It's tomato planting season and Oliver needs useful weather information. Hooterville relies on WPIXL-TV's Mildred, a little old lady who prances out of her dollhouse, or Walter, the singing weatherman. Both are always wrong so Oliver contacts the Weather Bureau which predicts warm days and nights. The plants are in the ground when Hooterville suffers the coldest night of the year. Lisa's crepe suzettes that save the crop from the cold.

Mildred, the little old lady, predicted flooding while Walter, the singing weatherman, predicted drought. The weather service called for clear and warm. The only accurate forecast came from Kimball's "Farmer's Almanac", written by Franklin Benjamin.
Lisa's crepe suzettes are just her hotscakes set on fire.
Walter the singing weatherman is on Pixley radio station WTBZF.
The weather predicting little old woman and man on WPIXL are pearched atop Buley's Car Wash.

Lisa: Don't you want to watch the movie with me?
Oliver: Tell me later. I want to hear how Fay Wray turned out with King Kong.
(after the little man comes out of the clock) TV Announcer: The views expressed by the little man and the little old lady do not express the views of this station.
Lisa: (after Oliver tells Eb to take off his bathing suit) He might be arrested for undecent explosion!
Lisa watches the Fay Wray movie on the Pixley TV station. She informs Oliver that Fay was taken to the top of the "Umpire State Building". King Kong is the famous 1933 film starring actress Fay Wray, who became famous as the movie's first "scream queen" for her constant shrieking in the movie.
