I just watched this episode again recently and I noticed something: At the end of the episode does John-Boy KEEP the typewriter? He still has it at night even though he got it back during the day time. You'd think he would have returned it to the Baldwins as soon as he got it back but he doesn't, and then the ending narration seems to imply that he did keep it!

I don't recall him returning it either. Don't you just hate people like that? They come borrow your ladder and you have to go over to their house to get it back!

LOL......maybe he just borrowed it for a little while longer....... I don't think it was ever mentioned again. Yes, you would think he would have returned it immediately considering all they went through. Ep Bridges helps save the day!!

Hey Moe. The push mower I was talking about on Facebook Chat. Well I let a woman go ahead and take it for 50 dollars. I never did see the mower or the 50 dollars again.

Thinking out loud----- Could it have been that when the Baldwins realized how much trouble he had to go through to reclaim it they let him go ahead and keep it for a little while longer---then if he went ahead and retuned it they would have had to mention it on a future episode in which some viewers would ask what was that about in case they had missed The Typerwriter episode to begin with. Remember that in the fall of 1972 we did not have the means to preserve programs ourselves on VCRs and if you missed an episode you might never get to see it----

Johnboy did continue to use the typewriter. It was mentioned in a later episode that it had burnt up in the house fire.

The main reason I realised it is that in the novelization of this episode there's a whole scene of him bringing it back which I didn't remember!

No Moe. I felt sorry for her because her yard really needed mowing so I said go ahead and take it and you can pay me when you can. I never heard anymore from her. No big deal. I had got plenty of use out of it and wasn't going to loose any sleep over 50 dollars.

I forgot. She had plenty of money to go to the tavern every night I guess was the bad part.

Lots of those kind around. Those are the ones you direct to the local rental place.
