ah...
oh, no!
I don't believe it!
Oh, my God, Monica.
It's Frank Crawford.
The man's got maybe 30
square feet of lawn, right?
He's on a lawn tractor!
I believe you.
Lawn tractor.
Come back to bed.
I can't sleep!
The noise!
I mean, listen
to that thing!
It sounds like
a 20-ton jackhammer!
Well, then go downstairs
and tell him to stop.
That's the neighbor
from hell.
He was in the marines
for 15 years.
You saw the movie Rambo.
We gotta consider
the Rambo factor here.
Arlo, why don't you
go downstairs and talk to him
or, better yet,
come back to bed.
You shouldn't
just stand there
getting yourself
all worked up.
You know what happens.
Your nose starts bleeding.
My nose bled once.
Once!
For 5 days.
Sh*t!
Arlo:
They're calledrocket launchers.
Mm-hmm.
How many you want?
Oh, I want
a dozen of 'em.
Boy:
Ok.I knew I could
count on you.
Monica:
Marshall?Yes?
It's your turn
to feed flipper.
Come on.
Ok.
Wait a minute.
There's Whitney Houston!
Daddy, please.
Well, I didn't believe it.
It was Whitney Houston.
Hi, mom.
Hi, sweetheart.
I can have
the car today, right?
Wrong.
You may not.
You know, I really would
like to know what the use
if I can't drive.
Girlfriend,
I need my car today.
Ok? I have my art class,
and then I have
choir rehearsal.
Dad, how about you?
Can I borrow
your car
and you take
the bus to work?
Um, let me get this right.
You take my $24,000
brand-new Saab,
and I take the bus.
Is that your plan?
Yeah. Can I?
Mmm. I have to
mull that over.
I think not.
Daddy.
You know, Natalie Townsend
has her own car.
Then your problem's solved.
You ride to school
with Natalie Townsend.
That's not funny.
You know, you're
treating me like a child.
Well, I wonder why.
Ok. Just wait till
I'm 18, and I'm gone.
You're gonna be
out of my pocket?
Great!
I'm going. Mmm.
See you guys!
Boys:
Bye.Bye, sweetie.
Good morning,
Mr. pear.
Good morning, Victor.
Take care
of my baby.
You bet.
I'll help you
with that, ma'am.
Oh, why, thank you.
You hold this
for me.
Yes.
Thanks.
Hunh!
Excuse me.
You work out?
No. I used to.
Well, you gotta
keep at it.
No pain, no gain.
Oh, really?
I have
a different motto.
No pain...
Sounds good to me.
Well,
this is me.
Me, too.
Oh.
You work here?
Starting today.
Huh. Welcome aboard.
Arlo pear.
Oh, Helen Fredericks.
Listen, why don't
you just leave that
with the receptionist,
and I'll pick it up later.
Ok. I'll do that.
Arlo:
I do allour mass transit stuff,
you know, bus lines,
subway, stuff like that?
It's a battle to the death--
me versus gridlock.
Helen:
Sounds very exciting.
Oh, it is.
Good morning.
How ya doin'?
Morning, John.
John:
Hi.You're gonna like it here.
Everybody's real nice.
Well, this is where I live.
Feel free
to stop by anytime.
Woman:
Poor guy.He doesn't know yet.
Helen:
Oh...Arlo, Arlo, relax.
Now, this isn't easy
for me, either.
Who's the woman?
Name's Helen.
Helen fredericks.
She, uh, works
with Jansen.
So, the merger
went through.
Yeah, the merger
went through.
We signed the deal
Friday night.
Congratulations!
You got a bulb
burnt out here, Roy.
Arlo, listen...
With a merger
like this,
there are
always certain...
Changes.
Don't bullshit me.
Roy, if you're gonna
let me go, just tell me.
Arlo, I'm sorry.
So, that's it?
After 15 years?
Arlo, listen,
this is, uh--
this is
my home number, huh?
Why don't you call me
if you need a little--
any assistance,
anything.
F*** you, Roy!
After 15 years!
F*** you!
The wrong finger.
I gave the man
the wrong finger!
Sweetheart,
it's all right!
No, it's not.
I stood in his face
for 10 minutes
arguing
and held up
my index finger.
The wrong finger!
Arlo, sit down.
Listen to me.
Don't torture yourself.
Ok? We'll be fine.
You are a terrific
transportation engineer,
one of the best
in the country.
Now, tomorrow morning,
we'll put a new rsum
together,
and by the end of the week,
you'll have your choice
of jobs. You'll see.
I gave him
the wrong finger!
I said on the porch!
Is this a porch?
Huh? Does it look
like a porch to you?
It looks like
a shrub to me!
Now pay attention!
Shrub!
Green, leafy!
Shrub!
Porch!
Flat, concrete,
hard, brick!
Porch!
Shrub!
Porch!
You got it now,
soldier?! Huh?
Yes, sir.
Sorry, sir.
Hey!
What are you
starin' at?
Get in
the house, boys.
Come on. Don't make
eye contact.
Is your old man still
lookin' for a job?
Tell him we could use
a good paperboy around here!
This kid ain't cuttin' it!
I'm calling
about the Ginsu knives.
Arlo pear.
P...E...A...R.
He won't remember me.
Sure he will.
He danced with you
3 times that night.
But, Natalie,
he's different.
I mean, look at him.
Will you shut up
and get in there?
Come on, move your feet.
Left, right.
That's it.
It's called walking.
No problem.
You got it.
Hi. Can I help you?
I'm just looking.
Hey, we met
at the party.
Party?
Right. At Duane's house.
I'm Kevin.
Oh, yeah, right.
I thought I'd never
find you again.
Really?
I wanted to call you,
but I didn't know
your number.
Well, it's
in the book.
I didn't know
your name.
Well, that's
in the book, too.
How about puttin' it
in this book?
Ok.
Ok. Bye.
Bye.

Oh, that's
even better.
