Thomson, Illinois - ( The Home of Kettles of Thomson, Illinois - Ma and Pa and the twenty four kids. Planned Parenthood wanted to do a study. Pa said "Naw." Ma is taking Pa's Union Suit out of the wash boiler*.)
*Wash Boiler - A vessel of sheet-metal in which clothes to be washed are boiled.
Ma Kettle: [about Pa's underwear] It's the latest thing, Billy Reed said they'd fit perfectly.
Pa Kettle: They probably would if he were in them with me!
Ma Kettle: [laughs] Well, we'll just pin them up for right now, they'll shrink once I wash them. Pa, I always seem to be scoldin' you.
Pa Kettle: I know, Ma. You do all the barkin', but it's me that's always in the doghouse
Ma Kettle: Pa, you're lazier than that old hound dog we used to have.
Pa Kettle: Which one?
Ma Kettle: The one that used to lean against the wall when she barked.
(Shotgun Smith stops by) Mornin' Ma! Mornin' Pa tell you 'bout the news I saw?
Ma & Pa - Naw!
Shotgun- Terrorists a Comin'!
Pa Kettle: I thought they might be a traveling salesmen. A lot of them visit farms, you know.
Shotgun: Yeah, I've heard stories about them.
Ma Kettle: Thomas Edison's first name was Thomas!
Pa and Shotgun - Don't say.
