Episode18
I don't believe it!
�Ҽ�ֱ�������ţ�
What's wrong?
��ô�ˣ�
Carter Boswell!
Carter Boswell��
Who's Carter Boswell?
˭��Carter Boswell��
He's running for the school board.
�����ھ�ѡ����У���ᶭ�¡�
The election's next month.
ѡ�پ����¸��¡�
What's wrong with wanting to be on the school board?
���������У������ʲô����
Nothing.
û��ʲô��
But he wants to cut the school budget!
����������ѧУ��Ԥ�㣡
Maybe it needs cutting.
Ҳ������Ҫ�����ء�
Cutting the budget is fine,
����Ԥ���Ǻõģ�
but he wants to do it
����Ҫ������
by cutting all the cultural programs.
����ȡ�����е��Ļ����
No music, no dance,
û�����֡�û���赸��
no concert, no stage presentations.
û�����ֻ� ��û����̨���ݡ�
Why does he want to do that?
Ϊʲô��Ҫ��ô���أ�
He says it's to save the taxpayers' money,
��˵����Ϊ��Ҫ��ʡ��˰�˵�Ǯ��
and I think he believes
������������
that the taxpayers will vote for him
��˰�˻�Ͷ��һƱ��
if he spends less on the cultural programs.
�����������Ļ���ϼ��ٿ�֧�Ļ���
He's probably right.
��Ҳ���ǶԵġ�
Lots of people want their taxes
������ϣ�����ǽɵ�˰��
used for new books
��������������
and a new paint job in the schoolrooms.
������������ҡ�
Maybe some of us would like to pay a little bit more
Ҳ������֮����һЩ��Ը��ึһ��Ǯ��
and keep the cultural programs for our kids.
�Ա�Ϊ���ǵĺ��ӱ����Ļ����
Well, I'm not sure. Ellen.
�ޣ� �����϶���Ellen��
I hear it from my patients.
���Ǵ��ҵIJ����Ƕ�������Щ�ġ�
Lots of people are tired of higher taxes.
�����˶�����˰���ᷳ��
I know,
��֪����
but if Boswell wins
���Ǽ���BoswellӮ�ˣ�
he'll be an important decision-maker
������Ϊһ����Ҫ�ľ����ߣ�
on the school board,
������������
and he doesn't know anything
����������֪
about our children's education.
�������Ǻ��ӵĽ�����
Who's running against him?
˭������ѡ��
Nobody. That's the problem.
û���ˡ�������������ڡ�
Well, it sounds to me like Carter Boswell
�ޣ�����������Carter Boswell
is going to win this seat on the board.
�ȵ�����У���ᶭ�µı����ˡ�
Oh, not if I can stop him!
�ޣ�Ҫ��������ֹ�������ͱ��룡
And how are you going to stop him?
������ôȥ��ֹ���أ�
I don't know.
�Ҳ�֪����
Maybe I'll run against him.
Ҳ����������ѡ��
Well, you've got my vote.
Ŷ������һ��Ͷ���Ʊ��
I'm serious, Philip.
��������ģ�Philip��
Why shouldn't I run?
Ϊʲô�Ҳ��þ�ѡ��
Why shouldn't you run for what, Mom?
Ϊʲô� 㲻�þ�ѡʲô�����裿
Your mother is thinking of
������������
running for the school board.
��ѡ����У���ᶭ�¡�
Hey, that's terrific, Mom!
�ˣ�̫���ˣ����裡
Against Carter Boswell?
��Carter Boswell��ѡ��
Great!
̫���ˣ�
Well, if I run for office,
�ţ������ҳ�����ѡ��ְ��
the voters will have a clear choice.
ͶƱ�˿�������ȷ��ѡ��
I stand for everything Boswell doesn't.
�Ҵ���Boswell�����ɵ���Щ������
I think a lot of people will vote for you
����ܶ��˻�ͶƱ֧����
against Boswell, Ellen.
��Boswell�Կ���Ellen��
I'll vote for you.
�һ�Ͷ���Ʊ��
Will you help me if I do run?
��������ľ�ѡ��������æ��
Absolutely.
��Ȼ��
The trouble is
������
it takes a little bit of money to run a campaign.
��ѡ���Ҫ��һЩǮ��
I think you can make a difference, Ellen.
�Ҿ�������Է���Ӱ������Ellen��
And in a short campaign
������һ�����ݵľ�ѡ
you wouldn't need as much money.
����Ҫ������Ǯ��
You know something, Ellen?
��֪��һ������Ellen��
Why not give the people of Riverdale a clear choice?
Ϊʲô����Riverdale��������һ����ȷ��ѡ���أ �
I'm with you.
��֧���㡣
You can make a difference.
��ᷢ��Ӱ������
Come in.
�����
Mr. Maxwell?
����Maxwell������
Yes, Charles Maxwell.
�ǵģ�����Charles Maxwell��
My name is Ellen Stewart.
�ҽ�Ellen Stewart��
Hello.
���ޡ�
Please, sit down.
������
You asked to see me.
��Ҫ����ҡ�
What would you like to see me about?
������ʲô���£�
I'd like your help.
��Ҫ�����æ��
Well,
�ޣ�
I'm editor of the most influential newspaper in Riverdale.
����Riverdale����Ӱ�����ı�ֽ�ı༭��
Actually, it's the only newspaper.
��ʵ�ϣ�����Ψһ�ı�ֽ��
A lot of people would like my help.
������Ҫ�Ұ�����
Do you have a story?
����ʲô���Ź����أ�
I'm planning to run for the school board.
�Ҵ��㾺ѡ����У���ᶭ�¡�
Against Carter Boswell?
��Carter Boswell���̨��
Yes.
�ǵġ�
Well, that is news.
�ޣ�����Ǹ����š�
Will you announce that I'm running?
��ᷢ���ҲμӾ�ѡ����Ϣ��
Sure.
��Ȼ��
But I need some information.
������ҪһЩ���ϡ�
Of course.
�ǵ�Ȼ��
Why will the voters vote for you against Boswell,
Ϊʲôѡ���ͶƱ֧�����Boswell�Կ��أ�
Mrs. Stewart?
Stewart̫̫��
Because I care.
��Ϊ�ҹ��ġ�
"Vote for Ellen Stewart. She cares."
��ͶEllen StewartһƱ�������ġ���
Not a bad slogan.
�����ı��
But what do you care about?
�������ʲô�أ�
Well, I care about the children of our town.
�ޣ��ҹ����������ϵĺ����ǡ�
I don't want them to grow up
�Ҳ�ϣ�������dzɳ��ڼ䣬
without cultural programs in our school.
���ǵ�ѧУ��û���Ļ����
Do you have a plan?
���мƻ���
I want our children to learn
��Ҫ������ѧϰ��
more than reading, writing, and arithmetic.
���Ķ���д������������Ķ�����
I want to keep the after-school programs--
��Ҫ������Щ��������
the music, the concerts.
���֡����ֻᡣ
It's not a bad plan.
���Ǹ������ļƻ���
But who's going to pay for all of this?
��˭��Ϊ��Щ��Ǯ�أ�
We are.
����ѽ��
The citizens of Riverdale, of course.
��Ȼ��Riverdale�Ĺ���
I plan to get help
�Ҵ�����ȡ
from the businessmen and the corporations of Riverdale.
Riverdale�����˺���ҵ���֧�֡�
That's fair enough.
��ܹ�ƽ��
Exactly what do you want from me, Mrs. Stewart?
�㾿��������ʲôҪ��Stewart̫̫��
You don't know me.
�㲻��ʶ�ҡ�
I can't expect you to take my side against Boswell.
�Ҳ���������վ������һ�����Կ�Boswell��
But I do need some publicity
������ҪһЩ������
so that the people of our town
���������������
know that I'm running for office
֪�������ھ�ѡ��ְ��
and that I care about our children.
����֪���ҹ������ǵĺ��ӡ�
Fair enough.
�ܹ�ƽ��
I certainly can print the news.
�ҵ�Ȼ���Կ����������š�
And you are now making news.
�������ھ����ڴ������š�
Here are the fliers, hot off the press!
�������ˣ��ո�ӡ�����ģ�
Looks good.
�������ܺá�
Simple.
�����ˡ�
Right over here, Grandpa.
�뵽��������үү��
You fold the fliers.
����ߡ������
Richard and I will put them into the envelopes.
�Һ�Richard�����ǷŽ��ŷ⡣
We finished addressing over three hundred envelopes.
����д�����ٶ���ŷ��ַ�ˡ�
Need another box?
��Ҫ��һ��������
Good work, gang.
���úܺã������ǡ�
Hi, this is Mike Johnson.
�ˣ�����Mike Johnson��
Can I speak with Mr. or Mrs. Anderson?
�ҿ��Ը�Anderson������̫̫˵����
Thanks.
лл��
Mr. Nelson.
Nelson������
Hi. This is Robbie Stewart.
������Robbie Stewart��
Did you know
��֪��
my mother is running for the school board?
��ĸ��ѡ����У���ᶭ����
Yes, Miss Kim, Ellen Stewart.
�ǵģ�KimС�㣬��Ellen Stewart��
"She cares."
�������ġ���
Oh, see you at the polls.
�ޣ���ͶƱ������
Certainly.
��Ȼ��
I'll give her your best wishes,
�һ�ת�������ף����
Mr. Nelson.
Nelson������
Hi, this is Mike Johnson.
�ˣ�����Mike Johnson��
Can I speak with Mr. or Mrs. Burns?
�ҿ��Ը�Burns������̫̫ͨ����
Thank you.
лл��
We have done so much
���������������
in such a short amount of time.
����ô�̵�ʱ���ڡ�
I can't believe it!
�Ҽ�ֱ�������ţ�
Wait till Philip comes home and sees our progress.
������Philip�����������ǽ�չʱ�ķ�Ӧ�ɣ�
Everyone saw the story in the Riverdale newspaper.
ÿ���˶��ѿ���Riverdale��ֽ�ϵ����š�
Mr. Maxwell was very kind
Maxwell�����ܺ��ģ�
to print my announcement.
��������������ѡ����Ϣ��
It helps enormously.
��������ܴ�
Everybody in Riverdale reads his paper.
Riverdale��ÿ���˶������ı�ֽ��
Your photo in it helped, too.
���ڱ�ֽ�ϵ���ƬҲ�а�����
Thanks to you, Richard,
лл�㣬Richard��
it's a good picture.
����һ�ź���Ƭ��
Well, hi, all.
�ޣ��ˡ�
Hi, Dad.
��ã��ְ֡�
Hello, darling.
���ޣ��װ��ġ�
May I ... may I help?
���ܡ������ܰ���æ��
Licking envelopes.
ճ�ŷ⡣
I fold the fliers.
��ߡ������
We stuff them.
����װ������
And I lick the envelopes.
���Ҿ�ճ�ŷ��ޡ�
Hey, everybody,
�ˣ�������ţ�
Mrs. Greenberg is on the phone.
Greenberg̫̫��绰����
She says Carter Boswell is on the TV right now--
��˵Carter Boswell�������ڵ������ء���
doing a commercial.
��������档
What channel?
�ĸ�Ƶ����
Five.
5�š�
Five?
5�ţ�
... and if you ask what I care about, I'll tell you.
���������������ҹ���ʲô���ҿ��Ը������ǡ�
I care about the school buildings in need of paint.
�ҹ���ѧУ�Ľ�������Ҫ��ˢ��
I care about more lockers for the teachers.
�ҹ��Ľ�ʦҪ�и���Ĵ����
I care about new fixtures in the hallways--
�ҹ������ȵ��µƾߡ���
not music or dancing or entertainment.
���������֡��赸�������֡�
I care about the practical things.
�ҹ���ʵ�õ����
If you do, vote for me, Carter Boswell.
��������ͬ�У���Ͷ��һƱ��Carter Boswell��
A lot of people will agree with him.
�����˻���ͬ����
I told you.
�Ҹ��߹����ˡ�
Too bad kids can't vote.
��ϧС������ͶƱ��
It's our school, but we can't vote.
�������ǵ�ѧУ����������ȴ����ͶƱ��
There are people in favor of the cultural programs, Mom.
�������������Ļ���ģ����衣
There are, Ellen.
һ���У�Ellen��
Don't be upset by Boswell's commercial.
��ҪΪ��Boswell�Ĺ������ġ�
You have to go on television, too.
��ҲӦ���ϵ��ӡ�
Boswell's a powerful speaker.
Boswell�Ǹ��б�ŵ���˵�ҡ�
You can be, too.
��Ҳ��������
Your ideas are good ones.
����뷨�ܺá�
I don't know.
�Ҳ�֪����
I'm not sure I'm up to it.
�Ҳ��ܿ϶����Ƿ�����������
... my slogan is "I care."
�����ҵĿں��ǡ��ҹ��ġ���
I care about people, not things.
�ҹ����ˣ������Ƕ�����
Vote for me, Ellen Stewart.
��Ͷ�ҡ���Ellen StewartһƱ��
I care.
�ҹ��ġ�
How was it?
����
You were terrific!
������̫���ˣ�
Can I see it?
�ҿ��Կ���
Sure.
��Ȼ���ԡ�
Hello. My name is Ellen Stewart,
���Ǻã��ҽ�Ellen Stewart��
and I'm running for the open seat on the school board.
�����ھ�ѡ����У�����ϯ�Ρ�
My slogan is "I care."
�ҵĿں��ǡ��ҹ��ġ���
What does the word care mean?
��ν�����ġ���ָʲô�أ�
... I care about people, not things.
�����ҹ����ˣ������Ƕ�����
Vote for me, Ellen Stewart.
��Ͷ�ҡ���Ellen StewartһƱ��
I care.
�ҹ��ġ�
I like it,
�Ҿ��ò�����
but now what?
����һ����ô�죿
How can we possibly get it on so Riverdale
��������������Riverdale����
will see it and hear it?
�������������أ�
Leave it to me.
����������ɡ�
... I mean that when I say "I care",
�����ҵ���˼�ǵ���˵���ҹ��ġ�ʱ��
I care about people, not things.
�ҹ��ĵ����˶����Ƕ�����
Vote for me, Ellen Stewart.
��Ͷ�ҡ���Ellen StewartһƱ��
I care.
�ҹ��ġ�
What happened?
������ʲô�£�
Mom is now on television
�������ڳ����ڵ�����
in every appliance store in Riverdale,
��Riverdale��ÿһ�ҵ����У�
except Hamlin's.
Hamlin�ĵ���⡣
He's a Boswell voter.
����Boswell��֧���ߡ�
That's a brilliant idea, Richard!
������̫���ˣ�Richard��
You inherited your father's brains.
��̳����㸸�ĺ�ͷ�ԡ�
We got our brains from you, Dad.
���Ǵ����Ƕ��̳��˺�ͷ�ԣ��ְ֡�
And guess what?
���Dz���ô�ţ�
I called channel five.
�Ҵ�绰���˵���Ƶ����
Their TV news is going to cover it.
���ǵĵ������Ž�������һ��Ϣ��
"Housewife campaigns in appliance stores."
����ͥ�����ڵ���������о�ѡ�����
And I'll bet
�ҸҴ��
some magazine will pick up the story, too.
һЩ��־Ҳ������������Ϣ��
Mom, you're going to win!
���裬���Ӯ�ģ�
I know it!
��֪����
Hold it, Robbie!
ͣͣ��Robbie��
Just cool down.
�侲һ�㡣
I know we're getting some attention now,
����Ϊ�������ڹ�Ȼ��������һЩע�⣬
but in the end the voters will have to decide.
�����ȴҪ��ѡ����������
You're gonna win.
���Ӯ�ġ�
Trust me!

In the hotly contested race
���ⳡ���Ҿ�����

����Riverdale����У����һ��ϯ�Σ�
Mrs. Ellen Stewart has taken an early lead.
Ellen Stewart̫̫�������ȡ�
She's winning!

Mom, you're winning!

Now returning to other local news ...
�����ٱ��������ط����š�
Riverdale High School
Riverdale����
beat its rival Horace Mann in baseball today ...
�ڽ���İ������д���˶���Horace Mann�ӡ�
It's too soon to know for certain.
���ڻ�̫�磬��֪��ȷ�������
You're ahead.
�������ء�
That's better than being behind.
���ܱ����Ҫ�á�
More sports after this.
�����������˶���Ϣ��
It's not over yet.
��û�����ء�
Let's just all calm down,
������ȫ���侲������
and wait for the final results.
�ȴ����Ľ����
Ellen, why don't you go out to the backyard
Ellen����β�ȥԺ����
and get some fresh air?
����һЩ���ʿ����أ�
Thank you, Grandpa.
лл�㣬үү��
I need some.
��ȷʵ��Ҫ��
What happened?
����
You came very close, Ellen.
�����һ��㣬Ellen��
You lost by only a hundred and twenty-one votes.
�������һ�ٶ�ʮһƱ��Щ������ˡ�
I lost.
�����ˡ�
You tried, Mom.
�㾡���ˣ����衣
You lost by a very small number of votes.
�����Ʊ���dz��١�
Only one hundred and twenty-one votes!
����һ�ٶ�ʮһƱ��
I'm sorry, Mom.
�Һ��ѹ������衣
There just wasn't enough time.
ʵ����û���㹻��ʱ�䡣
Look,

you've made a very strong impression
���Ѿ������˷dz���̵�ӡ��

You'll have another chance next election.

Oh, yes, yes, Mr. Maxwell.

Hello, Mr. Maxwell.
���ޣ�Maxwell������
How are you?
�����
I just called to tell you
�Ҵ�绰��������㣬
that you are very impressive.
���������������̵�ӡ��
You lost the election,
���������ˣ�
but you won the attention of the residents of Riverdale,
����������Riverdale�ľ����עĿ��
of Boswell, and of me.
��Boswell���ҵġ�
Well, thank you, Mr. Maxwell.
�ޣ�лл�㣬Maxwell������
I appreciate your kind words.
�Һܸ�л����ĵİ�ο��
I needed that.
������Ҫ�����
I hear Boswell
����˵Boswell��
wants to appoint you to a special arts committee.
�������㵽һ���ر�����ίԱ�ᡣ
I'm sending over a reporter

in the morning to interview you.
�������糿���ɷ��㡣
You are?

I'm gonna do an article

on "Ellen Stewart--she cares."
������Ellen Stewart���������ġ���
Maybe we'll all care now.

Good-bye.

What was that about?
˵Щʲô��
You were right, Philip.
��˵���ˣ�Philip��
I did make a difference in town.
