Synopsis
Betty Boop's automobile runs out of gasoline while driving through hillbilly country. When she goes up to a nearby shack to ask for help, landowner Zonk Peters and his family are suspicious of the stranger, mistaking her for an attacking Hatfield, but Betty wins them with her dancing. Soon, the entire Peters clan are making music and dancing. Betty's new friends help her on her way by filling her gas tank with a jug of "corn dripp'ns".
