Out to make trouble.

You got two days, Emmerson.

You don't cough up

ten grand by then,

I got no problem taking

this farm off your hands.

All right, that's enough!

Get out of here.

And you, in there.

Cly...

I sincerely wish there

was something I could do.

Sheriff...

I know

you're just doing your job.

I'm the one taking the bath.

Believe me,

I'd be right there

in that bath with you

If I could.

Uh...

I'm... I'm sorry.

Eldridge sump and I have been

locking horns for years.

I run a respectable farm here,

Everything organic

and sustainable,

The way it should be.

Sump, on the other hand,

runs his farm like a sweatshop.

He pollutes the earth,

he poisons his livestock...

and he's crafty about it.

He covers his tracks

every step of the way.

I would shut him down

if I could,

And he knows it,

And he's out

to shut me down first.

I'm afraid this time,

He might actually have

the means to do it.

Well, maybe we can

talk to the bank,

You know,

refinance, or get you a loan...

yeah, the banks

aren't too fond of me

Ever since I spearheaded

The occupy turkey hollow

movement

Back in '09.

Man, I can't believe

That we could lose

the whole farm over turkeys.

Well, like the sheriff said,

Turkeys are big business

around here.

I know

this is a little off-Topic,

But does anyone else think

That the sheriff has the hots

for aunt Cly?

What?

He's too square for me.

Anyway...

what good's fooling around

with a lawman

If he can't even get you

out of trouble?

Aunt Cly?

I can't even tell you

how sorry I am.

I heard the noise,

And I just wanted to follow

on uncle Ned's footsteps.

Oh, well,

I think your uncle Ned

would be very proud of you.

Sneaking out after dark,

chasing after monsters...

you might as well be

Ned's reincarnation.

Thanks.

I'm so sorry.

Yeah, I'm not a hugger.

Yeah, kids,

Why don't you get back to bed?

It's late, okay?

We've had enough excitement.

Why don't you let the

grownups handle this?

Hoodoos!

My god...

hey!

Hey!

Not so fast, Dora the explorer!

Just let me go, Annie.

I have to find the hoodoo.

Again with the hoodoo!

Please explain to me

Why this idea

is any less stupid today

Than it was yesterday!

That's your big plan?

They're offering $10,000.

For one picture!

Okay, first of all,

This so-Called reward

Is from, like, 10 years ago...

yeah, that means it's

probably worth more by now.

Also, this isn't even

from a real magazine.

This is from

a supermarket tabloid.

Real news publications

Don't use so many

exclamation points.

And...

what's this thing?

Don't!

It's extremely important,

And it's the only one

of its kind.

It's a weapon uncle Ned invented
