Sheldon, time to go.

20
00:00:47,631 --> 00:00:49,247
We really need
to get one of these.

21
00:00:49,466 --> 00:00:51,378
What on earth do we need
a computer for?

22
00:00:51,593 --> 00:00:53,550
Yeah, we got you
and your big head.

23
00:00:53,762 --> 00:00:54,377
But we can get

24
00:00:54,596 --> 00:00:55,677
so much accomplished.

25
00:00:55,889 --> 00:00:57,005
I could use
a spreadsheet program

26
00:00:57,224 --> 00:00:58,715
to keep track of your expenses.

27
00:00:58,934 --> 00:01:00,516
I do that in the back
of my checkbook.

28
00:01:00,727 --> 00:01:03,686
Yes, but does your checkbook
go "beep" when you open it?

29
00:01:04,064 --> 00:01:04,850
I don't think so.

32
00:01:08,110 --> 00:01:09,726
But my recipes <i>are</i> organized.

33
00:01:09,945 --> 00:01:11,061

34
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:12,612

00:01:12,823 --> 00:01:14,735
Cave Mom.
I'm gonna call you that.

36
00:01:14,950 --> 00:01:16,282
(sighs)
It doesn't matter, Sheldon.

37
00:01:16,493 --> 00:01:17,984
We can't afford a computer.

38
00:01:18,203 --> 00:01:20,490
Sure we can. It's only $998,

39
00:01:20,706 --> 00:01:22,914
and Dave says we can buy it
on easy monthly payments.

40
00:01:23,125 --> 00:01:24,115
That's true.

41
00:01:24,334 --> 00:01:25,245
Stay out of this, Dave.

42
00:01:25,961 --> 00:01:26,576
Come on.

43
00:01:26,795 --> 00:01:27,535
We got to get home.

44
00:01:27,754 --> 00:01:28,335
But...

45
00:01:28,547 --> 00:01:29,913
Sheldon, I said no.

46
00:01:30,132 --> 00:01:30,918

Seriously, Dave,
you're getting on my nerves.

50
00:01:36,013 --> 00:01:36,924
It's not fair.

51
00:01:37,139 --> 00:01:38,675
You bought Missy a Ring Pop.

00:01:38,974 --> 00:01:39,964
For ten cents.

53
00:01:40,183 --> 00:01:42,425
- And I'm worth every penny.

54
00:01:43,186 --> 00:01:43,846
Sorry, Dave.

55

which starts with an "E"

72
00:02:29,816 --> 00:02:30,852
Coincidence?

73
00:02:31,068 --> 00:02:32,434
I don't think so.

00:02:38,784 --> 00:02:39,991
But now more than ever.

78
00:02:40,202 --> 00:02:41,693
Well, he should get a job
after school.

79
00:02:41,912 --> 00:02:42,823
Save up and buy one.

80
00:02:43,038 --> 00:02:44,700
Get a job? He's nine.

81
00:02:44,915 --> 00:02:45,996
I mowed lawns
when I was his age.

82
00:02:46,208 --> 00:02:47,164
Made pretty good money.

83
00:02:47,376 --> 00:02:49,242
You want Sheldon to mow lawns?

84
00:02:49,503 --> 00:02:51,085
He's so pale,
five minutes in the sun,

85
00:02:51,296 --> 00:02:52,787
he'd burst into flames.

86
00:02:53,006 --> 00:02:54,292
I would pay to see that.

87
00:02:54,508 --> 00:02:55,373
Shut up, Georgie.

88
00:02:55,967 --> 00:02:56,582
<i>I hope you told him</i>

89
00:02:56,802 --> 00:02:57,588
we can't afford it.

90
00:02:57,803 --> 00:02:58,839
Of course.

91
00:02:59,513 --> 00:03:00,503
I could buy it for him,

92
00:03:00,722 --> 00:03:02,554
and then y'all could pay
me back when you can.

93
00:03:03,767 --> 00:03:05,508
Okay, Connie, now you're
just insulting me.

94
00:03:05,727 --> 00:03:07,343
Well, that was not my intention,

95
00:03:07,562 --> 00:03:09,144
but I'm glad to hear it.

96
00:03:09,606 --> 00:03:10,596
I can pay my own bills

97
00:03:10,816 --> 00:03:11,852
and take care of my family.

98
00:03:12,067 --> 00:03:14,184
There are expenses
we could cut back on

99
00:03:14,403 --> 00:03:15,860
so we could afford a computer.

100
00:03:16,071 --> 00:03:17,607
You mean like the money
you give to church?

101
00:03:18,031 --> 00:03:19,738
No, I mean like
the money you give

102
00:03:19,950 --> 00:03:21,486
to the Lone Star Beer company.

103
00:03:21,702 --> 00:03:22,863
(chuckles) Good one, Mom.

104
00:03:23,078 --> 00:03:24,034
- Shut up.
- Shut up, pumpkin. - Shut up.

105
00:03:24,246 --> 00:03:25,236
We're not getting a computer.

106
00:03:25,455 --> 00:03:27,196
We don't need your money.

107
00:03:28,333 --> 00:03:29,323
Where are you going?

108
00:03:29,876 --> 00:03:32,084
To get a... glass of milk.

109
00:03:32,295 --> 00:03:33,752
He's lying. He's getting a beer.

110
00:03:33,964 --> 00:03:35,125
Shut up, Georgie.

111
00:03:35,799 --> 00:03:36,710
(refrigerator opens)

112
00:03:42,764 --> 00:03:43,971
Mom?

113
00:03:44,975 --> 00:03:46,557
Why are you still up?

114
00:03:47,060 --> 00:03:49,552
Madame Curie is on the roof,

115
00:03:49,771 --> 00:03:52,764
and she's not wearing her hat.

116
00:03:52,983 --> 00:03:54,269
You're just dreaming, baby.

117
00:03:55,026 --> 00:03:57,734
But she'll be cold
without her hat.

118
00:03:57,946 --> 00:03:59,903
I'll give her mine.
Now you go to sleep.

119
00:04:00,407 --> 00:04:01,648
Mm, thanks, Mom.

120
00:04:01,867 --> 00:04:03,233
You're the best.

121
00:04:06,413 --> 00:04:07,449

123
00:04:22,596 --> 00:04:24,758
I'm guessing we're not having
our once-a-week.

124
00:04:25,682 --> 00:04:28,425
Sorry, I only have relations
with gentlemen I like.

125
00:04:28,852 --> 00:04:31,435
Oh, come on. You know how I feel

126
00:04:31,646 --> 00:04:33,478
about your mother meddlin'
in our finances.

127
00:04:33,690 --> 00:04:35,977
She wasn't meddlin',
she was offering to help.

128
00:04:36,193 --> 00:04:38,059
And that computer
is not some silly toy.

129
00:04:38,278 --> 00:04:40,065
Sheldon could use it
for his schoolwork,

130
00:04:40,280 --> 00:04:43,114
and I could use it to...
organize my recipes.

131
00:04:43,325 --> 00:04:45,112
You already got 'em organized
on those little cards.

132
00:04:45,327 --> 00:04:46,488
Yeah, like a cave person.

133
00:04:46,703 --> 00:04:48,740
Well, it doesn't matter.

134
00:04:48,955 --> 00:04:50,662
We can't afford it,
end of story.

135
00:04:51,333 --> 00:04:53,165
Not exactly end of story.

136
00:04:53,877 --> 00:04:54,583
What's that mean?

137
00:04:54,795 --> 00:04:56,627
I've been setting money aside
the last couple of years,

138
00:04:56,838 --> 00:04:58,420
and this might be a good use
for it.

139
00:04:59,549 --> 00:05:00,665
Money from what?

140
00:05:00,884 --> 00:05:02,466
You know, here and there.

141
00:05:03,261 --> 00:05:05,173
Bookkeeping for the church,

142
00:05:05,388 --> 00:05:06,378
some seamstress work,

143
00:05:06,598 --> 00:05:08,510
birthday money
from my Aunt Zelda.

144
00:05:09,100 --> 00:05:10,341
And just how much
of this "here and there" money

145
00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:11,641
you got saved up?

146
00:05:11,853 --> 00:05:13,469
Well, seeing as it's my money,

147
00:05:13,688 --> 00:05:15,145
I don't think
that's any of your business.

148
00:05:15,357 --> 00:05:16,768
(chuckles):
None of my business?

149
00:05:17,359 --> 00:05:17,974
You see every nickel

150
00:05:18,193 --> 00:05:19,855
I make,
and you got secret money?

151
00:05:20,070 --> 00:05:21,811
It's not secret.
I just told you.

152
00:05:22,489 --> 00:05:23,650
Where you hiding it?

153
00:05:23,865 --> 00:05:26,323
(sighs) Well, now you're headed
into secret territory.

154
00:05:26,535 --> 00:05:28,401
Oh, okay.

155
00:05:28,787 --> 00:05:30,779
Just so I'm clear,
my money's our money,

156
00:05:30,997 --> 00:05:32,283
but your money's your money.

157
00:05:32,499 --> 00:05:33,159
That's right.

158
00:05:33,375 --> 00:05:35,287
Oh, good to know.

159
00:05:37,003 --> 00:05:38,335
I'm glad we're not having
our once-a-week

160
00:05:38,547 --> 00:05:40,129
'cause I am not in the mood.

161
00:05:42,676 --> 00:05:43,462
Really?

162
00:05:43,677 --> 00:05:45,134
That's too bad.

163
00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:46,927
Why? Are you?

164
00:05:47,305 --> 00:05:48,216
No!

165
00:05:51,184 --> 00:05:52,391

I forgot to tell you,
a girl called for you.

168
00:06:03,238 --> 00:06:04,024
What girl?

169
00:06:04,239 --> 00:06:05,730
I don't know. A girl.

170
00:06:05,949 --> 00:06:06,905
Well, what'd she say?

171
00:06:07,117 --> 00:06:09,325
It's hard to remember.
This was months ago.

172
00:06:11,454 --> 00:06:12,285
Hey.

173
00:06:13,206 --> 00:06:13,992
Two cases?

174
00:06:14,207 --> 00:06:15,539
You've got to be kidding me.

175
00:06:15,750 --> 00:06:17,161
Don't worry,
I didn't use your money.

176
00:06:17,377 --> 00:06:18,538
I used mine.

We are going to Meemaw's.

181
00:06:27,178 --> 00:06:27,793
Why?

182
00:06:28,013 --> 00:06:30,255
Because your mom and dad
need a break from each other.

183
00:06:31,474 --> 00:06:32,305
For how long?

184
00:06:32,517 --> 00:06:34,304
I don't know. Just pack.

185
00:06:34,978 --> 00:06:36,059
Will I need earmuffs?

186
00:06:36,271 --> 00:06:37,603
Sure, if you want.

Although my almanac
does predict mild temperatures.

188
00:06:40,775 --> 00:06:41,891
Then don't bring it.

189
00:06:42,402 --> 00:06:43,859
I'll just bring my almanac.

190
00:06:44,070 --> 00:06:45,356
You know what, I'll bring both.

00:06:48,533 --> 00:06:50,650
or use the one
I keep at Meemaw's?

194
00:06:51,119 --> 00:06:52,030
I got this one.

195
00:06:52,621 --> 00:06:53,782
Nobody cares.

196
00:06:54,789 --> 00:06:56,075
I don't want
to go to Meemaw's house.

What if that girl calls back?

198
00:06:57,792 --> 00:06:59,283
Fine, then stay here
with your father.

199
00:06:59,502 --> 00:07:01,664
Sheldon and Missy, we are out
of here in half an hour.

200
00:07:04,257 --> 00:07:06,624
Not a lot of time
to pick a toothbrush.

- Yeah.

Hello, Georgie speaking.

00:07:48,468 --> 00:07:50,676
Did you run to the phone?
Do you feel stupid?

214
00:07:53,556 --> 00:07:54,592
Who was it?

215
00:07:54,975 --> 00:07:56,091
Nobody.

216
00:07:57,560 --> 00:07:58,175
This little tiff

217
00:07:58,395 --> 00:07:59,602
between your mom and me
will blow over.

218
00:07:59,813 --> 00:08:01,020
Don't make a big deal of it.

219
00:08:01,231 --> 00:08:02,472
I'm not. I'm just saying

220
00:08:02,691 --> 00:08:04,227
I'm better suited
to the single life.

221
00:08:04,859 --> 00:08:05,975
And how do you picture that?

222
00:08:06,194 --> 00:08:08,106
Okay, well, you know the buffet
at Golden Corral,

223
00:08:08,321 --> 00:08:09,277
where there's all kinds
of choices

224
00:08:09,489 --> 00:08:10,946
and you can have
as much as you want?

225
00:08:11,157 --> 00:08:11,817
Yeah.

226
00:08:12,033 --> 00:08:14,525
It'll be like that,
only with hot girls.

227
00:08:16,121 --> 00:08:17,362
Georgie, I'll bet you
a thousand dollars

228
00:08:17,580 --> 00:08:19,321
you're married before you're 25.

229
00:08:20,458 --> 00:08:21,448
You got a bet.

230
00:08:22,335 --> 00:08:24,167
I feel like
I'm stealing your money.

Well, I got to tell you
how happy I am

234
00:08:36,307 --> 00:08:38,924
that y'all are spending
the night with me.

235
00:08:39,144 --> 00:08:41,261
Your house smells
like cigarettes.

236
00:08:41,479 --> 00:08:42,310
So happy.

237
00:08:42,522 --> 00:08:43,933
Sheldon, we've
talked about this.

238
00:08:44,149 --> 00:08:46,357
You don't need to announce
to people how things smell.

239
00:08:46,568 --> 00:08:47,228
Hmm.

240
00:08:47,610 --> 00:08:48,817
All right, you two, settle in.

241
00:08:49,029 --> 00:08:51,146
Are you and Dad
gonna get a divorce?

242
00:08:51,364 --> 00:08:52,650
Of course not.

243
00:08:52,866 --> 00:08:54,448
Are you sure?
Packing up your kids

244
00:08:54,659 --> 00:08:56,400
in the middle of the night
and moving in with your mom

245
00:08:56,619 --> 00:08:58,576
has all the earmarks
of a divorce.

246
00:08:58,788 --> 00:09:00,495
We're not getting a divorce.

247
00:09:00,707 --> 00:09:02,073
Okay, go to sleep.

248
00:09:02,292 --> 00:09:03,703
Sweet dreams.

249
00:09:11,885 --> 00:09:15,049
I can't believe Mom and Dad
had a fight over beer.

250
00:09:15,555 --> 00:09:17,421
I don't think
the fight was about beer.

251
00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:19,302
I think there was
more subtext.

252
00:09:19,851 --> 00:09:21,387
You're probably right.

253
00:09:21,770 --> 00:09:24,387
Then again,
I don't know what subtext is.

254
00:09:28,234 --> 00:09:29,645
I don't want to get
in your business,

255
00:09:29,861 --> 00:09:31,318
but since you're
getting in my bed,

256
00:09:31,529 --> 00:09:33,737
- I'm getting in your business.
- Go ahead.

257
00:09:34,574 --> 00:09:35,564
When you leaving?

258
00:09:36,034 --> 00:09:37,366
Very funny.

259
00:09:37,577 --> 00:09:39,034
That wasn't a joke.

260
00:09:39,245 --> 00:09:40,986
I love you, and
I love the kids,

261
00:09:41,206 --> 00:09:43,072
but I love you better
living across the street.

262
00:09:43,291 --> 00:09:46,079
Sorry the end of my marriage
is inconveniencing you.

263
00:09:46,294 --> 00:09:47,535
Oh, don't be so dramatic.

264
00:09:47,754 --> 00:09:48,710
It's a little spat.

265
00:09:48,922 --> 00:09:51,005
No, this was
a long time coming.

266
00:09:51,216 --> 00:09:54,004
This goes to the very core
of our relationship.

267
00:09:54,469 --> 00:09:55,880
I see we're sticking
with dramatic.

268
00:09:56,096 --> 00:09:58,713
The minute he found out
I had money set aside,

269
00:09:58,932 --> 00:10:00,423
he felt threatened.
And you know why?

270
00:10:00,642 --> 00:10:02,884
'Cause it meant that I can
live independent of him.

271
00:10:03,103 --> 00:10:04,719
Sleeping in your
mommy's bed?

272
00:10:04,938 --> 00:10:06,395
You know what I mean.

273
00:10:08,691 --> 00:10:10,478
You gonna buy Sheldon
that computer?

274
00:10:10,693 --> 00:10:12,685
Well, now I have to.

275
00:10:12,904 --> 00:10:13,735
Got it.

276
00:10:23,832 --> 00:10:26,791
You do know I still have
an active love life.

277
00:10:27,001 --> 00:10:28,242
Just go to sleep.

278
00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:35,166
On this very bed.

279
00:10:35,385 --> 00:10:37,422
Oh, Mom.

280
00:10:42,934 --> 00:10:44,300
What's for breakfast?

281
00:10:44,644 --> 00:10:46,135
I don't know. Grab
a bowl of cereal.

282
00:10:46,354 --> 00:10:48,095
Mom usually makes us
eggs and toast

283
00:10:48,314 --> 00:10:49,475
and the occasional meat.

284
00:10:49,691 --> 00:10:51,102
Well, Mom isn't here, is she?

285
00:10:51,609 --> 00:10:54,977
Whoa. Somebody woke up
on the wrong side of the bed.

286
00:10:55,488 --> 00:10:57,445
And you had a choice
'cause you had the whole bed.

287
00:10:57,699 --> 00:10:58,359
Georgie.

288
00:10:58,825 --> 00:11:00,282
Walking on thin ice.

289
00:11:00,702 --> 00:11:02,785
Maybe you should go across
the street and apologize.

290
00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:05,366
I can't do that.

291
00:11:05,665 --> 00:11:06,655
Why not?

292
00:11:07,041 --> 00:11:08,828
'Cause if I do,
it sets a bad precedent.

293
00:11:09,043 --> 00:11:10,784
What's Nixon got to do with it?

294
00:11:11,296 --> 00:11:11,956
What?

295
00:11:12,172 --> 00:11:14,755
You said "bad president,"
like Nixon.

296
00:11:14,966 --> 00:11:16,798
You know, this guy.

297
00:11:20,805 --> 00:11:22,091
You going to apologize?

298
00:11:23,850 --> 00:11:24,636
<i>Dad!</i>

299
00:11:25,185 --> 00:11:25,925
Dad!

300
00:11:27,187 --> 00:11:29,645
If you are, bring back meat!

301
00:11:38,573 --> 00:11:39,279
GEORGE JR.:
<i>Hey.</i>

302
00:11:40,116 --> 00:11:41,357
I hope you're happy.

303
00:11:41,993 --> 00:11:43,905
Thank you, Georgie.
That's very kind.

304
00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:45,531
Mom and Dad are fighting
because you want

305
00:11:45,747 --> 00:11:47,158
to get a stupid computer.

306
00:11:48,166 --> 00:11:49,077
What are you talking about?

307
00:11:49,292 --> 00:11:50,408
Mom wanted
to buy it for you,

308
00:11:50,627 --> 00:11:51,492
Dad said they couldn't
afford it,

309
00:11:51,711 --> 00:11:52,747
Meemaw offered
to pay for it,

310
00:11:52,962 --> 00:11:54,703
and now I'm eating
pineapple spears for lunch.

311
00:11:55,131 --> 00:11:56,963
I hate making
my own lunch.

312
00:11:57,258 --> 00:11:58,715
I'm sorry, Georgie,
I didn't know.

313
00:11:58,927 --> 00:12:00,463
Yeah, well, now you do.

314
00:12:00,678 --> 00:12:01,668
What did you get?

315
00:12:01,888 --> 00:12:04,175
A turkey sandwich Mom cut
in the shape of a heart,

316
00:12:04,390 --> 00:12:05,631
a fruit cup, a brownie,

317
00:12:05,850 --> 00:12:08,092
and a note from Meemaw saying
how much she loves me.

318
00:12:09,229 --> 00:12:11,516
I haven't read it yet,
but I bet it's a lot.

319
00:12:11,731 --> 00:12:13,814
I don't even have
a can opener.

320
00:12:16,194 --> 00:12:19,187
Oh, Sugar Apple,
I love you so much.

321
00:12:19,405 --> 00:12:22,148
Your affection for
inanimate objects frightens me.

322
00:12:22,367 --> 00:12:23,824
I'm glad you're happy, Missy.

323
00:12:24,035 --> 00:12:27,574
I'm even happier that I got
a toy, and Sheldon got nothin'.

324
00:12:27,872 --> 00:12:28,988
MARY: <i>Well, now,
we're not exactly</i>

325
00:12:29,207 --> 00:12:30,243
done shopping.
