That '70s Show (1998–2006): Season 6, Episode 10 - A Legal Matter - full transcript

Kelso thinks he's the stooge of the police academy and, with Eric and Hyde, breaks into the police academy to check his file.

Guys, there are actual
stewardesses out there,

and one of them talked to me.

I made this joke about
how they just flew in...

And their arms must be tired.

Yeah, great.

Kelso, their neckerchiefs are undone.

You can see their necks.

Look, I don't have time
for stewardess neck.

I gotta study.

They're really riding me down at the
police academy and I don't know why.

I know why. It's fun.



They even chose me last to
work on the c.P.R. Dummy,

so everybody's spit was all over it.

Yo, even Johnson's spit,

and he's got a monster cold sore.

I know why they're doing that.

I bet you're the stooge.

What?

Every year the police academy

lets one guy in they know will fail out.

They use him to scare the other cadets.

I know 'cause my brother was a stooge.

All right, fine. It was me.

Oh, man, I'm the stooge!

Hey, come on. Kelso, if that were true,



you'd have had to have been
a screw-up your whole life.

I mean, sure, you've fallen
off the water tower...

Every year... since junior high.

And you broke your arm wrestling a dog.

And, heck, no one's eaten
more change than you.

All right, I gotta
say, you guys are making

a pretty good case that I'm the stooge!

Well, if you're not,

there's a guy who's
about to step on a rake

that I really want to meet.

Hello, Wisconsin!

I can't believe I'm the stooge!

Michael, it's just the
way some people are, okay?

Some people are lazy.
Some people are clumsy.

Some people are stooges.

You're lucky enough to be all three.

Kelso, keep in mind you're
being called a stooge

by a stooge

while a third stooge sits idly by.

Compliment... accepted.

Now, listen, you nincompoops.

These pies are for some
very important clients.

Nothing should happen
to these pies. Got that?

Sure thing, boss.

Nice going, you knucklehead.
Now we gotta wash 'em.

Want to give me a hand?

Bravo! Bravo!

Ah, so we got a wise guy, huh?

Nyuk-nyuk-nyuk!

Oh, yeah?

Take this!

How's it going with those...

Pies?

Ugh. The three stooges have such bad hair.

You know, I wish I could go back in time

for just 10 minutes and
hand out combs and brushes.

Guys, can we focus here?

I gotta figure out if
I'm the stooge or not.

Well, why don't you just, like,
ask your Captain or something?

He won't tell me. That's the whole point.

I gotta get a look at my file,

which means I gotta break
into the police academy.

Okay, you see how you took
something that made sense

and then made it weird?

That's part of the problem.

That's what I like about you, kelso.

You can make a mess out of anything.

I'm in.

Yeah, well, not me. Breaking into a place

where they train people to shoot you

if you break into a place...

Come on, Eric. We're a team.

Yeah, Michael's the
looks. Steven's the brain.

And you, your house has food.

Hey, remember when we
shoplifted those baseball cards?

We were 12 years old.

And I didn't shoplift anything.

That's right. You went
home and told your mommy.

You mama's boy.

Well, did you want that
on your permanent record?

Yeah, I didn't think so, mister.

Oh, God, I am a mama's boy. I'm in.

Now, the secret to really good Fudge

is a tiny bit of Kahlua.

You must make a lot of Fudge,

'cause the bottle's almost empty.

Well, it's a tiny bit
of Kahlua for the Fudge,

a tiny bit for the chef.

Ha ha ha ha!

That's how you make cooking fun.

Apparently, it also works
for sewing and laundry

and sitting around watching tv.

Okay, the I.N.S. Called. I have to go in

for a final review before
I can pick up my green card.

I bet they give you a
test on U.S. history.

See, America is strict
about who we let in here

'cause we have stuff
that people want to steal.

Unlike your lesser countries,
like Canada and France.

See?

This is when a Bobby pin comes in handy.

Why do you have a Bobby pin?

I'm training my hair, okay?

I want more wave, less fluff.

Guys, this is serious.

Let's just find my file
and get out of here.

Hey, what's in here?

It's the k-9 training room.

It's where they keep all the samples

to teach the police
dogs what to sniff for.

Oh, man, these samples

are way better than our samples.

Did you see how quickly
I sniffed them out?

I could so be a police dog.

Cool. Training collar.

You know, I still don't get how
they could think I'm a stooge.

I'm, like, so on top of everything.

What's this thing do?

Oh!

Give me that, kelso!

You're gonna hurt yourself.

Quit it, Hyde. That really hurts.

Okay, do it one more time.

Okay, so this is George Washington,

the father of our country.

Well, George and I have
one thing in common.

We both look good in a powdered white wig.

Okay, so, fez, the statue of liberty

was a gift from the French.

The French? I didn't know that.

You didn't know that?

I really don't think
it's common knowledge.

Okay, I painted my nails
through two semesters

of American history, and even I knew that.

Well, don't I feel like the hillbilly

who wandered into town.

Well, it's no big deal, Mrs. Forman.

Oh, I see. It's no big deal

for you smart people who know everything.

But for us hillbillies,

well, we're lucky if we
know how to tie our shoes

and flush the toilet.

Okay, Mrs. Forman, please don't get upset.

Okay, here.

Drink some more Fudge.

Okay, so...

The constitution was ratified...

Oh, I know this.

1776.

Oh, you're thinking of the
declaration of independence.

See, the
constitution was...

I know what the constitution is.

Can you make Fudge?

What?

Then can it.

Okay, what if they ask
me about current events?

Tell me about Vietnam.

Okay, so Vietnam was an
illegal war which we lost.

What the hell are you teaching him?

You, come with me.

I'll teach you the real American history.

First of all, we didn't lose the war.

It was a tie.

Besides, they're grateful.

They have McDonald's now.

Here's my file.

It doesn't say "stooge" anywhere.

Oh, good picture, but that's no shocker.

But this is...

Aah!

I think the batteries are starting to go.

That one didn't hurt as much.

You better let me hold on to this file.

I don't leave any fingerprints,

thanks to my cool new black gloves.

Man, if only these shot webs.

Aren't those your mom's isotoners?

All right, guys, I gotta figure out

if I'm in trouble or not.

What the hell is going on in here?

I'm gonna go with you're in trouble.

Cadet kelso, do you
know what the penalty is

for breaking into the academy office?

No, sir, officer Kennedy, sir!

There are none,

because nobody's been
stupid enough to do it!

All right! You're first in your class.

Is that a dog training
collar around your neck?

Oh, um, you're probably gonna want this.

It's the red button.

Look, sir, I think you should know

that at the last police charity auction,

my family bought one of your
Christmas tree ornaments...

Santa driving a cop car.

Funniest thing on the tree. It was.

Anyway, please don't call my mom and dad.

Thanks.

What's your name?

They call me fez.

Officer Kennedy, sir, I broke in

to find out if I was
the stooge or not, sir.

You're not the stooge.
Johnson's the stooge.

Yes.

But you're the stooge now.

Okay, I think that we've
been reviewing long enough.

Let's see what you've learned.

I'll start you off with an easy one.

Where do you live?

Ame-dee-ca.

It's pronounced America.

That's what I
said. Ame-dee-ca.

America!

Ame-dee-ca.

Why do we celebrate the 4th of July?

Because we are damn glad not to be a bunch

of British tea-drinking
nancy-pants.

Nobody's gonna argue with that answer.

A-mer-I-ca!

A-me-dee-ca!

America!

Ame-dee-ca!

What was president

Dwight d. Eisenhower's
greatest achievement?

He led the allies to
victory in world war ii

and sent those jackbooted
Nazi bastards home

to cry in their Sauerkraut.

I didn't understand a word you said,

but I heard "nazi bastards,"
and that's good enough for me.

America!

Ame-dee-ca!

Look, there is no damn "d" in "america"!

Say my son's name.

Eric.

Great.

Now...

America.

Ame-dee-ca.

Just forget it.

Just say "united States."

United States...
Of ame-dee-ca.

Guys, I'm really screwed
down at the police academy.

Officer Kennedy told me
he's looking for any reason

to kick me out.

Okay, but did he say anything
about calling my parents?

I was so freaked out
that I completely blew

this exam this morning.

I'm sure you did fine.

Roy, the first question

was "stop in the name of the blank."

And I wrote "love."

God!

I don't care what they say, kelso.

Love is always the right answer.

So you screwed up a test, man.

You know what you have to do.

Yeah, yeah, study more next time.

What are you, Forman?

You gotta break in there
and change the answers.

I can't break in there again.

That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard.

That's why they'll never expect it, man.

Look, they don't know
you got a friend like me

to talk you into doing something
so fundamentally moronic.

That's true.

You know what? I'm in, too.

I know it's dangerous, but...

I just really like wearing that outfit.

Trust me, it'll work.

How do you think I got through chemistry?

Hey, you told me you
blackmailed the teacher

'cause you caught him
smoking up behind the gym.

Oh, yeah.

How do you think I got through biology?

Fez, relax. You're gonna pass the test.

No, this could be my
last day in the country.

We should probably make love.

What?

Don't worry. It'll be
over before you know it.

So, on the way back from the bathroom,

I got proposed to 3 times.

I must look more gorgeous than usual.

Jackie, the only reason
they want to marry you

is so they can stay in the country.

Jealous.

Okay. Here I go.

I'm here for my test.

Where do I sign in, or should I say,

where do I put my John hancock?

Actually, I will sign my name.

That's just a common expression.

I know so much history,

I just drop it into everyday conversation.

There is no test.

I just need to see that
you are who you say you are

and that you're in the country to be

with your wife Laurie Forman.

No test? So that's it?

I'm truly really a citizen
of this great country?

Just as soon as I stamp this paper.

Oh, this is great.

You and I should go celebrate.

Let's start out with a couple
of drinks and some lovemaking

and see where it goes from there.

I don't date married men.

Well, let's just say that as
soon as I get my green card,

I will be single.

Then you can explore the country of fez.

Hold on. Are you telling me

your marriage is a sham?

I'm telling you

your eyes are like Amber waves of grain.

You do realize I haven't stamped this yet.

Actually, I had not.

Oh, he looks happy.

Yeah, I bet he's doing great. Yeah.

Shouldn't you stamp my paper now?

I don't think so.

In a minute? Nope.

After lunch? Unh-unh.

Would you like me to stamp it?

Red, do you think I'm smart?

Oh, is that what we're gonna
do today, we're gonna fight?

Great news. I got my green card.

I am now officially a yankee doodle dandy.

So you passed the test, huh?

No, there was no test.

No test?

Oh, we're just as bad as Canada.

So, what happened?

Well, you know how sometimes
I come on a little strong

to the ladies?

You can be a little handsy.

It was touch-and-go
for a while,

but eventually, I won the
I.N.S. Lady over with my charm.

More like you cried until she felt bad

and stamped your papers.

Hey, tomato, potato- -
it's all the same thing.

Bottom line is I
have cha-dees-ma.

Charisma!

Yes,
cha-dees-ma.

Man, I love these gloves.

I wish there was some
diamond protected by lasers

I could steal.

Okay, I'm almost done.

I just gotta think of
one more misdemeanor.

Oh, breaking into the police academy.

All right, come on. Let's go.

How do you keep finding us?!

I'm wearing all black!

I sleep right next door.

What's the problem, trouble with the wife?

Shut up.

That's it. You're outta here.

Wait. I can explain.

Okay, this whole thing
started because I just...

I can't be the stooge.

Okay? I'm gonna be a dad soon,

and no kid is gonna look up to his dad

if his dad is the stooge.

Well, unless the kid's a stooge,

in which case I wouldn't love him anyway.

You're gonna be a father?

Who would breed with you?!

One night stand, both a little drunk.

Look, I know I messed up.

But can't you just... maybe...

Give me one more chance?

All right. Since you're gonna be a father,

I'm gonna let what happened here slide.

But just so you don't do this again,

I'm gonna let you in on a little secret.

There is no stooge.

What?

That's just a rumor we started

to get the cadets to work harder.

Also... there's no alligator in the lake.

Wait, wait, wait. If there's no stooge,

then how come our friend Roy told us

he got kicked out of the
academy for being a stooge?

Roy keene?

He didn't get kicked
out for being a stooge.

He got kicked out for
shooting the police horse.

Look, cadet, all you have to do

is work hard and you'll be fine.

Now you clean up this
mess and get outta here.

Well, I think we all learned
an important lesson here.

If you're in trouble

and your back's up against the wall,

just tell 'em you got a kid.

People are suckers for a baby.

That is a valuable lesson.

I think we should all reflect on that...

In the k-9 training room.

I call shock caller.

I call buttons.

Okay, miss smarty-pants.

How about... ooh.

Where was the famous tea party?

Boston.

Nope.

What?

Got it wrong. Sorry.

It's the Boston tea party.

No. It says right here it's
" the Boston tea party."

Oh.

Huh.

I'm gonna have a long island tea party.
