02x05 - My Wild Eyed Master

[bunniefuu]

Master?

It is almost : in the morning.

You must get some sleep.

Well, I have to finish
these reports, Jeannie.

Oh, very well then.
I will stay here and keep you company.

Oh, look, master.

There is a new movie about Cleopatra
opening at the Rialto tomorrow.

- May we go?
- Oh, I'm sorry, Jeannie.

I'm getting ready for
an Apollo Earth-orbit flight.

I'm afraid I can't take you.
Why don't you go alone.

Oh, no, master.
I will wait until you are free.

I love stories about kings and queens.
They are so exciting.

Yes, sure.

Oh, gosh.

I wish you would go to bed.

No, it's all right. I'm just gonna-
I'm just gonna-

Just gonna rest my eyes here
for a minute.

Hi, Doug. Mike.

- There you are.
- Well, it'll never get off the ground.

- Hi, Roge.
- Did you take your physical?

- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- How did you do?

Great, great. Good.

- Dr. Bellows wants to see you.
- What for?

I don't know.
Said to drop by his office.

Did you take your examination?

- Yeah.
- Well, how did you make out?

All right, I guess.

Well, all I know
is he wants you to drop by.

- I guess I better get cleaned up, huh?
- Yeah.

Come in.

- Morning, Dr. Bellows.
- Good morning, major.

Nothing like isometric exercises
for keeping up body tone.

Oh, yes, of course.

Major Healey said
you wanted to see me, sir.

Oh, yes. Sit down, Major Nelson.

You were scheduled to go on the
Apollo Earth-orbit mission this week.

Yes, sir. I've been working on
Project Rainbow and-

Did you say-?
Did you say "were scheduled"?

I'm afraid you're not
gonna be able to go.

But I've been training for that mission
for six months.

I'm aware of that. Perhaps you've
been overtraining, major.

Is there anything wrong
with my reflexes-

Oh, no, it's not your reflexes.
It's your eyes.

- My eyes?
- Your right eye, specifically.

You're suffering from eyestrain.

Have you been doing an unusual
amount of reading or paperwork?

Well, just the usual reports
regarding the mission...

...but I'm sure any eyestrain
is just temporary.

I'm sure it is, major...

...but meanwhile, you're grounded.

- Sir, you can't ground me, I'm-
- I'm sorry, major.

I understand your disappointment,
but as chief medical officer...

...it's my responsibility
to evaluate the fitness of all personnel.

You failed the eye test.

However, I'm gonna give you another
eye examination in the morning...

...so that we can determine
the best treatment.

I see. Well, that's very kind.

Afterward, why don't you
take a month off...

...and go fishing somewhere.

Thank you, sir. I hope you don't mind
if I appeal this to General Peterson.

And I've never felt better
in my life, general.

Now, Dr. Bellows will tell you that, with
the exception of this slight eyestrain...

...in my right eye,
I'm in perfect health.

Yesterday, I passed my physical.
I checked out percent.

I don't believe anybody knows more
about Project Rainbow than I do.

And, well, after all, we're not gonna be
reading eye charts up there, are we?

So if you would
give the green light...

...I can go ahead
with my pre-flight briefing.

I'm sorry to go over your head
on this, Dr. Bellows...

...but General Peterson understands
a little bit more...

...about these kind of things
than you do. Isn't that right, sir?

That's right, Tony. You're grounded.

It's not fair, Roger. It's just not fair.

They give me so much paperwork
I can't see straight.

Then when I can't see straight,
they don't let me go up on the mission.

I know it's rough, Tony, but if they
grounded you, it's for your own good.

It'll give you a chance
to relax your eyes.

There's absolutely nothing wrong
with my eyes.

I missed two lousy letters
on the bottom of the line.

They carry on like I was going blind
or something.

Will you calm down.

How can I calm down
when somebody's taking my place?

- Here.
- Two letters. Gee, that's too bad.

Wait a minute. Wait a minute.

Could you get Dr. Bellows
to give you that test again?

Yeah, he's giving me another
check-over, but what's the point?

The point is,
tomorrow you can pass.

- How?
- How? Jeannie.

- Jeannie?
- Beverley.

- Oh, I'm sorry. No, just forget it.
- Forget it? You-

Listen, the last time she tried to
help me, I almost got court-martialed.

No, forget it. The space program
and Jeannie just don't mix.

Yeah, but Jeannie can-

What's a genie for if she can't help
when you're in trouble?

Yeah, that's what I used to think,
but it doesn't work out that way.

Every time she tries to help me,
I'm in real trouble. I mean real trouble.

I don't want you to mention this to her,
and I mean it. Promise.

All right. Well, I still think
you're not seeing this too clearly.

Not seeing- " Not seeing this
too clearly. " That's a joke.

Well, I'll see you later.

Hello, Jeannie.

Oh, hello, master.

- You are home early.
- Yes, yes.

- Is something wrong?
- No, no, no, everything's fine.

Just fine. Matter of fact,
I have a surprise for you.

I'm gonna take you to dinner...

...and I thought we'd go to that
movie, the thing about Cleopatra.

Oh, master.

What about your mission?

- Oh, they cancelled that.
- Oh, why did they cancel it?

Technical difficulties, you know.

Is that all? Tell me what is wrong,
and I will take care of it.

No, no, just forget it.

Oh, but, master, I know how much
this mission means to you.

You've been working on it
for months.

We will go to the movies
some other time.

No, really. Really,
I don't need any help, Jeannie.

We're gonna go to the movies tonight,
and then you can...

...think about what we'll
do for the next four weeks.

- The next four weeks?
- Yeah.

Yeah, they've given me a vacation.

Isn't that wonderful?

Major Healey.

Jeannie. Jeannie, I wish
you wouldn't do that.

Oh, I am sorry, Major Healey...

...but I came here,
because I am worried.

You're worried?
You wanna feel a tom-tom?

Something has upset Major Nelson.

- Who told you that?
- Oh, no one told me...

...but I was not born yesterday,
Major Healey.

I'll say.

He's not going on his mission
and won't talk about it.

Well, if he's not gonna talk about it,
I'm not gonna talk about it.

So there is something wrong.

I didn't say that.
Now, look, you be a nice little genie...

...and run on home, and we can
talk about this some other time, right?

But, Major Healey, why are they giving
Major Nelson four weeks' vacation?

Well, why not?

Please tell me.

I'm sorry, my lips are sealed.

Major Healey.

Forget it.

I promised Tony I wouldn't tell you.

He has bad eyes!

Oh, boy, you certainly know
how to scare a guy.

- Major Nelson has beautiful eyes.
- Yeah, well, to you maybe...

...but he's failed his eye test,
and he's being grounded.

No wonder he was so unhappy.

But why did he not tell me?

Maybe it's because
you didn't set him on fire.

He did not wish to worry me.

I don't think that's the reason. Jeannie,
if I were you, I'd just stay out of this.

Well, of course I will not stay out of it.
But he is my master.

I love helping him.

I don't think he loves being helped.
Jeannie, will you do me a favour?

- What?
- Don't tell him I told you.

I'm getting too old
to make new friends.

Very well, I will say nothing.

- Yeah, well-
- Thank you, Major Healey.

- Drop in any time.
- Bye-bye.

Bring your own matches.

Hi, Jeannie. How are-?
Where have you been?

I just went out to get
a breath of fresh air.

I worry about you when you're-
When you're not around.

Oh, do you, master?

Yeah. Well, I know it's silly, but,
I mean, what could happen to a genie?

Nothing, as long as her master's
happy. Are you happy, master?

Oh, yes. Yes, I'm very happy.
Oh, I feel just wonderful.

Why don't you go and get ready,
and we'll get the early show tonight.

I'm due at Dr. Bellows office for a little
examination tomorrow morning, huh?

Oh, do not worry.
I'm sure everything will be just fine.

Oh, sure. Sure.

Have a wonderful day, master.

Thank you, Jeannie.
I won't be gone long.

What would you like to do today,
go to another movie?

Oh, well, no, master.

Too many movies
are bad for my eyes.

Oh, well, what do you say
I pick you up?

We'll go to the beach.
How would you like that?

Well, that would be wonderful,
but what about your work?

Oh, they'll find somebody else
to do that.

He has beautiful eyes.

He can see better
than anybody else in the world.

" P-L-D-P-B-T-L-D-P-B-L."

- Good morning, Major Nelson.
- Morning, Dr. Bellows.

- Roll up your sleeve, please.
- All right, sir.

- How are we feeling this morning?
- Well, we're feeling just fine.

Did you know
my vision cleared up?

- Has it? Why, that's remarkable.
- Yeah.

- The eyestrain just went away like that.
- Did it?

Yeah, I got a good night's sleep
last night.

Amazing what a good night's sleep
will do for you.

I was really worried I wasn't gonna
be able to make Project Rainbow.

And now you're not worried?

No, sir. I'm not worried at all.

I think you'll find
I have I vision.

Good. Blood pressure normal.

I think you'll find everything
normal, sir. Nothing to worry about.

All right, major...

...shall we read the eye chart again?

Yes, sir.

- Sit down, major.
- Yes.

Would you like me to start
at the top or the bottom?

Why don't you start at the bottom.
We'll try a different chart.

Oh, excuse me a minute, major.
I'll be right back.

Oh, Miss Gordon...

...will you get Major Nelson's file
and bring it in here.

Of course, Dr. Bellows. Where is it?

"Q-P-O-" No.

"O-P-Q-" "O-P-"
What is it? What-?

"O-P-" "O-P-"

- Fine, I'll get it right away.
- Thank you.

All right, major, shall we start?

Don't you think you should
wear a robe, sir?

A robe? What for?

Aren't you afraid you'll catch cold?

Why would I be afraid
of catching cold?

Oh, I don't know.
There's no reason, really.

Oh, come in.

Thank you, Miss Gordon.

- Will there be anything else, doctor?
- No, that will be fine.

Doctor, if you'd like me to wait, I-

Of course I don't want you to wait.

You're gonna read
that eye chart again.

Nice seeing you again, major.

Oh, well, it's certainly been nice
seeing you.

Now, major, shall we go on?

Sir, should she-?
Should she walk around like that?

Walk around like what?

Well, you saw her. She was wearing,
you know, underthings.

- Well, I should hope so.
- Hope so?

Major Nelson, can we get on
with the examination?

Yes. Oh, yes, yes.

Would you read the bottom line
of the chart, please?

" P-R-I-V-A-T-E."

Major, I'm afraid your eyes are worse.
You didn't get a single letter right.

Are you joking, sir?
I could see it right there.

But it doesn't say P-R-I-V-

- That spells " private. "
- Yes, sir.

It's on a door to a room,
and there's a-

There's a conference going on
in the room.

I can see through the wall.

Did you say you could
see through the wall?

Did I say I could
see through the wall?

I heard you.

You said you could see
through the walls into the room...

...and that there was a conference
going on. Isn't that what you said?

Yes. Yes.

Maybe that's why
you're in your underwear.

- My underwear?
- Yes.

You can see through my uniform?

Yes, sir.

What colour shorts am I wearing?

Blue, with your monogram.

Remarkable. You have x-ray eyes.

Who's in that conference?

General Peterson, Mr. Harris,
Mr. Rogers and Colonel Sackheim.

Don't go away, major.

Jeannie. Jeannie!

How is it going, master?

I'll tell you how it's going.
You should ask. It's gone.

I'm finished, washed up.

Oh, but I was only trying
to help you, master.

Don't say it.
Just, please, don't say it.

Who told you
about my eyes anyway?

I promised Major Healey
that I would not tell.

I'll k*ll him. I swear, I'll- I'll k*ll him.

I thought that if you had x-ray eyes,
they would let you go on your mission.

Mission? They won't let me
outside of this room.

General Peterson, Mr. Harris,
Mr. Rogers and Colonel Sackheim.

- Dr. Bellows-
- He was right.

Do you realize we're in the middle
of a private conference?

Yes, sir. That's why I came in.

Major Nelson saw it
from the examination room.

Dr. Bellows, I said we're in the middle
of a private conference.

General, may I see you
for a moment please.

Oh, excuse us, gentlemen.

Major Nelson has x-ray eyes.

- He has x-ray eyes.
- Yes, sir.

He saw you through the walls.

Gentlemen, if you'll excuse me
for a moment...

...there's something
I have to take care of.

General, this time
you're in for a big surprise.

All right, doctor.

If you had stayed out of this,
I'd have had a chance.

- Now, will you please stop helping me.
- I will do anything you ask.

All right, then change my eyes
back the way they were.

I am not sure I can do that.

What do you mean you're not sure?

Well, I have never done this before.

Must they be exactly
the way they were?

Exactly? My mission
was scrubbed...

...because I missed two little letters
on that chart, just two.

Yes, they must be exactly.

I will try, master.

How is that?

What do you mean?

Dr. Bellows? Dr. Bellows, I-

General Peterson, sir.

- That's the man with the x-ray eyes?
- Just wait, general. It's remarkable.

- Major, read the chart.
- The chart?

Oh, the chart, yes. Chart.

- Doctor?
- General, I tell you...

...this man can see through the walls.
He can even see me in my underwear.

My father begged me to go into
banking and I wouldn't listen to him.

- Major.
- Yes?

Tell him, what am I wearing?

You're wearing- Oh, you're wearing
your blue uniform, sir. Blue uniform.

- What about my blue shorts?
- Yes, what about your blue shorts?

Doctor, I'm going back
to my conference now.

I don't wanna be disturbed again.

- Any questions?
- No, general.

Oh, I got them, sir. Here-

- " M-O-O-R-" " R-N-"
- Why me?

"O-I-T-A." I've got it right here, sir.
Doctor?

Doctor, don't leave me.
Doctor, please.

I'm terribly sorry.

Oh, I'm very sorry, sir.

Let me help you.

This section over here, senator,
is our medical department.

This is where our astronauts
take their pre-flight examinations.

These are some of the offices
of the men around here.

As you can see,
right over the corridor-

Excuse me.

- Who is that?
- That was one of our astronauts, sir.

- And-
- One of our astronauts?

Excuse me, sir.

Coffee machine.

"Anthony Nelson. "

Tony, what happened to you?

I'll tell you what happened.
I got a big mouth for a friend.

I got a big mouth for a friend.
I ask you not to tell Jeannie.

Well, what did she do to you?

What did she do to me?
She helped me, that's what she did.

- How are you feeling, master?
- I'll tell you how I'm feeling.

I'm the only astronaut in the program
that needs a Seeing Eye dog.

Would you like to have
a Seeing Eye-

No. I want my I vision back.

Can't you fix him up?

Well, I must say it is rather nice
to have him like this.

This way, he cannot look
at other girls.

- Yeah. Jeannie, please.
- Yes, master, I vision.

- Swell.
- What is she do-? What is she doing?

I am working on your
I vision, master.

It is not easy.

Perhaps if you went
to an eye doctor.

- Please.
- I vision.

Are you feeling better, master?

Is that better, master?

Can you see me now, Tony?

Oh, master. Master. Master.

I am so excited that I
am going to play golf with you.

No, I'm playing the golf.
You're gonna caddy, remember?

Oh, I do not care,
as long as I'm with you.

I've been good all week.
Your eyes are fine now.

Oh, yeah. Got my I vision back,
thank you very much.

I am sorry that I wasn't
able to fix them in time...

...for you to go up on your mission.

That's all right.
There will be other missions.

I had no idea that perfect eyes
were so important to an astronaut.

Oh, yes. Perfect vision,
perfect reflexes, perfect hearing-

Perfect hearing?

Now you have
perfect hearing, master.

Master, I just gave you
perfect hearing.

Master?
I just gave you perfect hearing.

- Master. Oh, no.
- Jeannie, you're kidding.

- I did it again?
- You've gotta be kidding.

Jeannie.
