Down in Pine Ridge, Lum has been struggling with a fire ordinance that threatens to put Squire Skimp out of business. Lum gets on the party line to make a few announcements about his Planetarium picture show. With Squire out of business, he promises to keep the movies fresh and lower the price of admission.
Lum still regrets having to close Squire down and is hesitant to face the case when it comes across his desk as Justice of the Peace tomorrow. He and Abner discuss how upset Squire is over the whole ordeal, though Abner quickly gets himself confused when trying to use a figure of speech.
Cedric pops in hoping to get his old job back, but his former role running the movie projector is already filled. He mentions how furious Squire remains over his embarrassing arrest.
Uh-oh. Look out—here comes Squire now. Just as Lum feared, Squire sees his arrest as an attempt to use the law as a tool for revenge and warns that he won’t take this lying down.
