Synopsis by Hal Erickson

Season Six of Petticoat Junction begins as Betty Jo (Linda Kaye Henning, now billed under her full given name) and her husband Steve (Mike Minor) eagerly await the birth of their first baby. Unfortunately, a pall is cast over the proceedings when Steve insists that the baby be born in a fancy Baltimore hospital, thus inadvertently insulting Hooterville's resident medico Doc Stuart (Regis Toomey). Byron Foulger makes the first of several recurring appearances as Wendell Gibbs, the new engineer of the Hooterville Cannonball; curiously, the original TV Guide listings billed somebody named "Jack Jamieson" as Gibbs.
