so I just want her to drop dead.
How thoughtful.
Allow me.
You pose.
I'm dropping dead.
Mission accomplished.
Do I get a stub?
No.
And you don't have to tip him either.
Oy, she's got no class.
Come on, Val, move.
Oy, this place is like the Taj Mahal.
Only with more bathrooms.
You never have to wait.
How come I'm still stuck in Flushing and you're living like Jackie O?
Jackie O is two doors down.
And, you know, she's very concerned about John-John.
You heard he quit the D.A. job, huh?
Oh, yeah. And now he ran off to California with that blonde fish.
Honey, it's all in how you raise them.
With mine, I got no complaints.
You've been their nanny for two weeks.
And I've worked wonders with them.
You know, you're gonna get pimples, too, some day, if you ever grow up!
The gravitational force is sucking me in!
I'm giving it all she's got, Captain.
I cannot break away.
I guess I'm just bad to the bone.

I take it, sir, the composer meetings aren't going well.
Why isn't there any new talent in this town?
The man in my office is positively ancient.
He's not composing, he's decomposing.
I got something that'll cheer you up.
Sounds splendid. By all means, take the children. Have a wonderful time.
Why do I feel a 'but' coming on?
No but. However, a carnival would be a good way
for you to spend some time with your kids.
And time is so fleeting at this age.
While I appreciate the skill and subtlety of your guilt mongering, I am opening a musical in eight weeks. Otherwise I'd love to go.
Well, he's got my vote for father of the year.
How else can we afford the lifestyle to which I've become accustomed?
So I flunked facials.
Why does everyone assume the worst of me?
It saves time.

Honey, I am so far ahead of you, we're in different time zones.

I was holding it for a friend.
It takes the idiots that start that filthy habit years to quit.
I still haven't knocked off all the weight.
But he'll ship me off to military school.
And can our country really afford that?
Come to think of it.
Are you trying to blackmail me?
Let's just say, if I'm going down, you're going down with me.

What was I thinking telling a story like that to a ten year old kid?
On the other hand, if I told him to jump off the Empire State Building
Hello.
That was my mother's voice
that just crossed the Queensboro Bridge
and flew out my mouth.
But with such dulcet tones.
Oh boy, this is so typical of kids.
You try and you try and what do you get? A slap in the face.

You know, Brighton wanted
me to sign that note,
but at the time he was just
looking to save his butt.
Of course, now that I'm looking to save mine,
Lots of bounce.
I'm giving you carte blanche, all right?
Oh, that's just an old bubbameister.
/ Bubbameister?
A bubbameister.
It's like an old wives tale.
Honestly, Niles,
it's the nineties for god sakes.
Who believes in the evil eye anyway?
Oy.
You're up early.
/I couldn't sleep.
Hm-hmm.
I have indigestion.
It has nothing
to do with a guilty conscience
if that's what you're implying.
Crepes.
/Back-off, Niles.
I said I would punish the kid.
What else do you want?
Dare I suggest syrup?
Oh, what's with the third degree?
I tried to tell him,
the man doesn't listen.
Everything I say goes in one ear
and out the other.
Good morning, Miss Fine.
I've been thinking about what you said.
What? What did I say?
/About spending more time with the children.
Yes, see? I've already started.
Children, we are going to the carnival.
All of us?
/ Hm-hmm.
The whole family.
We're gonna go on the rides.
We're going to eat cotton candy.
It'll be like being
a child again.
And it'll give me a chance to talk
to Brighton's headmaster.
See what he's been up to.
/ Whoops.
These things can get so sticky.
Uh, you know, I kind of soured
on that whole carnival thing.
It's so cold and windy.
It's in the gymnasium.
/ Hot and stuffy.
Miss Fine, I've just rearranged
my entire schedule,
and now you're telling
me you don't want to go.
Well, I'm not god.
I don't make the weather.
But you insisted.
I wasn't feeling
a hundred percent that day.
I think I was ovulating.
Your eggs, sir?
Well, you may stay at home,
but we are going.
Do something.
Okay, I'll do what I should
have done in the first place.
Here, here.
Here.
Mister Sheffield, I think
there's something you should know.
Brighton?
We don't care that you're on parole.
Everyone deserves a second chance.
Fine.
I'll tell him.
Mister Sheffield,
when we go to the carnival,
the headmaster may mention something
about Brighton smoking.
But he's quit.
And he's sorry.
And there's really nothing
for you to worry about.
Niles, these crepes are divine.
And so light.
/ My mother makes
a blintz that could double for a mattress.
Girls, you may be excused.
Not you, Miss Fine.
Smoking, Brighton?
I, I can't believe this.
What, what on earth
possessed you to do this?
Are you through here?
It's beginning to look that way.
Well, I'm waiting, young man.
What have you got to say for yourself.
I didn't inhale.
That is the most pathetically
lame excuse I have ever heard.
Go to your room.
Not you, Miss Fine.
Well, Mister Sheffield,
I think there's something you should know.
Well, I'll say.
Why wasn't I told about this?
Well, I tried to tell you.
You told me to take care of it.
I didn't know what the problem was.
/ Because you wouldn't listen.
Because you didn't tell me
it was anything like this!
Oh, well, it's pointless
to continue this discussion.
You had chocolate cake yesterday.
What's that bloody well
got to do with anything?
Low blood sugar.
You're completely irrational.
I'm irrational? Me?
/ Yes.
You're the one twisting everything around.
/Oh, so now I'm twisting?
You are the most exasperating,
infuriating
I think I just had
a small stroke.
Does that mean we're not
going to the carnival?
Miss Fine!
Well, it's very easy
for you to find fault.
You're off all day with
your glamorous theater people.
I'm stuck at home working
like a dog raising the kids.
You're the nanny!
It's your job!
Well, you're the father.
It's your job, too,
Mister Sheffield, sir.
Oh, just go to your room.
Yes, you!
Can you believe
he sent me to my room?
He is so adorable sometimes.
I'm in love!
I'm in love!
I'm in love!
/ No, no, no.
No, wrong.
Totally wrong.
Make a note.
Fire the casting director.
Maxwell, you're being
an absolute beast today.
I love it.
It's just that, that I know exactly
what I'm looking for.
I need a Broadway star
with huge stage presence
who's instantly recognizable
to the entire country.
Oh my god
Hello
/ Next!
He's tough.
/ You're telling me.
Break a leg, honey.
His.
I love her.
Your song, please?
Um, oh, I get to sing, too?
All right.
"People" in E flat.
Hit it.
/ Miss Fine!
Well, I can dream, can't I?
Take a break.
Ladies and gentlemen,
let's take a break.
Miss Fine, we were
in the middle of something.
Yes, I know.
That's why I'm here.
You know, you shouldn't leave
the house with things unresolved.
That's why men die young.
That's not why.
It's because they want to.
The wife?
/The nanny.
Look, we both know that you walked out
on me because you were losing the argument.
I wasn't losing anything.
Trust me.
When you induce
a stroke on your opponent,
it's a sure win.
I think you're winning again.
But it wasn't a fair fight.
You didn't have all the facts.
I don't think
I can take anymore.
Brighton got the idea to smoke
from a story that he might have,
maybe, sort of heard from me.
/From you?
Kinda.
/Well what did you tell him?
Well, he said that he was bad and
so I told him about a kid that was worse.
Who knew he'd take it
as a challenge.
That's my boy.
Always striving
to reach new depths.
Oh, I'm the worst nanny
in the world.
All right, Rebecca
De Morney, then me.
Oh, I could just cut my tongue out.
So if you wanna fire me, do it now.
No, I'm not gonna fire you.
Although that offer to cut out
your tongue might have some merit.
Why, if you told Brighton
to jump off London Bridge
God, I'm beginning to sound
just like my
I know.
Don't you hate
when that happens?
I still can't believe that
son of yours didn't turn me in.
Yeah.
Why do you suppose that is?
Who knows? He's probably got some
hideous torture planned for me later.
No, I think perhaps.
I mean, could it be?
What? /He likes you?
Well, stranger things
have happened.
Well, you're the first nanny Brightons'
made any kind of connection with.
His mother was the only
one that could handle him.
They had a special kind of relationship.
He feared her.
Fear.
That's the key.
Now we have to figure out a way
to scare him bad enough that
he never smokes again.
I sent him to his room.
Oh, please.
With a wide screen T.
V.
and a fully stocked mini-fridge? Punish me.
So, what do you suggest?
Something much more cruel
and unusual.
We are going to have to consult
the high priestess of punishment.
Hello, Ma?
Grandma Yetta?
Yeah?
It's Frannie.
Who?
Frannie, your granddaughter.
Oh, Frannie.
Hi.
Nice to meet you.
That's the one good thing about senility.
You're always meeting new people.
How you doin', Angel?
Thank God I still got my health.
Maybe you two could go out
and have a smoke later?
Morty! Morty, you never
looked so good.
Did you get hair plugs?
Oh no, Grandma,
that's not daddy.
So who the hell are you?
Oh, Maxwell Sheffield.
We brought you some babka.
Cake.
Put it away.
Save it for my room.
If they see
babka, they'll all want.
Grandma, I want you
to meet somebody.
Oh, I haven't seen you
since you were this big.
No, Yetta, you never
met him before.
Oh.
Oy, Yetta, you sound like
you're making espresso over there.
All right, all right,
I get the point.
Oh no, you don't, buddy.
We're just getting started.
Why don't you go
visit with Yetta?
Over there? / Yeah.
Where the air is nice and fresh.
Come here.
Let me
have a look at that face.
He's ready to quit smoking.
Smoking? Ech.
You smoke.
/Me it doesn't
effect.
I'm like a horse.
But you, you know
what could happen?
We'll go meet Ethel.
Phlegm in a hairnet.
Oh please, not Ethel.
Not Ethel.
I swear.
I'll never touch another
cigarette again.
Oh God
So what do you say,
we go grab a cup of coffee
and break open the babka? Hmm?
Babka? Babka?
/ Babka? Babka?
