Granny has been depressed lately and just sits in the corner of the kitchen. The others try to rile Granny up, but nothing works. Jed arranges a party to cheer Granny up and invites the Drysdales and Miss Jane. Margaret doesn't want to go, but Milburn insists. Miss Jane tells Drysdale that the Chairman of the Board, Marty Van Ransohoff (Jim Backus), has arrived. Marty tells Drysdale that he's putting him on the Board of Directors. Marty wants to go along to the Clampetts. When Drysdale landed Jed's account he lied and told Marty how sophisticated they are. Hearing about the party does get Granny excited. Drysdale goes to speak with Jed. Not wanting Marty to see what the Clampetts are really like, Drysdale makes up a story as to why they can't come to dinner that evening. Drysdale doesn't know that Miss Jane just called Granny and told her that everyone, including Marty, will be coming by tonight. When Drysdale finds out, he's worried what Marty will do because he deceived him about the Clampetts. Miss Jane and Marty arrive at the mansion. Drysdale is too afraid to go to the party. Marty is thrilled with what he believes to be a "Hillbilly Party" thrown for him. He and Miss Jane even dress in Hillbilly clothes and have a great time.
