All in the Family1971
Archie Bunker:
[trying to get a hysterical Edith to explain what happened] Here, here, take it easy. So a man came over to the house, lookin' for a man, and he said he was the man he was lookin' for. What is that?
Edith Bunker:
He... he had a gun.
Archie Bunker:
HE HAD A GUN?
Edith Bunker:
He said... he was gonna kill me!
Archie Bunker:
DID HE?
Edith Bunker:
NO!
Archie Bunker:
[feeling foolish over his obvious gaffe] Yeah yeah, he didn't, he didn't... but what did he do?
Edith Bunker:
He... he... [she can't bring herself to say the words]
Archie Bunker:
...What, what, WHAT?
Edith Bunker:
...He... HE...
Archie Bunker:
[frustrated, but scared]... Come on, Edith, what did he WANT?
Edith Bunker:
[barely a whisper]... Me. [looks away]
Archie Bunker:
[confused] You? Well, what'd you tell him, Edith, did you...? [realizing what she means, suddenly panicked] The guy... [can't say the word, mouths it instead] RAPED [speaks again] you?
Edith Bunker:
NO... no... he tried to.
Archie Bunker:
He TRIED? W-w-w-w-what happened, what'd he do?
Edith Bunker:
[breaks down sobbing] It was awful. It was awful. I thought he was gonna kill me...
Archie Bunker:
Oh geez, Edith. Oh my God, Edith. You... you need to lie down for a little bit here. [she shakes her head "No"] Well well, maybe something hot to drink. [keeps shaking her head "No"] Somethin' cold? [keeps shaking her head "No"] Yeah, first things first, don't drink nothin. [heads for the phone]
Edith Bunker:
[hoarsely] Where are you going?
Archie Bunker:
Well, I gotta phone someone, call an ambulance, phone a doctor. [Edith keeps protesting "No", Archie is totally frustrated] "No, no, no, no"... okay, best thing is to stay offa the phone. [takes Edith hands in his] Well, geez, Edith... look, we gotta do something, Edith. I mean, if we don't phone nobody important, if we don't drink nothin' tasty, what the hell are we gonna do?
Edith Bunker:
HOLD ME!
Archie Bunker:
That's the best thing, I can do that, all right! [hugs her tight] Edith... how did you get away from the lousy bum?
Edith Bunker:
Cake... I... I... I hit him with the cake... I was baking.
Archie Bunker:
Thank god you had something heavy around. [realizing again the circumstances] Wait a minute, wait a minute... he must've been over there when I come lookin' for the punchbowl. But why didn't you say somethin'?
Edith Bunker:
He - he said he would... do somethin' to you.
Archie Bunker:
Do somethin' to me? What the hell? Was he a fruit, too?
