( Birds Chirping )

You Hear That, Cliff?

The Birds Are Chirping.

It's The Sound Of Spring.

Yeah.

Little Fellas Flew
All The Way From Florida.

There They Are.

Say, Fellas,
You See This, Don't You?

We'll Make The Same Deal
As Last Year.

Every Day I Give You
A Couple Of These.

You Stay Away From
My Car, Right?

There You Go!

Vanessa:
You're A Thief
And A Liar!

Rudy:
I Am Not!

You're Stingy
And Stupid.

( Door Slamming )

Hey!

Vanessa:
Yes, Dad?

Hold It Down.

I've About Had It
With Those Two.

Every Single Day
They Are Fighting.

I'll Think About Their Childhood
As Rounds, Not Years.

( Door Slamming )

( Feet Stomping )

Hey!

I'm Sorry, Dear.

( Birds Chirping )

Nature Was Not Always Correct.

It Should Have Been The Children
To Fly South.

This Is My Day For Errands

And You Stay With
The Dueling Duo.

Come On.

I'll See You
In An Hour.

Wait.

Don't Leave Me!

Don't Leave Me Here
With Them.

Don't Leave Me Here
By Myself.

Tomorrow, Is It Possible

That You And I Could
Go On A Picnic By Ourselves?

Spring Has Always
Done This To You.

Yeah.

Yo!

♪ Beat It! ♪

( Birds Chirping )

( Door Slamming
And Feet Stomping )

Rudy:
I Wish You
Weren't My Sister.

Vanessa:
Why Don't You
Crawl Under A Rock?

Rudy:
Why Don't You Crawl
Into The Sewer?

( Birds Chirping )

( Door Slamming
And Feet Stomping )

Hey!

Rudy And Vanessa:
Yes, Dad?

Come Down Here.

I Want To See You.

I Did Not
Do Anything.

Sit Down.

What Happened..?

Sit Down!

Daddy...

Sit Down, Please, Sit Down.

Are You All Not Happy
Here At Hotel Huxtable?

You Sound Like You're Making
Adjustments On The Doors.

You Seem That You Want
To Bring Them In With You

Whenever You
Close Them.

If There Are Problems That Exist
In The Hotel Huxtable

Your Mother And I,
Your Gracious Hosts

Really Value
Any Suggestions You Have.

We're Sorry.

It Won't Happen Again
As Long As She Doesn't Start It.

You Started It.

I'm Having A Problem Right Now

Because I Have My Ceiling
That Collapsed.

I Want The Mess Cleaned Up.

Oh, Man!

You Get The Dustpan,
You Get The Broom

And I'm Going Up To See

What Trouble Went On
In Your Suite Upstairs--

What Is Broken
And What Is Not.

This Wouldn't Have Happened

If You Hadn't Stolen
My Bobby Brown Tape.

You Should Have
Lent It To Me.

Can We Just Do This?

The Sooner I'm Away From You,
The Better.

Hey!

You Don't Know How
To Hold A Dustpan.

I Want The Broom.

Give It To Me!

Ooh, You're In
Big Trouble Now.

Hey!

She Did It.

She Tried To Take
The Broom Away.

She Swept Dust
In My Eyes.

Hey!!

I Went Up
And Looked At That Room.

The Door Is Hanging
On The Hinge.

The Chair That
Goes With The Desk...

The Legs Are
Completely Splintered.

Because Vanessa
Threw It.

You'll Pay For It
Out Of Your Allowance.

Now Sweep The Mess Up.

May I Use The Sink?

As Soon As I'm Done.

Can You Hurry?

You're Doing This On Purpose.

I Am Not.

Nobody Brushes Their Teeth
That Slowly.

I Do.

Get Out Of The Way.

Hey!

Ow!

Daddy!

I Did Not Do Anything.

I Was Brushing My Teeth
And She Pushed Me.

She's Been Hogging The Bathroom
All Morning.

I Think My Arm Is Broken.

Go To Your Room
And Keep Waving It.

It Will Get Better.

I Hope You Ground Her Good.

I Was Trying To Put On My Makeup
And She Shoved Me.

Did You Hit Her?

Yeah, But...

Hitting Each Other
Is Not Allowed.

But She Is Constantly
Provoking Me.

She Does That On Purpose

And You're A Sucker For That
Every Time.

You Keep
Falling For That.

An Older Person
Should Know Better

Than To Let A Young Person
Pull A Trick Like That.

If You Know She Does This

Why Do You
Yell At Me?

Are You Telling Me
That I'm Not Too Bright?

No, Dad.

It Was Just An Observation.

You Appear To Be Telling Me That
You Don't Think I'm That Bright.

You're Very Bright.

It's Just That
She Gets Away With Everything.

You Seem To Have
Forgotten The Fact

That When You Were Little

You Used To Do The Same Thing
To Theo.

But Theo Really Did
Bad Things To Me First.

Yes, But You Were The Person
Who Started It First.

I Expect Older People
To Know Better.

You're Older Than All Of Us.

You Should Understand
What She's Doing To Me.

Which Gets Back
To Your Original Statement

That You Don't Think
I'm Too Bright.

May I Be Excused?

Why Did You Come In?

To Put On Makeup.

Then Why Would You Ask
To Be Excused?

You Haven't
Done It Yet.

You're The One
Who's Not Too Bright.

World w*r Five.

Rudy And Vanessa?!

Yes.

I'm Going To...

No, No, No!

It Isn't Necessary, Dear.

I've Talked To Them,
And We Have It All Cleared Up.

They Are Peaceful And Gentle
With Each Other Now.

Hi, Mom.

Hello.

Rudy, You Want
Some Orange Juice?

That Would Be Lovely.

I'll Set Places
At The Table.

Thank You.

Here You Go.

Thank You.

You're Welcome.

Mom, It's Okay.

I Don't Have A Fever.

I Must Say, It's Very Nice
To See You All

Behaving So Politely
To Each Other.

Thank You.

It's Easy For Me

Because I Have
Better Manners Than You.

It's Not Good Manners
To Tell Someone Else

That You Have Better Manners
Than They Do.

It's True.

If You Had Better Manners

Maybe You'd Have A Boyfriend
Right Now

Which You
Do Not

Because You're A Pig.

You're The Slop That Pigs Eat.

You Are The Piggy That Makes
All The Other Piggies Sick.

That Does It.

Stop It!

What Are You Doing?

I Just Wanted
To Straighten Her Shirt.

No, No, Come On.

That's It.

I Want Both Of You
To Go Upstairs.

I Want You To Take Your Clothes
Out Of The Drawers

And Put Them In Suitcases.

Pack Right Now.

You're Not Serious?!

Is This A Serious Face?

You're Throwing Us
Out Of The House?

No, Of Course I'm Not
Throwing You Out Of The House.

You're Moving Into The Basement.

Mom!

Your Mother Has Nothing
To Do With It.

I Am Father!

Hit It.

I'm Serious.

Hit It.

Good-Bye.

But...

We Get The Point.

We Won't Fight Anymore.

We've Learned
Our Lesson.

This Is Not A Lesson.

This Is The Way
It's Going To Be.

But We Promise, Really.

We Won't Fight Anymore.

Yeah, Dad.

Look, See.

We're Getting Along.

I Love You!

That's Wonderful.

I Love To See That.

I'm Happy That You All
Love Each Other.

But This Is Where
You're Going To Be.

Just Enjoy
Yourselves.

Like Your
Mother Said

If You Get Hungry,
Go Upstairs Anytime You Want To.

If You Want To Wash Up,
Go Upstairs Anytime You Want To.

Think About The Bright Side
Of It.

You Have A Washer And A Dryer.

Your Clothes Will
Always Be Clean.

Come On.

The Joke's Over, Right?

This Is No Joke.

Isn't This Like When
You Took Theo To The Army?

The Army Would Not Take Theo.

The Basement Will Take You.

What Do We Do Now?

This Is All A Bluff.

Nobody Would Do This
To Their Kids.

He's Standing Outside
The Door Waiting.

He'll Come Back Any Minute.

Just Wait.

Wait.

( s Swing Music )

There.

It's Just Like The Old Saying:

"When You're Given Lemons,
You Make Lemonade."

That Doesn't Even Make Sense.

You've Been Moping Around
For Three Hours.

You'd Feel A Lot Better

If You Did Something
With Your Side Of The Room.

I'm Not Staying Here Long.

How Are You Getting Out?

I've Got Plans.

Big Plans.

Sooner Or Later

I'm Busting Out Of This Joint.

In The Meantime, I Think
You Owe It To Me To Tidy Up

So I Don't Have
To Look At That Mess.

I Owe It To You?

Yes.

Do You Want To Know

What I Owe You?

This Is What I Owe You.

That Is What I Owe You.

All Right.

All Right, Fine.

I Think It's Time
For You To Unpack.

I Can Always Get More Lipstick.

Fine.

What Are You Doing?

Making A Wish.

Leave It Alone!

No!

You Took My Blouse

And Ruined It.

Ah.

This Reminds Me
Of A Movie I Once Saw--

Women Behind Bars.

What Do You Want?

I Came Down
To See My Basement Beauties.

How's It Going?

Fine.

That's Good.

I Was Talking To Mom And Dad

And It Seems Like You Two
Will Be Down Here

For A Long, Long Time.

Yeah? Well, Don't Bet The Farm
On That.

Right.

I Hope Both Of You
Can Appreciate

The Poetic Justice
Of The Situation.

After All The Trouble

Both Of You Have Gotten Me Into
Through The Years

I'd Call This Sweet Revenge.

We Like It Just Fine
Down Here, Don't We, Rudy?

Yup.

I Hope You Can Still Say That
Tonight

When The Rats Come Out.

Rats?

Oh, Wait
A Minute.

Don't Listen To Him.

Dad Had An Exterminator
Here A Month Ago.

There Are No Rats.

Exterminators Can Only
Get Rid Of Living Things.

There's Something
You Guys Don't Know.

Dad Bought This House Cheap...

Because It's Built
Over A Graveyard.

And At Night

The Angry Ghosts
Come Up Through The Pipes

Just Looking
For Some Little Girl

To Take Back
With Them.

Bye, Girls.

I'm Sure I Won't Be
Your Last Visitor Tonight.

( Laughing )

I Don't Believe
A Word He Said.

Me, Neither.

That Was A Stupid Story.

( Growling )

( Screaming )

Vanessa!

( Theo Laughing )

Bienvenu Chez Moi.

Bienvenu Chez Moi.

Bienvenu Chez Moi.

Voulez-Vous Prendre
Quelque Chose?

Voulez-Vous Prendre
Quelque Chose?

Voulez-Vous Prendre
Quelque Chose?

Nous Allons Commencer
Par Des Escargots.

Nous Allons Commencer
Par Des Escargots.

Comment Mommencer...

Escargot.
Escargot.

How's It Going?

Tres Bon,
Maman Et Papa.

Escargot.

You Fixed It Up
Very Nicely Down Here.

We Haven't Heard Any Fighting
In A While.

We Figured Either
You're Getting Along

Or You k*lled Each Other.

The Tape Is Off
Your Bedroom Doors.

You're Free To Go Back.

Yes!

Oh!

Thank You, Daddy.

Thank You, Mommy.

Sweet Liberty!

Looks Nice Down Here.
