Doc Gamble has arrived to join the rest of the men who have visited earlier. The insults won’t keep Doc away, and he waits with the rest. Even Wallace Wimple has been invited over, and adds his own cooking tis. He also talks about his bird watching, camping, and his wife, Sweetie Face. It seems that the devious Wimple has put Sweetie Face off of camping.

The aroma from the kitchen has everybody’s mouth watering, but there’s just a litle snag. Not enough food to go around. How will Fibber be able to bow out gracefully? Wat will his roomful of hungry men feel about going hungry? Don’t worry, he manages it.
