No Maxwell would never [turns] oeh, Maxwell i uh was just looking for the [mumbles something] file and i just rememberd where i left it [walks out]
S Mr. Sheffield
Stay out of the guestroom! [C.C. quickly walks the other way]
S Mr. Sheffield
So what brings you here, Miss Fine? [sits on his desk]
S Mr. Sheffield
Niles, get that hideous thing off the terrace, would you?
[To C.C.] Mr. Sheffield wants you to get off the terrace.
S Mr. Sheffield
So, Ms. Fine, back from the batting cages. How did my boy do?
Well... He made contact with the ball. And, er, he'll have a great career if the Bee Gees ever get back together.
Niles, pour me some more tea. [Niles ignores her and continues chopping vegetables] I want some more tea, Niles. [Niles continues to ignore her.] You are a butler, now buttle!
[Maxwell enters the kitchen. C.C. doesn't notice, but Niles does.]
Would you like some tea, Miss Babcock?
You know damn well I want some more tea, you imbecile, now pour!!
S Mr. Sheffield
Don't speak to Niles like that; poor man isn't a mind-reader!
Oh, it's alright, sir. Perhaps my hearing isn't what it once was. Forgive me.
Mr. Sheffield, the only thing that Andrew Lloyd Webber has that you don't is a middle name.
S Mr. Sheffield
I've got a middle name.
Well, there you are! What is it?
Oh dear. That was the last apple.
S Mr. Sheffield
Oh, I'm sorry, old man. Did you want it?
Well, yes, sir, but I didn't realize I wanted it until someone else had sunk his teeth into it and now it's too late. It was right there in front of me. If only I snatched it up when I had the chance, I wouldn't have this aching hunger.
S Mr. Sheffield
Good God, man, have a bloody pear!
. . .
Oh dear. That was the last pear.
Oh, I'm sorry. Did you want it?
Well, yes, but I didn't realize I wanted it until someone else had sunk his teeth into it.
Alright while your here, do you think I should take this back [holds up a sparkly top, not noticing that she isn't wearing a shirt]
S Mr Sheffield
Uh, I think you should put it on...
No, I already had it on, it flattens out my br-. [notices she's in her bra and screams] Mr. Sheffield! Why didn't you say anything?!
S Mr Sheffield
Well, I uh...I didn't notice!
You didn't- you know now I'm beginning to wonder about you to! [gets stuck in her shirt] Oh I can't get it on, I'm stuck, help me.
S Mr Sheffield
Oh, relax Miss Fine we'll get it on [Niles walks by and stares with shock as Maxwell tries to take her shirt off]
Oh Mr. Sheffield I'm so hot!
S Mr Sheffield
I can't do this standing up, just...just get on the bed! [sits her down on the bed and sits on top of her]
S Mr Sheffield
[ gets it off and she falls on the bed, his mouth falls open in shock as he looks up and sees Niles, Fran notices too]
...If you let me tell Miss Babcock about this, I'll work free for a year.
[walks in the kitchen, Niles is writing something] Well, I couldn't be happier that Nanny Fine finally found a man. Oh, what are looking so smug about?
Oh, just an incident in Miss Fine's room last night.
No, with her and another man.
Ooo, I love it. Tell me, tell me!
Oh no, I couldn't possibly. I swore I wouldn't say a word. [rips off a note] Read this.
[reads the note] ...WHY?! [her head falls down on the counter] I wanna die!
There, there, [puts a knife into her purse} now don't do anything rash... [Maxwell walks in]
S Mr. Sheffield
Hello C.C.
S Mr. Sheffield
You didn't say anything to Miss Babcock about last night, did you?
[innocently] No, you told me not to.
S Mr. Sheffield
(looking closely at a picture) Aha, just as i thought, Kurt's teeth are capped.
S Mr Sheffield
I'm not making it up, look, look you can see the little ridges. (holds the picture to her face)
Maxwell, what is wrong with you today? If you're not gonna pay any attention to me, i might as well just go home.
(opens the window and wistles) TAXI?
[Lamb Chop freaks out when C.C. walks in wearing a wool coat]
Ms. Babcock, your coat. New Zealand Lamb?
Maybe she had people there?!
S Mr. Sheffield
Take. It. Off.
Three words she doesn't hear often. [Niles & Lamb Chop fist-pump together]
Niles, isn't that sweet? You're bonding with the sheep. Not the first one, I'm sure.
Bravo. You win. Every dog has her day.
S Mr. Sheffield
Well congratulations Miss Fine, you were right about your sister. Is there anyone in your family that isn't a complete lunatic?
Hey! I'll have to get back to you with that one, but hey!
S Mr. Sheffield
No what i want right now is to be in a pub with my hands wrapped around a tall larger
A larger? Do the kids know that you're considering an alternate lifestyle?
S Mr. Sheffield
It's a beer, Miss. Fine.
S Mr. Sheffield
If you had absolutely no intention of going through with this album cover in the first place. What are we arguing about?
Well i have no idea i can't shake the image of you picking up Paul Bunyan in a bar
S Mr. Sheffield
God, it would be easier to have them raised by wolves.
S Mr. Sheffield
Ms. Fine, I heard about the contest and I just can't bear the thought of you feeling badly about yourself.
Thank you, Mr. Sheffield. That's awfully sweet of you but, really, there's nothing you can say or do that's gonna make me feel any better.
S Mr. Sheffield
Well then, I suppose I'd be wasting my breath if I told you no girl could possibly be a match for a woman like you.
. . .
S Mr. Sheffield
I think you are one heck of a kisser... I can't remember being kissed like that... With such passion, such abandon, such... suction.
Well, Danny used to call me his little Dirt Devil.
[Sees Maxwell and Fran in bed] AHHHHHHH!!!!
S Mr. Sheffield
[jolted awake] C.C.? What the devil are you doing in here?
What am I doing in here?? Wh-what is...SHE doing in here?!
S Mr. Sheffield
[Sees he's in bed with a woman] Oh...[Looks to see who it is] Ahh! Ms. Fine!
[Stirs awake, looks at Maxwell sleepily] Oh, I'm having that dream again...[Reaches out and touches Maxwell's cheek, realizes it's actually him] AHH! MR. SHEFFIELD! [Gathers the bedsheets around herself while scrambling out of the bed] WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN–[Looks around] your room?
[To a wide-eyed, shocked C.C.] Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to you.
S Mr. Sheffield
WOULD YOU ALL KINDLY GET OUT OF MY ROOM?!
[Follows a still shocked C.C. out] Happy Birthday, Ms. Babcock...
Listen I can't really explain it, but all I know is that the next morning my ears always itch. (Maxwell looks confused) Oh what, like you don't have a thing?
S Mr. Sheffield
Alright, I sing.
Any particular song or do you just scat? (eating a scone)
S Mr. Sheffield
(sighs) "Georgy Girl".
Really? Jee I've been working here for two years and never once heard ya sing- (realizes, Maxwell looks at her annoyed) Eeeh, great scones.
. . .
S Mr. Sheffield
After all nothing happened right?
Right. (They smile, and both walk to opposite sides of the wall, both looking in a mirror)
S Mr. Sheffield
(starts to sing while Fran itches her ears) "Hey there, Georgy girl, what a nice day to-" (both realize)
