Oliver's really bad day starts when Kimball falls through the dry-rotted front porch and sprains his ankle. After Lisa moves the injured patient their bedroom to recuperate, he blows non-stop on his kazoo whenever he wants something. Ralph Monroe shows up wearing in a nurse's uniform from a theater production to care for her "Hankie" and throw herself at him while he can't run away. Self-appointed "attorney" Haney tries to soak Oliver with a $50,000 lawsuit, and local farmers bring their livestock into the bedroom for Kimball's animal clinic. Oliver finally storms out in search of a saloon.

Kimball plays lead in the Hooterville Kazoo and Drum Corp, which has been banned from performing in the city limits.
Kimball's self-appointed attorney tries to get Oliver to agree to a $50,000 out of court settlement for injuries. As he's being tossed out of the house, Haney offers to take $25 instead.
The same goat that's brought in to Kimball's animal clinic returns next week as one of Lisa's patients.
When the Hooterville Kazoo and Drum Corp comes in to serenade Kimball, they launch into the "Green Acres" theme song.
Final appearance of Mary Grace Canfield as Ralph Monroe.
