I Dream of Jeannie Season 2 Episode 16

My Master, the Author

Jeannie wishes to write a book about child care. After getting Tony's permission, she writes one, sends it to a publisher, and the book becomes a best seller. However, Jeannie had put Tony's name as the author which was a big mistake because Tony could be kicked out of NASA for not getting permission to write a book. Dr. Bellows puts Tony through a test by making him babysit his prank-loving nephew. While babysitting, General Peterson drops by and asks him to babysit his quiet niece. Tony passes his test (without the help of Jeannie) when the General and Dr. Bellows find the nephew acting like a gentleman and the niece talking.
