A promise to a girl in distress
Creates for John Gage a real mess
At the station he stays
Stuck with Bonnie for days
Lesson learned? Well, that's anyone's guess
When a string of jokes fills John with dread
He won't take it, he'll get even instead
Revenge will be sweet
With a garlic-laced treat
But the prankster stays one step ahead
Though his cooking skills aren't very hot
At a new dish, Roy takes his best shot
For a time he's in doubt
The guys know it turned out
'Til he sees how they've emptied the pot
Thanks to Dix, it seems Johnny and Roy
Make an unlikely deal with a boy
But they find missing Grover
When the brush fire's over
And bring all some much needed joy
Of washing the dishes John's weary
But his plan to prevail leaves Roy leary
He invents his own game
Yet the outcome's the same
Well, it seemed like a sure-fire theory
Johnny's fallen for Nurse Ellen Bart
She's the latest to capture his heart
She's set off to sea
It's not meant to be
But in love, who said Johnny was smart
When Wheeler gets more than his share
Of attention, it hardly seems fair
Though at first he's enraged
It at last dawns on Gage
It's for helping, not hyping, he cares
Though to Roy it seemed nutty to say
It would be an unusual day
Just as John feared
Their calls were all weird
Second-guessing him just doesn't pay
Johnny Gage found himself in a bind
A replacement he was desperate to find
But his plain fireman buff
Cleaned up well enough
He could see he'd been out of his mind
While it seems Johnny won't be defeated
Finding out how Adam-12 was completed
By the end of the show
He does not want to know
So it's fresh when the eppy's repeated
Roy finds himself scratching his head
Left bewildered as to what he had said
It must have been rude
To create such a mood
Or his partner's just nutty instead
