"It Was a Dark and Stormy Night" is the season seven premiere of Full House.
On the last day of summer camp, Michelle brings the camp's pet rabbit Gilbert home, forcing the girls to bring him back on a rainy night.
Tropes:
- Choke Holds: Steve has Joey in an uptight hold due to having the latter Mistaken for Undead. He lets go only after Danny, having managed to identify himself to the girls and Steve before the girls try to attack him, clarifies to Steve.Danny: Uh, Steve... you caught the wrong maniac. [shines the flashlight on Joey's face]
Steve: Oh, hi, Joey. [releases hold] - Covered in Mud: This happens to Joey while he and Danny search for the girls and Steve in the campsite and is part of why he's Mistaken for Undead.
- It's Probably Nothing: After returning to the summer campground on a rainy night, the girls and Steve start to hear some moaning noises. Steve tries to clam everyone down by saying it's "just the wind", but it doesn't work as intended.Stephanie: Just the wind? Just the wind?! It's never JUST THE WIND!
- It Was a Dark and Stormy Night: Doubles as a Title Drop, it is also what occurs when the girls try to bring Gilbert back to the camp.
- Mistaken for Undead: When Joey comes to the cabin, the girls and Steve think he is the "Cropsy Maniac" and attack him.
- Pain to the Ass: Joey's Amusing Injury at the end of the episode is due to him accidentally sitting on freshly-made hot fudge that sticks to his posterior.
