Episode Summary

Elly gets a job at Jed's movie studio, though Granny and Jane are against it. Both are worried about Elly getting involved in the Hollywood scene. Both have heard stories from a girl who works in a flower mill. Elly gets there and meets actor Dash Riprock. He goes for her straight off, but is unaware that this is the girl he will be starring with, having been told he'll be opposite the studio owner's daughter, Miss Clampett. When he goes to visit Miss Clampett in her dressing room, Jane answers, and he thinks that this is Elly May Clampett. After seeing her, he tries to get out of starring with this woman. But he has to romance Elly, and ends up hitting on Miss Jane.moreless

    That seems to be the recurring joke this episode. Granny knows the stories extremely second hand through Elverna Bradshaw, Mrs. Hathaway has a cousin there and Dash Riprock has an aunt at the mill. I'd get the Season Three DVD of the series for this episode alone. We never hear just what those stories are, but it is quite obvious that there's something sinister about them. The main plot is about getting dash together with Elly, but Dash seems to have confused her with Hathaway. The confusion is a bit contrived; the dialogue awkwardly created to keep up the confusion than correct it, but it sure is funny to watch.moreless

    • Apparently, everyone is connected to the girl from the flower mill in Springfield, since Granny, Jane, and Dash all are connected to the Hollywood stories from the girl. Dash's aunt works at the flower mill, Jane's neighbor's cousin works at the flower mill, and Granny knows someone who has heard stories from the girl from various sources. Edit
