Harvey Weskit returns from a visit to his in-laws with a large gift of money, which he hopes will buy him membership in an exclusive country club. Mr. Peepers knows the club president, and arranges a golf date between him and Wes. Meanwhile, Mr. Peepers takes a gardening job at the club in order to earn extra money, but this threatens Wes' chances of being admitted as a member.

Mr. Peepers and Wes hear that Elaine Stritch is playing at a nearby theater, so they attend, hoping to convince her to appear at their parent-teachers meeting.
