The Girl Who Never Had a Birthday (1)
Part 1 of two. Jeannie begins to fade because she doesn’t know her birthday., An unhappy Jeannie tells Tony that she has never had a birthday party as she is unaware of her birth date. Tony learns that her powers weaken as she becomes more upset, and he attempts to use a new super-computer to come up with the precise date of her entry into this – or another – world., In the first episode of a two-part story, Jeannie (Barbara Eden) is profoundly sad because she doesn’t know her own birthday (and never mind that she DID know in the first-season episode “GI Jeannie”). This lack of knowledge proves to have a deleterious effect on Jeannie, who begins fading into oblivion right before the eyes of her master Tony (Larry Hagman). In an effort to rescue her before she vanishes completely, Roger (Bill Daily) consults a NASA computer to determine exactly when Jeannie was born–but just as he is to reveal the date, Roger is transferred to a remote Alaskan outpost, where no communication devices are available!
