In Pine Ridge, Abner is finding out the troubles of swapping all his merchandise for animals. He tries to get a parrot to talk to him. The circus manager phones in for more animal feed. Besides Abner being short on supplies, the circus can’t come up with funds, so Abner is forced to foreclose on the mortgage he holds on the circus.

He has word that the circus is trying to sneak out of town, so Abner needs to get on the ball if he hopes to collect on his mortgage.
