Summary
  • Thimble Theatre: Castor and Ham trade their mean horse with an Indian for an Indian pony. The Indian tells them the horse doesn't understand English, only Indian language. He tells them the words for "Gid-dap" and "woah." They go off running on the horse but forget the word for woah. They approach a cliff pretty fast and go over the cliff. At the bottom of the cliff Castor remembers the Indian word for woah.
  • Sappo: John is sitting on his suitcase worried that Myrtle is done with him for good. He sees her coming home from the grocery store. He yells at her and she ignores him. He does something that bothers her. She turns around and throws eggs at him.
