The Nanny

Oh, it's a valentine from Ma.

How do you know?

Look, there's a Lee Press-On Nail stuck in the truffle

So, Fran, how come you don't like Valentine's Day

Oh, you know, everybody makes such a big dea

about it being the most romantic day of the year

Meanwhile, I think it's very commercialized, and I just don't buy into it

Oh! I got a date for Valentine's Day!

Oh, you know, it's the most romantic day of the year

Oh, what is it with girls and Valentine's Day

They send you those stupid cards,

and then they expect you to, like, talk to them and ask them out

Well, I'm not doing it.

No one sent you a card? -No.

How about you, Tommy?

Well, we're friends and stuff,

but I don't think I should be sending him a valentine

No.

Honey, I... I meant, do you have a valentine

Oh, well, there is a girl that I sort of like, but I think she might b

a little bit out of my league.

She is.

So, Fran, who's your date with?

Oh, well, remember that really cute guy, Jeff, the cop that I went out with once

Oh, was that the date you had when I was in the third grad

or the one you had when I was in the fourth

You wanna make it to the fifth?

Knock-knock. Happy Monday before Valentine's Day, Mr. Sheffield

Care for a chocolate?

That's caramel. That's nougat. That's mint.

How do you know what's in them? I'm psychic

Don't turn them over.

Miss Fine, could this sudden exuberance for the holida

have something to do with the fact that you actually have a date this year

Oh, please, come on, what do you... Yeah.

What are you doing for the holiday? -Well, I'll be working

I don't go in for all this Valentine's Day racket. It's... It's so commercial

I used to feel that way, too.

In fact, not 10 minutes ago.

What a difference a date makes

Good morning, everyone, isn't it a fabulous day

Oh, look, Miss Babcock's even in the spirit of it

You bet I am.

They finally evicted that old lady in the apartment next to mine

We started breaking through the bedroom wall this morning

A bigger bedroom.

Aren't we being a glutton for punishment?

Oh, don't you have something to wax?

I put that question to you.

Mr. Sheffield, I hate to think about you sitting here all by yourself

You should be with someone you love on Valentine's Day

Well, I appreciate your concern, Miss Fine,

but truthfully, there's no one I care enough about right no

to spend Valentine's Day with.

Oh, good news. You got the day off.

You know, you're never gonna meet someone unless you take a chance

It doesn't matter who it is. Just put yourself out there

Well, I suppose there is that lady from the Shubert Organization

Her? -Her?

Oh, the redhead, sir?

If she ever gets those roots done. -Quite a figure, eh, Niles

She should lipo her butt.

Oh, no. She's lovely.

It's a very good choice.

Yeah, you know, the thing is you just do something romantic, ask someone out

The redhead is fine.

With that tuchus, I'm sure she likes ice cream

Fran, look at all these people. We're never gonna get on the first bus

Oh, don't worry. I'll take care of that.

Can you believe that gorgeous two-bedroom apartment on the corner ther

for only 400 bucks a month?

Oh, Val, could you believe how stupid those people... Val

There is no apartment, is there?

Good, Val. Oh, -I knew. I knew.

Cause $400 a month is really good for two bedrooms

Did it have a French... -No, Val!

Gee, I hope I have exact change. Oh, what's this

Looky, a Valentine's card.

"Dear Miss Fine, won't you be my valentine?

"Meet me at the Sutton Ice Cream Parlor at 3:00

"on the most romantic day of the year."

"Love, your secret admirer."

Oh, an anonymous valentine signed "Secret admirer.

Who's it from?

Val, you know, there was a wood-burning fireplace in that apartment

Val, look, it says, "Dear Miss Fine."

This is either from Mr. Sheffield,

or our old high school principal hasn't gotten over m

wearing that tube top to Earth Day.

Come on, Fran, Mr. Sheffield sent you a valentine

That's unbelievable. -I know, isn't...

No, it's not.

I'm the one that put the whole idea in his head

I'm the one that told him to take the girl with the big bun out for ice cream

Listen, Flabbio,

I want to be alone with Maxwell tonight.

What's it gonna cost me to make you disappear

Try 50 bucks. -Done.

Okay.

No, it didn't work. I'm still here.

Oh, Miss Fine,

would it be too forward of me to say, "Whoa, baby girl"

You like? Mmm-hmm. You know, this is the most fabulous dress I own

I only wear it when I have a very hot date.

You know, Mr. Sheffield asked me out for Valentine's Day

That's impossible.

Why does everybody find that so hard to believe

Well, it's just that he always tells me everything

Don't you mean you read his mail, listen at the door..

and eavesdrop on the intercom?

Well, for backup.

I can't believe he left me out of the loop.

I don't care for this at all.

Niles, any calls for me while I was out? -Maybe yes, maybe no

Oh, Miss Fine, that is one sexy outfit.

Oh, well, you know, I've got a hot date.

Well, he's gonna be a very lucky man.

Isn't someone being Mr. Optimism?

Fran, I need you to help me think of an excuse

I've made two dates for Valentine's Day, and I've got to break one

Honey, shame on you.

You know how many girls are out there starving

Now, you're gonna finish those two dates,

and I don't want to hear another word about it

Huh. Can you believe that kid?

I should have two dates on Valentine's Day.

What time are you meeting Mr. Sheffield at Sutton's

3:00. -Hmm.

And what time are you meeting Jeff at Dominique's

2:30. Oh, my God, Jeff! What's this for?

Well, you can't keep them both.

It'll take you 20 minutes to get across town

and no one can eat a full five-course meal in under 10 minutes

You obviously have never broken the Yom Kippur fast at my mother's house

Oh, hi, Jeff.

Thank you. You, too. Just lucky.

What? -Well, weren't you gonna say

great dress, good to see you,

and where'd you ever find a purse to match those shoes

Let's order. -All right, now, Fran.

Yes? -You know, I got the whole afternoon of

'cause I thought we'd have a nice, leisurely, romantic lunch

Absolutely. Waiter!

How long does it take to make the capellini

I recommend the tri-color fusilli con fruta del mare..

You know, that even takes too long to say.

Sghettis. Vamatos. Vamatos.

Fran, do you have some other place to be?

No, of course not. There's no place I'd rather be than right here with you

Oh, one last kiss

Give me one last kiss

It never felt like this

No, never felt like this

You know I need your love

Oh, oh, oh!

Oh, give me one last kiss

Can I get you anything while you wait? -Oh, please, I'm stuffed

Oh, I see you've got a minimum.

All right. You might as well bring me the Mount McKinley

You know, you don't have to order. We're not that busy

Oh, that's okay. I wouldn't want you to get into trouble

No. Really, it's okay. -Rules are rules, honey
