[Trinity]

Trinity returns to the ranch to find Slim on the floor with clotted blood on his scalp.  "Oh no!  Them derned injuns done scalped him.  Prolly wanted his bowie sheath!!"

Trinity carefully uncorks one jug and blows over the opening at Slims face.  Slim comes to in an instant and coughs.  "Careful Slim!  Ya kin git drunk off them vapors. "

It's not quite clear if it's actually the recipe vapors or Trinity's breath that brought Slim back, but he was lucky that his blood clotted and he was out of any real harm... except for that smell that he can't get out of his nose.

[Delmonico]

Delmonico looks at Slim, kicks aside some straw and looks at the empty ketchup bottle.  "Durn it Slim, that was our last bottle and ya wasted it ta get sympathy.  Since you can't go to Dunning after yer tarrin' and featherin, run down ta Anselmo and get some more."

[Sod Buster]

After a full day at the still working Sod Buster's corn into mash, Trinity shows up at the soddy's door with three jugs.  He shouts inside:  "This here's fresh from the still.  It'll peel yer skin off, but it'll work till the rest is finished.  Right now it's a-settin an' agin'"

After a while, Sod Buster opens the door and grabs the three jugs.  He uncorks one of them and nearly faints after taking a good long whiff.  DANG, this is strong stuff.  Maybe I can use some of it to strip some paint or as a cleanser.  He takes a swig and feels that comfortable burnin' feeling as it goes down.  Trinty is so good at makin' this stuff, I wonder what he can do with the winter wheat when it is ready in a few months......hmmmmmmm  <burp>

Sod Buster sits down at the door and pulls out his jaw harp to enjoy the rest of the day.

[Delmonico]

However it is not to pass, on the second twang the corn likker on his breath melts the twanger.

[Delmonico]

Back in the kitchen Delmonico notices his sink drain is backed up, he slips out to the barn where Trinity is passed out and steals his jug.   He pours two glugs into the drain and the pipes open up so fast that Delmonico is almost caught in the whirlpool.

[Lucky Irish Tom]

Irish is walking by and sees Del pour some of the contents of the jug into the plugged up sink.  He grabs Del's arm just before the maelstrom pulls him in.  Del I don't know what you used to clean that clog but ya durn near pulled the house inside out! 

[Silver Creek Slim]

Delmonico looks at Slim, kicks aside some straw and looks at the empty ketchup bottle.  "Durn it Slim, that was our last bottle and ya wasted it ta get sympathy.  Since you can't go to Dunning after yer tarrin' and featherin, run down ta Anselmo and get some more."

"A guy can't be blamed fer tryin'. Now, I have to wash out my nose ta get this horrble stink outta it." Slim goes to the Wedgewood room to wash out his nose and ketchup offa his head.

[Trinity]

Having been sharply pulled back by litl rooster, Trinity looks up and says "What?"

[Delmonico]

Delmonico heads to Dunning to the plumbin' shop, Trinity's corn likker ruined the drain pipes.

"Oh, whew!  Thankee pard.  That wouldn't be a good thang.  Whars mah jug?"  Trinity gets up and walks over to the sink and finds a huge hole where the drain used to be.  "What in tarnation happened here?   An whars mah jug?"

[Lucky Irish Tom]

A few hours later the hole is much larger, the sink has disappeared and a large crater is beginning to form under the house! 

[Trinity]

Trinity stares down into the abyss and scratches his head.

[Silver Creek Slim]

Slim goes into the kitchen after he is finished washin' up. "What did y'all do to the sink?" He walk over for a closer look and sees the abyss.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!
Slim runs from the house.

[litl rooster]

litl' rooster see's the others running from the house and goes and investigates....Slim, we might want to fire up the the steam shovel and git it ready. Delmonico is goin to want to back fill that hole.

[Delmonico]

Delmonico comes home with the drain pipe, "Slim, why did you tell me Trinity's likker made good drain cleaner?  Look at the trouble you caused again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

[Lucky Irish Tom]

Tom reaches into the hole and pulls something out.  Trinity's likker has eaten away everything but this clump.  Tom examines it then drops it into Del's hands, "Dunno Del, looks like a clump a beard hair, n from the color I'd say it's Slim's."

"I did no such thing!"
