Abner learns Lum’s intention to hire grandpap to act as his personal secretary to handle the flood of telegrams from top notch chefs who want the recipe for Lumburgers. For the kind of wages grandpap is getting, Abner is more than willing to take the job, should Lum change his mind.

Lum has about had enough of grandpap’s pushiness, until he realizes that the world is now calling him a genius. Doc Ben Withers enters, hinting grandpap is shirking his duties as Pine Ridge’s sole telegraph boy. Never fear, Abner to the rescue.
