"The Bomber And Mrs. Moroney" is 50!

[Bobbi]

I forgot to add a bit of mindless trivia: we see Marty's watch at some point (I think he's babbling on about when the vest goes 'boom'). It shows the episode takes place on Tuesday the 8th.

Due to the air date of February 24, 1971; that leaves 1970 or very early 1971 for possibilities. In 1970, Tuesday the 8th happened in September and December. In 1971, it doesn't happen until June! It gives us an idea/ballpark when the episode was filmed and it certainly wasn't done in a single day.

Happy 50th!

[Mr. Mike]

Don't forget the 13th season sequel to this episode!

Mrs. Moroney, You're Full of Baloney ★★

In S03E22, Marty, the brother of the guy who Danno shot and killed in the first season, returned to take vengeance, but, confusingly, his brother's name was changed from Thad to Joey and their last names changed from Vaughn to Collins. Using the same kind of logic, Marty, who was supposedly killed with a head shot in the season three show, did not die! He recovered, went to jail and acted like a model prisoner (again) and was released on parole (again). He tracks down Mrs. Moroney, the old lady who gave him a lot of mouth during the hostage taking. She nags him even more in this show, and he instead realizes he was wrong and decides to become a social worker.
