Whatever happened to predictability.
The milkman, the paperboy,evening tv?
How did I get delivered here?
Somebody tell me please!
This old world's confusing me.
Clouds as mean as you've ever seen
Ain't a bird who knows your tune.
Then a little voice inside you Whispers,
"Don't sell your dreams" , so soon
Everywhere you look,
everywhere you look(there's a heart)
A hand to hold on to.
Everywhere you look
everywhere you look(there's a face of)
Somebody who needs you.
Everywhere you look.
When you're lost out there and you're all alone.
A knight is waiting to carry you home.
Everywhere you look

We find Claire Tanner, Danny, DJ, and Stephanie in the front room. Claire
is about to leave...
Claire Tanner: If you need me, Im on the next
plane.
Danny: Aw, thank you, mom.
Claire: Okay.
DJ & Stephanie: Bye, Grandma.
Danny: Bye, mom.
Claire: Bye.
DJ & Stephanie: Bye.
Claire: Oh, my angels!
Stephanie: Grandma, dont leave!
Claire: I love you. Goodbye, sweetheart.
Stephanie: Goodbye, grandma.
Claire: Bye. Bye.
DJ, Steph, Danny: Bye
Claire leaves
Danny: Okay! Are we going to have fun or what? (DJ & Stephanie
frown) Hey, hey, hey! Lets see some smiles. Everything is going
to work out super great. Your uncle Jesse is moving in; my best friend Joey
is moving in, and you know what that means... That means that you two are
going to get to be roommates. Isnt that exciting?
Stephanie: I can wear all DJs clothes!
DJ: Do I have to share my room with her?
Danny: Honey, its going to be just like having a slumber party.
DJ: Yeah, with only one guest... who never leaves!
Jesse enters
Jesse: Hey! Look alive! Uncle Jesses here!
DJ & Stephanie: Uncle Jesse!
Jesse: (imitating the girls) Uncle Jesse! (in his normal
voice) All right! Hello! DJ, how
you doing? That tooth come in yet?
DJ: Nah.
Jesse: Thats okay; one less to brush.
Danny: Hey, Jesse!
Jesse: Danno!
Danny: You missed breakfast; where have you been?
Jesse: I know; sorry. Last night, after my gig at the smash club,
I go for a cruise on my Harley, right? Nest thing I know, Im in Reno.
It was dark - who would have known? Then, I happened to wander into this
show, Razzle Dazzle 87 - much better than Razzle Dazzle 86, by
the way. And I see this incredible showgirl Vanessa, right? Our eyes meet.
(Danny looks at the girls, concerned at what they might be hearing)
Ba-boom, this lightning bolt of passion shoots across the casino. Turns
out, Vanessa is on her way to the Philippines to do a Bob Hope special, and
is dying for one last night of good old American .
Danny: Food, food! She was hungry, right?
Jesse: Oh yeah. She was starving. Only we never got a chance to, uh,
"eat," because she had to turn her feathers in.
Stephanie: Uncle Jesse, lets play Ballerina.
Jesse: Uncle Jesse doesnt want to play ballerina.
Stephanie: Yes he does...
Jesse: No he doesnt...
Stephanie: Yes he does...
Jesse: No he doesnt!
Stephanie: (pretending to cry) Yes he does.
Jesse: How do you play ballerina?
Stephanie: Dance!
Jesse: Okay, that was fun.
Joey enters carrying a pile of laundry, and makes a noise, imitating a
trumpet
DJ: Hi, Joey.
Joey: Hi, Danny.
Danny: Oh, Joey, buddy. This is the best; youre moving in!
(Danny takes the pile of laundry from Joey)
Joey: Thanks, Danny. This works out so perfect. I move into a place
with a washing machine on the exact day I run out of clean clothes. (Danny
drops the pile of laundry, which he now knows to be dirty)
Jesse, long time no see. Now be honest. Did you ever think wed
end up being roommates?
Jesse: Not once.
Joey: I love this guy. Danny, theres no way all my stuff will
fit into a room this tiny.
Danny: Joey, this is not a tiny room. This is a large alcove. In fact,
this is a large alcove that youre living in for free.
Joey: You know, now that I take a close look at it, its enormous...
normous... normous... We are gonna have so much fun, arent
we, kids? (imitates Popeyes laugh)
DJ: Do you think we could catch grandma at the airport?
Danny and Jesse are walking in the upstairs hallway. They enter Jesses
new room...
Danny: Nice, huh? Roomy. (Jesse looks at the pink bunnies on the
wall) Not overly masculine.
Jesse: Oh golly, its swell. You know what would look great over
here by the window? Barbies dream house.
Danny: Weve got one. Look, Jesse, I just want you to know that
having you and Joey here really means a lot to me. Just knowing somebodys
here who cares about the girls. You know, theyre so happy youre
here. Oh, God bless you! (Danny hugs Jesse)
Jesse: Youre hugging me in a room with pink bunnies.
Danny: Oh, sorry. Im an emotional guy. Okay, lets face
it. Im a lean, mean, hugging machine.
Jesse: Okay. Danny, listen; Pam was my big sister, and I loved her
very much, and I love
your kids, and Im happy to do what I can. (Danny hugs Jesse again)
Aah, youre hugging
me again. Now listen; you and me, well sit down; well set aside
a special time for hugging.
But not now. (Jesse opens the closet, and sees that the closet rack is
too low) Oh great, I live
in Websters room!
DJ and Stephanie are in their new bedroom, which they now have to
share...
DJ: Rule number one : never touch my stuff. You should be taking notes.
Rule number two :
never set foot in my half of the room.
Stephanie: How do I get out of here?
DJ: Easy. You jump off the window and climb down the tree.
Stephanie: I dont think so.
DJ: Suit yourself.
Stephanie: Ill find a way out... (Stephanie climes onto the
window curtain)Danny and Jesse enter the room
Danny: Stephanie, what are you doing
Stephanie: Just hanging around.
Danny: Come on, honey, get down from there.
Joey enters
Joey: (seeing the yellow barrier tied across the room) All
right! Limbo. Dika-laka-puka... dika-laka-puka... dika-laka-puka... no way.
DJ: This is a nightmare.
Danny: Uh, DJ, honey, I told you everything is gonna work out super
great. Im sorry. Ive got to get down to the station. Try to watch
my sports report this afternoon. Today starts my special two-part series
entitled, "Boxers : Highly Skilled Athletes or Bullies in
Shorts?"
Jesse and Joey are in Michelles room, Michelle is
crying
Joey: (in a babys voice) Oh, Michelle, little baby waby.
Whats the matter? Uncle Jesse, what are we gonna do?
Jesse: First, we stop talking like a munchkin. (Michelle continues
to cry) Hey, shut up!
Joey: Wait, Ill handle this. Im a comic; its my
non-paying job to cheer people up. (imitating Kermit the Frog) Uh,
Michelle, its me, Kermit the frog. Now, uh, you dont want to
cry, do ya? (Michelle continues to cry) Wait, shell love it.
I call it, "The Sprinkler." (Joey drinks water, and starts to spit it
out, like a sprinkler. Meanwhile, Jesse grabs a little umbrella
and covers Michelle) Tough room. Jesse, what if she needs to be... uh...
changed?
Jesse: Check it out. Go.
Joey: (looking at the inside of the diaper) We have a winner.
Now what?
Jesse: Joseph. Put yourself in her place. What would you want done?
Joey: Ive never changed a diaper.
Jesse: Me neither. At least you touched one. All right, look out;
Ill show you how its done.(to Michelle) Come here child.
You believe this guy? (to Joey) All right, make yourself useful.
Joey: Ill take the south end.
Jesse: Good.
Jesse and Joey walk out of the room, heading down the stairs, into the
front room, and then into the kitchen
Joey & Jesse: Step one, step two, step one, step two, step one,
step two, step one, step two.
Jesse: Okay, good. Look out. Okay, keep it coming.
Stephanie: (in the front room) Showtime!
Joey: (in the kitchen) Where will we put the baby?
Jesse: Where will we put the child?
Joey: Uh, the pot, over here.
Jesse: Whoa... whoa... whoa... whoa... whoa... whoa! Joey, this is
a living thing. You dont stick it in a pot; use a meat rack.
Joey: Im an idiot.
Jesse: Uh, come on.
Joey: Okay.
Jesse: All right, good.
Joey: All right, great.
Jesse: Settle down here; here we go.
Stephanie: Are you gonna cook Michelle?
Joey: Were changing her diaper.
Stephanie: Oh, then how do you roast a turkey?
Jesse: Steph! Joey and I are busy. Joey, strip her. All right, careful
there. Youre in control. All right, slide it off and... ugh!
Joey: Uh... uh... (puts the dirty diaper into a plastic bowl and
covers the bowl)
Jesse: Good thinking, Joey, keep it fresh.
Joey: Okay, hold her up; Ill clean her off.
Jesse: Good idea. Come on, Michelle, all right. (Joey tries to
shoot water at Michelle to clean her off...) Youre missing!
Youre missing! Youre missing! All right now, come on, gently
now, gently now, gently... There we go. This is great; we should be mothers.
Joey: Oh, yeah.
Jesse: All right, lets dry her up.
Joey: Okay. Fan her. Fan her fanny. Fan her fanny.
Joey: You know these babies have it made? I would kill for this kind
of service.
Jesse: All right, diapers.
Joey: Diaper... diaper
Jesse: Where are diapers?
Joey: Diapers...
Jesse: Diapers...
Joey: Diapers, diapers...
Jesse: Diapers...
Joey: (holding up a roll of paper towels) Hey, super absorbent.
Jesse: Bring it over. Okay, now what?
Joey: Okay, spin her.
Jesse: Spin her.
Joey: Spin her.
Jesse: Spin her. All right, now, wrap her up in this, come on. Put
her right in here. Its too easy.
Joey: Works for me.
Stephanie: Not bad, but next time try these. (Stephanie holds the
diapers)
Jesse: Steph, why did you wait till now to give us the diapers?
Stephanie: Nobody asked me.
Jesse and Joey are in the front room. Danny has just come home from
work...
Danny: Hey guys, howd it go today with - whoa! What happened?
Whats with all the dirty baby clothes?
The doorbell rings
Joey: Im sorry, but every time we fed her, shed drool,
or dribble, or spit up.
Jesse: Your babys a pig.
Jesse opens the door, and Vanessa is sitting in the
doorway
Vanessa: Hi, Jesse.
Jesse: Vanessa, have mercy. I thought you were supposed to go to the
Philippines with Bob Hope.
Vanessa: Oh, well, I am, but the airports fogged in. So, is
that offer to stay with you any time still good?
Jesse: Oh, its more than good. Its... uh...
amazing!
Stephanie enters
Stephanie: Hi, uncle Jesse. Ready for more ballerina?
Jesse: Uh... well play later, okay?
Stephanie: Okay... its later! Catch me! Ohh!
Jesse: Listen; why dont you go upstairs and play ballerina with
your big sister.
Stephanie: I cant. She moved out.
Danny: Stephanie, honey, what do you mean, "She moved out"?
Stephanie: Shes gone. She rolled up her crepe paper and took
off.
Danny: Okay, everybody follow me.
Danny, Joey, Jesse, and Stephanie are in DJs bedroom
Danny: You lost my daughter? I went to work for seven hours, and you
lost thirty-three percent of my children? Joey, call the police. Jesse, start
driving around our neighborhood. Im gonna call up DJs friends.
Stephanie: And Ill go get DJ.
Danny: Stephanie, honey.
Stephanie: Yes, daddy?
Danny: Sweetheart, do you know where DJ is?
Stephanie: Uh-huh.
Danny: Why didnt you say something sooner?
Stephanie: Nobody asked me.
Danny, Jesse, and Joey go into the garage, where DJ is on the telephone
with Kimmy Gibbler
Danny: DJ, can I talk to you?
DJ: (on the telephone) Kimmy, hang on. (to Danny) Im
talking to Kimmy Gibbler. She called me on her own phone from her own room.
She has three sisters.
Danny: DJ, you dont want to live in the garage. Its filthy...
its stuffy...
DJ: You want some fresh air? (DJ opens the garage door)
Danny: (in a firm voice) Donna Jo, I want you back inside right
now this instant. (in a
milder voice) Is that okay?
DJ: No thank you, dad. (on the telephone) So Kimmy, where were
we?
Jesse: (to Danny) Nice job, dad. Youve been reading
Cosbys book?
Joey: Cosby? Ill handle this. (imitating Bill Cosby, talking
to DJ) Hello there, small child-
like person. Mmha... ha... ha... If you move back into the house, you can
have a big, juicy
bowl of jello. Mmha... ha... ha... ha... ha... ha.
DJ: (on the telephone) No, Kimmy, thats not really him.
Ill call you later.
Stephanie enters the garage
Stephanie: Daddy, the babys crying. Shes got that thirsty
look in her eyes.
Stephanie goes back upstairs again
Danny: Okay, honey. Ill be right up. Joey, would you mind warming
up the babys bottle?
Joey: Well, not at all. Although with this particular baby, it might
be simpler just to pour the formula directly into the diaper. Well, think
about it.(Joey leaves to warm up the babys bottle)
Jesse: All right, DJs all set and I got Vanessa upstairs waiting,
so best of luck to both of you.
Danny: No, look, Jesse, look; I got to go check on the baby; wont
you just stay here with DJ? Talk to her; Ill be right back. Your her
uncle - try to be parental, or something.
Danny walks upstairs
Jesse: Parental. Thats cool. I can be parental. I got parents.
(Jesse taps DJs shoulder)
DJ: Can I help you?
Jesse: Yes. You can move your little body back in the house. Look,
DJ, I dont blame you for wanting your own room. But you got to understand;
this worlds not a perfect place. Bruce Willis has a record deal. But
then a Vanessa shows up at your door, and it all evens out. You know what
Im saying?
DJ: Yeah.
Jesse: Good, so youll move back in?
DJ: Nah.
Jesse: Nah! All right, Ill speak the language you understand.
Five bucks if youll move back.
DJ: Fifty.
Jesse: Ten.
DJ: Forty-nine.
Jesse: A buck? You went down a buck?
DJ: Okay, its back up to fifty.
Jesse: All right, my final offer : twenty bucks.
DJ: Twenty-one. Vanessas waiting...
Danny, Joey, Jesse, and Stephanie are in the front room. Joey is putting
his things away in the alcove
Jesse: All right, DJ is moving back in.
Danny: She is? Thats fantastic! What did you do?
Jesse: I have a very special way with kids.
Jesse starts to go upstair
Danny: Uh, Jesse, hang on. Vanessas not upstairs.
Jesse comes back downstairs
Jesse: Wheres Vanessa?
Danny: Well, uh...
Stephanie: Shes history.
Jesse covers Stephanies ears
Jesse: What the hell did you do with Vanessa?
Danny: I didnt do anything with her. I just told her that with
three little girls in the house, I thought it would be better is she slept
on the couch. And she left.
Jesse: You hate me, dont you.
DJ enters the room
Danny: DJ.
Jesse: Whoa... whoa... whoa... whoa... whoa... whoa... whoa. Vanessa
is gone. The deal is off. I want my money back.
Danny: What money?
DJ: The money uncle Jesse paid me to move back in.
Danny: Thats your special way with children - you buy them off?
Jesse: It works. Kid, money.
DJ: Fine, I have other sources of income. Ill go back to my
new room and have a garage sale.
Danny: DJ, wait. DJ. (to Jesse) Here, take Michelle. (to
Stephanie) Come with me, honey.
Jesse: (looking at Michelle) Dont even think about it.
Danny, DJ, and Stephanie are in the kitchen
Danny: DJ, honey, I cant let you have a garage sale.
DJ: What if I give you ten percent of the profits?
Danny: DJ, come here. Cant you just try sharing your room with
your sister? Your mom was always so good at this stuff. Id come home
from work, and everything was always perfect. DJ, how would mom have handled
this?
DJ: She would have caught me before I moved into the garage. Mom knew
everything I did before I did it.
Danny: What is it, honey?
DJ: Its just not fair. First, I lose my mom; then, grandma leaves;
now, I even lose my own room? Everything keeps disappearing.
Danny: I know exactly how you feel. And I know how much you girls
miss your mother, because I miss her too, very much. But you still got me.
Stephanie: You got me, too.
Danny: You got Michelle, and you have your uncle Jesse, and Joey.
DJ, were still a family, and now is when we really need to stick together.
DJ, you and I, we go back a long time - ten years. The ten happiest years
of my life. So look; its up to you. Either you move back inside, or
all five of us are moving into the garage. But nothing is gonna break up
this team.
DJ: Ill move back in.
Danny: I love you, angel. You too, little ballerina.
Jesse in the front room, talking to Michelle. Joey is in the alcove putting
his things away
Jesse: Hey, Michelle. Michelle. Can you say, "Uncle Jesse"?
Michelle: Ah-ah.
Jesse: Thats it; you said it. You said, "Uncle Jesse." (Danny,
DJ, and Stephanie enter) Starting tomorrow, you use the toilet just like
the rest of us.
DJ: Good news. Uncle Jesse, our deals back on. (Jesse starts
to take out money) Its okay; Ill put it on your tab.
Jesse: All right.
Danny: Aw. Is this great, or what? These girls are crazy about you.
Jesse: Oh, sure. I dance around; I give them money.
Michelle: Uh... uh...
Jesse: Now whats the problem?
Danny: Oh, theres no problem. Shes singing. Michelle loves
music.
Joey: Music? Ill handle this... (Joey starts to sing)
Ooh... Flinstones... meet the Flinstones...
Joey & Jesse: (singing) Theyre a modern stone-age
family...
Jesse: Everybody sing along!
Everybody: (singing) From the... town of Bedrock, theyre
a page right out of history.
Jesse: Lets take a walk.
Everybody: (singing) Lets ride... with the family down
the street. Through the... courtesy of Freds two feet.
