16:05 in the episode. The actual line is "She'll probably wait 'till she gets home, then bust out ballin' like crazy. She'll be a real red blanket case."

The episode you saw is The Late Edition, per Me.tv's schedule for today, July 9. The reason you and I aere having this lovely exchange is because it is simply not believable that the term "red blanket" would be in a TV show so naively innocent as Leave It To Beaver. You're imagining things.

I listened to it twice. It sounds like that is what he says.

I apologize for hitting you so hard on this, but what you were claiming didn't sound right.

The episode of Adam 12 appears to be Season 4, Episode 19, entitled "Mary Hong Loves Tommy Chen."

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0505363/

There is a note on the imdb page, referencing the term "red blanket," which states

quote:
Did You Know?

Trivia
When EMTs pick up the injured officer at the beginning of the episode, they refer to him as a "red blanket " case. Red blanket treatment' of patients has historical roots in pre-WWII emergency medicine practice: a red blanket was placed over a patient triaged as needing rapid transfer to a place of higher-level treatment and attention.


New to me. I'm a former EMT/firefighter, ran on an ambulance and all that. I never heard the term before. When the original poster mentioned it, I thought may be it was a reference to the Jack Nicholson thing, "code red," or something along those lines. I wasn't even close.

Yes, Jim, you're fine and, once again, I apologize.

To compenate for this to at least a degree, I am offering you a CUT. A CUT is a Custom User Title. This replaces the word "Member" below your name on the left side of the screen. You may have the CUT of your choosing if you wish. It's only fair.

An example of a CUT is my "Peace through superior firepower". You may have whatever yu wish.

I would like that. Can I think about it before I choose?

I watched the episode and found it. Season 6, episode 4, about 18 minutes in. Beav went out to get the paperboy to talk to Ward. The kid wouldn't stop, so Beav tackled him and they wrestled around. Turns out the paperboy was a girl.
Beav was telling Wally about it...Wally said she go home and cry to her parents "You know what crybaby's girls are..." and Beav says, "Oh, she didn't cry". Wally says, "Those are the worst kind, she'll go home, start balling like crasy, she could be a real Red Blanket Case".

I googled the term, I got nothing.

In the last day or two saw the "adam 12" episode with the ambulance driver called out about the patient as "red blanket". Didn"t understand but now it makes sense. ......... Love watching
those old episodes with the car chases and when the bad guy starts to run away how fast they stop running hen they are confronted by Reed/and or/Malloy.........................drill sgt.

Seriously, I learn something new here almost every day. Navy never mentioned that in 1978 Hospital Corps School or Field Medical School when talking triage, makes sense to me.
