I Dream of Jeannie: Never Try to Outsmart a Jeannie (1966) (TV)
Synopsis [spoilers]: Tony is being sent on a trip to the International Air Show in Rome. Jeannie wants to go but he won't take her with him. She insists and he finally agrees but she doesn't want to go inside the bottle, so he says she must get a passport; for that she must present a witness who knows her for more than two years, but she doesn't know anyone in the U.S.A. for more than six months. She overhears an elderly lady describe how her life was saved in 1931 in Chicago by a woman who made her duck before she was hit by some gangsters' bullets. Jeannie travels back in time and takes the place of the elderly lady's savior -- or induces a false memory in her, perhaps. It doesn't stick, though -- according to Jeannie's application she wasn't even born in 1931. So she decides to travel in the bottle.
