Ep 7. Mork Gets Mindy-itis

Mork and Mindy season 2 episode 7: Mork Gets Mindy-itis.

In this episode, Mork develops an illness called "Mindy-itis" after being exposed to a cold virus from Mindy. The symptoms of Mindy-itis include fever, chills, and irrational behavior. As the illness takes hold, Mork becomes more and more irrational, causing chaos in the apartment.

Mindy is worried about Mork's behavior and decides to call his planet for help. The Orkan doctor who answers the call suggests that the only way to cure Mork is for him to go back to his own planet and receive treatment. However, Mork is too sick to make the journey home.

Meanwhile, Exidor, a character from a previous episode, visits Mindy and offers to cure Mork. Exidor claims to be a doctor and promises to heal Mork with his "snake oil" treatment.

Mindy is reluctant to trust Exidor but desperate to help Mork, so she agrees to his treatment. Exidor's methods involve strange rituals, including burning incense and chanting, which make Mindy skeptical.

As the treatment progresses, Mork's symptoms begin to worsen, and Mindy becomes more worried. Eventually, she decides to confront Exidor about his methods and his credentials.

In the end, Mork recovers from Mindy-itis thanks to Mindy's care and attention, and Exidor is exposed as a fraud. The episode ends with Mork and Mindy reconciling and Exidor leaving, humiliated.

Overall, "Mork Gets Mindy-itis" is a fun and lighthearted episode that highlights the chemistry between Mork and Mindy, as well as the wacky world of Orkans and their strange customs. It also features a memorable role for Exidor, a character who would go on to appear in several more episodes of the show.
