‘Can't You Hear Me Knocking’

Season 7, Episode 13 -  Aired January 12, 2005

After Kelso makes a threatening phone call to the White House, the guys panic that the Feds are going to come after them. As she tries to get over Hyde, Jackie joins Donna at her karate class. Meanwhile, Kitty invites herself along on Red's fishing trip.

Quote from Red

Kitty: Now, now, Red, you were happy, remember?
Red: Right. First freeze of winter, I'm spending the day ice fishing.
Kitty: Well, I'll come with you. Grab a fishing stick for me. [chuckles]
Red: I don't wanna go.
Kitty: What? Why not?
Red: Because I don't want you to go.
Kelso: [cocks imaginary gun] Burn!
Red: Really, I mean, Kitty, you'd hate it. It's cold and boring, and we both know the only ice you like is in your cocktails. [Kelso cocks imaginary gun again]
Kitty: Nonsense. We're going ice fishing, and we're gonna have fun, and that's that.
Red: Yeah. That's that.

Quote from Jackie

Hyde: Jackie, seriously, isn't there anything you wanna say about what you did?
Jackie: No, I have much more important things to do with my day. Donna, what are we doing with our day?
Donna: I'm going to karate class.
Jackie: Oh, I knew it'd be something sweaty.
Donna: You don't have to go.
Jackie: No, no, no, I'm going. I'm going. Now that I'm not with Steven, I have much more time to do mannish, unladylike things with you.
Donna: I'll give you 50 bucks to take her back.
Hyde: 50 bucks buys me beer for a week, freedom lasts a lifetime.

Quote from Red

Kitty: Well, this is boring. Let's do something fun. Oh, oh, let's play 20 questions.
Red: Kitty, I'm trying to fish.
Kitty: Okay, you think of something, I'll ask the questions. Is it a thing?
Red: Yes.
Kitty: Is it small?
Red: Yes.
Kitty: Is it a raisin?
Red: Yes, you win.
Kitty: Well, you're not even playing. What's so great about ice fishing anyway?
Red: It was the solitude.

Quote from Kitty

Kitty: Well, I'm freezing. This is like that winter we locked ourselves out of our first apartment. We had to sit on the stoop, cuddled up for two hours, waiting for the landlord to bring the key.
Red: And then we had to warm ourselves up in front of the stove because the heater was broken.
Kitty: We could warm each other up right now.
Red: Ah, what the hell.

Quote from Eric

Kelso: Oh, my God. Did you see his earpiece? He's definitely FBI. There's no other reason why a man would be wearing an earpiece.
Man: Oh, don't punt, you've got one yard to go.
Hyde: Guys, I've read about this. That's the recon guy. He's the one that plants the bugs.
Fez: [gasps] I hate bugs. Is it on me? Is it on me?
Hyde: No, not... Like a bug, like a microphone.
Eric: Oh, my God. [holds up vacuum] We've been infiltrated.

Quote from Fez

Eric: Guys, if this vacuum is bugged, the FBI could be listening to us right now.
Fez: Well, I think the important thing is to stick together.
Eric: You know what? You are absolutely right, Fez. This is all for one and one for all. [whispers to vacuum] You're looking for Michael Kelso.
Kelso: Quit it.
Eric: No, I'm not gonna quit it, okay? This is all your fault. You called the White House.
Kelso: My fault? This is my... This is Hyde's fault 'cause he's the one who got dumped by Jackie so we had to be nice to him.
Fez: Hey, hey, hey, go easy on the kid. Letting go of Jackie was the biggest mistake he ever made. Remember, we were talking about it earlier, behind his back?
Hyde: Shut up, Fez. If I wanted your advice, I'd kick you in the nads.
Fez: Oh, in that case, my advice is please don't kick me in the nads.

Quote from Red

Red: You know, I don't even care if the fish aren't biting 'cause nothing could beat hanging out with my girl.
Kitty: Well, in that case, I have another idea for a game. It's like 20 questions but sexy. I call it sexy 20 questions.
Red: Okay, I'll ask the questions. Is it something I want?
Kitty: Every Saturday, twice on Christmas.
[As Red and Kitty kiss, Red's fishing rod rattles]
Red: I got a bite.
[Red pushes Kitty off the chair and rushes to grab his fishing rod]

Quote from Jackie

Instructor: Good, Donna-san. Jackie-san, would you like to try the move that Donna-san just performed?
Jackie: Ugh. But none of this self-defense stuff applies to me. Okay, I've said it before, and I'll say it again. Everyone loves me.
Instructor: You don't understand. I am a stranger who wants to hurt you.
Jackie: I'm not buying it.
Donna: Okay, Jackie, let's say he's not a stranger. Let's say he's someone who already hurt you. Like Hyde.
Jackie: What about him?
Donna: Well, you asked Hyde for a tiny glimmer of hope that you guys would end up married one day. But he said, "I don't know." "I don't know." As if Jackie Burkhart weren't special at all.
Jackie: Watch it, Donna.
Donna: I mean... I mean, I thought Jackie Burkhart was special. But according to Hyde, you're no better than me.
Jackie: All men are bastards! [attacks instructor] That jerk didn't want me! I'm better than everyone! Hyde, you've lost the best thing when you lost me! And it's not Jackie-san! It's Jackie! Just Jackie! Nothing more than Jackie! Get it right, Dork-san! Oh, I love karate.

Quote from Eric

Fez: Wait a minute, it's just a dogcatcher van.
Eric: Well, hello, that's exactly what the Feds want us to think.
Fez: But I just heard dogs barking inside.
Hyde: It's obviously a tape recording of trained dogs. The barking's too self-conscious.
Kelso: Plus, a dogcatcher van wouldn't just say "dog catcher" on the side of it, 'cause otherwise the dogs would see it and just run away.
Eric: On three. One, two, three!
[A group of dogs run out of the van when the guys open the back doors]
Fez: I don't understand.
Hyde: Look, I don't know if it's the fresh air talking, but I'm starting to think this whole thing's just our imagination.
Eric: You know what, you guys, maybe we just need to let this whole fantasy world of ours go. [swinging light saber] Whoa. Watch out, man, I almost just cut you right in half there.

Quote from Eric

Jackie: Oh, my God, there was a pack of wild dogs loose. I had to climb to the top of this giant thing to get away from them. [sighs]
Donna: That was me.
Fez: Dogs, huh?
Donna: What did you do?
Eric: Nothing. We... Kelso thought there was a death ray, so we called the White House, and the Feds came, but... [sighs] It was just a vacuum.
Donna: Okay, I'm cutting you guys off. Where's your stash?
Kelso: It's all gone, man.
