S6 E1Denise: The Saga Continues

[After Denise reveals to Martin she didn't tell her parents that she's married to him]

You were gonna let me go in here and meet two people who don't even know I exist, and then say, "By the way, I'm married to this guy"?

Yeah, something like that.

Well, first of all, we want to tell that we are really proud of you for sticking it out in the rainforest of Africa. That must have been quite an experience and I'm sure that you have grown a lot from that. And you're probably thinking about what you're gonna do next with your life.

You know, as a matter of fact, I wanna talk to you guys about that.

Yes! And I talked to the president of Hillman and she said you can come back anytime you want.

Mom, Dad, I'd like to...talk to you about the guy who's watching my luggage.

(chuckles) Come on. No, no, no. We're talking about...

No, Dad.

Yes?

He's wonderful.

Good, good.

His name is Martin.

Fine.

And, um...Dad, he graduated from Annapolis. And, uh...ahem. He's a lieutenant in the navy.

Ah, boy. Navy man. Can't go wrong with that.

You have to bring him by the house sometime.

Yeah, yeah! I'd love to! Soon, I hope.

Sure, okay, yeah.

Wow! You two sound serious!

Yeah, we are.

Yeah.

Um...We got married.

[Clair is stunned]

So, I'm talking about what we're going to do is...Now, even if you don't want to go to college...

(while Cliff is still talking) Cliff, stop! Stop, Cliff! Stop, stop, stop!

I'm talking to her about going to college...

This child has just said that she is married!

Who said that?

Dr. Huxtable (shakes Cliff's hand), Mrs. Huxtable (shakes Clair's hand). It's a pleasure to meet you both. Denise has told me so much about you.

I'm sorry we can't say the same about you.

Mom, Dad, the Kendalls are home!

[Cliff and Clair come downstairs]

There's someone here I'd like you to meet.

[Cliff and Clair meet Martin's daughter, Olivia]

Oh, Martin, she's adorable. Isn't she, Cliff?

She's too short.

Olivia, this is Denise's father. His name is Dr. Huxtable.

Hi.

And how are you?

I'm fine.

Good. Do you have a job?

No.

Then I guess I can't get any money out of you.

I have money.

You do? How much?

I have a lot of it. You can have some if you want.

I know this is not one of my children.

Vanessa was in here.

Oh, really?

Well, yeah. Came in to complain there's too many people in the house, and then demanded to use our bathroom.

Did you tell her to get a job?

(about Denise) The child is in a room across the hall with a man and a baby and she's a baby herself. Denise doesn't know what she's doing, Cliff. Did you see her at the table? Did you see her cut that broccoli for Olivia? Those pieces were way too big. And when she wasn't looking, I cut that broccoli myself.

S6 E2Surf's Up

S6 E3I'm IN with the 'IN' Crowd

Cliff, Angela Henning just called to say that while she and her husband went out, her daughter and her friends- our daughter included - decided to play the alphabet game while chug-a-lugging bourbon, and it seems that Vanessa was very drunk when she left.

She must have lost.

[hungover] Daddy? Oh, Daddy...My stomach hurts. My head...EVERYTHING hurts. Please...give me something, anything...!

[gently] Nothing I can give you, kid. There's no cure for this.

I never thought Vanessa would crack under the pressure.

What pressure?

The pressure of growing up in this family. Because of what you guys have accomplished, people expect a lot more from us than other kids. Think about it, you're a lawyer, dad's a doctor. That's a lot of pressure mom.

We never said "become a doctor" "become a lawyer", we said "go to school, study, become whatever you want".

There you go, pressure! "Go to school" "become something", that's a lot of pressure, mom. All my friends see it.

Theo, when do you feel this pressure?

Every now and then.

This isn't about pressure, Vanessa got drunk because she and her friends were bored. Although they had television, VCR, video cassettes, audio cassettes, books.

And each other.

Thank you.

That they call every five minutes when they're away, yet they were bored together.

So you see, she did not feel any pressure from us, the only pressure she felt was from her friends.

S6 E4Denise Kendall: Navy Wife

[to Denise] You forgot to confirm the housing?

AAdmiral

That's what I told you!

Sorry, sir. I'm taken off guard. Denise, I told you!!

I know. I'm sorry.

AAdmiral

Would you like me to leave you two alone?

S6 E5Theo's Gift

Why couldn't they have had an essay question that said, "Write the story of Icarus"? I would have cleaned up on that.

Because this is not Burger King! You cannot have it your way!

S6 E7Shall We Dance?

MMrs. McGee

Rudy, finish cleaning the blackboard and go home! Clarence, pick up your books and go home! And I'm going to go home, and sit in a hot tub... and re-evaluate my life!
