<P> Tony 's best friend and fellow astronaut , United States Army Corps of Engineers Captain Roger Healey , does not know about Jeannie for several episodes ; when he finds out ( in the episode `` The Richest Astronaut in the Whole Wide World '' ( January 15 , 1966 ) ) , he steals her so he can live in luxury , but not for long before Tony reclaims his status as Jeannie 's master . Roger is often shown trying to make a quick buck or girl - crazy , and hopes to claim Jeannie so he can use her to live a princely life or gain beautiful girlfriends , but overall he is respectful that Tony is Jeannie 's master , and later her husband . Both Tony and Roger are promoted to the rank of major late in the first season . In later seasons , Roger 's role is retconned to portray him knowing about Jeannie from the beginning ( i.e. , to him having been with Tony on the space flight that touched down , and thus having seen Jeannie introduce herself to Tony ) . </P>
