I saw this episode where George Jefferson and Mr. Bentley got locked up in a dumpster or something- and George found this empty ice cream can and said something like "Willis just finished dessert." And Mr. Bentley lost the key. Can someone tell me the name of the episode, the number, and the year it was released? Thanks.

I'm the lead editor of the Jeffersons section at tvtome.com and you are talking about the episode entitled, "I've Got a Secret" which aired December 20, 1981. This episode was made for the previous season, season 7, but CBS didn't air it until the 8th. It is the 156th episode to be produced and the 165th episode to actually air.

In the episode, George is trying to sneak a peek at Louise's diary. At one point, the diary gets thrown out and George and Mr. Bentley must get it out of the dumpster.

Sorry, I have another question.
Did Nick At Nite air any episodes from 1983-1985?

Nick at Nite has aired episodes from 1983-1985. However, they got all the way to 1985 and then stopped leaving 10 or so episodes that still haven't aired on Nick at Nite. Perhaps they will air them this next time through. Currently, Nick at Nite is beginning the 6th season, 1979-1980.

I'm sorry to be bothering you with my questions. Can someone give me info on that episode where this person was giving Mr. Bentley a hard time next door and he gave him a black eye?

I can't remember the episode name, but let me put it to you in lammer terms. Mr. Bentley was getting punked by a neighbor in the garage, the man kept on putting dents in his car. So George tried to help him out and got him in more trouble. George gave Bentley a note to give to the man, and the man punched Mr. Bentley out. That is how he got the "black-eye".
