The episode where Mamzelle Hepzibah was planning to marry Pogo, with or without his consent. Pogo comes around to visit while Hepzibah and Miz Beaver are fitting her for her wedding dress, which formerly belonged to Miz Boo. Miz Beaver tries to shoo Pogo away, bad luck to see the bride and all that. Pogo demures, saying he's seen that moth-eaten old dress before. Miz Beaver corrects him: "Those ain't moth holes, they's bullet holes! Miz Boo had a rousin' weddin'."
