to that Fella Mr Drysdale said he's a

queen's Minister I've never seen no

preacher dressed like him

fancy trappings like Episcopalian

well granny hey sheep and gasoline

of worrying about the queen

I mean man thank you Ibraham Mantra hey

Reverend Reverend well Mr Dragon said

you was a queen's Minister a minister of

finance

my identification and my authority to

act on the Queen's behalf

well uh come on into parlor and sit down

no I'm afraid I have the time but uh Mr

Drysdale tells me that you wish to

present the queen with the gift of some

sort well uh we heard that the queen but

unfortunately Her Majesty is not allowed

to accept gifts but on the Queen's

behalf I thank you for whatever it is

you had in mind for her good day well

what we had in mind was 80 million

dollars

[Music]

80 million dollars did Mr Drysdale tell

you it's sitting in his bank and Jed is

more than happy for the queen to have it

now Granny if the queen can't take it

there may be a way Excuse me while I

talk to my chief of protocols

well you may return to the studio you

chaps it looks as though the bitpuff I'm

playing is going to turn into a very

meaty role or what kind of a role is it

a bankroll

[Music]

I hope you don't mind doing your talking

in the kitchen not at all I ain't nosy I

just want to hear everything well anyway

as I was saying after the oral company

gave me all a million cousin Pearl

talked me into moving out of the little

old cabin and coming out here to Burley

Hill I see in here ever since for a

couple of weeks we spent in England in

our Castle your owner Castle in England

yes sir the folks of my deniers there

that's one reason we're so anxious to

help the queen we'll think of a way of

course it's got to be done so it

wouldn't seem like charity we wouldn't

want to hurt a pride now naturally but

the castle solves the problem

he did as a British landowner you are

qualified to purchase Royal real estate

well that's fine but uh how's that here

well as you know her majesty has vast

real estate holdings all over the world

but she's eating up with taxes or what

they call a land pool

I could make you a fabulous price on one

of the crown colonies

would you like to buy Hong Kong Hong

Kong that's that big eight that carried

off Bay Rays

Hong Kong is on the coast of China will

it tell the truth I ain't too keen on

buying a Chinese

let's get back to the real estate oh

fine would you be interested in

Australia or perhaps India

well if you like Islands I could make

you a very good price on Borneo

wish I knew more about these things uh

granny and me ain't had much schooling

again

oh good there's Jethro he's the educated

member of the family he is yeah I'm here

to get you boy on the second course I

better check those rights there may be a

second mortgage on Borneo

England yes sir put on one of them great

big cargo planes so it'll be waiting

when we get there how many times have I

told you I don't allow bunchers in here

way did you ever try hitchhiking from

the airport wearing a suit armor and

talking a buzzard brings her their mouth

I never know

some Royal real estate Royal real estate

it's a way of helping the queen and a

person here is giving me my choice of
