(Jane and Granny are talking about the beauty contest, and Jane says she won't be in it herself, making the Clampetts wonder why)
Jane: I'm hardly at my best in a bathing suit.
Granny: Bathing suit? Why would ya wear one of them things?
Jane: Well all the contestants have to wear bathing suits.
Granny: Not me!
Jane: But it's one of the rules!
Granny: Then I'm takin' myself outta the race.
Jed: I don't blame ya, Granny.
Granny: Why if I was to show up in one of them skimpy bathing suits, it might start the men folks to fightin' over me. And I hear tell that these city men are bold to begin with. One of them rascals might run up and grab me and hug me and kiss me and tote me off and marry me. And I just put myself back in the race. (edit)
(Granny and Elly run a foot race to prepare for the race for queen)
Granny: Who won, Jed?
Jed: Well, when ya passed me, 'ppears like Elly was out in front of you a little.
Granny: That don't mean nothin'. She's out in front of me standin' still. (edit)
(Jed tells Jane and Mr. Drysdale that someone from their family will run for Queen of Beverly Hills)
Mr. Drysdale: I heard, and I think Elly May will win.
Granny: Don't be tooooooooo sure.
Miss Jane: Who could possibly beat her?
Jed: Well, Granny's gonna try.
Mr. Drysdale & Miss Jane: What?!
Miss Jane:: Well, Granny, you haven't got a chance.
Granny: We'll see about that! My legs is every bit as good as Elly May's (edit)
