While all of Hooterville is excited about the upcoming big dance, Eb is obsessed with raising $20. He wants to buy his girlfriend a birthday present and take her to the "swanky" Pixley Diner (which has tablecloths). Oliver refuses to advance him the money, telling him to be ingenious. First, Eb begins leasing out the Douglas' wardrobe and telling folks that the couple's strapped for cash. After Oliver puts a stop to that foolishness, he babysits ten babies at once while their parents go to the dance.
