[Hunnicut Farm: Liam is carrying a basket full of carrots to the vegetable stand. As he does, he is sweaty.]
Liam: "It's hotter than a heffer hoofin' down habaneros out here." [He grunts and places the carrots on the counter, then he wipes off his forehead as he hears a bicycle bell. Lincoln and Clyde pedal over on their bikes.] "Howdy, fellers."
Lincoln: "Hey, buddy!"
Clyde: "Hiya, pal! We know that weekends can get pretty busy on the farm." [He reaches into his backpack and pulls out a basket of muffins.] So, we wanted to bring over some breakfast muffins."
Liam: "Boy, that's mighty kind of y'all." [Liam reaches into his pocket and takes out an old-fashioned stone sundial on a chain.] "But it's 7:00 AM, that's dang near suppertime round here. We'll have 'em fer dessert."
[Over in the carrot field, Mimi is trying to pull out a carrot.]
Mimi: [straining] "Come on, ya stubborn--" [She pulls out the carrot, as well as a gopher. The gopher drops from the carrot.] "You go on and get now, Cletus." [Cletus runs off, but then the basket of carrots next to her starts shaking.] "Huh?" [A gush of oil shoots out of the ground and lifts her into the air.]
Liam: [runs over] "Hold tight, Mee-Maw! I'll go get the ladder!"
Mimi: "Yeah!" [cheers]
Lincoln: [He and Clyde run over to Liam.] "Liam, wait. I think she's...happy."
Mimi: "Don't you know what this is?" [The boys look at her and shake their heads in confusion.] "Oh, it's oil! The Hunnicuts are gonna be rich!"
[The boys cheer, and oil drips down as the scene transitions.]


[Hunnicut Farm has been turned into an oilfield with several pumps and wells. Liam stands sadly over the fence as Mimi has several bags packed beside him.]
Liam: "Boy, oh boy, I'm sure gonna miss this place."
Mimi: [walks up beside him] "Me too, sweet peach. But now that we got oil money, I bought us a big old house in a fancy-pants neighborhood. We won't have to be up at the crack of dawn, workin' our tails off till the sun goes down!" [She lifts her grandson and twirls him around.] "We'll be livin' the good life, ya hear?"
Liam: [chuckles] "Sounds mighty fine to me."
Mimi: "Oh, that's the spirit! Y'all packed?" [The screen pans to all the animals, who call out in confirmation.] "Well, then let's get to steppin'!"
[Cash falls as the scene transitions.]


[Huntington Oaks: The Hunnicuts are driving a tractor with the animals and all their bags. They approach a man dressed in a tennis uniform who walks by the gate to their new manor.]
Reginald: "Oh, my."
[The tractor stops by the man and splutters.]
Mimi: "Howdy, friend-o! What's your name?"
Reginald: "Reginald Robertson Riley III."
Mimi: [grabs Reginald's hand and shakes him vigorously] "Mimi Hunnicut." [Reginald is shaken up, and his hand is disfigured, to his horror.] "Call me Mee-Maw I." [She elbows Reginald in the stomach.]
Reginald: "Huh, can I help you? You seem, uh, lost."
Mimi: "Oh, we're not lost, Triple-R. We're your new neighbors!"
[Reginald shrieks in horror as the backdrop behind him turns red and cracks, and he runs away, leaving Liam and Mimi puzzled.]
Liam: "Huh, what a strange feller."
[They shrug and walk toward the gate. It has signs on the gates reading "Hunnicut Manor".]
Mimi: "There she is, Liam: Our new home! Hunnicut Manor!"
[The gates open to reveal the mansion, and it sparkles.]
Liam: "Oh-wee!"


[However, the Hunnicuts retain their previous farm behaviors on their new property, as Virginia lounges in the fountain--which has been filled with mud. Liam hoses her off while some of the other residents watch in horror.]
Liam: [notices them] "Y'all want next? I'd be happy to hose ya down when Virginia's done scrubbin' her behind."
[The posh family gasps in disgust.]
Posh Man: [covers the eyes of their dog] "Avert your eyes, Lady Wuffington!" [They walk away and shudder to Liam's confusion.]


[Next, Liam is skating the inside of the mansion with butter on his feet. He throws a churn of it toward the door, leaving a long trail that leads outside.]
Liam: "Mee-Maw, floor's all lathered with farm-fresh butter!"
[The scene pans to Mimi, who puts swimming goggles over her eyes. She dives onto the butter and belly slides down the stairs along the trail, then she is launched over to a swimming pool, and she lands inside it doing a cannonball.]
Mimi: "Wahoo! Now that's livin'!" [Two other residents are shown staring at her through the gate, stunned by the scene.] "Y'all wanna ride our butter slide?" [The scene pans out to show Ellie Mae is also in the pool. He huffs, which causes the two posh women to refuse and run off. Mimi climbs out of the pool as Liam brings her a towel.] "Y'know, sugar, I got me a hunch that folks 'round here don't like us much."
Liam: "Yeah, me too. We were thick as thieves with folks back in Royal Woods, but in these parts, we stick out like a turkey in a pigpen."
Mimi: "Well, that ain't no good. What's the point o' livin' somewhere if ya ain't friendly with yer neighbors?"
Liam: "Yeah."
Mimi: [pats his head] "Buck up, biscuit. It's like I always say: 'When the cows are dry, ya gotta hop on them goat udders.'"
Liam: "Not sure this is time fer milkshakes, but, uh, I'll get Carol Anne!" [He begins to walk off, but Mimi stops him.]
Mimi: "Hold on. I'm sayin' we gotta adapt: Learn how to act all fancy, then we'll fit right in around here!"
Liam: "Now that's a plan! Oh, and I think I know just the people to spit-shine us right up!"


[McBride house]
Harold: "We'd be happy to help! First lesson of the McBride Classy Class is, farm animals go outside!"
[The screen pans out to show the animals inside the house. Then the scene transitions to show the farm animals are now outside, looking through the window while the McBrides continue teaching the Hunnicuts.]
Howard: "Let's talk home decor." [grabs a gold chalice] "Antiques are a great way to show off how stylish you are."
Mimi: [grabs the chalice] "Ooh, I'm glad you fellers brought out a spit bucket! I've been holdin' in a doozy of a loogie for hours!" [She hawks and spits into the chalice.]
Howard: [gasps] "That's an eleventh century royal chalice!" [He faints as Clyde brings him a couch to land on.]
Harold: "Oh, thank goodness we have a fainting couch."
Liam: [runs over with a scarf] "Uh, here, Mr. McB. I'll just clean your chalice right quick with this hankie." [He spits on the scarf and begins to wipe the chalice.]
Harold: [gasps] "That's one of Queen Victoria's cashmere scarves!" [He faints as Clyde brings another couch to land on.]
Clyde: "This is why we have two of these."


[Later, Liam and Mimi are sitting with Howard.]
Howard: "The key to speaking properly is accentuating the right syllables." [holds up a piece of paper]
Mimi: [reads the paper] "The cut of the couture culottes is classy."
Liam: [reading] "The fromage finishes fabulously."


[Next, Liam and Mimi are dressed more formally with fancy music and are speaking more formally. They are at the dining table practicing table etiquette.]
Liam: [He pulls out a chair] "Grandmother."
Mimi: "Thank you, darling." [She sits in the chair, and Liam pushes it in. Then Liam moves beside the table.]
Liam: "May I interest you in some truffles?" [reveals a dish of truffles] "I'd be happy to shave them with this Renaissance-era mandolin."
Mimi: "Ooh, how splendid." [Liam shaves the truffles into the shape of Mimi, and she eats them using a fork, then dabs her face using a napkin.] "Divine."
[Howard and Harold walk over, applauding.]
Howard: "Good first day. Shall we get another set of lessons in tomorrow?"
Mimi: "Oh, tomorrow's no good. We invited the neighbors to our place tonight to show them how fancy we can be."
Howard and Harold: [horrified] "TONIGHT?!"
Liam: "Wait, what's wrong?"
Howard: "We still have a lot to cover."
Mimi: "Well, why don't y'all tag along? That way you can coach us from the sideline."
[Howard and Harold grin in agreement.]


[Hunnicut Manor: There are waiters and a violinist, but the farm animals are shown outside looking sadly through the window. The McBrides come over, then Howard uses a lint roller on the Hunnicuts while Harold closes the curtain.]
Harold: "It's showtime! Everyone ready?"
[Liam and Mimi open the front door, and there stands Reginald with all the guests.]
Mimi: "Welcome to Hunnicut Manor."
[The guests enter in awe at the mansion.]
Reginald: [He holds up a platter and reveals its contents.] "I brought pâté. It's imported from Provence." [Liam and Mimi are confused.]
Harold: [whispers] "It's fatty goose liver."
[Liam and Mimi are horrified, but they nervously smile.]
Mimi: "Oh, pâté."
[Liam runs off and brings back a hose.]
Liam: [whispers] "Don't worry, Mee-Maw. I'll just hit it real quick with our barbeque sauce hose."
[He is interrupted by the McBrides gasping, and they slip to the other side of the door, motioning for Liam not to use it. Liam tosses the hose away as Mimi takes the platter from Reginald. They each take a fork and some goose liver, then the McBrides point at their mouths for them to taste them. They reluctantly eat their samples.]
Mimi: [reluctantly] "Yum, right Liam?"
[Liam nods hesitantly. They swallow and glance at the McBrides, who give them a thumbs-up.]


[During the party, a guest taps on a teacup.]
Posh Woman: "Ooh, let's play a party game."
Mimi: "Oh, great idea!" [The screen pans to her holding a lasso.] "How 'bout 'Rope the Richies'?" [She lassos the woman and pulls her over, but Harold and Howard gasp and motion against it.]
Howard: "No, no, no, no, no, no."
Mimi: "Oh." [She sheepishly helps the woman stand up.]
Posh Woman: [abashed] "Good gracious, what are you doing?! I meant a game like Statues."
Mimi: [sheepishly] "Oh, I knew that. I just wanted you on my team."
Posh Man: [walks over] "Oh, Statues is great fun. We all stand completely still for an extended period of time like our favorite expensive statue."
[Mimi gets annoyed.]


[Mimi and Liam are shown to be struggling to stand still.]
Mimi: [through clenched teeth] "How much longer do we gotta stand like this? My leg's got the wobbles."
Howard: "Eh, I'd say about an hour or so." [He and Harold are squatting back to back, posing as Auguste Rodin's The Thinker. Mimi is annoyed.]


[Next, the guests are slow dancing to the violinist's music. Reginald and Mimi are standing together.]
Reginald: "Care to dance, madame?"
Mimi: "Oh, I sure do!" [She grabs his arm and runs over to the violinist.] "Pick the tempo up like you got on a new pair o' boots, and don't be afraid to take that E string for a ride!" [She hurries back.]
[The violinist puts on a cowboy hat and begins playing a fast country theme. Mimi dances the hoedown with Reginald to his dismay, then he is flung over to Liam, who is playing the spoons. He plays them on Reginald's head, then flings him back to Mimi. But Howard and Harold swipe him away and shake their heads in disapproval as the country music stops.]


[Meanwhile, there is a barn outside the mansion where all the animals are being kept. They look sad at being left out of the party.]
Liam: [walks up] "Aww, I'm sorry, gang. I wish y'all could be inside with us too, but we're tryin' to fit in and these folks ain't the farm animal type." [The horse blows him a raspberry.] "Yeah, I deserve that. Look, I know this won't make it up to y'all, but I brought somethin' for everyone." [He reveals a plate full of party foods. He opens the gate and places the platter inside the pen, and then he walks away. However, Liam forgets to close the gate, and the horse kicks its hoof to keep it open. The animals all hiss together.]


[Back at the party, Reginald is talking to the Hunnicuts.]
Reginald: "Well, it's not the fanciest party I've ever attended. Huh, a bit unorthodox, actually. But it's satisfactory." [extends his hand] "Maybe you're both Huntington Oaks material after all."
[Howard and Harold give Liam and Mimi a thumbs up, and Mimi shakes Reginald's hand. But then a party woman walks by, and Liam notices there's a chicken in her hair and yelps. Then he notices Virginia at the hors d'oeuvres table eating devilled eggs, and Carol Anne munching on a posh man's suit as he sips tea.]
Liam: [stammers] "Uh, M-Mee-Maw--eh, uh, I mean, Grandmother?"
Mimi: "Not now, darling."
[Just then, Clarence runs by with a chalice on his head.]
Reginald: "What in the name of Dow Jones?!" [A mooing sound is heard, and Reginald gasps as Bessie is eating from a platter. She glances at Reginald, then her eyes get red with fury and she snarls.] "What are you looking at, you boorish beast?"
Liam: "Oh, that's Bessie. She don't like the color red." [Bessie moos in anger.] "Quick, Mister Reginald! You have to take off your suit!"
[Liam tears off Reginald's trousers, revealing he is also wearing red undergarments. Bessie charges straight for him, knocking over statues and people in her way. Liam throws the trousers and runs off, which land on Reginald's head. He stands in fear as Mimi runs in front of him and lets out a Tarzan-style battle cry. Bessie stops, flips onto her back, and Mimi rubs her belly. Reginald notices the other animals within the mansion, then Mimi and Liam laugh as Reginald is unamused.]
Reginald: "Just what is so funny?! This is ghastly! Appalling! Unacceptable!"
Mimi: "Really? I'd say it was just about the most fun we've had all night!"
Liam: "Yeah, ha-ha, me too!" [chuckles] "Mee-Maw, I don't think all this stuffy stuff is for me."
Mimi: "You took the words right outta my mouth, buttercup. This ain't the good life. What we had before was the good life. The Hunnicuts are goin' back to their farm!"
[Howard and Harold are confused.]
Liam: "Uh, sorry for wastin' your time, Mr. McB. You too, Mr. McB."
Harold: "No, no. We get it. Being yourself is very important."
Howard: "Live your truth, Hunnicuts."
[Liam whistles, and all the animals come over.]
Mimi: "Alright, let's go!"
Liam: "Wait, Mee-Maw, what about all this fancy stuff we bought?"
Mimi: "Oh, leave it here. The riches can have at it."
[She leaves, followed by Liam, the McBrides, and the animals. As they leave, a golden vase is left behind. The party guests notice it, and they suddenly lunge for it in a fight cloud.]
Man 1: "Give me that!"
Man 2: "Gimme!"
Reginald: [He grabs the barbeque hose, and even he joins in on the fight.] "Get your hands off that priceless vase! I called dibs!" [He runs into the fight, yelling and shooting barbeque sauce.]
[The mansion shakes as the party guests brawl over the vase, and suddenly barbeque sauce floods out of the mansion.]
Liam: "Ooh-wee. [The scene cuts to the Hunnicuts and McBrides, packed and ready to go home on their tractor.] "Them folks ain't got no manners."
[Mimi starts the tractor as the McBrides laugh, then they drive away from the manor as the screen irises out on the tractor, ending the episode.]
