5. In one episode, The Partridge Family was scheduled to perform for children in a hospital.

The family was able to get rid of the smell in time for the performance by bathing in tomato juice, but there was no time to 'shop' for new clothes. Their manager, Ruben Kincaid, came up with the idea to 'borrow' and 'purchase' clothing from various people in and around their hotel. On the way to the performance, a well-meaning young man (who had a bad cold) saw their dog on the bus and decided to return her to the family.
