Okay, honey. It's ready.
All right, what would you like to start with?
Something light.
The gas bill.
Pen.
Bromo.
Mortgage.
Pepto.
Department store.
Shotgun.
Al, can't you go any faster?
Let's pretend we're upstairs.
I know. I'll yell, "Not yet."
That always seems to speed you up.
I'm sorry, Peg. Am I bringing you down?
Let me try another attitude.
All right, now, everybody, shoot me!
I know what he needs when he gets like this.
Dad, let's go outside and I'll toss a Frisbee to you and Buck.
No. You always toss it good to him, but me you make jump.
Must be some way I can raise my income.
I just thought of something.
Peg, do you think I should ask for a raise?
Oh, no, honey. That would be too demeaning.
Make them come to you. We can make it.
I don't mind living with a guy...
...who has a $55 limit on his Master Charge.
Kiss me with a hammer.
What's the matter, honey?
It's that school place.
They want me to be a stupid intern at some stupid station. Channel 83.
Nobody watches Channel 83.
Cosmic Dog is a pretty darn good show.
God, it's so unfair.
They gave all the cool assignments to the kids who were awake.
They're gonna make me work nights.
So now when we're wondering where you are...
...we'll check the TV station instead of the bushes.
Go dance alone in your underwear.
Al, the kids are arguing again. Would you talk to them?
Talking to them won't make them go away, Peg.
Besides, I have to concentrate on this raise thing.
It's time I got my dignity back.
Bud, let's get some Windex and a squeegee and hit the off-ramps.
Daddy needs to buy a power tie.
Mom, what am I gonna do?
If I don't do this stupid intern thing, I won't graduate.
Graduation.
Kelly, maybe it's time we had a little talk.
You're getting to be a big girl now...
...and there's something I've been putting off telling you.
But time is slipping by quickly...
...and I don't want you to learn about it on the street.
Honey, there is a thing out there that men will want you to do.
In fact, they'll expect it.
Now, no woman really enjoys it...
...but we do it, get them to marry us...
...and then never have to do it again.
That horrible thing is called...
...work.
- Hold me, Mom. I'm scared. -I know. I know.
But the important thing is to do it early, while you're still young.
That way, when your husband comes home reeking of beer...
...wanting some loving, you'll follow that fat rump upstairs.
Because you'll know...
...that no matter how disgusting the next three minutes will be...
...it still beats the hell out of work.
Thank you, Mom. You're so wise.
Well...
You can't sit on a sofa 20 hours a day and not learn something.
- Who ordered the coffee? -I did.
- Who is that? -That's our new intern.
What we need is a gimmick to get the ratings up.
Look. I made it cloudy way up in the pointy states.
Come on, Al, what is it you're gonna tell us? Is it about your raise?
Not till the whole family's here.
This news is so big, I even want the girl to hear it.
There we go.
It's time. Family--
Mom, Dad, I just got a job for $1000 a week.
- Are you kidding me? -I don't believe it.
- We're rich! -We're rich, we're rich!
Mom.
Mom, she's finally turning pro.
A successful Bundy.
On, Al...
...come and brownnose with us.
Why should I? You're already doing a good job.
I'm sorry, honey.
You had an announcement too.
Did not.
Come on, Dad, tell us. We're really interested.
Well, okay.
Well, today I made my stand at work.
I fought, I threw myself on the ground, I screamed like a woman.
But I finally got what I was after. Folks...
...you're looking at a man with a $5 a week raise.
- Gee, Kelly... -Kelly...
Hurry up, Dad, she's gonna be on in a minute.
I still think it's a pretty unfair world when someone...
...who doesn't have a high school diploma...
...makes more than someone important...
...like a Ph.D. or a shoe salesman.
Oh, honey, you may not make much money...
...but Kelly will never have the satisfaction of saying:
"I used to play a little high-school ball."
Son, one day you'll have a girl...
...just like the girl that's killing dear old Dad.
Shut up, Al.
She's coming on!
And now the Action Weather with meteorologist Bill Palomino.
And, yes, girls, I'm still single.
Now let's have some fun. Let's do weather.
It's still sunny here in Chicago, but up in Washington...
...they're expecting more clouds. Right, weather bunny?
Right-O, Bill.
Look, folks, it stays up there all by itself.
Oh, yeah, life's fair.
- And we have tornado warnings-- -Excuse me, Bill.
Bull have a little inside tip for our viewers.
You see these little clouds?
Now, they won't stick to just anything. Look.
Now, kids, don't try this at home.
Back to you, Bill.
Look at her, Al.
The product of our love.
That's not surprising, is it, Peg?
Al, I know you're a little down...
...what with Kelly making more in a day than you made in the '80s.
But, as far as I'm concerned, you're still the man in the house.
Thanks, Peg. What's for dinner?
- Veal. -I hate veal.
I know, but Kelly wanted it.
And so, as you can all see...
...Kelly Bundy overcame blinding poverty...
...to become the star she is today.
And remember, later there will be a chance...
...for all of you to purchase some of her bath water.
So now, if you'll just wave to Kelly's mother on the way out...
We'll conclude the tour with the car Kelly was conceived in...
...and the garage where she was born.
Al, isn't this exciting?
He didn't even introduce me, Peg.
Well, you know, we discussed it...
...but the legend seemed to work better with you dead.
Oh, God. What a day.
Clouds just would not stick.
I'm bleeding for you. Pass me a bread stick there.
Al, she reaches for a living.
She should relax when she's at home.
Excuse your father, honey. He's an idiot.
Peggy, tell Bud I don't have to pay to get in here.
That's right, Bud. I sold her a lifetime pass yesterday.
Kelly, I've gotta ask you a question.
I'm sorry, but I'm not allowed to reveal tomorrow's weather until tomorrow.
To hell with the weather.
Give me the poop on Palomino.
There's one warm front I wouldn't mind settling over me for a few days.
Well, actually, he's not the nice man that he appears to be.
I mean, just today after the weather...
...when I, like America...
...wondered aloud where East Dakota was...
...he went to the station manager and said, "Either the bimbo goes or I go."
Looks like things will start to get back to normal...
...so I guess the next tour comes through...
...you'll be selling my bath water.
Yeah, right, Al. Like I really kept it for five years.
I'm sorry you lost your job, Kelly.
My job? They canned him like a tuna.
I mean, after all, lam the one in the short skirt.
And you always will be, honey.
Your first job. How exciting.
Working during your high-school years.
That's what I did.
While everyone else was out having fun.
But I was saving for a college education...
...and that's what it went for.
My sister's college education.
And, of course, Mother wouldn't dream of asking her to work.
No. Because sis was too pretty and too delicate...
...to be hauling around slabs of meat.
Now she's a physicist, and I can stuff a sausage...
...with one hand tied behind my back.
So everything worked out.
I guess what I'm trying to say is...
...what happened to my life? My youth?
Peg, do you mind here?
All I want is my fair share.
To go to the prom, to work on a float...
...to have a date with a boy...
...instead of a pork shoulder I call "Vinnie."
Peggy, do I deserve to be treated like this? I mean--
Thank you.
God. She needs a date worse than I do.
Mom, she really depressed me.
Oh, honey, it's all right.
I know what would make you feel better.
Al, tell us again about your raise.
How much was it?
You're the greatest, Mom.
But I really do need some advice.
Mom, I'm on the horns of an enema.
See, in order to be the weather girl, I'd have to work full-time...
...and that would mean I'd have to quit school.
Gee, Kelly.
Quitting school's a big step.
I mean, that's where we get our pens and pencils.
And our little cartons of milk.
Al, talk to her.
What's left to say, Mama Walton?
Come here, young lady.
Now, Kelly, you've gotta stay in school.
It's important for your future.
Now, look at me.
If I didn't have a high school diploma, I'd just be a...
Well, maybe I'm not a good example...
...but it does help other people.
You know, lawyers, doctors, astronauts.
Everybody except me.
- Daddy? -Give Daddy a second here.
What happened to me?
I'm not a stupid man.
Oh, well. It's important to stay in school.
You can command a much bigger salary with a diploma than without it.
How much will they pay you to be thismweather girl?
Well, the contract is for three years at, um...
$250,000 a year.
All right. High school is for dummies.
I wanted to pull you out of 7th grade...
...but your mother and that county wouldn't let me.
What about the astronauts, Al?
You name one that's doing better than my little girl here.
Now, Pumpkin, you're going to need a manager.
Should be somebody close to you, maybe a family member...
...someone you can trust.
Well, I trust you, Daddy.
And I love you, Pumpkin.
Now, I know you want Daddy, but he doesn't come cheap.
I'm gonna have to retire from the shoe business to manage you.
Al, can't you sell shoes and rob Kelly at the same time?
Shut up, Peg, if you want to live here with me and my baby.
Now, I'll take 40% of the gross.
What's "gross" mean?
She's some special little girl, isn't she, Peg?
Daddy, can I ask you a favor?
You don't have to ask. Peg, take the boy and the dog and get out of here.
No, Dad. I want to know if I can get a Porsche.
They said I could have one if you cosign the loan.
Right, so I would be responsible. Forget it, you don't need a Porsche.
Why, for the same amount of money, you could have my old Dodge.
Come on, Kelly. Daddy's not the only parent you've got.
Forget it, Peg. You can have a percentage of our son, Buck.
- Bud. -Bud, Buck. What's the difference?
Take them both. Kelly's my baby.
And if my baby wants a Porsche, a Porsche she shall have.
- Dad, can we stop for ice cream? -We sure can, if you're paying.
- Veal again? -Kelly likes veal.
If Kelly wanted my head on a platter, would you do it for her?
Honey, for a quarter-mil a year...
...I'd make Bundy-kabobs out of you and your father.
Family babes.
How's it going?
Al, that suit must have cost a fortune.
Hey, nothing's too good for me.
Peg, I'm telling you, I'm a changed man.
You're looking at a whole new Al Bundy.
Did you get Kelly's contracts all finalized?
Well, just a couple sticky points to iron out.
Tomorrow I'm bringing out the big guns.
Gonna get me one of them high-class Sears lawyers.
I quit my job too.
Yeah, they begged me to stay, but I laughed in their faces.
I told them, "Hey! If I need an extra 5 bucks a week...
...I'll get it from my little girl."
Aw, gee, honey.
Who would have thought that big 30 seconds...
...you spent 17 years ago would pay off like this?
And you said it wasn't any good!
Well, I'm getting all A's in school.
My teacher said if I keep it up, I could make school Valedictorian.
Yeah. That and 25 cents will buy you a bag of chips.
Well, time to watch our little meal ticket do the weather.
I'm nervous, Al.
Chill out, babe. All she has to do is read it off the TelePrompTer.
And now, our Action News Weather...
...with meteorologist weather bunny, Kelly Bundy.
Hello, everyone.
Hi, Daddy. I like my car.
By the way, Jim here is too modest to tell you...
...but he won the big office pool...
...on how many people died in that train wreck in Peru.
Way to go, Jim.
Anyway, on to the weather.
“There is a...
...strum coming to...
You know, that reading tutor is really paying off.
...to chick ago."
Chicago!
There's a strum coming to us?
- What's a "strom"? -Storm!
Why don't they just put peanut butter on her gums like they did with Mr. Ed?
"Winds are up to 30 muphs."
That's "miles per hour," you idiot!
Hey, I'm not an idiot.
I happen to be a meterlalalogist.
Dork.
Anyway, "Strum clods are forming- ♪
Clouds! Strom clouds!
Never mind. Somebody get her off.
I'm ripping up her contract. She's gone.
All A's, huh?
I know what you're thinking, Al.
If only you'd let Kelly sign her contract when she wanted to...
...we'd be rich.
Or are you thinking:
"You know, if I had the brain of a goldfish, I could get a better job"?
I guess I ought to get my old job back, huh?
Well, I don't know, Dad. You might be a little rusty.
Are you sure you can still do this?
I love you guys.
What a disaster, huh?
The real killer was the Porsche.
How bad could the depreciation be? She drove it four miles.
That can only be what, about 8, $10,000?
Hello.
It's Kelly on her car phone, Dad.
Kelly?
Yes, we still love you.
Yes, I'm glad you like your car.
Of course you can keep it after this.
She is an idiot.
Kelly, be very, very careful.
Drive very carefully.
Yes, we still love you. Be very, very careful.
Thank God, she's just right down the street.
Here she comes.
Easy, Kelly.
Thank God. She's in the garage.
Peg, if anything happened to that Porsche, my life would be--
Hello? It's Kelly on her car phone, Dad.
Tell her "hi" for me.
So, what's up?
Dad mad?
No. He's just a little concerned for your safety.
Come on in.
