*A charred and sticky hat tumbles out of the sky. A peppermint candy and a piece of paper fall out of the hat when it hits the ground.*

*The Reverend Lovejello picks up the piece of paper and reads it.*
Ma'am, these men were down-right evil, but a man's final wishes are a man's final wishes, and we must deliver this document to his rightful heirs.
Do you know where this "RRR" Ranch is that the rag-tag posse was talking about?

Sherry à la Gelée - Schoolmarm Extraordinaire Posted Jun 11, 2002
Yes, sir, Ah think so. Ah remember passin' a ranch a little ways in that there direction when Ah came to Petah Gulch...

If I had realised that we would be hanging around out here, I could have got another brew on at the Store! 
Main Street
Rev. Elijah Lovejello Posted Jun 11, 2002
Well, I'll be going that way then. You have shown great strength for a woman, and while I would appreciate your company I would be happiest if you stay here were it is safe.
*Looks around.*
Um, you decide. First I have to get some tea from the general store, to bring with me as a peace offering. I think I heard a voice just know saying something like that.
*Shakes head*
Or it could just be a ringing in my ears from the explosion.
*Goes into the general store for a minute, then takes one of the dead webjello's horses and heads out.*

Amy the Ant - High Manzanilla of the Church of the Stuffed Olive Posted Jun 13, 2002
*parks the DFB on the stagecoach, then clambers down and heads across to the creek to talk to the horses* climbs up to Clyde's ear and whispers something*
*a look of concentration comes over Clyde's face* he and Bonnie walk across to the stagecoach and stand quietly ready to be hitched up when Titania gets there*
*Amy climbs back onto the stagecoach and waits*
Main Street
Titania (gone for lunch) Posted Jun 13, 2002
*comes riding into town*
Hi Amy! Oh - you've already prepared - good!
*slides off Gandalf onto a fence, climbs down*
*walks over to stagecoach, looks down*
Does this piece go here? And what about this one? Hmmmm...

Amy the Ant - High Manzanilla of the Church of the Stuffed Olive Posted Jun 13, 2002
*Bonnie looks round and twitches her tail*
Bonnie says that the long strap clips on up there. *points*
Main Street
Titania (gone for lunch) Posted Jun 13, 2002
Up there?
*looks around for something to step up on*
Main Street
Amy the Ant - High Manzanilla of the Church of the Stuffed Olive Posted Jun 13, 2002
No, a bit further down. You should be able to reach it. Bonnie says the humans call the straps 'traces'.
Main Street
Titania (gone for lunch) Posted Jun 13, 2002
Oooookay... *fiddles around with straps*
You're a great help, Amy - usually the horses understand what I say to them, but I'm not very good at understanding them - at least not that detailed...
Main Street
Titania (gone for lunch) Posted Jun 13, 2002
There! Could you with Bonnie and Clyde if it's right?
Main Street
Amy the Ant - High Manzanilla of the Church of the Stuffed Olive Posted Jun 13, 2002
*climbs into Bonnie's right ear*
They seem happy enough. Can you drive this thing, Titania?
Main Street
Titania (gone for lunch) Posted Jun 13, 2002
Me?
*thrilled*
I'll give it a try!
*ties Gandalf behind the coach, grabs reins and climbs up onto coach*
Gooooooo Bonnie - gooooooooo Clyde!
*starts chanting in rhythm with the horses' clip-clop*
Quadrupedante putrem sonitu quatit ungula campum...
[Then struck the hoofs of the steeds on the ground with a four-footed trampling]

Amy the Ant - High Manzanilla of the Church of the Stuffed Olive Posted Jun 13, 2002
*nearly falls out of Bonnie's ear in surprise*
Main Street
Titania (gone for lunch) Posted Jun 13, 2002
*spots ant hanging from horse's ear*
Sorry Amy - I didn't realize you were still in there! Hooooo... *pulls reins, slowing down horses*
Main Street
Amos the Ranchhand (and Driver) Posted Jun 13, 2002
*As the stagecoach passes out of town, a groan is heard from inside.*
Main Street
Amy the Ant - High Manzanilla of the Church of the Stuffed Olive Posted Jun 13, 2002
That's ok. No harm done.
*climbs onto Bonnie's head and then walks down the length of her back and sits on her rump facing Titania*
