Summary
  • Sappo: Mr. Krust tells John (Mr. Squits) he is going to marry Myrtle (Mrs. Sappo). He tells John to stay out of it or he will bust his nose. John thinks Mr. Kurst is a crook so he goes and gets a policeman and brings him into the living room. He shows the policeman Mr. Krust. Mr. Krust jumps out the window and runs away.
  • Thimble Theatre: Castor is laughing with Chief Thunder Lung. They both drank the laughing water from the spring. Ham knows when the chief gains control he will not be happy he is holding a white man. The chief is angry and ties a laughing Castor up to a stake and plans to set him on fire. He doesn't have any matches and asks Ham and Castor if they have any. Castor gladly hands him a match.
