WHAT ARE YOU DOING? THAT LINE IS NOT IN THE SCRIPT. WHY DID YOU ADD IT?
- I THOUGHT I SHOULD COMMENT ON THE SITUATION. - WHAT SITUATION?
THE FACT THAT PUDGIE THE PARROT HAS A CIGARETTE SHOVED INTO HIS MOUTH IS MORALLY IRRESPONSIBLE.
THIS IS A CARTOON. THIS IS NOT A FRIGGIN' OPRAH WINFREY SPECIAL.
LOU, MILLIONS OF KIDS SEE THIS CARTOON.
IT'S LIKE SENDING EACH ONE OF THEM A PACKET OF CIGARETTES AND SAYING, "LIGHT UP."
YOU CAN'T PUT WORDS IN PUDGIE'S MOUTH IF HIS MOUTH ISN'T MOVING.
IT'S VOICE-OVER. IT'S AN INTERIOR MONOLOGUE.
MAYBE EVEN THE VOICE OF GOD. THAT'S EVEN BETTER.
[ Low Voice ] DON'T, PUDGIE. DON'T SMOKE.
- ACTORS. - WHAT? WELL, LET'S ASK THE TECHNICIANS.
DO YOU THINK IT'S MORALLY RIGHT TO PROMOTE SMOKING TO THE YOUTH OF AMERICA?

I JUST GOT OFF THE PHONE WITH A STUART DUNMEYER.
STUART DUNMEYER? MM-HMM.

I BRING HOME A BIRTHDAY CAKE AND A FEW GIFTS.
YOU BRING HOME THE GODDAMN SAN DIEGO ZOO, AND I HAVE TO CLEAN UP AFTER IT.
I'M SORRY, BUT IT'S NOT TOXIC WASTE. JUST A FEW PARTY PLATES.
WHY AM I THE ONLY ONE THAT FEELS THERE HAS TO BE RULES?
WHY DO YOU ALWAYS MAKE ME OUT TO BE THE HEAVY?
I DON'T MAKE YOU OUT TO BE ANYTHING. YOU DO IT YOURSELF QUITE NATURALLY.
YOU SET ME UP EVERY TIME. I DON'T SET YOU--
LIGHTEN UP, WILL YOU? JUST REALIZE YOU'RE SPENDING...
TOO MUCH TIME WITH THOSE CORPORATE CLONES YOU USED TO DESPISE.
I SPEND TOO MUCH TIME WITH YOU, DANIEL. IT'S OVER!
IT'S OVER. [ Sighs ]
COME ON. LISTEN. WE'VE GOT PROBLEMS, BUT WHO DOESN'T?
WE CAN WORK THEM OUT. WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT, "IT'S OVER"?
- WE'VE BEEN TRYING TO WORK THEM OUT FOR 14 YEARS. - COME ON. PLEASE.
LISTEN, MAYBE WE NEED SOME HELP, OKAY?
MAYBE WE CAN GO TO A FAMILY THERAPIST. THEY'LL HELP US DO THIS TOGETHER.
IT'S TOO LATE FOR THAT.
WELL, LET'S TAKE A VACATION TOGETHER WITH THE KIDS, AS A FAMILY.
GET YOU AWAY FROM WORK, YOU'RE A DIFFERENT PERSON. YOU REALLY ARE. YOU'RE GREAT.

HEY, LISTEN. YOU KNOW YOU CAN ALWAYS STAY WITH US JUST AS LONG AS YOU WANT.
THANK YOU.
BUT I'M OKAY, REALLY. I MEAN, THIS IS--
THIS IS JUST A TEMPORARY THING. I KNOW MIRANDA.
IT'S GONNA BLOW OVER.
MR. AND MRS. HILLARD,
ALTHOUGH THESE CUSTODY PROCEEDINGS...
HAVE ALWAYS TENDED TO FAVOR THE MOTHER,
WE ALSO REALIZE PERHAPS NOW MORE THAN EVER...
THAT IT IS NOT IN A CHILD'S BEST INTEREST...
TO DEPRIVE HIM OR HER OF AN OBVIOUSLY LOVING FATHER.
HOWEVER, SINCE AT THE PRESENT TIME,
MR. HILLARD HAS NO PLACE TO LIVE AND NO EMPLOYMENT,
IT IS THE COURT'S RULING TO AWARD SOLE CUSTODY TO MRS. HILLARD.
- CONGRATULATIONS. - NO.
[ Judge ] MR. HILLARD WILL HAVE VISITATION RIGHTS EVERY SATURDAY.
CAN'T YOU DO SOMETHING? HE'S ALREADY MADE HIS DECISION.
ISN'T IT TRADITIONAL TO SAY SOMETHING LIKE, "I OBJECT"?
YOUR HONOR, PLEASE.
I MEAN, EVERY SATURDAY. THAT'S ONE DAY A WEEK.
THAT'S NOT ENOUGH.
I HAVE TO BE WITH MY CHILDREN.
IT'S NOT A QUESTION, REALLY. I MEAN, I HAVE TO BE WITH THEM, SIR, PLEASE.
I KNOW IT SEEMS LIKE A LOT, BUT FOR ME, IT'S NOT ENOUGH, REALLY.
I HAVEN'T BEEN AWAY FROM THEM FOR MORE THAN ONE DAY SINCE THE DAY THEY WERE BORN.
MR. HILLARD, I WOULD LIKE TO ADD THAT THIS RULING IS ONLY TEMPORARY.
OH, GOOD. I WILL ASSIGN A COURT LIAISON...
TO OVERSEE YOUR CASE,
AND THERE WILL BE A CONTINUANCE OF THESE PROCEEDINGS IN 90 DAYS.
- I'M GIVING YOU THREE MONTHS, MR. HILLARD. - THANK YOU.
THREE MONTHS IN WHICH TO GET A JOB, KEEP IT,
AND CREATE A SUITABLE HOME.
IF THIS PROVES TO BE A POSSIBILITY FOR YOU,
I WILL CONSIDER A JOINT-CUSTODY ARRANGEMENT WHEN WE RECONVENE.
WE'RE ADJOURNED. [ Gavel Pounds ]
IT LOOKS LIKE THERE'S A LITTLE LIGHT AT THE END OF OUR TUNNEL, EH?
THAT'S ALL MY STUFF.
THIS IS ALL MY FAULT.
GOD, NO. WHY WOULD YOU THINK THAT?
I SHOULD'VE NEVER HAD A BIRTHDAY, DAD.
THIS NEVER WOULD'VE HAPPENED. YES, IT WOULD.
IT WAS AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN.
OKAY? YOU DID NOTHING WRONG.
YOU GOT THAT?
GIVE ME FIVE.
HEY. [ Chuckling ]
YOU'RE THE MAN OF THE HOUSE NOW.
DON'T BE MESSY, OKAY?
YOU CAN'T GO NOW. HONEY, I HAVE TO.
WE'RE IN THE MIDDLE OF CHARLOTTE'S WEB.
WHO'S GONNA FINISH IT?
WELL, GRANDMA WILL FINISH IT FOR YOU.
[ Whispering ] SHE'S NOT AS GOOD.
SHE ALWAYS SKIPS PARTS, AND SHE NEVER DOES THE VOICES.
SHE SMELLS FUNNY TOO.
THAT'S THE FORMALDEHYDE. THAT'S WHY GRANNY'S SO WELL PRESERVED.
MM-HMM. HEY, COME HERE.
[ Chuckles ] HEY.
IT'S THE SAME AS ALWAYS. YOU JUST HAVE A REALLY BIG BACKYARD.
OKAY? I LOVE YOU.
OKAY. I'LL MISS YOU.
SATURDAY COMES REAL QUICK.
I'LL MISS YOU.
DITTO.
OH, DAD.
TAKE CARE OF HER. ALL RIGHT.
BYE-BYE. HEY.
[ Chuckling ]
THANKS FOR THE TIME, WARDEN. BYE.
BYE, DAD.
AS YOUR COURT LIAISON, I WILL BE LOOKING AT TWO THINGS--
YOUR LIVING ENVIRONMENT--
IT'S MORE LIKE A HABITAT, REALLY.
AND I WILL BE COMING BY...
ON MONDAY AND FRIDAY EVENINGS TO INSPECT IT.
[ Southern Accent ] WELL, I'LL PUT ON A CHICKEN.
AND OF COURSE, THERE'S ALWAYS THE JOB ISSUE.
THIS IS THE NEAREST EMPLOYMENT OFFICE.
I'VE TAKEN THE LIBERTY OF MAKING AN APPOINTMENT FOR YOU. THANK YOU.
OH, BY THE WAY, DO YOU HAVE ANY SPECIAL SKILLS?
OH, YES. I DO.
I DO VOICES.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN, YOU DO VOICES?
[ German Accent ] WELL, I DO VOICES. YES!

I DO A GREAT IMPRESSION OF A HOT DOG.
[ Chuckling ] MR. HILLARD, DO YOU CONSIDER YOURSELF HUMOROUS?
I USED TO.
THERE WAS A TIME WHEN I FOUND MYSELF FUNNY,
BUT TODAY YOU HAVE PROVEN ME WRONG.
THANK YOU.
I-- LISTEN, BOTTOM LINE,
I NEED TO BE WITH MY CHILDREN,
AND I'LL DO ANYTHING TO DO THAT.
YOU JUST TELL ME WHAT TO DO.
[ Bell Rings ]
EXCUSE ME.
YEAH? THAT'S ME. ARE YOU TONY?
HI. I'M DANIEL HILLARD, THE ACTOR.
FOLLOW ME.
[ Bell Rings ] OH, FILMS.

NOT EXACTLY. WHAT DO I DO?
YOU TAKE ALL THESE CANS, YOU BOX THEM, AND YOU SHIP THEM.
THEN YOU BOX THOSE CANS OVER THERE. YOU SHIP THEM.
THEN MORE OF THEM WILL COME IN. YOU BOX THOSE, YOU SHIP THOSE.
ANY QUESTIONS?
AFTER YOU BOX 'EM--
YOU SHIP 'EM.
LOTS OF LUCK, SMART-ASS.
I THINK I MADE A FRIEND.
THIS WAY. MIRANDA.
STU!
[ Clears Throat ]
HELLO, MIRANDA.
IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME.
YES.
YEAH.
UM, MR. DUNMEYER'S COME BY TO LOOK OVER YOUR SKETCHES.
UM--
LET ME SHOW YOU TO THE CONFERENCE ROOM.
AS YOU PROBABLY KNOW, THE ESTATE WAS BUILT IN 1876.
THESE SKETCHES ARE MEANT TO REFLECT YOUR DESIRE TO HAVE IT COMPLETELY RESTORED.
YOU LOOK BETTER THAN EVER.
THE LOBBY WILL RESEMBLE A MUSIC SALON...
WITH A GREAT DEAL OF INSPIRATION FROM THE FRENCH SECOND EMPIRE.
I WAS THINKING A 17th CENTURY GRAND PIANO--
YOU REALIZE I'VE BEEN FOLLOWING YOUR CAREER IN THE TRADES THESE PAST COUPLE OF YEARS.
A TUFTED SOFA, A FLEMISH TAPESTRY,
A BRASS-BOUND REGENCY-STYLE TABLE--
I'D LOVE TO GET REACQUAINTED,
CATCH UP.
MANTEL CLOCKS,
FRINGED UPHOLSTERED CHAIRS, DRAPES-- HEAVY DRAPES.

OH, STUART, THANK YOU.
I-- I--
I-- I'M AT THE BEGINNING OF A DIVORCE.
IT JUST DIDN'T WORK OUT.
OH, MIRANDA, I'M SORRY.
- YOU DON'T HAVE TO SAY THAT. - NO, REALLY.
I MEAN, I NEVER HELD ANY GRUDGES OR ANYTHING. I JUST--
WELL, I ALWAYS HOPED YOU'D FIND HAPPINESS.
OH, GOD, THAT'S SO NICE.
I WAS WORRIED ABOUT COMING IN HERE. I THOUGHT I MIGHT SCARE YOU OFF THE PROJECT.
OH, NO, NO, NO, OF COURSE NOT.
I-- I'M A PROFESSIONAL.
I-- I-- I WAS FLATTERED THAT YOU THOUGHT OF ME...
AFTER ALL THESE YEARS AND EVERYTHING.
EVERYTHING. WELL,
ANCIENT HISTORY.

IT'S GOOD TO SEE YOU AGAIN.
[ People Shouting ]
[ Daniel ] MMM, GOOD, HUH?
I KNOW THE PLACE DOESN'T LOOK LIKE MUCH NOW, BUT... IT'LL BE OKAY.
HOW DO YOU LIKE IT? NICE.
IT'S OKAY. DETESTABLE.
HEY, JUST GIVE ME SOME TIME.
I'M NOT TOO COMFORTABLE WITH THIS NEW LIFESTYLE.
- NEITHER ARE WE. - I KNOW IT'S HARD, SWEETIE.
CAN'T YOU JUST TELL MOM YOU'RE SORRY?
WISH I COULD.
YOU KNOW, GROWN-UP PROBLEMS,
THEY'RE A LITTLE MORE COMPLICATED, NATTIE.
HOW IS THE OLD BATTLE-AX? [ Chuckles ]
YOUR MOM.
SHE'S FINE. OH.
I'M GLAD TO HEAR THAT.
I'D HATE TO THINK THAT SHE CAME DOWN WITH AMEBIC DYSENTERY OR... PILES.
WHAT'S AMEBIC DYSENTERY?
IT'S SOME KIND OF INFECTION IN YOUR TUMMY WHERE YOU GET DIARRHEA FOREVER.
- DIARRHEA FOREVER? - THAT'S ENOUGH.
- YOUR BODY DRIES UP, AND YOU DIE. - YOU DIE?
- YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE SO GRAPHIC WITH HER. - I READ IT IN A SCIENCE BOOK.
WHY WOULD YOU WANT MOMMY TO DIE?
OH, HONEY, I DON'T WANT MOMMY TO DIE.
THEN WHY DID YOU SAY THAT?
LOOK, DAD, YOU'RE NOT TRYING VERY HARD.
WE ONLY GET TO COME HERE ONCE A WEEK. THAT'S NOT VERY MUCH.
YOU'RE RIGHT. I'M SORRY.
I'LL TRY HARDER.
NATTIE, I'LL THINK GOOD THOUGHTS, OKAY?
ABOUT MOMMY?
I'LL TRY. I REALLY WILL.
- THEN CALL HER A PRINCESS. - OH. OH, YES.
YEAH. AND RIGHT NOW I FEEL LIKE A TOAD.
LIKE, BLECH.
- [ Both Laughing ] - DADDY'S A TOAD.
[ Horn Honks ]
THAT'S MOM. NO, THAT'S NOT.
- CAN'T BE. SHE'S AN HOUR EARLY. - COME ON, NATTIE. WE GOTTA GO.

SIT DOWN. SIT DOWN!
YOU DON'T HAVE TO RUN OFF WHEN SHE HONKS THE HORN.
COME ON. YOU'RE ON MY TIME NOW.
YOU'RE MY GODDAMN KIDS TOO!
COME ON. HEY.

DANIEL, I'M REALLY SORRY, BUT I DON'T HAVE TIME FOR THIS.
ALL RIGHT? I HAVE TO GO TO THE BANK AND THE MARKET.
- I HAVE TO DROP SOMETHING OFF AT THE NEWSPAPER OFFICE. - NEWSPAPER?
ARE YOU TAKING OUT ONE OF THOSE PERSONAL ADS?
"D.W.F. SEEKS W.W.M. WITH BMW, INTO LIGHT B&D."
I'M PLACING AN AD FOR A HOUSEKEEPER.
A HOUSEKEEPER? WHY DO YOU NEED A HOUSEKEEPER?
I NEED SOMEONE TO BE THERE WHEN THE CHILDREN GET HOME FROM SCHOOL,
TO CLEAN, POSSIBLY START DINNER.
-HOW MUCH ARE YOU GONNA PAY THIS PERSON? -$300 A WEEK. IS THAT ALL RIGHT?
THREE HUN--
MAY I SEE THE AD?
[ Scoffs ] MIRANDA, JUST LET ME LOOK AT THE AD.

WHAT'S THE CHANGE?
YOU GUYS ALL RIGHT? YEAH, MOMMY, WE'RE FINE.
- [ Sniffs, Groans ] - HEY, MIRANDA.
WHY DON'T YOU LET ME TAKE CARE OF THE KIDS?
I'LL PICK THEM UP AFTER SCHOOL. THEY CAN BE WITH ME FOR A COUPLE OF HOURS.
THEN I'LL DROP THEM OFF AT YOUR HOUSE AFTER WORK.
- OH, MOM, THAT'D BE GREAT. - LOOK, THE KIDS LOVE IT.
[ Nattie ] PLEASE! PLEASE! I'LL THINK ABOUT IT.
WE'RE HIS GODDAMN KIDS TOO.
KIDS SAY THE DARNEDEST THINGS.
[ Chuckles ] THANK YOU.
ANY OTHER CHOICE PHRASES YOU'D LIKE TO TEACH OUR 5-YEAR-OLD, DANIEL?
OH! COME ON. EVERYBODY GET THEIR COATS. COME ON.
PUT THEM ON, AND LET'S GET OUT OF HERE.
[ Lydia ] OKAY, MOM. I WOULD SAY GO TO THE BATHROOM BEFORE WE GO,
BUT I DON'T THINK THAT'S A GOOD IDEA.
ALL RIGHT. I HOPE YOU DIDN'T EAT MUCH OF THAT.
DON'T FORGET ANYTHING. I DON'T WANT TO COME BACK. ALL RIGHT.
COME ON. LET'S GO.
SEE YOU SATURDAY. SAY GOOD-BYE TO YOUR FATHER.
BYE-BYE. BYE, DAD.
THERE'S YOUR AD. HAVE TO GET MY PURSE.

[ Feminine Voice, English Accent ] HELLO.
I'M CALLING IN REGARDS TO THE AD I READ IN THE PAPER.
YES. WOULD YOU TELL ME A LITTLE BIT ABOUT YOURSELF?
OH, CERTAINLY, DEAR.
FOR THE PAST 15 YEARS, I HAVE WORKED FOR THE SMYTHE FAMILY OF ELBOURNE, ENGLAND.
THAT'S "SMYTHE," NOT "SMITH," DEAR.
AND FOR THEM, I DID HOUSECLEANING, COOKING...
AND TOOK CARE OF THEIR FOUR GLORIOUS CHILDREN.
I GREW QUITE ATTACHED TO THEM AFTER 15 YEARS,
BUT THEY GREW UP, AS CHILDREN TEND TO DO.
BUT LISTEN TO ME. I'M GOING ON...
WHEN YOU SHOULD BE TELLING ME ABOUT YOUR LITTLE ONES.
WELL, I HAVE TWO GIRLS--
OH, TWO PRECIOUS GEMS. NO DOUBT, THE JEWEL OF YOUR EYE.
- AND ONE BOY. - OH, THE LITTLE PRINCE. HOW WONDERFUL.
I MUST TELL YOU, THERE WOULD BE A LITTLE LIGHT COOKING REQUIRED.
I DON'T MIND THAT, DEAR. I'D LOVE SOME HEAVY COOKING, BUT I DO HAVE ONE RULE--
THEY'LL ONLY EAT GOOD, NUTRITIOUS FOOD WITH ME.
IF THERE'S ANY DISPUTE ABOUT THAT,
IT'S EITHER GOOD, WHOLESOME FOOD OR EMPTY TUMMIES.
THAT'S MY RULE. I HOPE IT'S NOT TOO HARSH FOR YOU, DEAR.
NO. UM--
WOULD YOU MIND COMING ON AN INTERVIEW, SAY, MONDAY NIGHT AT 7:30?

HONEY, I'M SO HAPPY!
OH, COME IN. I KNEW YOU'D UNDERSTAND.
IS THIS GONNA HURT? DON'T WHINE. JUST RELAX.
ARE YOU SURE? JUST REMEMBER-- PAIN IS BEAUTY.
HERE WE GO. TAKE A DEEP BREATH. INSTANT EYE LIFT.
WOW.
YOU'LL NEVER SEE THE STRINGS. THEY'LL BE UNDER THE WIG.
THE MAN HAS 5:00 SHADOW AT 8:30 A.M., AND YOU'RE WORRIED ABOUT STRINGS?
ALL RIGHT. WE'LL START WITH MAKEUP.
- I'M NOT GONNA WAX. - DON'T WORRY.
- WE'LL JUST LIGHTLY SPACKLE. - I FEEL LIKE GLORIA SWANSON.
- YOU LOOK LIKE HER MOTHER. - I'M READY FOR MY CLOSE-UP, MR. DeMille.
OKAY, EVERYONE.
LET'S PRAY.
[ Spanish Accent ] I HOPE YOU ARE USING JUNGLE RED,
BECAUSE THAT IS THE ONLY COLOR I LOVE. MATCHES YOUR LIPS.
GOD BLESS YOU. I'M FEELIN' FABULOUS BECAUSE I MET THIS BEAUTIFUL CUBAN.
EVERY NIGHT IS LIKE THE BAY OF PIGS. MMM!
I CAN'T LIE TO YOU. IT'S BEAUTIFUL WITH HIM. MM-HMM.
I DON'T KNOW. THIS WILL SCARE THE CHILDREN. YOU THINK SO?
I DON'T KNOW. MAYBE THIS IS TOO MUCH FOR THEM.
I THINK WE HAVE TO GO TO THE NEXT LEVEL-- LATEX.
[ Jewish Accent ] OY, IT WAS SUCH A SHANDE.
I SHOULD NEVER BUY GRIBENES FROM A MOHEL.
IT'S SO CHEWY.
NO, I FEEL LIKE BUBBE. THIS IS NOT WORKING.
THIS ISN'T WORKING, BUT DON'T WORRY.
IT'S A WORK IN PROGRESS, AND YOU'RE MY BROTHER.
I'LL NEVER LET YOU BE EMBARRASSED. GOD BLESS YOU.
I THINK WE'RE GONNA HAVE TO DO THE ENTIRE FACE.
BUT LOOKIT. IT'S NICE THING THOUGH WE HAVE HERE.

EVERYBODY OVER HERE. I WANT YOU TO MEET THIS LADY WITH ME.
I WANT YOU TO BE POLITE TO HER, THEN TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK.
EVERYBODY STAND OVER HERE AND HELP ME DECIDE WHAT TO DO.
HELLO. MRS. HILLARD, I PRESUME?
YES. I'M MIRANDA HILLARD.
EUPHEGENIA DOUBTFIRE. OH.
YES. WON'T YOU PLEASE COME IN?
THANK YOU, DEAR.
AND THESE MUST BE THE CHERUBS.
YES. THIS IS NATALIE.
OH, HELLO, NATALIE.
ARE YOU WEARING BUG SPRAY? [ Chuckles ]
NATTIE! IT'S QUITE ALL RIGHT. NO OFFENSE TAKEN.
I WAS A LITTLE LIBERAL WITH THE ATOMIZER.
AND AT MY AGE, IT'S LIKE A GOOD STILTON.
EVERYTHING DOES HAVE ITS OLD AROMA. [ Chuckles ]
I ADMIRE THAT HONESTY, NATTIE.
THAT'S A NOBLE QUALITY. NEVER LOSE THAT.
BECAUSE IT OFTEN DISAPPEARS WITH AGE OR ENTERING POLITICS.
LOOK AT THAT FACE. YOU REMIND ME OF STUART LITTLE,
ONE OF THE MOST HONORABLE CREATURES IN ALL OF LITERATURE.
-DO YOU KNOW THAT BOOK, STUART LITTLE? -YEAH. IT'S ONE OF MY FAVORITES.
OH! MINE TOO. MAYBE I COULD READ IT TO YOU.
- IF I GET THE POSITION. - THAT WOULD BE WONDERFUL.
- WHO IS THIS STRAPPING YOUNG LAD? - THIS IS CHRIS.
- HELLO, CHRISTOPHER. - HELLO.
GEEZ, YOU'RE BIG FOR A LADY.
YOU COULD PLAY FOR THE 49ers.
WELL, I WAS A FULLBACK, BUT THAT'S EUROPEAN FOOTBALL.
- SOCCER? - YES. YOU PLAY SOCCER TOO?
YEAH. OH, ISN'T THAT AMAZING?
I WAS CAPTAIN OF THE WOMEN'S TEAM.
WE WON THREE UNIVERSITY CHAMPIONSHIPS.
OH, BUT THAT WAS DECADES AGO.
BUT I WAS MORE DISCIPLINED BACK THEN.
I ALWAYS PUT MY STUDIES AHEAD OF MY ATHLETICS. I'M SURE YOU'RE THE SAME WAY.
I'M SURE YOU'VE GOT ALL YOUR HOMEWORK DONE ALREADY.
- WELL, NOT EXACTLY. - REALLY? OH, THAT'S A PITY.
BECAUSE YOUNG MEN WHO DON'T DO THEIR STUDIES...
OFTEN ALWAYS MISS OUT ON MORE AMUSING ACTIVITIES.
AND WHO'S THIS YOUNG LADY? [ Miranda ] THIS IS LYDIA.
HELLO, LYDIA.
THIS ISN'T FAIR, MOM. WHY DO WE NEED A HOUSEKEEPER ANYWAY?
OH, THIS IS ALL I NEED RIGHT NOW.
WHY CAN'T DAD DO IT? EXCUSE ME, DEAR.
I DON'T THINK IT'S APPROPRIATE TO ARGUE WITH YOUR MOTHER IN FRONT OF A PERFECT STRANGER,
IF YOU DON'T MIND MY SAYING SO.
I JUST DON'T SEE WHY WE CAN'T SPEND THE EXTRA TIME WITH DAD.
MAYBE SHE'S RIGHT, DEAR. MAYBE THEIR FATHER WOULD BE A MORE APPROPRIATE PERSON.
NO, I DON'T THINK SO. REALLY?
IT'S NOT MY FAULT, HONEY. IF HE WOULD GET A JOB AND A DECENT APARTMENT--
YOU SEE, HE'S THE KIND-- EXCUSE ME, DEAR.
I'M SURE YOU NORMALLY WOULD ENCOURAGE THE CHILDREN TO STEP OUT OF THE ROOM...
BEFORE YOU VERBALLY BASH THEIR FATHER, HMM?
WELL, IF I DID THAT, I MIGHT NEVER SEE THEM AGAIN.
I'M SORRY. THAT'S ALL RIGHT.
YOU'RE RIGHT. YOU'RE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT. NO HARM DONE.
I'M NOT A THERAPIST. I JUST SEE WHAT I SEE. YES.
WHY DON'T YOU GUYS GO ON UPSTAIRS? I'LL BE UP IN A MINUTE.
- IT'S LOVELY TO MEET YOU. - [ Chris ] YEAH. NICE TO MEET YOU.
YOU, TOO, LYDIE.
OH, THEY'RE A SPIRITED BUNCH. YES.
ESPECIALLY THAT LYDIE. SHE'S GOT DAGGERS FOR YOU. I KNOW.
THEY'RE VERY UPSET WITH ME RIGHT NOW. PROBABLY THE DIVORCE.
HOW DID YOU KNOW?
WELL, YOU CAN SENSE IT, DEAR, THE WAY SHE TALKS ABOUT HER FATHER. REALLY?
I DON'T THINK HE'S IN THE NAVY, THE WAY SHE'S SAYING SHE MISSES HIM.
IT'S LIKE SHE WANTS HIM HERE. LIKE HE'S NEARBY. I KNOW.
YES. THAT'S SO SAD--
WOULD YOU CARE TO HAVE A CUP OF TEA? I'D LOVE THAT.
IT'S RIGHT IN HERE. OH, REALLY? WHAT A LOVELY HOME YOU HAVE.
DID YOU DECORATE THIS YOURSELF? YES, I DID.
OH, IT REEKS OF TASTE. ISN'T THIS LOVELY, DEAR.
THANK YOU. HERE'S MY RÉSUME.
OH, THANK YOU. LET ME START THIS TEA.
OH, NO, DEAR. LET ME GET THAT FOR YOU.
YOU'VE HAD A HARD DAY. YOU JUST SET YOURSELF DOWN ON THAT STOOL...
AND LEAVE THE TEA TO ME. [ Chuckles ]
THANK YOU. THAT'S VERY NICE OF YOU.
OH, NOT AT ALL, DEAR.
OH, WHAT A WONDERFUL RÉSUME. THANK YOU, DEAR.

WHEN YOU'VE GOT LITTLE ONES RUNNING AROUND, 'CAUSE THEY'LL SWALLOW ANYTHING.
YOU'VE GOT TO BE READY TO POP IT OUT. HMM?
OH, LET'S SEE.
OH! WHAT A PERFECTLY APPOINTED LITTLE CUBBY.
LOOK AT THIS. EVERYTHING HAS ITS PLACE AND NAME TAG.
HOW PRECISE. IT'S LOVELY.
MY HUSBAND NEVER APPRECIATED IT.
OH, POOR DOLT.
THAT'S NOT THE REASON YOU DIVORCED HIM, WAS IT?
NO.
THAT'S SO SAD, BECAUSE MARRIAGE CAN BE SUCH A BLESSING.
SO CAN DIVORCE.
OH.
DANIEL IS A... VERY DIFFICULT MAN TO LIVE WITH.
HMM. BUT THE CHILDREN ARE CRAZY ABOUT HIM.
YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE A PSYCHIC TO SENSE THAT. [ Chuckles ]
MY, YOU CERTAINLY DO KNOW YOUR WAY AROUND A KITCHEN.
OH. WELL.
IT'S JUST BECAUSE EVERYTHING'S IS SO ACCESSIBLE. YOU DESIGNED IT.
I'M AMAZED THERE ISN'T A LITTLE LABEL THERE THAT SAYS "SPOONS." [ Chuckles ]
YOU REMIND ME OF SOMEONE.
REALLY? WHO?
I FEEL LIKE I'VE KNOWN YOU FOR YEARS.
WELL, MAYBE WE KNEW EACH OTHER IN ANOTHER LIFE.
[ Chuckling ]
I WOULD LOVE FOR YOU TO COME AND WORK WITH US.
SO WOULD I.

WELL, LET ME GO UPSTAIRS AND GET HIM, AND HE'LL BE RIGHT DOWN.
I'LL COME WITH YOU. YES. NO. WHY?
BECAUSE I HAVE AN APPOINTMENT...
ON MONDAY AND FRIDAY EVENINGS TO CHECK THE APARTMENT.
I REMEMBER HIM SAYING SOMETHING ABOUT THAT.
ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO WALK IN? THAT'S THREE FLOORS, HOOFIN' IT ALL THE WAY.
IF YOU CAN DO IT, I CAN. I'LL BET SO. IS YOUR TICKER ALL RIGHT?
TOP-NOTCH. OH, GOOD, 'CAUSE I DON'T WANT TO JUMP-START YOU.

[ Normal Voice ] I WANT TO KEEP YOU ABREAST OF SOME OF THE CHANGES IN MY CAREER.
THERE'VE BEEN TWO BIG DEVELOPMENTS.
I'M FINALLY STARTING TO COME INTO MY OWN.

[ Screams ] MRS. SELLNER! HOW ARE YOU?
ALWAYS A JOY. IF YOU WANTED SOME CHEESE,
WHY DIDN'T YOU JUST SAY SO? [ Sighs ]
I KNOW YOU'LL BE HAPPY TO KNOW THAT I NOW AM HOLDING DOWN TWO JOBS--
ONE FOR AN EDUCATIONAL FILM AND TV COMPANY--
HEAVY RESPONSIBILITY.
AND THE OTHER? CLEANING HOUSES. NOT MINE.
OH. BIG GIRL. YOUR SISTER IS ENGLISH?
SHE'S HALF ENGLISH, HALF AMERICAN.
HALF SISTER, REALLY, SO THAT MAKES HER ABOUT AN EIGHTH ENGLISH.
I DON'T KNOW. I'VE NEVER REALLY DONE THE MATH.
YOU SEE, MY FATHER WAS AMERICAN.
HE, UH, FLEW FOR THE ENGLISH DURING THE WAR.
HE WAS IN LONDON AND MET THIS LOVELY ENGLISHWOMAN.
WELL, MY SISTER WAS THE FRUIT OF THEIR PASSIONS.
[ Screams ] SORRY.
MY SISTER'S, NOT YOURS. SHE'S NOT A VERY GOOD HOUSEKEEPER,
BUT SHE MAKES A FABULOUS CUP OF ENGLISH TEA.
REALLY? YES.
I WOULD ADORE A GOOD CUP OF ENGLISH TEA.

SHE'S SUPPOSED TO BE OLDER AND VERY UNATTRACTIVE.
REALLY?
MRS. DOUBTFIRE?
YES? DID YOU AND MR. DOUBTFIRE EVER--
YOU MUST'VE HAD YOUR SHARE OF PROBLEMS.
OF COURSE, DEAR. WHAT MARRIAGE DOESN'T?
BUT I ALWAYS SAY THE BAD TIMES FADE AWAY,
AND THE GOOD ONES ADHERE THEMSELVES TO YOUR MEMORY.
YES. EXCUSE ME. OH, IT'S ALL RIGHT.
OH, AS I HOLD THIS COLD MEAT, I'M REMINDED OF WINSTON.
- GOD REST HIS SOUL. - WHEN DID HE PASS ON?
EIGHT YEARS AGO, DEAR, THIS NOVEMBER.
- WHAT HAPPENED? - HE WAS QUITE FOND OF THE DRINK.
AH. IT WAS A DRINK THAT KILLED HIM.
HOW AWFUL. HE WAS AN ALCOHOLIC?
NO. HE WAS HIT BY A GUINNESS TRUCK.
SO, IT WAS QUITE LITERALLY THE DRINK THAT KILLED HIM.
- OH, HOW TRAGIC. - YES.
OH.
OH, BUT HE WAS A GOOD MAN, THOUGH, REALLY.
A SAINTED MAN.
AND DESPITE HIS MOUNTAINS OF FAULTS--
DEAR, I ALWAYS SAY A FLAWED HUSBAND IS BETTER THAN NONE AT ALL.
WHO NEEDS A HUSBAND WHEN I'VE GOT YOU?
OH, SURELY YOU DON'T MEAN THAT, DEAR. WELL--
THAT'S SO SWEET.
YOU CAN'T IMAGINE WHAT IT WAS LIKE BEING MARRIED TO DANIEL.
TELL ME, DEAR, WHAT WAS SO HORRIBLE ABOUT THIS MAN YOU LIVED WITH FOR 14 YEARS?
WELL, AT FIRST, NOTHING.
HE WAS-- HE WAS SO ROMANTIC,
SO PASSIONATE. REALLY?
HE SOUNDS LIKE AN ABSOLUTE STUD, DEAR.
I HOPE YOU DON'T MIND ME BEING A TAD RUDE, BUT HOW WAS HE?
YOU KNOW, ON A SCALE OF ONE TO 10?
OH, WELL, THAT PART WAS ALWAYS... OKAY.
JUST OKAY?
HE'S PROBABLY A CASANOVA COMPARED TO POOR OLD WINSTON.
WHAT WAS THE MATTER WITH WINSTON? OH, DEAR.
WINSTON'S IDEA OF FOREPLAY WAS, "EFFIE, BRACE YOURSELF."
[ Laughs ] OH.
IT WAS DANIEL'S SPONTANEITY AND HIS ENERGY I FELL IN LOVE WITH.
REALLY?
EVERYONE ELSE I KNEW WAS SO ORGANIZED, SO SCHEDULED.
LIKE ME, I GUESS.
DANIEL WAS SO WONDERFULLY DIFFERENT AND FUNNY. HE COULD ALWAYS MAKE ME LAUGH.
THEY ALWAYS SAY THE KEY TO A SOLID MARRIAGE IS LAUGHTER.
BUT AFTER A FEW YEARS, EVERYTHING JUST STOPPED BEING FUNNY.
WHY?
I WAS WORKING ALL THE TIME, AND HE WAS ALWAYS BETWEEN JOBS.
I HARDLY EVER GOT TO SEE THE KIDS, AND ON THE NIGHTS I WOULD TRY TO...
GET HOME EARLY TO BE WITH THEM, SOMETHING WOULD GO WRONG.
THE HOUSE WOULD BE WRECKED, AND I'D HAVE TO CLEAN IT UP.
HE NEVER KNEW, BUT SO MANY NIGHTS, I JUST CRIED MYSELF TO SLEEP.
REALLY?
THE TRUTH IS, I DIDN'T LIKE WHO I WAS WHEN I WAS WITH HIM.
I WOULD TURN INTO THIS HORRIBLE PERSON.
I DIDN'T WANT MY KIDS GROWING UP WITH A MOTHER LIKE THAT.
WHEN I'M NOT WITH DANIEL, I'M BETTER.
AND I'M SURE HE'S BETTER WHEN HE'S NOT WITH ME.
WELL, YOU NEVER--
I MEAN, DID YOU EVER SAY ANYTHING TO HIM, DEAR?
DANIEL NEVER LIKED TO TALK ABOUT ANYTHING SERIOUS.
I-- I USED TO THINK DANIEL COULD DO ANYTHING,
EXCEPT BE SERIOUS.
BUT, THEN, I WAS SERIOUS ENOUGH FOR EVERYBODY.
[ Bell Clanging ]
- OH. - [ Natalie ] THIS IS GREAT!
ISN'T THIS POSH! [ Chris ] AMAZING.
I'LL BET IT'S VERY EXCLUSIVE. PROBABLY NEED A CREDIT REFERENCE JUST TO GET IN THE POOL.

WOW, IT'S AMAZING. STUNNING.
[ Grunts ]
OH, HELLO. YOU LOOK LOVELY. HI.

OH, NATTIE. NOT EVERYONE HAS THEIR OWN PERSONAL TRAINER.
[ Laughs ] WELL, GUYS, YOU GOT YOUR SWIMSUITS?
- YOU WANNA GO FOR A DIP? - THAT'D BE GREAT.
- GOOD. HOW ABOUT YOU, MRS. DOUBTFIRE? - OH, YOU WICKED, WICKED MAN.
ISN'T THERE ENOUGH FLESH HERE FOR YOU TO FEAST YOUR EYES ON?
COME NOW, MRS. DOUBTFIRE, DON'T BE BASHFUL.
OH, NO, DEAR. I THINK THEY'VE OUTLAWED WHALING.
WE'D BE RE-ENACTING THE TITANIC.
- COME ON, MRS. DOUBTFIRE. - OH, NO. JUST GO, LEAVE ME HERE.
I'LL JUST SIT HERE IN THE SUN AND CRISP.
I DON'T THINK YOU CAN GET HEATSTROKE TWICE IN THE SAME YEAR.
OKAY. WELL, LET'S GO, KIDS. SWIM TIME.
GO, GO, DEAR. I'LL BE FINE. COME ON. COME ON.
THE DAY'S ON ME. ANYTHING YOU NEED, JUST PUT IT ON MY TAB.
THANK YOU, DEAR. [ Under Breath ] TOUCH ME AGAIN, I'LL DROWN YOU, YOU BASTARD.
I'LL JUST SIT HERE AND WATCH YOU MOVE IN ON MY FAMILY.
HELLO, HELLO.
AND HOW ARE YOU? GOOD.
OH, GOD, WHAT AM I DOING HERE? THIS IS BEYOND OBSESSION. OH, GOD.

WON'T HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH KIDS? YOU WON'T DATE A WOMAN WHO'S GOT KIDS.
PEOPLE CHANGE, RON. I'M PUSHING 40.
I DON'T WANT TO SPEND THE REST OF MY LIFE BY MYSELF.
SHE'S GOT AN AWFUL LOT OF BAGGAGE THOUGH. THREE KIDS?
THREE TERRIFIC KIDS, AND I'M CRAZY ABOUT THEM, ESPECIALLY THAT LITTLE NATALIE.
LOOK AT HER. SHE'S A SWEETIE-PIE.
GOD KNOWS THEY NEED SOME KIND OF STABLE FATHER FIGURE IN THEIR LIFE RIGHT NOW.
THANKS, TODD. WHAT ABOUT THEIR REAL FATHER?
WHAT CAN I SAY, RON? THE GUY'S A LOSER. I'LL SEE YOU.
LOSER? YOU--
[ Feminine Voice ] OH, SIR. I SAW IT.
SOME ANGRY MEMBER OF THE KITCHEN STAFF. DID YOU NOT TIP THEM?
OH, THE TERRORISTS. THEY RAN THAT WAY.
IT WAS A RUN-BY FRUITING.
I'LL GET THEM, SIR. DON'T WORRY.

OH. GOOD WASTE OF JUICE.
[ Normal Voice ] LOSER. [ Laughs ]

VERY IMPRESSIVE, MR. HILLARD.
I DIDN'T KNOW ANYBODY WAS WATCHING. I WAS JUST PLAYING.
I DON'T THINK I-- I WAS WATCHING. THAT'S FUNNY STUFF.
WELL, THANKS. I THINK KIDS WOULD LIKE IT.
THEY'D BE ENTERTAINED, AND THEY'D GET SOME INFORMATION.
WELL, THAT'S KIND OF MY THEORY. I THINK YOU COULD, YOU KNOW,
YOU DON'T HAVE TO PLAY DOWN TO THEM, YOU JUST PLAY TO THEM.
- LISTEN, I'D LIKE TO HEAR SOME MORE OF YOUR IDEAS. - MY IDEAS?
- HOW ABOUT A DINNER MEETING? - OH, OKAY.
NEXT FRIDAY, BRIDGES RESTAURANT. 7:00 SHARP.
I'LL BE THERE.
TAKE FIVE.

WELL, WE'VE JUST HAD OUR FIRST HOME-COOKED MEAL. I'M DOMESTIC NOW, HUH?
[ Chris ] THIS IS REALLY TERRIFIC, DAD. IT'S GREAT.
[ Daniel ] YOU WANT SOME MORE SPAGHETTI? NO, THANKS. I'M STUFFED.
HOW ABOUT GARLIC BREAD? I MADE IT MYSELF.
WELL, I DIDN'T MAKE IT. I COOKED IT, YOU KNOW, SLICED IT.
IT'S OKAY, DAD. THANKS.
THE PLACE LOOKS GREAT. THE FOOD'S TERRIFIC.
I'M REALLY PROUD OF YOU.
YEAH, ME, TOO. ME TOO.
[ Knock On Door ] I'LL BE RIGHT BACK.

GIVE ME A SECOND CHANCE, OKAY? LET ME TAKE THE KIDS AFTER SCHOOL.
I CAN'T GET RID OF MRS. DOUBTFIRE. SHE'S TERRIFIC.

THE KIDS ARE ALL DOING BETTER IN SCHOOL.
CHRIS IS PASSING EVERY SINGLE SUBJECT. HE IS.
I FIND MYSELF GETTING HOME EARLY JUST TO BE WITH THEM.

- TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE. - SHE IS.
I KIND OF LIKE THE BLACK ONE. ME, TOO.
I DON'T KNOW. ACTUALLY-- MRS. DOUBTFIRE.
YES? WE NEED ANOTHER WOMAN'S OPINION.
OH, THEN I'M YOUR WOMAN. WHICH ONE?

OH.
- NEITHER. - NEITHER?
THEY'RE BOTH TOO BRAZEN, DEAR. THEY CRY "HARLOT," REALLY.
THE RED ONE IS TRADITIONAL COLOR FOR STREETWALKERS, DEAR.
THE BLACK ONE IS FAR TOO SHORT. I HOPE YOU WAXED.
THEY BOTH SAY TO ME, "I'M EASY."
YOU DON'T WANT THAT, DEAR. YOU WANT TO BE KILIMANJARO ON YOUR FIRST DATE--
INACCESSIBLE. WHY BUY THE COW WHEN YOU CAN GET THE MILK FOR FREE?
LET'S FIND SOMETHING MORE YOUR OWN AGE, ALL RIGHT?
SOMETHING A LITTLE LESS TAWDRY.
OH, LET'S SEE. HOW ABOUT THIS LOVELY FROCK?
TASTEFUL, ELEGANT, DON'T YOU THINK?
AND OLD. I WORE THAT TO MY AUNT'S FUNERAL IN 1976.
WELL, A CLASSIC NEVER DIES, DEAR.
I THINK IT'S TIME TO REVIVE IT. WE SHOULD ASK THE KIDS.
ALL RIGHT. LET'S DO THAT. WHAT DO YOU THINK?
I'D GO WITH THE SHORT, BLACK ONE.
- YEAH, IT'S THE MOST FUN. - THERE, YOU SEE? I AGREE.
FINE. I'LL GET THE FROCK OUT OF HERE.
YOU ASK MY OPINION, THEN DON'T TAKE IT.
I WILL NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR VIRTUE.
WELL, YOU'LL BE THERE TO PROTECT ME. I WILL?
STU HAS INVITED YOU AND THE CHILDREN TO JOIN US.
HOW LOVELY-- ONE BIG HAPPY FAMILY.
I WOULDN'T MISS THAT FOR THE WORLD. SHOULD BE SMASHING GOOD FUN.

BYE.
SORRY ABOUT THE PEPPER. [ Mumbles ]
YEAH. OKAY. [ Clears Throat ]
WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING AT? SHOW'S OVER.
UH, MISS ROBESON, DO YOU HAVE ANY CLOSING REMARKS?
NOTHING FURTHER, YOUR HONOR.
WELL, MR. HILLARD, SINCE YOU'VE DETERMINED TO ACT AS YOUR OWN ATTORNEY,
YOU ARE ENTITLED TO MAKE A CLOSING STATEMENT AT THIS TIME.
[ Clears Throat ]
YOUR HONOR, IN THE PAST TWO MONTHS, I HAVE SECURED A RESIDENCE.
I'VE REFURBISHED THAT RESIDENCE AND MADE IT AN ENVIRONMENT FIT FOR CHILDREN.
THOSE ARE YOUR WORDS. I'M ALSO HOLDING A JOB AS A SHIPPING CLERK.
SO I BELIEVE I MET YOUR REQUIREMENTS AHEAD OF SCHEDULE.
IN REGARDS TO MY BEHAVIOR, I CAN ONLY PLEAD INSANITY,
BECAUSE EVER SINCE MY CHILDREN WERE BORN,
THE MOMENT I LOOKED AT THEM, I WAS CRAZY ABOUT THEM.
AND ONCE I HELD THEM, I WAS HOOKED.
I'M ADDICTED TO MY CHILDREN, SIR.
I LOVE THEM WITH ALL MY HEART,
AND THE IDEA OF SOMEONE TELLING ME I CAN'T BE WITH THEM, I CAN'T SEE THEM EVERY DAY,
IT'S LIKE SOMEONE SAYING I-I CAN'T HAVE AIR.
I CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT AIR, AND I CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT THEM.
LISTEN, I WOULD DO ANYTHING. I JUST WANT TO BE WITH THEM.
YOU KNOW, I NEED THAT, SIR.
WE HAVE A HISTORY.
AND I JUST-- THEY MEAN EVERYTHING TO ME,
AND THEY NEED ME AS MUCH AS I NEED THEM.
SO PLEASE, DON'T TAKE MY KIDS AWAY FROM ME.
THANK YOU.
MR. HILLARD, YOU'VE BEEN ABLE TO FOOL A LOT OF PEOPLE...
INTO BELIEVING THAT YOU'RE A 60-YEAR-OLD WOMAN.
NO EASY TASK.
AND YOUR LITTLE SPEECH SEEMED TO BE...
VERY HEARTFELT AND GENUINE.
BUT, I BELIEVE IT TO BE...
A TERRIFIC PERFORMANCE BY A VERY GIFTED ACTOR.
NOTHING MORE. NO, IT'S NOT THAT.
THE REALITY, MR. HILLARD,
IS THAT YOUR LIFESTYLE OVER THE PAST MONTHS HAS BEEN VERY UNORTHODOX.
AND I REFUSE TO FURTHER SUBJECT THREE INNOCENT CHILDREN...
TO YOUR PECULIAR AND POTENTIALLY HARMFUL BEHAVIOR.
IT IS THIS COURT'S DECISION TO AWARD FULL CUSTODY TO MRS. HILLARD.
- OH, GOD. NO, SIR. PLEASE. - YOU WILL HAVE SUPERVISED VISITATION EVERY SATURDAY.
- SUPERVISED, SIR? - YES. A COURT LIAISON...
WILL ACCOMPANY YOU WHEN YOU SPEND TIME WITH THE CHILDREN.
I AM SUGGESTING A PERIOD OF PSYCHOLOGICAL TESTING...
AND PERHAPS TREATMENT FOR YOU, MR. HILLARD.
WE WILL REEXAMINE THIS CASE ONE YEAR FROM NOW.
THANK YOU. COURT IS ADJOURNED. [ Gavel Bangs ]
I DON'T DO LAUNDRY. I DON'T DO WINDOWS. I DON'T DO CARPETS.
I DON'T DO BATHTUBS, I DON'T DO TOILETS AND I DON'T DO DIAPERS.
MY CHILDREN HAVE BEEN POTTY-TRAINED FOR SOME TIME.
WELL, I DON'T DO WASHING, I DON'T DO BASEMENTS, I DON'T DO DINNERS,
I DON'T DO READING.
AH. YES.
WELL, WE HAVE YOUR NUMBER. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR COMING.
WE'LL BE GETTING BACK TO YOU. THANK YOU.
I'LL SHOW YOU TO THE DOOR.
- YES. HERE WE ARE. PLEASE. - [ Door Closes ]
LAURA, THAT SHIPMENT HAS BEEN DELAYED THREE TIMES.
YES, BUT-- LAURA, I'M NOT GOING TO WAIT ANOTHER SIX MONTHS FOR IT.
OKAY, I'LL TRY THE NUMBER. YOU DO THAT.
CALL ME BACK.
OH, GUYS, PLEASE DON'T BE SO DEPRESSED.
EVERYTHING'S GONNA BE ALL RIGHT.
- I MISS HER SPAGHETTI. - I MISS HER JOKES.
- I MISS HER STORIES. - DON'T WORRY. WE WILL FIND SOMEONE.
- THERE ARE PLENTY OF PEOPLE OUT THERE. - NOBODY LIKE HER.
ALL RIGHT, I ADMIT, THINGS WERE A LOT NICER WHEN SHE WAS AROUND.
THE HOUSE WAS SO WARM AND COZY, AND...
THE BEDS WERE ALWAYS MADE AND THE DINNER WAS-- SHE ISN'T REAL.
WE HAVE TO STOP REFERRING TO HER AS IF SHE WERE A REAL PERSON.
[ Mrs. Doubtfire ] HELLO, MY DEARS!
WE HAVE A WONDERFUL SHOW TODAY.
WE HAVE MR. VAN ZANDT FROM THE SIERRA CLUB,
AND HE'S GOING TO BRING SOME ANIMALS THAT ARE ENDANGERED SPECIES.
- DO YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS, POPPETS? - WAIT A MINUTE.
DID YOU SAY "PUPPET"? OH, NO, DEAR.
OH, IT'S KOVACS. WELCOME, KOVACS. HI, GUYS.
DID YOU SAY "EXTINCTION"? DID YOU SMELL SOMETHING? SOMETHING STINKS?
I'M NOT TALKING ABOUT SOMETHING SMELLING BAD. I'M TALKING ABOUT EXTINCTION.
THAT MEANS WHEN THERE'S NO MORE OF A PARTICULAR ANIMAL.
OH MY GOSH. DOESN'T THAT MAKE YOU MAD?
- IT MAKES ME VERY MAD. - WELL, TELL PEOPLE ABOUT IT.
I'M MAD. YOU KNOW WHY? BECAUSE NEXT, IT'S THE CHIMPS.
THAT'S RIGHT. THERE ARE FEWER CHIMPS IN THE WORLD THAN THERE USED TO BE.
DOESN'T IT MAKE YOU MAD THAT HUMANS ARE PLAYING YOUR PARTS IN MOVIES?
OOH, CHEETAH, PLANET OF THE APES. RIGHT.
WHO GETS HIS ROLE? RODDY McDOWELL. I'D DO BETTER THAN THAT.
I'D DO BETTER THAN CHARLTON HESTON. YOUR RUG IS BETTER, TOO.
YOU COULD FLY TO PERSIA ON THAT RUG.
- BUT, YOU KNOW, BOYS AND GIRLS, THAT'S ALL-- - WHAT THE-- [ Laughing ]
SHALL WE TELL THEM WHERE WE'RE GOING TOMORROW, KOVACS?
YEAH, YEAH, YEAH. THEY WANT TO KNOW. TOMORROW, POPPETS,
WE'RE TAKING A WONDERFUL TRIP, BUT YOU DON'T HAVE TO PACK YOUR BAGS...
BECAUSE WE'RE GOING IN OUR MIND. THAT'S RIGHT.
WE'RE GOING ACROSS THE ATLANTIC OCEAN TO ENGLAND WHERE I CAME FROM.
YOU CAME FROM ENGLAND, HUH? I DID, DEAR. IT'S A WONDERFUL COUNTRY.
DO YOU KNOW ABOUT ENGLAND? I KNOW IT'S AN ISLAND.
IT'S A ISLAND, DEAR, AND A GLORIOUS ONE...
BECAUSE THEY HAVE A QUEEN AND THEY HAVE A ROYAL FAMILY.
OH, JUST LIKE A POKER GAME. IT'S A FULL HOUSE.
COUPLE OF THE CARDS AREN'T LIVING AT HOME ANYMORE.
NOT ANYMORE, DEAR. THANKS TO MOBILE PHONES.
DO YOU KNOW WHAT LANGUAGE THEY SPEAK IN ENGLAND? PAKISTANI.
OH, THAT'S VERY CORRECT. IN MANY STORES THEY DO,
BUT WE'LL GET INTO THAT TOMORROW, BOYS AND GIRLS.
- YOU OWE ME A KISS, KOVACS. - I'M GOING TO GIVE YOU TWO.
ALL RIGHT, DEAR. HERE'S ONE ON THE CHEEK.
AND HERE'S A MONKEY BITE! [ Screams ]
OH! OH, YOU WICKED, WICKED MONKEY! OH!
WELL, THAT'S ALL FOR TODAY. BYE-BYE.
[ Man ] CUT. THAT'S A WRAP, FOLKS. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
THAT WAS GOOD.
WE'RE A SMASH. NUMBER ONE IN OUR TIME SLOT.
YEAH? YES. CALLS FROM DETROIT,
CLEVELAND, CHICAGO, LOS ANGELES-- OOH.
ALL WITH OFFERS TO SYNDICATE. HOLLYWOOD.
WHOO! DANIEL?
YES? MIRANDA.
COULD I TALK TO YOU?
YEAH. I'LL BE RIGHT OUT. JUST WAIT HERE.
WELCOME TO EUPHEGENIA'S HOUSE.
A LITTLE DRAFTY, BUT, YOU KNOW, IT'S NICE.
WHAT CAN I DO FOR YOU?
WELL, FIRST OF ALL, CONGRATULATIONS ON THE SHOW.
WELL, THANKS. YOU GOT TO SEE THE DRESS REHEARSAL, YOU KNOW.
WE'VE--
THE KIDS-- WE'VE BEEN WATCHING EVERY DAY.
WELL, IT'S NICE TO KNOW THEY CAN SEE ME EVERY DAY.
LOOK, DANIEL, I KNOW IT'S GOING TO TAKE A LONG TIME...
TO GET OVER ALL THE FIGHTS AND ALL THE HORRIBLE THINGS WE SAID TO EACH OTHER.
IT'S, UH-- IT'S SO HARD.
BUT I KNOW SOMEHOW, YOU AND I WILL BE ALL RIGHT. WE'LL GET THROUGH THIS.
BUT THE KIDS-- I-I--
I DON'T WANT TO HURT OUR CHILDREN.
SO WHAT DO YOU WANT ME TO DO?
WANT ME TO PRETEND LIKE EVERYTHING'S ALL RIGHT? PUT ON A HAPPY FACE, SMILE?
JESUS, MIRANDA. YOU TOOK MY CHILDREN AWAY FROM ME.
I CAN ONLY SEE THEM NOW WITH SUPERVISION--
SOME WOMAN WHO COMES AND WATCHES ME WITH THE KIDS, LIKE I'M SOME DEVIATE.
IF I TRY TO HUG THEM, SHE WONDERS WHY. YOU KNOW WHAT THAT'S LIKE?
YOU JUST SAT THERE IN THAT COURTROOM. YOU KNEW THE TRUTH.
YOU DIDN'T SAY A WORD. YOU LET THAT JUDGE PASS THAT DESPICABLE SENTENCE.
I WAS ANGRY. LOOK, YOU HURT ME, TOO.
- YOU RIPPED MY HEART OUT. YOU COME BACK TO DO IT AGAIN? - YOU KNOW WHAT?
WHAT? I DON'T WANT TO DO THIS ANYMORE.
I DON'T WANT TO DO ANY MORE "WHO DID WHAT TO WHOM?"
EVER SINCE THIS HAPPENED, I'VE BEEN TRYING TO MAKE SENSE OUT OF IT,
AND THE ONLY THING I KNOW TO BE TRUE IN MY HEART...
IS THE CHILDREN WERE HAPPIER WHEN MRS. DOUBTFIRE WAS PART OF THEIR LIVES.
OH. YEAH.
SHE-- SHE BROUGHT OUT THE BEST IN THEM.
- SHE BROUGHT OUT THE BEST IN YOU. - AND YOU.
YEAH.
THEY MISS HER TERRIBLY.
WHAT ARE YOU SAYING?
DANIEL, THE KIDS NEED YOU.
I NEED THEM.
WELL, TOMORROW, WE'LL HAVE FRANK, WHO IS A MAKEUP ARTIST--
[ Knock ] OH, A BIG KNOCK AT THE DOOR.
WHO COULD THAT BE, AND DO WE HAVE ENOUGH TIME?
MR. SPRINKLES, BOYS AND GIRLS.
HELLO, MR. SPRINKLES. WHAT DO YOU HAVE FOR ME TODAY?
- MRS. "DOUBTFLYER," I'VE GOT A LETTER FROM KATIE-- - [ Doorbell Rings ]
IT'S THE NEW BABYSITTER.
COME ON, GUYS. GET UP. LET'S GO.
COME ON.
IT'S GONNA BE ALL RIGHT. CHRIS, WAIT RIGHT OVER THERE.
EVERYBODY--
DADDY.
- HI. - WHAT'S GOING ON?
I'M HERE TO PICK YOU UP.
YOUR DAD'S GOING TO TAKE YOU FOR A FEW HOURS EVERY DAY AFTER SCHOOL.
- REALLY? - WHAT ABOUT THE COURTS? THAT LEGAL STUFF?
- ASK YOUR MOM. - I TOOK CARE OF IT.
NO MORE SUPERVISED VISITS. NO MORE COURT LIAISON.
- JUST US? - JUST US.
[ Chuckles ]
GO GET MR. BEAR.
GO GET YOUR STUFF. HURRY UP. ALL RIGHT.
WOULD YOU LIKE TO COME IN? I'LL WAIT OUTSIDE.
OKAY.
THANK YOU.
I'LL SEE YOU.
[ Feminine Voice ] "DEAR MRS. DOUBTFIRE,
"TWO MONTHS AGO, MY MOM AND DAD DECIDED TO SEPARATE.
"NOW THEY LIVE IN DIFFERENT HOUSES.
"MY BROTHER ANDREW SAYS THAT WE AREN'T A REAL FAMILY ANYMORE.
"IS THIS TRUE? DID I LOSE MY FAMILY?
"IS THERE ANYTHING I COULD DO TO GET MY PARENTS BACK TOGETHER?
SINCERELY, KATIE McCORMICK."
OH, MY DEAR KATIE.
YOU KNOW, SOME PARENTS, WHEN THEY'RE ANGRY,
THEY GET ALONG MUCH BETTER WHEN THEY DON'T LIVE TOGETHER.
THEY DON'T FIGHT ALL THE TIME AND CAN BECOME BETTER PEOPLE...
AND MUCH BETTER MOMMIES AND DADDIES FOR YOU.
AND SOMETIMES THEY GET BACK TOGETHER.
AND SOMETIMES THEY DON'T, DEAR.
AND IF THEY DON'T, DON'T BLAME YOURSELF.
JUST BECAUSE THEY DON'T LOVE EACH OTHER ANYMORE,
DOESN'T MEAN THAT THEY DON'T LOVE YOU.
THERE ARE ALL SORTS OF DIFFERENT FAMILIES, KATIE.
SOME FAMILIES HAVE ONE MOMMY.
SOME FAMILIES HAVE ONE DADDY OR-OR TWO FAMILIES.
AND SOME CHILDREN LIVE WITH THEIR UNCLE OR AUNT.
SOME LIVE WITH THEIR GRANDPARENTS, AND SOME CHILDREN LIVE WITH FOSTER PARENTS.
AND SOME LIVE IN SEPARATE HOMES IN SEPARATE NEIGHBORHOODS,
IN DIFFERENT AREAS OF THE COUNTRY.
AND THEY MAY NOT SEE EACH OTHER FOR DAYS, WEEKS, MONTHS,
OR EVEN YEARS AT A TIME.
BUT IF THERE'S LOVE, DEAR,
THOSE ARE THE TIES THAT BIND.
AND YOU'LL HAVE A FAMILY IN YOUR HEART FOREVER.
ALL MY LOVE TO YOU, POPPET.
YOU'RE GOING TO BE ALL RIGHT.
BYE-BYE.
