EDIT

Episode Summary

Elly May is preparing for her first day of the Willows, a finishing school Mrs. Drysdale recommended where she hopes the girls will offend Elly and run the Clampetts out of town. Jane hears of Mrs. Drysdale's plan and decides to prevent Elly from being hurt. She poses as a fashion expert who has heard that the famous trendsetter Elly May Clampett is going to the school. In doing so, one girl, Cynthia Fenwick, wants to acquire Elly's hillbilly look. Elly returns home early, and the family decides to invite Cynthia over. When she hears this, Cynthia is very excited and tells her mother how the Clampetts are the top trendsetters, and they accept. But the clan misunderstands the Fenwicks, thinking they've fallen on hard times. They bring them clothes and after mistaking their gardener's place for their house, decide to bring furniture. Mrs. Drysdale sees them packing and believes her neighbors are finally moving and helps them pack. Cynthia calls to say they can't make it, and Jed invites them over for tomorrow. Jed tells Mrs. Drysdale that she can stop moving furniture, and after she leaves, Granny tells Jed she emptied most of the rooms.moreless
