Frankie Goes to Rutherford is the nineteenth episode of the fifth season of the popular American sitcom 3rd Rock from the Sun. The show revolves around the Solomon family, a group of aliens who are sent to Earth to study and understand human behavior. In this episode, the Solomons are surprised to learn that Tommy's girlfriend, Missy, has an ex-boyfriend named Frankie who is coming to visit.

The episode begins with Tommy excitedly telling the other Solomons about Missy's upcoming visit with her ex-boyfriend, Frankie. As they discuss Frankie, they realize that they know very little about him and his past relationship with Missy. Curious to learn more, the Solomons decide to gather information about Frankie by using their alien powers to crawl through his mind.

Their investigation reveals some startling information about Frankie, including his abusive behavior towards Missy and his history with drugs. Worried about Missy's safety, the Solomons decide to take matters into their own hands and confront Frankie when he arrives in Rutherford.

As they prepare for Frankie's arrival, the Solomons try to come up with a plan to protect Missy from him. Sally and Harry decide to pose as Missy's parents, while Dick pretends to be her psychiatrist. Meanwhile, Tommy attempts to keep Missy away from Frankie by distracting her with various activities around town.

When Frankie finally arrives in Rutherford, the Solomons immediately realize that he is even more dangerous than they had imagined. His erratic behavior and violent tendencies make them fear for Missy's safety and they quickly move to protect her.

In the end, the Solomons are successful in preventing Frankie from causing Missy any harm, and he leaves Rutherford without incident. However, the experience leaves them with a newfound appreciation for the dangers of human relationships and the importance of protecting those we care about.

Overall, Frankie Goes to Rutherford is a humorous and engaging episode that highlights the unique perspective of the Solomons as they attempt to understand human behavior. It also touches on important themes related to domestic violence and the importance of protecting those we love.
