The Beverly Hillbillies - Elly Starts to School - Season 2 Episode 4

Mrs. Drysdale (Harriet MacGibbon) recommends Elly for a high-brow finishing school for girls. Elly doesn't want to go and doesn't want to wear a dress. Mrs. Drysdale calls and tells Jed it's OK for Elly to wear her pants and shirt. Miss Jane learns from Margaret that she wants Elly to go to that school in hopes that humiliating her will drive the Clampett's away. Miss Jane tries to convince the girls at the school that Elly is a fashion trend-setter. She then brings Elly home and tells Jed and Granny that the girls at that school aren't good enough for Elly. Elly invites the filthy rich Cynthia Fenwick (Joanna Barnes) and her mother (Doris Packer) over for dinner, thinking they're destitute. Thinking blue jeans are now high fashion, Cynthia tries to find some. Mrs. Fenwick calls to say they will be late because they can't find clothes. Jed sends Jethro and Elly over with some of theirs. Jethro and Elly think the tiny gate house is where the Fenwicks live. When they tell Jed what they saw, Jed decides to bring the Fenwicks furniture and other things. Margaret sees them loading the truck and thinks the Clampett's are moving. Cynthia finds the clothes that Elly left in the gate house and her and her mother put them on. When Mrs. Fenwick sees herself in jeans, she faints. Sharon Tate as Mary.
