The Jetsons (1962–1963): Season 2, Episode 23 - Rip-Off Rosie - full transcript

Rosey eats a faulty lug nut, causing her to steal things.

Sundays are great. It's the one
day it's okay to do nothing.

I know how much you love
doing nothing, George.

Your hat's cute. But aren't you
a bit early for Halloween?

It's not a hat. It's a
voice-activated hair styler.

Watch.

Styler off.

Very amusing.

Styler on.

[GEORGE LAUGHS]

Hey, my omelet.

Sorry, George. You just have to
watch what you say around it.



[WHISTLING]

[GROWLING & BARKING]

GEORGE:
Astro, no.

Ah!

ASTRO:
Thank you, Rosey.

Dogs are man's best friend,
but not newsboy's.

Thanks, Astro. Good dog.

Yeah, he's got
a real nose for news.

Well, folks, what
else can I do...

...to make your day
more comfortable?

Coffee, orange juice, biscuits?

You've done it all, Rosey.

What makes you
so terrific, anyway?

It's my lifestyle, Mr. J.



I'm programmed to
be user-friendly.

Well, we're very lucky
to have you, Rosey.

They don't make
them like you anymore.

Please, leave my age
out of this.

What's this?
A new egg style?

My voice-activated hair styler
styled George's omelet.

[LAUGHING]

Yeah, just say "styler on" and--

Styler off.

ROSEY:
What won't they think of next?

[LAUGHING]

[GEORGE & JANE LAUGHING]

[GROWLING]

You folks relax. I'll
take care of this problem.

Come on, Astro.
I'll fix you breakfast.

Breakfast? Oh, boy.

Oh, what a jewel she is,
and she never complains.

And she never breaks down.

Today, I'm gonna elevate
relaxation to an art form.

ROSEY: Yoo-hoo, Mr. J.,
spacephone for you.

Jetson, there's trouble
in Rivet City.

Something's gone bonkers
in the shipping warehouse.

Get down to
the plant right away.

But I'm off on Sundays.

You'll be off every day
if you don't get down here.

It's okay, George. I understand.

But you can't leave
the house like that.

I never looked good with my
hair parted in the middle.

ROBOTO:
Greetings, Mr. Jetson.

Hello, Roboto.
What's the problem?

No problem here, Mr. Jetson.

I got a call saying
there was a big problem in here.

You have been misinformed.

Well, everything looks
routine around here.

No problem here, Mr. Jetson.

Maybe it's Spacely testing
my loyalty again.

-No problem.
-I might as well get on home.

No problem. No problem.
No problem. No problem.

Now we've got problems.

GEORGE: I think you've got
technical problems, Roboto.

I'm gonna have
to pull your plug.

Is there something I can
do for you, Mr. Jetson?

Do you know what you just did?

Certainly. My shipping record
is super impeccable.

Well, your memory chips
must be fried.

This won't look good on your
performance record, you know.

ROBOTO:
Move them in, ship them out.
Move them in, ship them out.

Move them in, ship them out.

[GRUNTING]

GEORGE:
Help.

ROBOTO: Mr. Jetson,
what is your problem?

GEORGE: You're the problem.
You're bonkers.

You're no Mr. Normal yourself.

He's a total space case.

I'll be.

Here's the problem.
A faulty lug nut.

Outstanding, Jetson. I saw the
whole thing from my office.

What was the problem?

Just a little
old defective lug nut.

I installed a new one.

Well, good work, Jetson.
You saved us some big bucks.

Time you had a raise.

A raise?

Oh, and since it's Sunday,
take tomorrow off.

Well, Roboto,
how do you feel now?

I feel fantastic.

So do I, Roboto. So do I.

Ta-da! Hail the conquering hero.

George, what happened?

And what are you hiding?

For the flower of my life.

Roses?

Oh, George,
aren't you thoughtful?

GEORGE:
Not just roses.

They're beautiful, but why?

And, Judy, this is for you.

Elroy, here's yours.

A holographic music album.

The Purple Planet Pluto Punks.

Oh, thank you, Daddy.
But how come?

Oh, boy. An Einstein video disc.

What's the occasion, Dad?

And for Astro, a stick
that throws itself.

Now I won't have to do it.

[YAWNS]

And our wonderful Rosey,
sweets for the sweet.

An assortment
of your favorites, Rosey.

A nuts, bolts and screw sampler.

ROSEY:
Oh, boy.

Chocolate bolts, creamy screws
and caramel lug nuts.

Why all this, George?

You either won a spaceball pool
or you're under heavy stress.

Neither. Spacely gave me
tomorrow off and a raise.

I just wanted
to share my good fortune.

Definitely stress.

He's hallucinating.

Poor Dad.

Why would that old miser
give you a raise, Dad?

Because of this little baby.

It caused a robot in shipping
to go bonkers.

I pulled it from that loony
robot and saved the day.

Now Spacely thinks I'm a hero.

Oh, George, you are a hero.
I'm so proud of you.

Let's celebrate with dinner out.

Good thought.

How about someplace local,
like the moon mall?

There's a great
seafood place...

...in the Sea
of Tranquility Crater.

Punch it, Dad. I've got
a bad case of moon munchies.

Robot candy doesn't
last long around me.

I'm just nuts
for screws and bolts.

Oh, no, all gone already?

Oh, hey, how did
this one escape?

A place for everything
and everything in its place.

A place for everything
and everything in its place.

George, have you
seen my jewelry case?

I can't find it anywhere.

GEORGE:
What did you do
with my golf clubs?

I wish you'd
quit rearranging things.

You often leave
them in the solarium...

...beside the potted palm.

Potted palm? Oh, yeah.

But where is that jewelry case?

How could I lose something as
big as a bag of golf clubs?

Uh-oh.

Or as big as a potted palm tree.

Hey, Jane, the potted palm
is also missing.

What's going on?

Rosey, have you
seen my golf clubs?

Sure, Mr. J., lots of times.

They're long sticks
made of wood and steel...

...and they come
in a leather bag.

I mean lately, Rosey.
They're missing.

You're gonna
have to be more careful...

...with your things, Mr. J.

There's a place for everything
and everything in its place.

But how could
anyone misplace a palm tree?

ROSEY: Maybe it was the kind
of palm that had a date?

[ROSIE LAUGHING]

Hey, even my feather
duster is missing.

Now we're talking serious.

Rosey, have you
seen my jewelry case?

I've looked everywhere.

Oh, swell. Now we have the case
of the missing jewelry case.

What will turn up missing next?

Einstein's lost.

If Einstein had all those
brains, how could he get lost?

I mean my Einstein video, Mom.

An Einstein video should be
relatively easy to find.

But a feather duster?

My digital diary is missing.

If anyone reads it, I'll die
of terminal humiliation.

Elroy.

Have you been snooping around
my room again?

I've got my own problems.

George, you don't
suppose we were robbed...

...while we were out last night?

Good point. I'll check
the entry monitor.

[BUZZING]

Nope. The only illegal entries
were two houseflies...

...and a mosquito.

My dog walker is missing.

Your dog walker is missing?

Mom, I'm ruined.
My diary is gone.

And my Einstein video is gone.

Not to mention my jewelry case
and your dad's golf clubs.

Wait a minute.
Something's crazy here.

First my golf clubs,
then a potted plant...

...a jewelry case,
a diary and a video disc.

Wow. All this stuff
in Rosey's room...

...it's a certified
mind-boggler.

Dad, could I see
you for a minute?

What did you lose now?

This whole family is turning
into a bunch of losers.

A place for everything
and everything in its place.

I can't believe this.

It's impossible.

Is this one of your practical
jokes, George?

Am I laughing?

And I thought Rosey was the
absolute picture of honesty.

If she is...

...you can figure she stole that
picture off somebody's wall.

Now, we've got to handle this
with sympathy and understanding.

Right. We'll talk
it all out with her.

She may need professional help.

Let's see.

Space baloney, Martian
mayonnaise, lunar lettuce...

...Orion onion
and black hole wheat.

Elroy, where's Rosey?

-She took a space bus.
JANE: Where?

She said she was going shopping
at the new moon mall.

Shopping? You mean shoplifting.

[KID LAUGHING]

[BARKING]

[BEEPING]

Madame, you didn't pay.
Madame, you didn't pay.

A place for everything
and everything in its place.

The frozen space food
always gives me the chills.

I hope I'm not too late.

There might not be anything
left in the shopping mall.

A place for everything
and everything in its place.

CASHIER:
Pardon me, Madame. You must
stop at the checkout stand.

CASHIER [ON PA]:
Pardon me.

Security alert.
Security alert.

Code nine. Code nine.

A place for everything
and everything in its place.

Rosey, what have you done?

That's terrible.

We've got to return all this.

Everything in its place.

Freeze, mister.

Shoplifting on this moon
is a very serious offense.

You got a receipt
for these items?

But I didn't buy this stuff.

Yeah, that's what we in the
security game call shoplifting.

You don't understand.
Our maid here stole it.

Something's terribly
wrong with her.

Rosey, how are you?
Good to see you.

Look, I know Rosey.

I see her here shopping all
the time, and she's okay.

But she's not.

Look at those crazy
fast movements...

...the wild-looking eyes.

You're despicable.

Blaming your own crime
on a defenseless robot.

Rosey, tell him you
took these things.

Really, Mr. J.

I would never take something
that wasn't mine.

Spread them, fellow.

You're making a big mistake.

That's what Light Fingers
Lunar Louie said...

... just before he got 10
to 20 busting moon rocks.

Rosey, help me.

Oh, my gosh. It's the same
as the robot in shipping.

Rosey, did you eat
that lug nut I brought home?

Mr. J., it was delicious.

We've to get her
to a robot doctor...

...to remove that
faulty lug nut she ate.

Sorry, I'm not
buying that story.

[ENGINE REVVING]

GEORGE:
Oh, no. Don't.

Come back, Rosey.

Hang on, I'll get help.

A wacko robot babe
on a stolen security spacecycle.

All units, red alert.

[SIRENS WAILING]

Help.

[CRASH]

Stop, thief. Stop, thief.

Wait a minute, where am I?

Help.

Rosey, stop.

Help.

No, Rosey. No.

[CRASH]

JANE:
Oh, George, I'm worried
about our Rosey.

We won't lose her,
will we, Dad?

Hang in there, Elroy.

They're taking her
into the operating room now.

Oh, my, this is an old one.

DOCTOR:
Yeah, they don't make
them like this anymore.

How will we ever
find original parts?

It's a complete reassembly job.

Let's get into it.

-Hemostat.
NURSE: Hemostat.

-Clamp.
NURSE: Clamp.

-My forehead.
-Your forehead.

No, I mean sponge it.

Vital signs are failing, doctor.

[BEEPING]

Nurse, that robot
resuscitator, stat.

[CLANGING]

Aha! Here's the problem.
A faulty lug nut.

Hey, that's the lug nut
I took out of the robot at work.

DOCTOR:
There. That should do it.

[BEEPING]

DOCTOR:
The life signs are returning.

You can close her up, nurse.

What are you all staring at?

You know I'm not the kind of
lady who goes to pieces.

GEORGE:
Yay!

Just a little
get-well gift, Rosey.

I'll have your nurse put
them in permanent preserving...

...Martian Moon Water.

We're so happy you're going
to be alright, Rosey.

But I feel so weak.

You're gonna be fine, Rosey.

I don't think I'll be able to
walk for weeks, maybe months.

Well, these could
make you feel better.

I got you a box of delicious
chocolate-covered screws...

...bolts and lug nuts.

Lug nuts? Lug nuts.

Lug nuts.

Lug nuts, lug nuts, lug nuts.

You know, George, I don't recall
what we paid for Rosey, but--

I know, I know.

--she was a real steal.

[ALL LAUGHING]
