This is one of my favorites and it is weird she didn't think she needed a receipt to return it, but I think back then if you were returning a gift, they could just confirm the sale with their books?
I loved when the security guard was watching her and Mrs. G thought he was flirting and trying to pick her up. :lol:

Wonder was there additional footage at the store after being told she was arrested for shoplifting.

Are you watching it on Antenna TV? I used to watch it on there until the channel left my area last month and from what I heard, they do heavily edit the episodes, so there probably is additional footage that wasn't shown.
I'm 9 episodes away from that one on my dvd watching, but unless I saw the edited version that played, I couldn't tell if anything you saw was edited out.
I highly recommend getting the dvd's because TV can edit out as much as 5 minutes of the show!! :eek:

I think so too because she was arrested and then no other shot of her being at the store and being let go. So I am confident something was cut out especially after she said she had a date with the security guard:lol:

I'll pop in that episode tomorrow and give it a look. After they arrest her, what's the very next scene that was shown and i'll compare to see if there's anything in between.

After she gets arrested you never see a shot of her at the store again, it just goes back to the girls in their room and Mrs garrett comes in and ask can she speak to Tootie, natalie and Jo.

Ok thanks. I'll watch it tomorrow and come back here to let you know if there's anything in between those scenes! :wave:
cfr1970 06-10-2020, 11:25 AM I just watched "Shoplifting" (I really love this one!)
After Mrs. G gets hauled away in the clothes store, they cut to the girls room where they're all talking about the gift and Mrs. G comes in. So there's no scene at the store anymore after that and Mrs. G made her date with the security guard offscreen.
We learn from Tootie that she takes the bus though when she says her bus could be hijacked! I thought she had her Beetle?! :confused::confused:
The shirt was so damn hideous and Blair was right to suggest Mrs. G return it. It wasn't her style at all! :eek:
And Jo is a little sociopath isn't she? First she hotwires the school van, takes Blair to a bar, and now shoplifts a shirt and even justifies it to an impressionable Nat and Tootie. Bad Jo!
It was funny when Mrs. G tells Blair that she won't mind if she took the Gucci bag back, since she said it's ok to return gifts. I bet she was able to get a dozen blouses for the price of that bag. :lol:
cfr1970 06-10-2020, 11:27 AM Oh....when she said she had no receipt because it was a gift, the saleslady said she can just check her sales slips for it, so I guess that's what they did back then in the archaic early 1980's lol.

Nope, there's nothing more. Mrs. Garrett is led away as she drops the sleeve of the blouse she was looking at on the rack. That's all there is.
TV Guy 06-10-2020, 01:07 PM They cut out the part where Edna is put in the same cell as that thug who shared the cell with the four musketeers in TNG2.

One of the main reasons why I never warmed to the Jo character. The show at times seems to award or make excuse for criminal behavior because that person was born on the wrong side of the tracks.

That was her excuse though; when her father left the family she got into a crowd who "got her into trouble", so with her immense anger and these new people as a bad influence, that was a bad recipe for Jo. It makes sense and is believable.
But one thing that's nice to see about Jo's early years is the influence of "Warden Garrett" and her "cellmate" sisters there at Eastland. They help her realize the goodness in her and in others.
Chocolate Moose 06-10-2020, 04:05 PM Yes, in Ye Olden Days, if the gift had a sticker on it from the store, they'd take it back sans receipt. Good times!!!
^Jo matured/cleaned up her act pretty quickly, though, thanks to her time at Eastland. :)

Right now I'm reading a book about the Walt Disney Studios, and how in 1940 when they moved from Hyperion to Burbank, there was a blurb in the company newsletter how the Ink & Paint "girls" would be moving their department in about a month, and "several Disney males won't be woebegone much longer", after they'd been "missing glances at the Ink & Paint department" now that the "girls" would be coming to the new digs! Molly would have been fuming back then! Oh, good for those men to have something to look at and "nudge nudge, wink wink" at! Oh, let's tell the entire company how good it is that the men will now have the "girls" back for their privileged male visual pleasure!
My how have those times have changed! :lol:

I've been a Disneyphile since I was a youngster, immersing myself in all the "adult" Disney books I could find as a teenager and young adult to this day, and I'm seeing photos I've never seen before and learning history I've never known before---so much fun!)

I've enjoyed a lot of Disney books myself. A personal favorite remains DisneyWar by James Stewart, which covers the "Save Disney" movement, and the downfall of Michael Eisner.

Ah. I'm sure that has to be interesting, and I have read one book on the Disney takeover ushering in the Eisner era, but my Disney book passion is for Disney art, Disney films, Disney history of yore, and Disney parks. :heart:
