The Return of Grandma: The Crossover is episode four of the first season of Full House: Crossover Series.
Plot Summary[]
In the kitchen, Jesse shows Danny and Joey a turtle named Bubba, which Jesse brought home because Bubba saved Jesse's life while Jesse was on his way home from a gig.
Jesse then leaves the kitchen to get his guitar and bring it inside the house. By the time Jesse returns to the kitchen, the girls have noticed Bubba, and they talk Danny into letting Bubba stay. After that, Stephanie says that Danny's mother Claire is coming to visit from Seattle.
It turns out that Joey forgot to mention that to Danny after Claire called and said she would be over. Joey tells Danny that Claire will be arriving at the airport at 5:12pm. A now frantic Danny wants the messy house cleaned up as soon as possible, so he can prove to Claire that he can handle things on his own, now that Pam is gone.
The guys take the girls out shopping for cleaning supplies with them. When they get home, it is still about five hours away from Claire's arrival time. Minutes later, as the guys are about to start cleaning, Claire shows up and sees the mess.
It turns out that Joey mixed up her arrival time. It was 12:05pm, not 5:12pm. A shocked Claire has Joey's mother Mindy and Jesse's mother Irene come over to see the mess. The guys tell the mothers to go shopping for a couple of hours, saying that the house will be clean by the time the mothers get back. After the mothers leave, Stephanie and D.J. tell the guys that Bubba is missing. They search, but to no avail.
When the mothers return, the house is still a mess, but the mothers see how the guys help D.J. and Stephanie handle the loss of Bubba, helping the girls feel a little bit better. The mothers still threaten to move in because the house is still a mess, so Danny has the mothers take the girls to the zoo, then the guys actually get to work. This time, the house is clean when the mothers return. Claire admits that Danny can handle things on his own, and Stephanie finds Bubba.
Trivia[]
- This is Alice Hirson's last appearance as Claire Tanner. She is later played by Doris Roberts in the season three episode "Granny Tanny".
- Jesse's mother, Irene, was first played by Rhoda Gemignani before being replaced by actress Yvonne Wilder.
- Danny is shown as not caring about cleaning here. In retrospect, this can be a sign of depression, which is quite common for a person who has lost a spouse especially the way Danny did. This is borne out further by his obsession with it later, as if he uses it to try and fill the gap left by Pam's death.
- At one point in the episode, an audience member can be heard saying "Turtle".
- This is the first appearance of Kimmy Gibbler (Andrea Barber).
- Harry is not allowed to cross the street
- He is of Japanese heritage
