THE STORY
|
While in Drucker's store, Oliver and Lisa meet Mrs. Mullen, a
new arrival in Hooterville. Almost immediately after meeting her
another new arrival is announced...the baby that Mrs. Mullen was
expecting. Lisa volunteers to watch after Mrs. Mullen's children
while Oliver rushes Mrs. Mullen to the hospital.
When Oliver gets back home, he finds they are now babysitting the
SIX Mullen children. Since kids need real food, and Lisa obviously
can't provide THAT...they bring in Ralph to help with the cooking.
After a week of Oliver getting shot with toy arrows, the kids breaking
dishes, Oliver being forced to sleep on the floor, and everyone
getting lost at the drive in, it's finally time for the kid's to
return home.
Lisa is sad, and Oliver admits he enjoyed having their little "instant
family" as well. As it turns out, the "family" gets to stick together
a little longer, as the children all caught the mumps from Ralph!
