?

No. I heard it from Mr. Chung at the Rickshaw Hunan Palace.

Oh, by the way, he sent this.

Congratulations!

I'm technically not even supposed to know myself yet.

Mr. Sheffield wants to pop the question

in front of everyone at the Rainbow Room.

You're invited.Tonight.

Fran, after all this time,

I can't believe he's finally going to pop the question.

-I know. -Well, to tell you the truth,

I was worried he'd never really do it.

-I know. -Quite frankly,

it was getting pretty pathetic.

I know, Val. Now, would you just act surprised?

[feigns gasp]

Not now. Yeesh.

Show me the love, baby.

You're switched on, you're smashing.

Oh, behave.

Oh, Brighton, I want you to get every angle to capture this...

Higher, honey. I want you to capture happy, not hippy.

-Ma, Yetta. -[exclaiming]

-I can't believe it. -Oh, can you believe it?

He was so young.

No one died, Ma.

Fran is going to get proposed to.

Oh, thank God.

Finally these three kids will have a father.

Oh, Niles.

Oh, I can't believe this night is finally here.

I only wish Ms. Babcock were around to share in the joy.

-Hello, hello. -Thank you.

So, Niles, what is the emergency?

Oh! You have all been the victim of a hostile makeover.

Now, listen, everyone.

When Mr. Sheffield springs it on me,

I want you to act like you never heard it before.

Just be really surprised. Be very convincing.

Hear what?

-[whispering] -[gasps]

I.e.

Fran, can't we take our coats off?

It's been half an hour. How much longer do we have to wait?

No one has waited as long as I have.

Leave the coat on.

Nanny Fine, you know, maybe you should take up knitting.

Maxwell's going to need warm socks for those cold feet.

You know, I know what you're getting at,

but he's not going to be backing out this time.

He'll be here.

That man loves me. I feel it in my heart of hearts.

Swear you saw that ring.

-[phone ringing] -Aah!

Hello?

Relax, it's him.

Fran, I... I know I'm running late,

but I'm going to need a little more time here. There's...

There's just one more thing I have to do.

Oh. Okay, honey. Uh...

Don't worry. We'll be here.

Waiting.

Oh, Nanny Fine, don't be depressed.

At least Maxwell gave you a ring.

Ring!

[sighs] Well, Sara, my love...

You know you'll always be in my heart.

You were my first love.

And you're the mother of our children.

And nothing can ever change that.

But I've met someone very special.

And I love her a great deal.

And the children are crazy about her.

I think you'd like her.

You know, in many ways, she reminds me of...

[clears throat] Nobody you've ever met.

I think you'll be very happy for us.

Hey, how's it going, Mr. Sheffield?

Well, Jake, congratulate me.

I'm about to ask my nanny to marry me.

The one with the voice?

Uh, what voice?

Oh! You're in love.

Good night, Jake.

-Excuse me. You got the time? -Yes, 8:15.

You don't really want to know the time, do you?

They did such a good job on him.

He looks like he's just sleeping peacefully.

Yetta, Yetta, he's not dead.

It's always hardest for the young ones to accept.

Sammy and I sent that.

Look, Yetta...

It's the nicest one.

He'll be here, Ma.

He wouldn't do this to me.

Sweetheart, you know you can always come home.

We'll redo your room exactly like it was.

I even saved your old Flashdance comforter set.

You mean the one with the two pillow shams

that say, "What a feeling"?

Nanny Fine.

Listen, I packed a few of your things

to make the transition easier.

Next, jackets, sweaters and slutty skirts.

No, Ma. No, I know him.

He loves me and he would have been here by now.

Something must have happened to him.

Something must be wrong.

I've got to go find him.

Mr. Sheffield?

Mr. Sheffield?

Mm. Oh.

[gasps] Oh, my God.

-Oh, Mr. Sheffield. -Oh, Ms. Fine.

-Are you hurt? What happened? -Oh, I got mugged.

-Oh, no. -I was on my way home

-to you and... -Oh!

-I'm sorry I'm so late. -Oh, that's okay.

As long as you're all right, who cares?

I should have fought back harder.

No, no, no.

They say you never fight back.

You just give them what they want.

You don't argue, don't get aggressive...

-They got the ring. -I'll kill them!

I mean... I mean, what ring?

Oh, Fran, I wanted tonight

to be the most romantic night of your life.

-I know. -I wanted...

Wait a minute. Wait, there has to be...

Yeah, here we go.

[grunts]

Wait, wait.

-Fran. -Yes?

Will you marry me?

Oh, Max.

You know, it's all so sudden.

Well, will you?

What do you think?

["Cherish" by Association playing]

I'm getting married.
