In this episode of The Beverly Hillbillies season 2, titled "Jed Gets the Misery," we see the Clampett family continue to adjust to their new life in Beverly Hills. The episode opens with Jed experiencing some unexplained discomfort, leading him to believe that he has caught the "Misery," a mountain sickness that affects those who have lived in higher elevations for too long.
Jed's concern for his health leads Granny to search for a cure in her trusty old book of mountain remedies, while Jethro and Elly May try to find a doctor who can diagnose Jed's symptoms. Meanwhile, Jed's banker, Mr. Drysdale, is worried that Jed's potential illness could cause him to withdraw his millions from the bank and leave Beverly Hills.
As the search for a cure continues, Jed becomes increasingly anxious about the possibility of leaving his new home and returning to the mountains. This leads to a heartwarming scene where the Clampett family gather around Jed and express their love and appreciation for him, reassuring him that they will stand by him no matter what.
Ultimately, Jed's "Misery" turns out to be nothing more than a minor cold, much to the relief of everyone involved. The episode ends with the Clampetts once again embracing their new life in Beverly Hills, grateful for each other and the opportunities that their newfound wealth has provided.
Overall, "Jed Gets the Misery" is a lighthearted episode that showcases the strong family bond of the Clampetts and their ability to overcome any challenge that comes their way. Fans of The Beverly Hillbillies will not want to miss this fun and heartwarming episode.
