In this episode: Kate Tanner (4), ALF (3), Willie Tanner (3), Brian Tanner (2), Lynn Tanner (1), Trevor (1)

[ALF is showing Brian how to play Skleenball]

The game of Skleenball is very simple, Brian. You just sling your anchovies into your opponent's laundry basket. Aw, missed!

Do we get to eat the anchovies after the game?

No! Does Marvin Haggler eat his trunks after a fight?

[comes in] Okay, who dumped my clean laundry on the floor?

Brian.

Well, ALF told me to and then we can play skleenball.

It's not nice to rat on your friends.

What's skleenball?

ALF A picture's worth a thousand words.

[the picture frame falls down]

That picture was worth a thousand dollars.

Well, maybe the frame makes it look cheap.

[picks up the ripped picture frame] I am tired of your breaking things. If this happens once more, you will be living in the garage.

From now on, I'll treat this house as if it were my own.

Treat it as if it were my house, and don't break anything! [goes inside the kitchen with the ripped picture frame] Cheap frame! [feels the ripped piece from the picture frame] I guess it can be repaired.

[voiceover] Heads up! [he rips another piece on the picture frame and Kate looks at ALF] Oops.

[Kate turns on the lights and finds out that the living room is empty]

Willie! Willie!

Our furniture!

We've been robbed!

Wishful thinking.

[Willie and Kate come to the garage and find out that ALF took most of the furniture from the house as Willie turns off the radio that ALF is listening to]

Oh, hi. Oh a housewarming gift, how nice. [he takes the pillow but Willie takes it away from him]

Who told you could bring this furniture out here?

Willie.

I did not!

You said I could bring something from the house.

I said something. Not everything! In all fairness, you did not make that point clear.

He did bring everything.

Well, I didn't take that hideous Statue of Liberty clock.

That clock was a gift from my mother.

Did I say hideous? I meant lovely. As lovely as your mother. [microwave dings] That must be the microwave. Brisket anyone?

FORGET THE BRISKET! ALF, I want you to take everything back into the house tonight. And I emphasize the word everything!

And I emphasize the word TONIGHT!

And if you don't, you will be living out here permanently!

I noticed you emphasized the word permanently. Wait, don't go! Please can we sit down and talk this out just give me 1 minute.

Alright, fine. Yes, you have 1 minute.

Thank you. Hey Willie, don't sit there, that's my chair.

That was my chair on the house.

Well, we're not in the house.

40 seconds.

Well that's not fair! Willie talk to penalize him.

35.

What are you mission control?

30.

30 seconds, I just had a minute half a minute ago.

Forget the minute! Just say what you have to say!

Uh, uh. No! No! I need human companionship! I don't know how I ever got along without it, but now I'm hooked. I'm a people junkie. Please don't go.

Oh, you go ahead Kate. I'll sit on here with him for a while.

Willie, what are you doing?

It seems like he really misses us.

I do, I do, I do.

Willie, he's got our furniture, and our brisket now he's after us!

Oh, you're right, of course. You're right. You're staying in the garage without us, and without our brisket!

Good night, ALF.

Kate, wait please! Give me another chance I know I could change just let me move back inside for 1 week and I'll prove it to you. I'll be on my best behavior!

What if during this week you don't change?

Then, Willie and I will move out here for good.

Alright you've got a deal.

Kate! I don't want to move out here.

Oh, I did mean that was part of- The deal is you stay in the house for 1 week, but if you mess up, you're history.

Hey, no problem! [the flower vase breaks] The week hasn't started yet, right?

Hi Tanner, who painted your fence? It looks great!

I don't what you're talking about. [walks over to the window] Wow! That looks great.

So who painted it?

Uhhh.

Happy birthday, Dad.

Oh, it's your birthday present. I hope I didn't ruin the surprise.

No, I was going to look out the window soon, anyway.

So, how old are you?

I'll be 45 in August.

That's 6 months away. It ain't your birthday. You just had your fence painted to keep up with the Ochmonek's. Well I'm not gonna tell you where I brought my fluorescent flamingos.

We blew it.

Hey, Kate, great looking breakfast.

Mom didn't make it.

Who did?

Our manservant.

You got a manservant?

Just for the week.

Do me a favor. Don't mention it to Raquel.

You have our word.

Thanks, she went ape when she found out you had a vacuum cleaner. Hey, listen. Have jeeves, give me a jingle. I might want him to paint my flamingos. [he gets a banana and leaves the house]

Will do.

[as he is preparing the table] 6:13, 1 minute to go Luck Meister. Then, I'll be down on you like a buzzard on a gut wagon. The duck a l'Orange is ready. Have some wine, it'll slow down your reflexes. [while staring at the burned turkey in the oven] Zut alors, the gas is on. I forgot to light the oven. Oh well, better late than never. [Lucky jumps off the window counter as ALF flies off to the living room when he blows up the kitchen, then ALF is sitting on the floor after the explosion] Well, I guess we'll have to order in.
