Grandpa, Are You Ready For Your Walk Today?
Yes, Indeedy!
Let's Take A Walk Around The Park.
Okay.
I Just Love The Park.
Look, Grandpa.
There's A Tree.
Hi, Mr. Tree.
How's Those Leaves Hanging?
There's Mr. Squirrel.
Hi, Mr. Squirrel.
Don't Chew
With Your Mouth Open.
Hey.
Look, Grandpa.
It's Dr. Huxtable.
Say Hello.
Hi, Doc.
Don't Give Me Any Nasty Medicine.
Well, How Are You, Grandpa?
You Seem To Be A Little Stiff Today.
And Who Are All These Other Little Stiff People
Around You, Grandpa?
This Is Grandma, This Is Dad
Their Son, Television, And Their Daughter, Radio.
"Their Son, Television, And Their Daughter, Radio"?
Yes.
Television And Radio Clothespin?
The Wilsons.
(Phone Ringing)
Clair: I'll Get It.
The Wilsons Are Going On Their Sunday Drive.
Where You Going To Drive Them?
To Disney World.
You Can't Go To Disney World.
You Didn't Win A Super Bowl.
Cliff, Pick Up.
It's Mrs. Mcgee, Rudy's Teacher.
Hello, Mrs. Mcgee.
How Are You?
Good Afternoon, Dr. Huxtable.
Good Afternoon.
Usually When You Call
Rudy's In Some Kind Of Trouble.
I'm Not Calling You To Tell You How Much I Miss You.
(Phony Chuckle)
Rudy's Class Has A Project On Life In The 1920s.
Rudy's Assignment
Is To Perform A Dance From That Period.
George Thompson Is A Classmate Of Rudy's
And He's An Excellent Dancer.
He Takes It All Very Seriously And He's Marvelous.
Rudy Is Talented As Well
So I Made Them A Team
To Do A Routine For Friday Night's Presentation.
How's Rudy Doing?
Rudy Is Doing Nothing.
Maybe Since George Is Such A Great Dancer
It Isn't A Good Idea To Make Rudy His Partner.
Dr. Huxtable, That Is Absolutely Ridiculous!
He's A More Experienced Dancer
But Rudy Is A Very Talented Little Girl.
If She Applies Herself And Works Hard
She Could Dance Every Bit As Good As George Any Day.
Mrs. Huxtable, You Understand Me, Don't You?
I Understand Everything You're Saying.
Would You Do Me A Favor And Explain It To Your Husband?
And Once Again
Mrs. Huxtable, Thank You Very Much.
Good-Bye, Dr. Huxtable.
Cliff?
Yes, Dear.
We Should Talk To Rudy.
Clair: Rudy!
Come Downstairs Immediately.
Rudy: Yes, Mom.
I Should Have Known.
Every Day I've Asked
"How Did Your Dance Rehearsals Go?"
She Says, "Fine."
You'd Think I Would Know Better By Now
That If One Of Our Children Tells Me "Fine"
That Really Means, "I'm Going To Tell Mom
"Anything I Have To
As Long As She Doesn't Check Up On Me."
Hi, Mom.
Sit Down.
We Just Got A Call From Mrs. Mcgee.
Is This About Dancing?
Yes, It's About Dancing.
It's Not Fair.
George Has Been Taking Dance Lessons For Five Years.
I Can't Dance Like Him.
Mrs. Mcgee Thinks You'd Do Better If You'd Practice.
I'd Have To Practice Forever To Get That Good.
We Have To Do This By Friday.
Let Me Get This Straight.
Your Logic Is
Rather Than Practice With Somebody Who Is Good
You'd Rather Just Wait Until The Performance
And Then Stand There And Really Look Interesting?
Right.
Guess What?
You Will Be Taking Every Extra Class
That Mr. Sims Can Give You From Now Until Next Friday.
Oh, Man.
I Should Have Known
When You Spent $36 On Tap Shoes
You Were Going To Make Me Suffer.
Look, Everybody, A Magic Island.
It's Out On The Ocean.
Let's Get On The Boat And Go Over.
What's Up?
Look, Everybody.
Theo's On The Magic Island.
On A Magic Island?
Yes, You, Me And The Wilsons.
Who Are The Wilsons?
Can't You See?
They're Right Here.
This Is Grandma, This Is Dad
Here's Their Son, Television, And Their Daughter, Radio.
Oh, Okay.
Well, Hi, Wilsons.
Happy To Meet You.
Don't You Want To Play?
I Came To Talk To Dad.
Come On!
Okay.
I'll Play With Grandpa.
That's Not Grandpa, That's Grandma.
Oh, Sorry.
Wouldn't It Be Easier To Tell Them Apart
If You Painted Faces On Them?
Why? Nobody Has To Paint Your Face
To Know Who You Are.
Yeah.
Look, Theo, A Magic Cloud.
Yeah, I See It.
It's Made Of Chocolate.
Let's Eat It.
I Don't Really Have Time For That.
Chocolate Clouds Are The Best Ones.
Okay.
That's What You Call Eating?
Come On, Eat!
Okay, I'm Eating.
Mmm, Mmm.
Yum, Yum, Yum, Yum!
Chocolate Clouds Are My Favorite.
Yummy, Yummy!
Give Me More.
Mmm, Mmm.
Yum, Yum, Yum.
How You Doing?
I'm Eating Chocolate Clouds With Olivia.
Here, Have Some.
Yeah, Have Some.
Oh, Boy.
Tastes Good.
I Didn't Come
Just To Eat Clouds.
I Brought My Tuition Bill.
Get The Money From Where
You're Getting The Chocolate.
Cliff: Whoa, Whoa.
Where You Going?
To The Mall.
Rudy, You Have A Dance Class Scheduled In An Hour.
Mr. Sims Has A Class On Saturday?
We Scheduled It Especially For You.
Now Get Your Stuff.
Oh, Dad.
Just When You Think Things Couldn't Get Worse.
Sorry, Rudy.
Maybe We Can Go Next Week.
Bye, Dad.
Why Is It That You Children--
If You Have Time Off--
Go To The Mall?
What Else Is There To Do?
You Could Read A Book.
You Are Always Telling Me To Read A Book.
Read What Book?
What About Ionesco?
Wrote A Wonderful Play, Rhinoceros.
I Read Him In School.
The Teacher Asked Us To Identify Symbolism In It.
Not One Kid Had A Clue.
The Biggest Drain On A Young Person's Intellect
Is Discussing Old Books.
Euripides?
Euripides, Who Wrote
Medea, Electra And The Trojan Women?
Yes.
I Read Him, Too.
Even Teachers Don't Understand Euripides.
Well, Would You Tell Me What Is So Intellectual
About Wandering Up And Down The Mall?
The Mall Has Absolutely Nothing To Do With Intellect.
Then Why Are You Going To The Mall?
For Relaxation, I Go And Look In Stores.
And Look For Boys.
No Doubt About It.
But I Also Go And Meet My Friends There.
And Look For Boys.
No Doubt About It.
But There's A Bookstore, And Sometimes I Go In.
And Look For Boys.
Yeah.
No Doubt About It.
All Right. Yes.
What's Wrong With Looking For Boys?
Denise Married A Boy, Sondra Married A Boy
Mom Married A Boy-- Or What Used To Be A Boy.
And Someday
I Hope To Be Married, Too.
But If I Don't Start Meeting Boys
I Could Be Living Here The Rest Of My Life.
Go To The Mall.
And Look For Boys.
Hi, Rudy.
Hi.
I'm Glad You're Here.
When You See How Bad I Am, You'll Take Me Out Of Class
Before I Embarrass The Huxtable Name.
Your Mother Says Just Do The Best You Can, Okay?
You'll Be Sorry.
So This Is Where You Dance.
Yup.
It's A Good Place To Dance.
There's Nothing To Break.
Where's Your Partner, George?
He's Not Here.
Look, I Don't Think He's That Good.
You're Talking About...
Get Started, George.
All Right.
Five, Six, Seven And One...
Yes, And Turn And Lean.
Hi, Rudy.
All Right.
That's George.
At Least Your Shoes Are Better Than His.
Now I'm Sure That Mrs. Mcgee
Put You With Somebody Who Was Great
So That You Would Be Even Better.
All Right, Rudy And George, Let's Get Started.
You're A Little Old For This Class.
No, I'm Not In The Class, Sir.
I'm Her Father.
I've Come To Watch.
Dr. Huxtable, I'm Mrs. Mitchell.
I've Been Putting Together A Routine For George And Rudy.
Thank You.
I Appreciate It.
You Ready To Practice?
I Guess So. Yeah.
Come On.
Mr. Sims, When I'm Finished
I'll Bring Them Back
And You Can See How They're Doing.
Can I Come?
Sure, Sugar, Come On.
(Phone Ringing)
Excuse Me, I Have To Get That.
(Making Tap Sounds)
Challenge!
We're Back.
Yay!
Mr. Sims: How They Doing?
I Think You Better Take A Look.
("I'm Just Wild About Harry")
Five, Six, Seven, Eight...
No, Rudy, It's...
You Can Do It Now.
It's Not That Bad.
Come On, Rudy.
You're Not That Bad.
Mr. Sims, How Much Time Can You Spend With Her
Until She Gets It Right?
I Got All The Time In The World.
Thank You.
And Two And Three And Four And...
That's Better.
Yes.
And Then Smile, Rudy.
And Keep That Smile On.
All Right?
All Right, All Right.
The Dancers Are Waiting In The Wings.
We Are Moments Away From Dancing Dazzlement
And Terpsichorean Triumph.
Rudy's Outfit Is So Fly.
And I'd Like To Draw Your Attention
To The Headband She Is Wearing
That I Purchased At The Mall.
When I Grow Up, I Want To Be A Tap Dancer.
I Saw Your Moves
And You're Becoming A Regular Little Miss Tip-Tap-Toe.
Let's Sign Her Up For Lessons And Get Her Some Tap Shoes.
No, Don't Spend Your Money On That.
Then You Won't Have Enough To Move Out Of This House.
Ladies And Gentlemen, Presenting George And Rudy.
(Cheers And Applause)
("I'm Just Wild About Harry")
Denise: You Guys Are So Good.
Yes, Yes.
That Was Great.
(Phone Ringing)
Hello?
Dr. Huxtable, This Is Mrs. Mcgee.
How Are You?
I'll Get My Wife For You.
No, No, No, No, No, I Can Talk To You.
It's Not That Important.
I Just Spoke To Mr. Sims
And He Tells Me That Rudy And George
Are Going To Cut Quite A Rug Friday.
I Don't Know How You Handled This With Rudy
But He Says She's Coming On Like Gangbusters.
Well, Thank You.
Thank You Very, Very Much.
Um, Did He, Uh...
Tell You That I Danced As Well Over At His Place?
Yes, He Did
And He Said That, In Your Heart, You're A True Dancer.
Thank You.
Thank You Very Much.
We Want To Thank You For Your Spirit
And Your Loving Care Of Rudy.
You're More Than Welcome.
And I'm Very, Very Proud Of Her.
Good-Bye, Dr. Huxtable.
Thank You.
Clair: Cliff.
Hey.
I've Got Something For You.
Yeah?
You Were So Good Helping Rudy, You Deserve A Treat.
Really?
Guess.
Some Lettuce, And, Uh
With Raw Barley.
I Said A Treat.
Is Something Going To Fall On My Head?
Are You Going To Yank This Away From Me?
Huh?
For Me?
For You.
Where Have You Been?
All My Life.
