The Beverly Hillbillies: Drysdale acquires a baby hippopotamus, which the Clampetts see and mistake for a giant hog. However, Elly May knows the difference, realizing that this is a hippo. Granny is desperate to become the owner of this “hawg,” knowing how much meat this critter will provide. Drysdale agrees to sell it to the Clampetts, but Granny thinks the price is too high. She decides to haggle with Drysdale, who offers the hippo/hog for free, but Granny wants to haggle and does. She ends up paying fifty dollars for it, but decides to give the hog back for the “long nosed calf,” actually a baby elephant. But in the end, Drysdale gives both the animals to the zoo, painting bank promo children’s rhymes on both animals.
