handling only one the Beast of Beverly

Hills Mr Drysdale in spite of the fact

that we have a written contract he

continues to mistreat the girls at the

bank Miss Jane you won't make a whooping

for you well I don't think that'll be

necessary your very presence Among Us

Alexa what's it going to do with being a

secretary Chad didn't you ever see Theta

Barra an office wife

lunch hour

secretary wonderful bye

[Music]

I wonder how Mr Clampett feels about his

only daughter becoming a working girl oh

he's all in favor of it says granny they

see it as an opportunity for Ellie to

attract a man I hope she attracts too

I think three would be nice

gee I hope she doesn't wear those blue

jeans oh there's no danger of that

Granny has promised in her own words to

fix her up to look like a secretary

well good

in here Ellie

[Music]

[Laughter]

[Music]

is that you Annie

sorry where did you get that outfit I

pearl left the whole trunk full of

clothes like this at our house

it's right out of the 20s she's a

complete anachronism

[Music]

what was it we go walking

did granny teach you that yes ma'am and

I roll it and Laps it

what a granny considers those the three

fundamentals of Secretarial training

[Music]

what's going on in here who's this

floozy Chief this girl is not a floozy

the new girl for the secretarial pool

dressed like that are you out of your

mind

[Music]

say to this young lady young lady she

looks like a reject my Rudolph Valentino

movie and a bad one Mr Drysdale you're

going to regret speaking in this manner

are you gonna throw her out or am I oh

no Chief I think okay that catch it out

out

and stay out

all right but granny ain't gonna like

what you said

but you don't

big deal

I've heard that voice before you

was

[Music]

Ellie darling don't be mad at Uncle

Milby I was just having a little fun I

knew who you were all the time

on the worst worst I was gonna really be

mad at you now oh no please

raise immediately

oh shut down

I'm sorry she showed up at the bank

looking like that all's well that ends

well I sure hope she meets some photos

now that she's a working girl

so do I but uh I'm afraid this Mansion

somewhat destroys the image of a working

girl what you mean

any man who courts Ellie Mae Clampett is

certain to be called a fortune Hunter

after her for her money

it's something I've been meaning to

mention for some time but frankly I

don't have a solution granny and Ellie

seemed right took with that apartment of

yours you reckon there's another one in

the same building well I'm afraid there

are no vacancies now but if you like she

can move in with me until one comes up

wait till you see

to toe thank you Granny
