THE STORY
|
It's "D-Day" on Green Acres. Six months are up, and today
is the day that Lisa decides if she will stay on the farm
or if she and Oliver will return to New York. Through a
series of flashbacks, Oliver and Lisa recall their time
together on the farm. Lisa is very sorry to disappoint Oliver,
but her answer is "no," she will not stay on the farm.
An angry/disappointed Oliver packs while the people of
Hooterville say their goodbyes.
Lisa changes her mind when she finds out that if they
leave, Eleanor (the cow) will become "potsroast" and
Alice (the chicken) will be fricaseed. Oliver is elated,
once again he and Lisa barter to decide how long Lisa will
stay on the farm. Once again, they decide on six months,
and once again Oliver shakes her hand in excitement.
The show ends with Lisa finally getting the kiss she deserves
for staying on the farm.

TRIVIA
|
In order to "determine" whether Lisa will say "yes" or "no,"
the people of Hooterville use many unorthadox
methods. Alf and Ralph take turns hammering in a nail
(she will [wham], she won't [wham], etc), Joe and Sam play
checkers, and Mr. Haney plucks a chicken.
In an effort to get Lisa to stay, Oliver buys her a shower
curtain (when they first moved into their house, they thought
the water closet was a shower, and he promised her he would
buy a curtain for it)
