That '80s Show (2002) s01e03 Episode Script

Tuesday Comes Over

I'll take that.
What are you doing? I'm throwing it out because it's plastic and non-biodegradeable.
Why aren't you throwing out your razor? Because I'm an environmentalist.
I'm just not ready to be a hairy environmentalist.
Are you shaving to look pretty for your work girlfriend? She's not my girlfriend.
What is that? Ecologically safe toilet paper.
It's unmilled and unbleached.
Totally recycled.
This used to be a dictionary.
Corey, do you have my socks? No.
I don't wear your socks.
Not my socks, your socks.
The one's that I always wear.
You know, those ones with the little Scotty dogs on 'em.
Daddy, those are mine.
You know, I thought they seemed a little snug around the calf.
Dad, why aren't you in your own bathroom, using your own clippers? Ah, I blew them out on my big toe.
Why is it you turn 40, suddenly your nails become like sheet rock.
Why are they yellow? I don't even smoke.
Uh-uh.
Chlorofluorocarbons.
Not on my watch.
Could everyone Please just leave me alone so I can shave with my girlie razor? How do you use this thing? Just start at your ankles and work your way up.
Did you pack a lunch? 'cause the bag's stuck to your face.
Oh.
Yeah, it's a little a little crowded in the bathroom this morning.
Got a lot of Roommates? Uh, yeah, the roommates.
So sick of living with those people.
Eh, that's why I got rid of mine.
I had to move to a smaller place, but it was worth it.
Yeah.
Yes.
That's what I need to do.
I need to get a smaller place.
So you live alone? You know, I wasn't trying to start a conversation here.
I just backed into it accidentally.
Ok, staff meeting.
Are we all here? There was a Stack of packing slips on my desk as wide as Tom Petty's overbite.
And now they're gone.
I was here late, so I filed them.
You took the initiative and did something helpful Without my asking.
I'll let it slide this time, but I got my eye on you.
Hi.
Some friends are coming over to watch  newhart, have a little penne.
Anything new you might suggest to kind of set the tone? Hmm, let me think.
A sound-effects record with people screaming? Ha Ha ha! That's funny.
I know this might seem strange, but some people actually buy music So they can listen to it.
Really? And some people only wear their halloween costume one day a year.
Uh, excuse me, sir, but unlike you, my colleague here is an original thinker who chooses her wardrobe independently, instead of dressing up like page 34 of the L.
L.
Bean catalog.
Who do you think you are? [IMITATING YUPPIE.]
Don't you remember? We met at the networking seminar.
Oh, no.
Wait.
It was racquetball.
We mixed up our rolexes.
Hey! Hey! Hey! What do you think you're doing? You insult the customer after you make the sale.
Get out.
You know, you didn't have to defend me.
I could have handled him on my own.
Yeah, I know, but why should you have all the fun? I hate yuppies.
They're spoiled, arrogant.
Here's the evil part: They never wear socks with their docksiders.
They think they're so superior-- like writing something in a filofax makes it important.
Yeah.
What's wrong with Just living simply? You know? A roof over your head and a light to read by.
Exactly.
Their lives are so empty, they have to Cram it with meaningless stuff.
I hate their sectional sofas.
I hate their coffee grinders.
I hate their kids with 3 names.
Ok.
Ok.
Enough with the Pillow talk.
Why don't you two just get a room? Ok, this is how it works.
Say you finish reading the paper.
Now, where does it go? Receptacle "A", "B", Or "C"? mmm, let me think.
"D".
I don't care.
Daddy, if you love the planet, we all have to do our part.
I'll tell you what, honey.
You love the planet, I'll love the FOXY ladies who live on it.
Oh, Katie.
Have you got a couple minutes? Yes.
Do you consider yourself to be someone who knows a good value? Yes.
And if you could save some money, you'd like that, wouldn't you? Why, yes.
And if I said you could be driving a brand-new car with No money down, You'd be interested, right? Yes.
Congratulations, you just bought a brand-new car.
I see what you did.
That was very convincing.
Thank you.
What color is it? Huh? What color is my brand-new car? Doesn't matter.
It's a done deal.
It is not! I wanna see the manager! Damn! I get that all the time.
Ok.
Ok.
Easy now, car boy.
Look, if I don't make my 15th sale by the end of the day, they'll take my demo away.
My demo's a bmw.
I worship my bmw.
Aw, now come on.
You shouldn't worship a car, son.
You need to worship something truly valuable, like money.
Eye of the tiger, Roger.
Thanks for the pep talk, rt.
Hi, Katie.
I'm sorry I'm late.
It took me forever to decide what to wear.
So, what kind of people are going to be at this earth-day party? Sophie, it's not exactly a party.
It's more like a day of work, celebrating the earth, putting up fliers, picking up trash.
Like sanitation workers cleaning up after mardi Gras? Pass.
But I'm sure the two of us can think of something else to do.
A little more hands on.
Oh, like recycle motor oil.
And, by the way, I know what you meant.
And no.
Boy, I tell ya, saving the planet really does take it out of you, doesn't it? Could I interest you in a cup of Joe? No, thanks.
Oh, that tennis Elbow's really acting up.
I guess I shouldn't have gone so hard on the nautilus down at the gym.
They say the best thing for relieving muscle pain is a hot tub.
You must mean second best.
Ok, I'm leaving before This gets really humiliating.
I know a guy who can give you a good deal on one, if you're interested.
Oh, I'm interested.
I'm interested.
Good.
I'll make a call.
In Katie's room.
You know, if I were you, I'd be really careful, 'cause, uh, Sophia doesn't do a lot of giving without a lot of taking.
Oh, that's sweet.
You giving me advice.
Don't do that.
Hello.
Think I could put one of these up? Let me guess--a Cyndi lauper Look-alike contest? I think you've got a lock on it.
That's so mean.
You must be tuesday.
I'm Katie, Corey's sister.
Oh, earth day '84.
Wow, it's early this year.
I'm still signing my checks earth day '83.
That was funnyto no one.
Wait a minute.
You thought I was funny this morning when we were making fun of the yuppies.
That was then, this is now.
I think she likes you.
And if I said you could drive off the lot today with absolutely no money down, You'd be interested, right? Yes.
Congratulations.
I'll get the keys.
Hold on.
I'm just afraid that's more than we were planning on spending.
Understandable.
For a car without floor mats.
But what if I was able to throw them in for no extra charge? Do you like free? Sure.
Ok, you two sit tight and think about that first romantic drive you're gonna take up that coast together, eh? And I'm gonna try to talk my boss into this deal.
You got them in that brown diesel? With the Mock leather interior? No way.
Yes way.
That piece of high-gross crap? No way.
Way.
We're going to take some time and think about it and come back later.
Wait.
I was just coming back in.
I got you the mats.
All 4.
Freshly vacuumed.
Pine scented and everything.
We'll let you know, dear.
Ok, then I'll be right here waiting.
Was that Mr.
And mrs.
Be-back? Because you know they won't.
I picked up a couple of brochures for you, rt.
Now, this is the atlantis.
It would look great out here.
It's all redwood, seats 4, and has its own retractable cover.
Fascinating.
Tell me, is it really True that you swing both ways? Uh-huh.
Ooh, look at this one.
It comes with an INTERCHANGEABLE hydro-massage jet kit.
Interesting.
I'm sorry things didn't work out with you and my son.
Or my daughter.
  C'est la vie.
You know, I bet a big man like you needs room to move around stretch his legs.
Uh, what'd you have in mind? Page 4.
The majestic.
100% cedar.
Now, this is a hot tub fit for a king.
Talk about your hard wood, huh? Oh, yeah.
[COUGHS.]
Hello! Mother nature says you're really not helping with the ozone problem.
[RADIO PLAYS.]
Sorry.
I'll put it on my to-do list for tomorrow.
Tuesday? Cindy? It's Katie.
Whatever.
What are you doing in your car? I was just about to drive home.
From the back seat? I'm not sure I believe you.
You wanna come in, don't you? Well, I wouldn't want to impose.
Ok! This is nice.
It's a lot more spacious than it looks on the outside.
Do you wanna talk about it? Look, I'm kind of in-between places.
I'm moving to a new apartment on Monday.
Oh, good.
Only 4 days.
You know what would really be great? If you could stay in an actual house.
Oh, my god! I live in one.
What a coincidence.
Thanks, anyway, but I'm fine here, and I wouldn't wanna lose my parking spot.
Oh, come on.
I can't speak for the mileage, but I can definitely offer more headroom.
I don't think so.
Ok, if you won't come and stay, at least come and have a shower.
Is that a hint? Only if you plan to continue entertaining in close quarters.
Have you got a Washer/Dryer? Does Joanie love chachi? Let's roll.
Oh, my god! I'm sorry! I didn't realize anybody was in here.
Corey? Tuesday? Oh, my god.
You look soclean.
What are you doing in my bathroom? Your bathroom? You live here? Uh, no.
I used to.
I don't now.
So I'm leaving.
You do live here! How did you get in? You sister invited me.
For a shower? If she's in there, I'm gonna be really upset! If I knew that you lived here, I would never have come over! Oh, yeah? Well, me, either.
And by the way, that brown toilet paper-- Very scratchy.
Hey, that used to be a dictionary.
Yeah, she certainly is a beauty.
The hot tub's not bad, either.
I have a feeling you're going to be really happy you decided to go for that larger model.
I have a feeling you will be, too.
So, now that we got her all filled up, what you say you and I take her for a little test drive? Tell you what-- why don't you wait here? My suit's in the car.
Great.
[TIRES SQUEALING.]
She's not coming back, is she? Not a chance, dad.
'night.
Where you going? We still have 15 minutes.
Come on, give it up, rog.
They're not coming.
I hate the elderly.
Those lying sons of bitches.
Look, you may be losing the beemer, but maybe they'll let you drive a trade-in.
That yellow one's not bad, as long as you don't have to go in reverse.
Rot in hell, Frank.
Oh, sorry I let you down, little Buddy.
Mr.
Park? We've decided to buy the car.
Come in.
Have a seat.
I don't wanna pressure you.
I can give you more time.
Say, 7 minutes.
We're sure.
Oh, great.
I can't tell you how much this sale means to me.
A deal like this won't come along twice.
You're right.
This will probably be the last car we ever buy.
It's expensive, But we can cash out the life insurance.
And I really should switch To generic blood pressure medicine.
After all, we do need a reliable car to drive you to dialysis, Papa.
Could you excuse me just a sec? And he scores with a Hail Mary in the fourth.
Way to go, dude.
They can't afford this car.
Yeah, but they're gonna buy it, right? I can't do this to these people.
Here they need a reliable car, and I'm selling them some overpriced deathtrap? I know what I've got to do.
You do the closing.
Split the commission.
80-20.
60-40.
Done.
Boy, am I gonna sleep better tonight.
Oh, wow.
You're, like, a whole foot Shorter.
Do you wanna borrow a hair Dryer or a spike-making tool or something? No, thanks.
I've got to get going.
But your clothes aren't even dry yet.
It's ok.
I can just hang them off the antenna and floor it.
Come on.
They won't take that much longer.
Are you really in such a rush to gocar? No, don't iron those.
I don't mind.
I do it for Corey all the time.
They're vinyl.
Hence the toxic smell.
Oh, hi.
I was just talking to one of your roommates.
Ok, fine.
So I live at home.
I'm sorry.
Not all of us can afford to live alone.
That's pretty insensitive.
Hey, she's got her own place.
Why does she have to come over here and rifle through my sock drawer? What's wrong with you? Her place is too small for a sock drawer.
I don't care if she lives in a dumpster.
It's a subaru.
You live in a car? You didn't know? Oh, thank goodness.
I thought you were a huge jerk.
Oh, boy.
Is she looking at me? Yes.
Look, it wasn't my choice.
I moved down here with a friend of mine, and then she got a boyfriend, they took the apartment, and I took the back seat of my car.
And the toaster.
Tuesday, I'm sorry.
I didn't know.
Hey, I don't need your sympathy.
At least I'm not a hypocritical poser, unless this is what you meant by the simple life-- a roof over your head and a light to read by.
Hey, it might be a little nicer than I let on, but it's not like I'm living in the lap of luxury.
Hot tub's ready.
Ok, so, on face value, you might assume that that's yet another good thing.
In that robe? I don't think so.
Why did you lie about living at home? Me? You're the one that thinks that a car is a studio apartment.
Look at you two.
You're missing the point.
You're bonded in shame.
This is a beautiful thing.
God bless you, liars.
You don't have to pass me a note.
I allow talking out loud.
It's the number of my new place, in case you wanted to call before I can't pay my bill and they shut if off.
If that's your way of asking for a raise, forget it.
Hey, uh, you left your shirt at my house.
Well, what do you say we all step over to the water cooler for a little office gossip? It's not what you think.
Oh, it never is till maybe the third time.
Listen, I'm sorry I lied.
Ok, maybe I was just a little embarrassed about still living at home.
Ok, you know what? I'm sorry you lied, too.
Look, I don't hold it against you that you're still living at home.
Maybe if my parents lived closer, I'd crash on the Couch occasionally.
Yeah.
I bet if I were on my own, I'd probably find myself living in a car, too.
Truce? Whatever.
Wow.
The sexual tension is so thick in here.
It's just like watching   scarecrow and mrs.
King.
Andjust so you know, I may do laundry at your house every once in awhile.
I have got to know how your sister got my shirt so soft.
Downey.
Clapton couldn't live without it.
Even when that man was strung out, he smelled April fresh.
Boy, that takes me back.
Ok, that was far enough.
Boy, this really is the life, isn't it? And Talk about your Chick magnet.
Yeah, minus the chicks.
And only 200 bucks a month for 6 years.
Dad, didn't you know Sophia gets a kickback on every tub she sells? Imagine how unscrupulous a person would have to be to take advantage of a vulnerable, unwitting customer.
God, I love the eighties.
That belongs in the recycling bin, daddy.
Nazi.
[DANCE MUSIC PLAYS.]
Did it hurt? When I fell from heaven? Yes.
Yes, it did.
Ooh, boy, a little sore.
Think I overdid it at the gym after my 3-mile run.
They say the best thing for relieving muscle pain is a hot tub.
Oh, really? I know a guy who can give you a good deal on one.
If you're interested.
Oh, interested? Oh, god, Yeah.
