Best Foot Forward (2022–…): Season 1, Episode 7 - Episode #1.7 - full transcript
Mom, they're almost here.
I'll be done. Don't worry.
What movie are you gonna see?
Sword of the Cyborg.
I love Louie. He's so sneaky.
You know, Josh, maybe it
would be better to wait
and see a movie until
after we get your new leg.
No, Mom. I'm fine.
I know you're fine. You know,
it's just, people treat you differently
when you don't have your leg on.
Remember last year at the airport,
when that employee freaked out
because you wanted to get
on the automated walkway?
And then you yelled
at him, Mama!
I sure did, baby. Sure did.
Mom, I'm practically a
teenager. I can handle myself.
Age does not equal maturity.
But you said I could go.
I know. You're right.
Just remember, keep that
phone ringer on vibrate
so I can reach you if
there's an emergency.
But the movie theater says
to turn your phone off.
Movie theater rules are
not laws. My rules are.
Vibrate on, mister.
Yes, Mom.
I got it!
Yes! Coming!
Hi.
- Hi!
- Hey, Luisa.
I love your hair.
Thanks. My mama braided it.
All right, Luisa, time to go
back into the living room.
Give me and my
friends some space.
Fine. Bye!
- Bye.
- See ya.
All right. Come on in.
I'm so excited to go to
the movies by ourselves.
I know. I wanna get there early so we
can get those perfect middle seats.
Me too.
You know, my mom makes us sit in the aisle
so we can get to the bathroom easier.
Like I'm six or something.
Want some drinks?
I brought some drinks.
No way!
- Liquid Louie?
- Sorry, liquid who now?
It's from Sword of the Cyborg.
Wouldn't it be so cool
if we could drink Liquid Louie
while watching Sword of the Cyborg?
Unfortunately, they don't
sell this at the theater.
Yeah, probably because the name
sounds like you're drinking a person.
Hey…
why don't we just sneak it in?
Really?
Josh Dubin wants to
sneak soda into a movie?
That's against the rules.
I mean, you said they
don't sell it in there,
so it's not like we're taking
money from the theater.
Besides, movie theater
rules aren't laws.
I don't know, man.
Come on. It's our first
movie by ourselves.
It's gotta be epic.
Yeah, well, how do we even
sneak it in there? It's huge.
I have an idea.
Well, the boy's a genius.
Louie would be proud.
Actually, it looks pretty good.
Let's go to the movies!
- Mom, we'll be in the car!
- I'll be right there!
Okay, go. Go, go.
Okay, be safe.
Please stay together.
And call me if there
are any problems.
- All right, Mom. We'll be fine.
- Yeah.
Thank you, Mrs. Dubin!
- Bye, Mrs. Dubin.
- Bye! Have fun.
- See you later!
- Thank you! Bye!
Sword of the Cyborg,
here we come.
Movie without our parents.
Yeah!
That don't look right.
- Josh, nuh-uh!
- Josh! No, wait! Josh!
- No!
- Hold up, no!
Dude, that is super noticeable.
I know.
- Security guard.
- Hide me.
Hi. Wonderful movies
we're having tonight.
Evening.
Sorry. Did... Okay.
- No, he's not gonna make it.
- Be cool.
Nice.
Excuse me.
Son, I couldn't help but
notice there's a problem here.
Oh, no, not that problem.
Not that there's a problem
with your overall ampu...
disabil... situation.
Not that it's a situation.
It's not even noticeable.
Just like your foot.
Like, not your foot... Not...
The... Where the foot... Not...
You enjoy your movie.
Let's go.
Okay. I guess it's just
Mom, Dad and the littles.
I'm not little.
I am!
All right, well, little or not,
let's get some yum in that tum.
What do you say we
order one cheese pizza…
And a veggie.
One Veggie Supreme.
- Caesar salad.
- Got it. One Caesar salad, coming up.
Caesar, Caesar…
I don't see salad.
You have to press
the hamburger menu.
I'm ordering salad.
The three little lines?
- That is called a hamburger menu.
- Okay.
Okay, pressing the
hamburger menu.
What? No, I'm not a robot.
What do I gotta sign in for?
Okay. Let me do it, old man.
- "Old man"?
- Yeah.
You... It's confusing.
Look at it. They changed
the whole platform.
No, it's not.
You click "guest," and then
you confirm your order.
One cheese. One
veggie. A Caesar salad.
- And done.
- She's so smart.
I guess it's Dad
and the littles.
Sweetheart, it's okay.
Some of us stay young at heart.
- Not old-man Daddy!
- That's right, Luisa.
She called you old.
- I know, I heard her.
- Okay. Hey, fellow littles,
what do you say we go
play some video games?
- Yeah!
- Yes!
And let Grandpa take a nap.
Yay!
You know, babies take naps!
And they're zero!
There he is. This is so
cool. Here, take a picture.
Okay.
Hey.
- Hey.
- Sup?
Look at all of us, out to see
the movies all by ourselves.
We're here with our parents.
- You aren't?
- Nope.
- Just us.
- We're going to see Louie's Last Heist.
Lucky!
We were forced to suffer through
the derivative, goldfish-led,
animated young children's tale,
Goldie and the Seven Seas.
- It stunk.
- Sorry.
Our little brother
wanted to see it.
Wait. Little brothe...
- You guys are...
- Siblings.
Half-siblings.
- Okay.
- Cool.
We gotta go. Gerald needs
to be in bed before 8:00.
- See ya.
- See you on Monday.
- I feel bad for them.
- Yeah.
But I guess not everyone is mature enough
to go out in the world on their own.
Fancy, Kyle.
Bringing out the
big guns tonight.
Yeah, I'm not going to
apologize for looking good.
Going to the movies
is a social event now.
- Thought it was about seeing the movie.
- Yeah, if the movie's before 7:00.
But after that, this
place is basically a club.
Someone spilled soda in
theater 5. Go grab a mop.
What was that about?
Here you go.
You look like you
work here, vestie.
Let's just go.
Louie, Louie, Louie,
Louie, Louie, Louie!
Wow.
Middle seats.
- Perfect.
- Yeah.
Excuse me.
You almost missed the special seats
for special guests just like you.
Thank you so much, but
actually, I'm good.
I can handle the stairs.
It's for your safety.
But I don't...
He takes the stairs
all the time at school.
Yeah. He even gave
back the elevator key.
It's company policy.
You listen to me, sir.
I am a paying customer, and
the customer is always right.
I demand to speak
to your supervisor.
I am the supervisor.
Let me escort you to your seat.
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
All right. Enjoy the movie.
- Hello.
- Hello.
You look just like
my grandson Dominic.
Would you like to see
some photos of him?
- Of course.
- I have them right here in my phone.
Now, how do I...
Supposed to touch something.
I'm touching. It's
not happening.
Get the pumpkin.
- Nice.
- Kill the ghost.
Can you kill a ghost? I feel
like they're already dead.
It's a game.
- That's dinner.
- Dinner!
- Honey, grab the plates.
- Yes!
- All right, grabbing.
- Another ghost. Yes.
- Hello. Thank you.
- Hey. Here you go.
And then hold on.
I've got the rest.
Oh, right, the salad. Matthew?
- Coming.
- Thank you.
Sorry.
I think there's been a mistake
'cause we just ordered two pizzas.
No, you ordered 20.
Gary?
Twenty pizzas? You're
the best mama ever!
No, sweetheart. I think
there's some kind of mistake.
- What is all this?
- I...
- We throwing a party?
- Ha ha. I... No, it's some kind of mistake.
N... Okay.
Can you please stop
handing me pizzas?
I just ordered one
cheese and one veggie.
No, you ordered ten cheese
and then ten veggie.
- No. Gary, let me see your phone.
- Twenty pizzas!
I know. So many pizzas!
- Respectfully... What's your name?
- Joel.
Joel. I only ordered two pizzas,
and there is a huge error.
I can prove it,
because, as you see...
How did I order 20 pizzas?
In the drop-down
menu for "amount,"
instead of one, I think
you might have clicked ten.
Yeah, you did do that.
But how? I...
It's okay. Don't feel bad. This happens
to a lot of our older customers.
What?
Don't feel bad.
This happens to our
older customers.
Okay, Joel. The hearing is fine.
Okay. Thank you so much
for the 20 pizzas, Joel.
- No problem, ma'am.
- "Ma'am?"
- Okay. Thank you so much.
- "Ma'am?"
- You drive safe, okay? Have a great night.
- "Ma'am?"
Luisa, can you grab
the salad and...
Both you guys. Head
into the kitchen now.
- Quickly. Thank you.
- Gary, "ma'am"? I'm not a ma'am.
- Pizza.
- Don't worry, Grandma.
I'll save some napping
space for you on the couch.
Okay, this is not my fault.
They changed the website.
What are we gonna do
with all this pizza?
It's okay.
I'll blend it up into a smoothie so it
doesn't get caught in your dentures.
Not funny.
Well, Dominic says he
wants to be a firefighter,
but we'll see if that sticks.
He did also say he might take
over the family business,
but his mother's a surgeon,
and I don't think he understands
the schooling involved.
Excuse me.
I'll be right back.
Man, this movie
night is terrible.
We were supposed to watch
Louie's Last Heist together.
The security guard won't
leave. I can't move.
Why is this so complicated?
Man, if your mom was here,
she'd yell at everyone
until you got to sit
wherever you want.
Sounds great.
Maybe we should just
come back another night.
No. We're not giving up. Okay?
We're gonna watch Louie's Last
Heist together. All right?
We don't need my mom.
We can handle this.
We're not little kids anymore.
- We're in seventh grade...
- Practically eighth.
That's right. We can
figure something out.
Okay. But what?
Kyle, grab some cups.
We're gonna make Louie proud.
First, Kyle, in
his employee vest,
will tell the manager that
there's a problem in the lobby.
Then Gabriella and I enter.
We give each other a cool nod.
Then we split up.
I head back to my special seat.
Kyle will secure our
perfect middle seats.
And Gabriella will distract the guard
by telling him she lost her phone
and asking him to take
her to the lost and found.
Thus freeing up my
path to freedom.
By the time the guard gets
back, the lights will be off,
and he'll have no
idea I've moved.
Then, Gabriella will rejoin us.
It's a perfect plan.
- What was that?
- What was what?
What's in your pocket?
Look. I guess it
was here all along.
But wait, maybe my
jacket is missing?
Could you still just show me
where the lost and found is?
I'm just glad you
found your phone.
Josh.
Thanks again for finding my phone
so much quicker than expected,
Mr. Security Guard!
No!
It's far too cold in here.
Don't just stand
there, son. Go fix it.
Yes, ma'am. Right away,
ma'am. Sorry, ma'am.
Thank you.
One of the perks for being old.
Young people have to listen to you.
Enjoy the movie.
Let's go.
Louie! Louie! Louie!
- We did it.
- Yeah.
We made Louie proud.
Let's toast him.
Cups right here.
Have that.
It's starting.
- Stop it, dude! No! Just...
- Oh, my God!
Get a manag...
You guys think it's
cool, but it's not.
What happened?
This young man concealed a
beverage bottle in his pants
and then proceeded to spray
it all over my theater.
Seriously?
It was an accident.
I'm sorry.
We did clean it up, though.
Clearly, you're not ready to
go to the movies by yourself.
I mean, none of you are.
- I am so disappointed...
- Ma'am.
- Please, I'm handling this.
- "Ma'am"?
Uh-oh.
You know what, Daphne?
Daphne, you're
right. I am a ma'am.
And my son and his friends,
they made a mistake.
A mistake which they cleaned
up and clearly paid for.
So, if you're done
handling this,
I'm gonna take these kids
home and get them cleaned up
so they don't stick
to each other, okay?
- Yes, ma'am.
- Okay. You have a good night, Daphne.
You three, let's go.
You're fired. Turn in your vest.
Wha...
I don't even work here!
This is my vest.
This is ridiculous.
Who wants popcorn?
Or pizza?
Please, eat the pizza.
All right, who's ready to watch the
original Sword of the Cyborg movie?
Why isn't this turning on?
- It's that button.
- That's for the menu.
No.
That is menu, and that is power.
Okay, that used to be power.
I got it.
- That's nice.
- It's okay. I like that you're old.
What? Get over here!
Oh, my gosh!
And also, for the record,
Daddy is older than Mommy.
Thanks, babe.
Louie. Louie. Louie.
I'll be done. Don't worry.
What movie are you gonna see?
Sword of the Cyborg.
I love Louie. He's so sneaky.
You know, Josh, maybe it
would be better to wait
and see a movie until
after we get your new leg.
No, Mom. I'm fine.
I know you're fine. You know,

- I am so disappointed...
- Ma'am.
- Please, I'm handling this.
- "Ma'am"?
Uh-oh.
You know what, Daphne?
Daphne, you're
right. I am a ma'am.
And my son and his friends,
they made a mistake.
A mistake which they cleaned
up and clearly paid for.
So, if you're done
handling this,
I'm gonna take these kids
home and get them cleaned up
so they don't stick
to each other, okay?
- Yes, ma'am.
- Okay. You have a good night, Daphne.
You three, let's go.
You're fired. Turn in your vest.
Wha...
I don't even work here!
This is my vest.
This is ridiculous.
Who wants popcorn?
Or pizza?
Please, eat the pizza.
All right, who's ready to watch the
original Sword of the Cyborg movie?
Why isn't this turning on?
- It's that button.
- That's for the menu.
No.
That is menu, and that is power.
Okay, that used to be power.
I got it.
- That's nice.
- It's okay. I like that you're old.
What? Get over here!
Oh, my gosh!
And also, for the record,
Daddy is older than Mommy.
Thanks, babe.
Louie. Louie. Louie.
