The Courtship Of Eddie's Father Season 3 Episode 6 The Bicycle Theft

To teach Eddie to be more responsible, Tom Corbett tells him he can't have a new bicycle after his old one is stolen. Tom takes Eddie to the police station where they report the theft to an unimpressed Officer Gifford, who chides Tom for not getting a license for the bike. Eddie wants to prove he is responsible and doggedly searches the neighborhood for his dilapidated two-wheeler. Seeing his efforts, Tom regrets having made an issue of the incident and wants to get him a new bike after all. Eddie, however, holds him to his word. Finally, Tom simply goes ahead and buys Eddie a bicycle, explaining he hastily took an unjust stand.
