The Clampetts learn that some of the bank employees are sick, so the clan decides to go down to the bank and offer Drysdale some help. Drysdale is getting ready for the Bankers' Convention, and the Clampetts take over his bank while he is away. Jed acts as the President, and Elly is the secretary. Granny goes over to Jane's apartment to help her get well, and Jethro gives Drysdale a speech the Gettysburg Address. Jed and Elly work on their new positions, as Drysdale gives his speech, which he formats with his own words, which impresses the audience. At the bank, a man stops by, Mr. Wilson, the to get money for his chicken ranch. Jed gives him the money, being glad to help out. When Drysdale returns, he tells Elly that there was a contest to find the nicest bank in Beverly Hills, and Wilson visited six banks that were secretly nominated, and the Commerce Bank won. Granny returns, handing out her medicine, and Bob Billington, who has been making a move on Elly, gets a taste, causing him to spasm, which Elly thinks it a dance he wanted to teach her.

The Beverly Hillbillies is an American situation comedy originally broadcast for nine seasons on CBS from 1962 to 1971, starring Buddy Ebsen, Irene Ryan, Donna Douglas, and Max Baer, Jr.

The series is about a poor backwoods family transplanted to Beverly Hills, California, after striking oil on their land. A Filmways production created by writer Paul Henning, it is the first in a genre of "fish out of water" themed television shows, and was followed by other Henning-inspired country-cousin series on CBS. In 1963, Henning introduced Petticoat Junction, and in 1965 he reversed the rags to riches model for Green Acres. The show paved the way for later culture-conflict programs such as McCloud, The Nanny, The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, and Doc. Panned by many entertainment critics of its time, it quickly became a huge ratings success for most of its nine-year run on CBS.

The Beverly Hillbillies ranked among the top twenty most watched programs on television for eight of its nine seasons, twice ranking as the number one series of the year, with a number of episodes that remain among the most watched television episodes of all time.

The ongoing popularity of the series spawned a 1993 film remake by 20th Century Fox.

In 1997, the episode "Hedda Hopper's Hollywood" was ranked #62 on TV Guide's 100 Greatest Episodes of All Time.
