The American girls accidentally set the couch on Jack's foot. Chrissy says, "Look, are you gonna strip off or not?" He says, "You know, I've been waiting for that invitation." Wallpaper: Robin wants to demonstrate with the lamp how he would treat a rude man. (Coat?) Helen asks Stanley to see if the nightie comes in black. Mildred, who's smoking, says that there is a black coat. Ropers say their wives would enjoy being merry widows. Ropers suggest taking aspirin, Mildred recommending 100, Helen the whole bottle. The Amer-Ropers have a similar conversation, only there's nothing about Christmas paper.īoth Mr. She says, "It's sexy, George," but he says it'd "be like wrapping a brick in Christmas paper." She's talking about the see-through nightie. Mildred: George, how would you fancy me coming to bed in that?
Mildred is looking through a catalog and hands it to George. Stanley: Don't look at me, it's your mother. Helen: I don't see how anything could get that grubby in two years. (It's not clear if Janet and Chrissy were living there yet, but I doubt it.) She says, "I think the style's have changed since 1947." He says it was two years ago, when her mother was visiting. Mildred says that the kids are redecorating, "just like you did in 1947." Helen says that they're redecorating.
Ropers wonder about the thumping upstairs. Janet is about to get him some water, but he says, "No water, the tacks will get rusty," and reveals that he hid them in his hand. Like a "real upholsterer," he puts the tacks in his mouth as he works on the couch. He says he has to keep in shape as, "old watchdog Jack." He was following a girl with "a jiggling seat." He fixed her seat. "I'm one of those girls who like rough, drunken sailors. Robin tells her, "You're a big, rough, drunken sailor and you're gonna ravish me." He has her grab him and "force him down" onto the sofa. Chrissy says, "In high boots and a miniskirt?.You're a bit old-fashioned. Robin pretends to be "a young sweet girl" walking down the street. Robin: Look, I'm not going to be able to learn if you won't let me practise on you. Robin is off at his judo lesson, which Chrissy says is "like flower-arranging, with violence." When he returns, he wants to demonstrate judo on Chrissy, but she says he's after "a quick Japanese fumble." (This suggests that they lived with Eleanor for a couple years before she left.) Meanwhile, the American girls are working on the couch. They enjoy the "squalor" of their flat, but it's in their lease that they have to redecorate every three years. Squalor: In London, the girls are scraping off the wallpaper. "Colour Me Yellow" aired 16 January 1974, "Jack the Giant Killer" April 14, 1977. It's always been my least favorite of the first season of 3'sC, but there are definitely worse episodes in the series. The 9th episode of MatH became the fifth episode of 3'sC and placed #10 in the ratings.
