I Dream of Jeannie
This Is Murder
S1 E28:
Tony is assigned to assure Princess Tarji a good time during her three day visit to the country, since the US is anxious to make a deal for oil with her father, the Shah of Pakuait. Jeannie tells Tony that she must kill the Princess since Tarji's family insulted her family three thousand years before. Desperate, Tony gives Jeannie a series of assignments, such as building a ski chalet in Bermuda to keep her out of town for three days. Tarji shows more than a passing interest is her escort. Suddenly realizing that Jeannie has finished all her impossible tasks, Tony tries to get Tarji to leave before Jeannie returns. Jeannie arrives, still determined to kill Tarji. Tony stops her by announcing that Tarji is an adopted child and not of royal blood. Jeannie apologizes to Tarji but the Princess is insulted by this slur on her lineage. Angered by Tony's lie, Jeannie turns him into a parrot, but later Tarji and Jeannie agree the family feud was silly. Removing the spell from Tony, she tells him the oil deal is safe. Tony and Jeannie smile at each other and kiss.
