TO SLEEP LAST NIGHT

AND I HEAR'D THEM TALKIN'

DOWN BY THE DOOR.

ALL THE WAY
FROM YOUR BEDROOM?

WELL, MY WINDER WAS OPEN.

THAT'S STILL A POWERFUL
LONG WAYS TO HEAR.

NOT IF YOU CLIMB
OUT INTO A TREE

AND SHIMMY DOWN A WAYS.

YOU HEARD SONNY ASKING
ELLY TO GET ENGAGED?

PLAIN AS DAY.

SONNY SAID, "ELLY, YOU GONNA
BE HOME IN THE MORNING?"

AND ELLY SAID, "YES."

SONNY SAID, "I'LL GIVE
YOU A RING AT TEN O'CLOCK."

WELL, DOGGIES.

WELL IT'S PRETTY
NEAR STRAIGHT UP FOR
TEN RIGHT NOW.

(PHONE RINGING)

HELLO.

OH, GOOD MORNIN’, SON,

I MEAN SONNY.

YEAH, ELLY'S HERE.

WHY DON'T YOU COME ON OVER?

OH, YOU WANT TO TALK
TO HER ON THE TELEPHONE?

WELL, JUST A MINUTE.

CAN'T GIVE A GIRL
NO RING ON THE TELEPHONE.

TELEPHONE, ELLY.

OKAY, PA.

I'LL GET IT UP HERE.

GRANNY.

YOU HADN'T OUGHTA
BE LISTENING.

WELL IT'S ALOT EASIER

THAN SHIMMYING DOWN
A TREE IN THE DARK.

I TORE MY NIGHTGOWN.

I SENT A BUNCH OF THESE
BACK HOME TO COUSIN PEARL.

WHAT FOR?

WELL, YOU KNOW HOW
SHE WAS ALWAYS BRAGGIN'

ABOUT HER DAUGHTER JETHRENE

GOIN' TO BEAT
ELLY MAY TO THE ALTAR?

YEAH.

I SURE WOULD LIKE TO SEE
THE LOOK ON PEARL'S FACE

WHEN SHE SEES THIS.

JETHRENE, LOOK AT THIS!

AND I ALWAYS BRAGGED

THAT YOU COULD BEAT
ELLY MAY TO THE ALTAR.

I CAN, MA.

I CAN OUTRUN ELLY MAY,

MY LEGS IS LONGER.

OH...

LOOK, WE GOTTA GET BUSY.

NOW WHAT TIME'S THAT JASPER
FELLA COMIN' TO COURT YOU?

SIX O'CLOCK.

HE'S TAKING ME OUT IN HIS CAR.

OH, NO HE AIN'T.

HE'S COURTIN' YOU
RIGHT HERE IN MY PARLOR

WHERE I CAN SEE TO IT

THAT HE GETS TO THE POINT.

WELL THAT'S WHERE
HE'S TAKING ME MA,

PERKIN'S POINT.

THEY'S A BARN DANCE THERE.

I'M TALKING ABOUT THE POINT

OF PROPOSING TO YA.

DON'T YOU WANT TO GET
YOURSELF A HUSBAND?

YES'M.

JETHRENE, WHY COULDN'T
YOU HAVE BEEN BORN

WITH SOME OF MY BRAINS

INSTEAD OF JUST MY BEAUTY.

‘COURSE, I GOTTA ADMIT THAT,

YOU AIN'T QUITE
AS PURDY AS ELLY MAY.

I AIN'T EVEN AS
PURDY AS HER FELLA.

YOU ARE SO!

(KNOCK ON DOOR)

HI, SONNY.

HI, STEP-DAD.

WELL, HOW ARE YOU

AND ELLY MAY CLAMPETT
GETTING ALONG?

MARVELOUSLY.

SHE'S MAD ABOUT ME.

OH?

HOW DO YOU FEEL?

THE SAME.

REALLY?

I'M MAD ABOUT ME, TOO.

NO, HOW DO YOU
FEEL ABOUT HER?

OH, SHE'S FUN, STEP-DAD.

I LIKE HER LOTS.

I'M GOING OVER THERE NOW

AND TAKE HER FOR A DRIVE.

GOOD, GOOD.

HER FATHER HAS
$25 MILLION DOLLARS

IN MY BANK YOU KNOW.

YES, I KNOW.

SHE'S A QUITE
A BEAUTIFUL GIRL,

DON'T YOU THINK?

OH, RAVISHING.

YOU KNOW, I UNDERSTAND
THESE HUNTING GIRLS

MAKE PERFECTLY
WONDERFUL WIVES

STRONG, HEALTHY,

NOT AFRAID OF A LITTLE WORK.

SO I UNDERSTAND.

YOU KNOW, SONNY,

I HAVE A POSITION
OPENING DOWN AT MY BANK.

OH, IT'S NOT
MUCH TO START WITH,

BUT ADVANCEMENT COULD
BE RAPID WITH MY HELP.

CERTAINLY IT WOULD BE ENOUGH

TO RENT A NICE APARTMENT,

SETTLE DOWN,

TAKE UP HOUSEKEEPING.

WHY DON'T YOU THINK IT OVER

AND DISCUSS IT WITH ELLY MAY.

ALL RIGHT.

BUT WITH ALL THE
MONEY HER FATHER HAS,

I DOUBT SERIOUSLY

IF SHE'D WANT TO
WORK AT YOUR BANK.

YOU GOT SOMETHING
TO SHOW US, ELLY MAY?

YEAH, HOLD OUT YOUR HAND,

LET US TAKE A LOOK.

THEY'S CLEAN, PA,
I WASHED THEM WITH SOAP.

NO RING?

NO, GRANNY, I WASHED THEM

ALL THE WAY UP TO HERE.

SONNY DRYSDALE DIDN'T GIVE
YOU NO ENGAGEMENT RING?

SHUCKS NO, PA.

WHY WOULD HE WANT TO DO THAT?

HE'S GONNA TAKE ME DRIVING.

THAT'S BAD.

OUT DRIVING IN BROAD DAYLIGHT

AIN'T NO WAY TO GET ENGAGED.

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

I PROPOSED TO YOUR
DAUGHTER OUT DRIVING.

IN A HORSE AND BUGGY

THAT'S A HEAP DIFFERENT.

BESIDES THAT
OL' MARE OF YOURS

KNEW RIGHT WHERE
SHE WAS GOING.

THAT WAY YOU COULD
TURN YOUR ATTENTION

ON ROSE ELLEN.

THAT'S THE TRUTH.

BUT OUT DRIVING
IN AN AUTOMOBILE

IN CITY TRAFFIC

WITH ALL THEM CARS

TRYING TO HIT YA,

BY THE TIME YOU
TURN YOUR HEAD TO SAY,

"WILL YA,"

SOMEBODY HAS.

THERE'S NO TWO WAYS ABOUT IT,

THAT CHILD IS
GOING TO NEED HELP

TO TRAP THAT
SONNY DRYSDALE.

ELLY MAY DON'T NEED TO
TRAP NO MAN TO GET HIM.

EVERY MAN THAT EVER GOT GIT,

WAS GIT THAT WAY.

NOT ME.

WE JUST HAPPENED TO STOP
UNDER A SHADY ELM TREE

AND I PROPOSED
TO YOUR DAUGHTER

ON THE SPUR OF THE MOMENT.

THAT SPUR OF THE
MOMENT OF YOURS

TOOK US SIX MONTHS
SCHEMING AND PLANNING.

WHY WE EVEN TRAINED
THAT OL' MARE OF YOURS

TO STOP UNDER THAT

SHADY OLD ELM TREE.

WELL, ANY TRAPPING WILL HAVE
TO BE UP TO YOU, GRANNY.

I WOULDN'T KNOW
WHAT TO DO EXCEPTIN'

I HELD A SHOTGUN ON SONNY.

WELL, I'LL STUDY ON IT.

THEM CITY FELLERS
MIGHT BE DIFFERENT.

(DOORBELL RINGING)

(DOORBELL RINGING)

JED, DO YOU RECKON
WE'LL EVER FIND OUT

WHERE THAT MUSIC COMES FROM?

I RECKON,
IF WE KEEP A LOOKIN'.

(DOORBELL RINGING)

YOU'RE WASTIN' YOUR TIME

LOOKIN' FOR THAT THERE MUSIC.

I'VE LOOKED FOR
IT A DOZEN TIMES,

AND BEFORE YOU CAN FIND IT

SOMEBODY'LL COME
RAPPIN' AT THE DOOR.

(DOOR KNOCKING)

SEE?

TOLD YA.

OH, HI SONNY.

GREETINGS ALL.

ELLY MAY READY?

SHE SURE IS.

SHE'S BEEN READY

SINCE SHE'S BEEN FOURTEEN.

I BEG YOUR PARDON?

OH, ELLY MAY, SONNY'S HERE.

WHAT WE WANT TO KNOW IS,

ARE YOU READY?

GRANNY.

WELL, I SURE HOPE YOU YOUNG
FOLKS HAVE A DANDY DRIVE.

OH, WE SHALL.

I PLAN TO TAKE ELLY ON A

SOCIALLY SIGNIFICANT DRIVE

THROUGH BRENTWOOD
AND BELLAIRE

TO SHOW HER SOME OF
OUR DEPRESSED AREAS.

HOWDY, SONNY.

ELLY MAY!

YOU LOOK POSITIVELY DIVINE.

SO DO YOU, SONNY.

I KNOW.

DON'T YOU BITE ME.

ELLY MAY, A KISS ON THE HAND

IS A VERY PROPER GREETING.

OH.

COME ON, EVERYBODY,

KISS SONNY'S HAND.

PLEASE, NEVER MIND,

WE'RE ON OUR WAY.

WELL, HAVE A
NICE DRIVE, Y'ALL.

YEP, AND IF YOU PASS
UNDER A SHADY ELM TREE,

IT WON'T HURT NONE

TO STOP FOR A SPELL.

THERE THEY GO.

QUICK, JETHRO,
START UP THE TRUCK

WHILE I GET MY RETICULE.

WHERE YOU GOING?

TO FOLLOW 'EM.

NO HOLD ON, YOU TWO,

YOU CAN'T FOLLOW
SONNY, HE'LL SEE YA.

THEY WON'T KNOW WHO WE ARE,

WE'LL BE WEARING DARK GLASSES.

HE'LL THINK WE'RE A COUPLE
OF BEVERLY HILLS MOVIE STARS

OUT FOR A DRIVE.

COME ON OFF THAT TRUCK.

COME ON.

JETHRENE, DID YOU POUR
THE FUDGE OUT TO COOL?

YEAH, MA,

BUT I'M AFRAID IT
AIN'T GONNA GET HARD.

WELL, IF IT DON'T

YOU AND JASPER CAN
EAT IT WITH SPOONS

AND I'LL TELL HIM I MADE IT.

YOU DONE DRESSING?

YEAH, MA.

WELL, COME ON IN HERE

AND LET ME SEE HOW YOU LOOK.

TURN AROUND,
LET ME SEE YOUR SASH,

LET ME GET THE BOW STRAIGHT.

NOW, I WANT YOU TO BRING
OUT THEM PILLOW CASES

YOU BEEN EMBROIDERIN'
FOR YOUR HOPE CHEST.

THE ONES WITH "HIS" AND
"HERS" WORKING FRENCH KNOTS.

NEVER HURT NONE TO LET A BEAU

SEE YOU'RE
HANDY WITH A NEEDLE.

BUT I AIN'T.

I ALWAYS STICK MYSELF.

WELL IF YOU DO,

DON'T BLEED ON
THE PILLOW CASE

WHERE HE'LL SEE IT.

NOW, WHEN YOU SHOW HIM
THE STEREO OPTICAN PICTURES

THESE IS THE ONES
I'VE PICKED OUT FOR YOU.

THEY'LL PUT HIM
IN THE RIGHT MOOD.

NIAGARA FALLS BY MOONLIGHT,

WEDDIN' UNDER THE BOWER,

THE STOLEN KISS.

LILLIAN RUSSELL IN TIGHTS.

OH NEVER MIND.

WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO PLAY
ON THE PUMP ORGAN FOR HIM

TO SHOW OFF
YOUR MUSIC TALENTS?

HOW ABOUT, RUSSELL O' SPRING.

THAT'S A DANDY!

FULL OF RUNS AND TRILLS,

AND THEN THERE'S A PART

WHERE YOU CROSS YOUR HANDS.

OH, I TELL YOU, JETHRENE,

THAT'S ONE PLACE YOU GOT IT

OVER YOUR COUSIN ELLY MAY,

PLAYIN' THE PUMP ORGAN.

THEM HANDS CAN STRETCH
PERT NEAR TWO OCTAVES,

AND THEM FEET
IS MADE FOR PUMPING.

WELL, IT'S ALMOST TIME
FOR JASPER TO GET HERE.

HOW DO YOU FEEL DARLIN'?

I FEEL LIKE I'M
GOING TO THROW UP.

NOW, JED.

ELLY AND SONNY
WILL BE HERE ON THE SETTEE,

AND WHEN HE GETS ON HIS
KNEE AND PROPOSES TO HER

AND ELLY SAYS YES,

YOU COME A RUNNIN’
FROM THAT DOOR

AND I'LL COME
A RUNNIN' FROM THAT DOOR

SO'S WE'LL HAVE
HIM BETWIXT US

AND HE CAN'T BACK OUT.

GRANNY, I DON'T WANT TO
BE LISTENIN' AT NO DOOR,

AND I DON'T THINK YOU
HAD OUGHTA NEITHER.

JED CLAMPETT.

NO WONDER YOUR
DAUGHTER'S CROWDING 18

AND STILL AN OLD MAID.

WHY IF WE DON'T GET BUSY

HER COUSIN JETHRENE

WILL BEAT HER TO
THE ALTAR BY A MILE.

SHE WON'T NEITHER.

ELLY MAY'S A LOT
PURDIER THAN JETHRENE.

LOOKS AIN'T EVERYTHING.

BESIDES, JETHRENE
HAS PEARL HELPING HER

AND PEARL'S PARLOR,

AND THAT'S THE STYLIEST

AND BEST COURTIN'
PARLOR IN THE WHOLE COUNTY.

I DON'T SEE NOTHIN’
WRONG WITH THIS PARLOR.

OH, THAT'S
‘CAUSE YOU'RE A MAN.

THIS AIN'T GOT NO STYLE TOIT.

AIN'T GOT NO LACE CURTAINS,

AND AIN'T GOT NO PORTIERES.

AIN'T GOT NO
TIDIES OR DOILIES.

AIN'T EVEN GOT A PUMP ORGAN.

GOT A PIE-ANNY.

A PIE-ANNY AIN'T IN IT!

WITH A PUMP ORGAN,

WHEN IT COMES TO COURTIN'

THEY'S GOT A QUIVER TOIT,

JUST DRIVES A MAN WILD!

AND THERE AIN'T NOTHIN
THAT STIRS A MAN

LIKE SEEIN' A WOMAN
PUMPIN' A PUMP ORGAN.

I WISH SONNY AND
ELLY MAY'D GET BACK.

WONDER WHAT'S KEEPING THEM?

MY BABY SHOES.

AREN'T THEY CUNNING?

AWFULLY STIFF.

I DON'T SEE HOW YOU
EVER WALKED IN THEM.

MOTHER HAD THEM BRONZED.

DIDN'T HELP MUCH,

THEY'RE STILL STIFF.

WHAT'S THIS THING?

OH, THAT'S MY TEDDY BEAR.

HIS NAME IS POOH.

WOULD YOU LIKE TO KISS HIM?

WELL NOT 'SPECIALLY.

I GUESS YOU'D RATHER KISS ME.

I'LL KISS THE BEAR.

I GUESS YOU'RE NOT
IN A VERY ROMANTIC MOOD.

A LITTLE MUSIC
WILL REMEDY THAT.

DO YOU LIKE TO DANCE?

I AIN'T NEVER TRIED.

WELL YOU'RE IN FOR
A DIVINE EXPERIENCE.

I'LL TEACH YOU.

NOW WATCH.

HOW DO I LOOK?

LIKE SOMETHING'S
A HURTIN' YOU.

MAYBE IT'S THEM ROSE THORNS

STICKING IN YOUR GUMS.

ENOUGH OF THESE PRELIMINARIES!

COME HERE, MY DEAR.

ARE YOU FRIGHTENED?

NO, HAD I OUGHTA BE?

YES, YOU'RE IN GREAT DANGER.

HOW COME?

YOU'RE IN A MAN'S ROOM, ALONE.

NO I AIN'T.

YOU'RE HERE.

YOU ARE NOT PLAYING THE GAME!

YOU FEELING SICK TO
YOUR STOMACH, DARLING?

YEAH, MA.

WELL, I WENT
DOWN TO THE CELLAR

AND I DRAW'D OFF SOME
HOME MADE ELDERBERRY WINE.

AIN'T NOTHING IN
THE WORLD BETTER

FOR SETTLING A QUEASY STOMACH.

‘COURSE, ACCORDING
TO THE RULES

YOU SHOULDN'T TOUCH SPIRITS
TILL YOUR WEDDIN' DAY,

BUT I GUESS IN
CASE OF AN EMERGENCY

A LITTLE SWALLOW WON'T HURT.

I KNOW IT'S A MIGHT
BITTER TASTING,

BUT TRY AND
FORCE A LITTLE DOWN.

IT'LL MAKE YOU FEEL BETTER.

JUST A LITTLE MORE, JETHRENE,

DO IT FOR YOUR MA.

JASPER WILL BE
HERE ANY MINUTE NOW.

FEELING BETTER?

A LITTLE.

I'VE GOT IT FIGURED

HOW WE GET YOU TO PLAY
THE PUMP ORGAN FOR HIM.

I KNOW JUST WHAT HE'LL
SAY WHEN HE WALKS IN

‘CAUSE EVERYBODY DOES.

HE'LL SAY,

"WHY, I DECLARE!

THAT'S A MIGHTY FANCY
PUMP ORGAN YOU GOT THERE."

AND I'LL SAY,
"WHY THANK YOU.

I'M MIGHTY PARTIAL
TO PUMP ORGAN MUSIC."

AND THEN YOU SAY,

"WHY, I'LL PLAY SOMETHING."

AND THEN YOU SIT DOWN

AND YOU PLAY LIKE
YOU NEVER PLAYED BEFORE.

YOU UNDERSTAND?

YES'M.

(DOORBELL)

THERE HE IS.

YOU AIN'T GONNA
THROW UP ARE YA?

I'LL TRY NOT.

(HICCUP)

JETHRENE CAN BE
A LITTLE NERVOUS.

I RECKON IT'S THE STRAIN OF

ALL THOSE BEAUS

I SWEAR, I GOTTA SWEEP THEM
OUT OF THIS PARLOR EVERY DAY.

HEY, THAT'S A MIGHTY
FANCY PUMP ORGAN

FINE AND DANDY.

HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT ELLY?

I FIND HER BEAUTIFUL,

CHARMING,

REFRESHINGLY DIFFERENT,
