The people of Li'l Memphis are revolting and WC finds it disturbing. They accuse him of not being interested in the town any more, and everyone is suffering. In an effort to divert their attention from his secret mining activities, WC hires the world-renowned theatrical impresario, CamShaft, to stage a production of the 50's musical "Schmiko”. It's full of hot rod cars, rock n' roll and hair grease, and Li'l Elvis is a natural choice for the lead. Unfortunately, it means he will have to kiss Janet, who plays Schmiko's girl, Gloria, and who wants to kiss a drummer?
