I Dream of Jeannie: Get Me to Mecca on Time (1966) (TV)

Synopsis [spoilers]: Jeannie begins to feel ill; her powers begin to wane and parts of her body start to disappear. She finds out through Roger's astrology magazine that this is a special day for her, when all genii must go with theirs masters to Mecca where the latter must utter some magical words at a specific location, or else she will be sent back to Limbo. Tony tells Roger to keep Dr. Bellows busy pretending to be mad, and travels to Mecca with Jeannie. There, they find out that the place from which the magical words must be uttered is now located inside a bank, and they break in. The alarm goes off, and several policemen show up. Tony finally gets to say the words and Jeannie reacquires her powers, which she immediately uses to make the policemen disappear. Roger returns to meet Dr. Bellows, who by that time has diagnosed Roger with insanity and has placed him on a three year psychoanalysis program.

Saw it dubbed in Portuguese.
