Hyde Moves In is the twenty-fourth episode of the first season of That '70s Show, and originally aired on July 19, 1999.

Hyde moves in with the Formans after his mom skips town with a truck driver.


Tropes:

  • Being Good Sucks: Red is not happy about letting Hyde stay with the family in "Hyde Moves In," as seen below.
  • Bread, Eggs, Breaded Eggs: During the credits scene, the gang is watching Fez making his goddess tattoo dance by shaking his hips:
    Hyde: That's incredible.
    Jackie: That's disgusting.
    Kelso: That's incredible and disgusting!
  • Cluster F-Bomb: Red after Kitty guilts him into letting Hyde stay:
    Red: Goddamnit! I'm tired of being fucking Santa Claus! Steven, you get your shit together, and you get your ass in the Goddamn car! We're going, fucker! Now, Goddamnit! Move it!
    Hyde: (clearly terrified) Okay! (runs out the room)
    Kitty: You are just the sweetest man alive. (leaves)
    Red: (takes one last look around Hyde's house) FUCK!
  • Gone Swimming, Clothes Stolen: How the episode opens.
  • Informed Flaw: Kelso freaks out when he sees Jackie sick and without makeup, and proceeds to refer to her as "ugly" and "gross", while to the viewer, she doesn't look any different.
  • Shoulders-Up Nudity: After the gang goes Skinny Dipping and has their clothes stolen, we see them all wet and naked in the car as they drive back home, but everyone's only seen from the shoulders up.
  • Social Services Does Not Exist: Edna's gone for weeks before the Formans step in.
  • Token Houseguest: Hyde becomes this for the Forman family at the end of the episode, living in their basement for much of the rest of the show.
