I haven't seen this episode (14) on tv recently, either on TBS or Nick at Nite. Does anyone know how to get a transcript of the show or a tape? I am doing an analysis of inconsistencies in the show over the seven years it was on the air.
And by the way what does PAL version of a video tape mean?

I thought they might show it on Christmas, but they're showing episode 37, a Keaton Christmas Carol.

PAL is one of the three video formats for VHS in the world - The other two are SECAM and NTSC (the latter is the native format for the US). PAL is by far the most common format, and is the native format for most of Europe, Australia, New Zealand, China, Malaysia and a number of other countries.

As I have posted on other threads already, I'd be happy to make you a copy of episode 14 if you can play PAL (or if you can convert PAL to your format somehow) - I do have the episode, along with pretty much all other episodes.
