In the Jot Em Down store today, Grandpap is upset. After he and Squires Skimp raced out to stop the dual what do they find? Lum and Abner had already made up and were sitting together on Cedrick’s running board. Grandpap is upset that they couldn’t conduct a proper dual. But Abner lets him know that they discussed the matter, and found out how the misunderstandings got them into trouble.
Abner now confronts Grandpap, that he has been at the center of the misunderstandings, and accidents. He threatens to run Grandpap out of town so far that radar won’t help him find his way back. Grandpap doubts that Abner knows a thing about radar, but he says little pearl is dating a Navy man who knows another Navy man who knows plenty about it.
Lum enters and manages to calm the gents down. Grandpap can take a hint! He can fall into a house! Lum thinks it’s silly that the two for arguing about a topic neither of them knows anything about. The bickering is ended when a stranger enters asking about a notary public. The dignified man needs to mail a letter. While Abner finds the seal, Lum shows off the lodge picture that has the whole gang in it.
Not impressed with Abners over-eagerness, and not even having signed the document yet, the man notices his seal is out of date. When Lum tries to impress him by claiming he knows the governor, the man reveals his identity. He is the governor.
