Paw gets a telegram: his distant cousin is coming to visit. A circus truck passes by on the highway, and Gorzo the Wild Man escapes. He works his way up to the Hillbilly Bears' house, and when Pa sticks out his arm to greet the "cousin," he almost gets it bitten off.

Production notes
The Hillbilly Bears were a clan who lived in the mountains and lazed around to the sound of the banjo. Paw Rugg, the muttering head of the family, spent most of his time asleep, awaking only to blast someone off his property with a shotgun. Maw Rugg smoked a pipe and ran the house, while daughter Floral and son Shagg were constantly wreaking havoc and avoiding responsibility.
