Episode Summary

When the Clampetts learn that Mrs. Drysdale is in the hospital, they decide to visit her to make sure she is getting cured. Little do they know, she is doing this in spite of her husband, and won't leave the hospital until the Clampetts leave Beverly Hills. They visit her, not knowing she is sleeping in a dark, gloomy room for a reason. They try to make it more cheerful for when she wakes up, even moving the bed so it faces the window. Jethro plays with the buttons on the bed, causing the bed to rise and tilt, throwing Mrs. Drysdale out the window. The hospital staff thinks she is trying to escape. The Clampetts visit two more times, and each time Jethro messes with the buttons, causing their neighbor to fly out the window. The last time they see this, and they take Mrs. Drysdale home with them.moreless

      • (The Clampetts are visiting Mrs. Drysdale to give her Granny's medicine) Jethro: Granny, you gonna leave your medicine here? Granny: Of course not. It takes a first class doctor to give that, and you ain't likely to find one of them in a hospital. Edit
      • (Mrs. Drysdale is telling the doctor about the Clampetts) Mrs. Drysdale: Their goat once ate my hat, while driving down Wilshire Boulevard. Dr. Stuyvesant: The goat was driving down Wilshire Boulevard? Mrs. Drysdale: No, no. Jethro. You see, they insisted on driving me to the bank, and Elly thrust this baby goat in my arms. Dr. Stuyvesant: And it ate your hat? Mrs. Drysdale: No. Her mother ate my hat. Dr. Stuyvesant: Elly's mother? Mrs. Drysdale: No, no. The goat's mother. Edit
      • (Jethro tells Jed about how his date asked if he would want to go sit on the sofa, and he said no. Jed asks why he didn't take the girl up on her offer. So Jethro says he didn't because he didn't want to sit alone.) Jed: Someday, I gotta have a long talk with you. Jethro: What about? Jed: Politics. Jethro: Oh, don't bother, Uncle Jed. I've done decided to be a brain surgeon. Jed: Too bad. Country's lost a great leader. Edit
