While the gents wait for their own tests to return on the spring water on grandpap’s property, Abner talks with Cedric. Cedric is eager to go to the dance, and expects a hot time. They recount the way they sent their tests with local boy, Emery, as he’s on his way to join the Navy.
The dance is to be a formal one, and flannel is required, due to the heat of Summer. Too bad Cedric already put all his winter flannels away. Um… I don’t think they meant long underwear Cedric. Attention turns to dancing, so Abner consults a book on the topic.
First up is a lesson on the Two Step, but maybe Cedric ought to stick to only one step at a time. Abner reads the instructions well enough, but somehow things get confusing for both of the guys. Time to practice the step, for an awkward moment once Lum arrives. Lum thinks the dance is silly, until he learns he has been asked to chaperone the affair.
