The Beverly Hillbillies - The Race for Queen - Season 2 Episode 19

Jethro is working in the hole that will be Granny's root cellar. He thinks he struck oil. Jed doesn't need more oil and they start to fill in the hole. Mr. Drysdale learns that Candy Davis (Susan Hart), one of the Commerce Bank secretaries, will be a contestant for Queen of Beverly Hills. When Margaret hears that the winner gets a trip around the world, she suggests Elly should run. That way the family would be gone for a while. Jethro tries digging in a different spot, but hits oil again. Milburn thinks the Clampetts are digging the hole to put their money in. He tells Granny about the advantages of the vault at the bank and Granny thinks he means to use as her root cellar. Miss Jane suggests to Jed that Elly run for Queen. The Clampetts think the race for the Queen is an actual foot race. So, Granny wants to run as well. Mr. Drysdale tries to talk Candy out of running, while Miss Jane gets Granny to not run. Robert Cummings, the Contest Announcer, names Candy and Elly as the finalists. Milburn states that Candy has withdrawn, but the bank will pay for a trip around the world for her. Miss Jane will take Candy's place in the contest. Elly states that she'd rather have Miss Jane win. Robert announces fellow judge Karen Crandall as the winner. John Alvin as Harry Barth.
