The Family Tree

Pearl and Jethro think that Jed should get a new fancy car, but he's happy with the truck. Pearl would also like to get the family into high society. Margaret tells Milburn that Mrs. Priscilla Smith-Standish, the head of a 'first family' historical society, will be staying at their house. Drysdale is not impressed. Margaret wants to get rid of the Clampett's before her arrival. She goes to the Clampetts, insults Granny and is chased away by Granny and Pearl. Smith-Standish goes to the Clampett's first and becomes enchanted with their antiques and way of life. Margaret goes to the bank and tells Drysdale what the Clampett's did to her. She insists that he get rid of them. Miss Jane tells Margaret that the chauffeur dropped Priscilla off at the Clampett's because he thought Margaret was there. Miss Jane drives the Drysdale's to the Clampett's. Priscilla tells Margaret that she found evidence that Jed's ancestors came to America prior to the arrival of the Mayflower. She ropes Margaret into helping Granny with the chores done the old fashioned way, much to Margaret's horror. Drysdale is enjoying seeing Margaret have to work that way.
