Dee Dickens pans for gold while trading sharp-tongued jabs with Huck, who runs the general store and restaurant in town—a back-and-forth battle of wits that swings from prospecting to antiques to questionable chocolate bars. As Dee lounges around looking for a free rest, Huck's patience wears thin, leading to a breezy showdown over who's really wasting whose time.

Buffalo Bull returns to his small town after a supposed stint in Hollywood, regaling anyone who'll listen with tales of his movie career—though his stories keep falling apart under the slightest scrutiny.
