[rustling]

Skout, what is it you're doing back there?

Just taking inventory, Toth.

Got everything we need to catch a bounty.

Knife, jerky, bow, arrows, quiver,

knife, Don Paragon's special agua elegante, more knives.

Uh, Toth, why do we need so many knives again?

Stabbing.

Even this one?

Especially that one.

Oh, right, how silly of me.

Why do we need so many books?

Uh, so that we'll know everything

we need to know about the wilderness.

I already know everything I need

to know about the wilderness.

Oh, of course, I'm such a dunder-head.

Such a dunder-head.

[snarls]

You are here because you are the finest soldiers

in any of the four corners.

You are ruthless, cunning, and your name

strikes fear into the hearts of all who would oppose us.

You are Don Paragon's dandelions!

The Don chose each and every one of you

for this important mission, to find the dreaded Nomad.

Some of you may die, but so many more will return

back to the Oasis as heroes!

JETHRO: You said all this last time.

And the time before that, at the cave.

You were so sure he was in that cave.

But he weren't.

And I'll say it as many more times

as I have to until we find him!

The Nomad isn't just another bounty.

He's the most wanted man in the world

and has been for the last 100 years.

Because he's magic, he's a menace-

A menace that must be stopped.

We know.

You done told us.

It's like she don't even listen to us, Jethro.

Well, I, for one-

Ah!

Does anyone else have something to say?

Well, since you invited.

It's clear you're leading us in another wild goose chase.

And when you return to Don Paragon empty-handed,

again, Red Manuel will be the one

to take your place at his side.

Well, looks as though Red wants to start this old song

and dance at the top of the mission today.

Skout, get me my stabbing knife.

Now, hold on, you two.

We're supposed to be on the same side.

And we're supposed to recognize rank.

Toth's in charge because she's the best and everyone knows it.

How adorable that your spittoon girl

thinks so highly of you, Toth.

Hey, now, in addition to carrying the spittoon,

I'll have you know I also carry a great deal of other things.

And how's that working out for you?

[laughter, chatter]

It seems she can handle it better than you.

Now, form up and move out.

[moans]

Huh!

Well, I have never seen flower like this in person.

Some of these plants shouldn't even exist anymore.

You think a book is going to protect you here?

Ah!

That book could have told you that was

a poisonous pinchbutler.

You think being clever means you belong here?

But we all know when the time comes to take action,

you'll just coward behind Toth like you always do.

Hmmm!

I'll show that Red what's what.

I am cut out for adventure.

I am brave!

Ah!

[grunting]

Great job, Skout.

You've gone and difficultied this whole thing up.

Mm?

[gasp]

Oh, now I'm just scaring myself.

To think that a rock would-

ahhh!

Ahhh!

Don't move!

Do me a favor, try to look a smidge

more intimidating for a second.

Guess that answers that.

My name's Skout.

Reckon you live out here in these brambles?

[rattle]

Great.

Maybe you can help me out.

Got a name, stranger?

You can talk, can't you?

A mute, huh?

Well, that's a conundrum.

I don't even know what to call you.

You want me to call you friend?

[rattle]

Well, that's good enough for me.

Say there, friend, these critters are amazing.

Are they just part of the local wildlife here or- hey!

[claps]

Well, dag-nabbet.

Huh?

What in the- there's nothing quite

like this in my field guide.

I wonder if maybe the Nomad is here

and this is all the result of his magic.

I have to go, friend.

I've got to find Toth.

Wait.

You know the Nomad?

You know where he lives? [gasp]

Can you show me?

[rattle]

Oh, thank you!

This will show every single one of those dandies,

even Toth will have to notice.

Let's go.

[pounding steps]

[snarls]

What is this place?

Huh.

Looks like nobody's home.

Hey!

This feels an awful lot like trespassing.

You coming inside?

He must have been cooped up in here for ages.

They say nobody's seen him for 100 years.

Does he ever leave the briar patch?

Seems like it'd be awful lonesome.

He must be dying for someone to talk to.

No wonder why he's so evil.

Well, the Nomad clearly lives here,

so I think it's best we set up an ambush and wait for him

to come back.

I'll go get Toth and the others.

Oh, you're going to love her.

Once she finds that evil Nomad, she'll really let him have it.

Is something wrong?

What are you doing with that old sheet?

I found you, Nomad.

Such a dunder-head.

You're coming with us.

And no amount of trickery and magic can save you.

Ah!

Trickery and magic!

You fools.

Red Manuel will show you how this is done.

Get back here!

You're ruining Red Manuel's moment!

Aw, sheet!

No more games.

Toth, wait, he's not what you think.

[grunting]

RED MANUEL: I can't see!

Quick!

Help Red Manuel!

He's claustrophobic!

Though much too proud to admit it.

RED MANUEL: Get your hands off me!

Uh!

[screaming]

Oops.

Oops.

[grunts]

[gasp]

[screaming]

No!

He's getting away!

Someone do something!

Um, sorry.

[grunts]

You let him get away!

Ah!

He's not out of the woods yet.

So let's burn the woods down.

Wait, Toth, don't you think that's going too far?

Eh, these moral quandaries are beyond our pay grade.

I concur.

Ooh.

Oh, dear.

Wait!

Toth, you have to stop.

This whole place is going to burn down.

That's the idea.

[gasp]

Whoa!

[grunting]

We have to go back and help the others.

They're going to be stuck in that clearing.

We can't stop now.

We won't!

[coughing]

SKOUT: Help!

Please, somebody!

[coughing]

Hey, fella, need a snack?

[groaning]

You- you saved us.

Thanks, friend.

[laugh]

You've got no place to hide, Nomad.

Don Paragon will hear of what happened.

He will not rest until you are captured!

So what are you going to do now?

[grunting]

[theme music]

So maybe the Nomad got away, but at least we know he's-

Not now.

[horse neighs]

They're lined up early today.

Hey, you've got to pay for that!

[grunting]

Rules are rules.

Captain Toth, Don Paragon awaits your report.

Toth, you're back.

I've got a leg half liking to vamanos too, so let's

just jump to the part where you didn't find the Nomad

and you vow to continue your never-ending quest

to yada, yada, yada.

We found him.

What?

We found the Nomad.

You found the Nomad?

Oh, Toth, I could just devour you,

you beautiful bronze statue!

So where is he?

I got to see my magical little meal ticket.

Well-

[grunts]

You lost the Nomad?

He escaped, yes.

His magic was as crafty as the legend said.

He might have gotten away, but I'd like to think we

learned the value of teamwork.

Well, except in the part where Toth stomped off on her

own there at the end and kind of left everybody back-

What Skout means to say is now that we've seen what he can do,

we'll be better prepared for the next time.

Dramatic! Harrowing!

Tragic!

A fiery escape!

Dreams up in smoke!

I love it!

I hate it.

But progress is still progress, and this was definitely

progress, despite your defeat.

Every noble venture is bound to endure setbacks.

It's like that thing I always say about myself,

back in the early days of the Oasis,

when I bravely endeavor to stumble upon the only water

source for miles to establish my very own highfalutin

utopia, what was my most important quality?

Yes, you, in the front.

Uh, persistence?

Looking sharp?

A modest loan with a reasonable interest rate?

Being first, which is exactly what we're going to do now.

We're going to nab that magical monster

before anyone else can get their grubby little hands on him.

I suggest regrouping immediately and-

Might Red Manuel offer a different suggestion?

Oh, you're Red Manuel.

You've got a shtick for that person.

I love it. Continue.

Why worry about being first when you can pay someone

else to be first for you?

I'm not following here, Rojo.

With your many resources and vast influence,

you could offer a reward for the Nomad's capture.

The southwest has many bounty hunters.

We could cover much more ground in the search for the Nomad

rather than putting all our huevos in one basket.

A very unworthy basket.

I can find him.

You need to-

What I need is to be certain you can do your job, Toth,

because right now I've got more doubts

than I have fancy outfits, and I have a lot of fancy outfits.

There's something that needs attending on the outskirts,

just the sort of rough and tumble mission

to get you back on track, chica.

And don't go looking for the Nomad

until you prove you can be useful.

Understood?

May the best man win.

First things first, I want new wanted posters in every town

from here to the Iron Border featuring my reward.

And let's make sure it's got that Don Paragon pizzazz.

Mr. Paragon, not to be too prickly about it,

but the Nomad saved us all.

He came back for us.

I think he didn't want us to die.

A moral compass.

That's just splendid, Skout.

That means he's got a weakness.

Good thinking.

What?

No, that's not what I meant.

I just- why we got to catch him so bad?

Because el rey wants him, little wildflower.

That's the thing about being the king.

You get whatever you want.

Besides, who are we to second guess?

Do you think you know more about the dangers of magic

than el rey?

Me neither.

[grunts]

Now, now, cheer up, Captain Toth.

The wasteland is a treacherous place that fairer folk

can't brave on their own.

With any luck, he won't have gotten far.

The elements will have undoubtedly

slowed him to a pathetic crawl.

[rumbling]

Hi, you're new round here.

Name's Barty.

Want to join an exciting project to help Bliss Hill?

Great, but first you have to answer

my exhaustive questionnaire.

Ready?

Ever killed a man?

Know your basic arithmetics?

Do you believe in ghosts?

Can you do a cartwheel?

Hmm.

Form could have been better.

Hey, I just know something.

Can't you talk?

[rattle]

A mute.

That's good for diversity.

OK.

Last question and the most important,

got any food or water?

Guess I was hoping for too much.

So no food, no water, ain't never killed a man.

What can you do?

[clap]

Wow!

You can do bona fide magic!

What other tricks you got?

Just the one, huh?

Well, I ain't one to complain, especially since we

got this dancing fruit.

[bird caw]

Well, if that ain't this town in a nutshell,

I don't know what it is.

But you know what?

I think you pass the test, stranger.

Come on!

Magic, huh?

Hmm.

They're either here or at Mary Caverns.

Hold up a second.

[whistle]

Barty, why'd you bring a stranger here?

Are you under duress?

He's using the secret code.

What's he saying?

Either he has to go to the bathroom or-

[gasp]

Operation Bandit!

Consult the protocols!

All right, section 14, article C, Bandits.

There are three types of bandits.

The etymology of the word bandit comes from the vaqueran word

bandito, which-

Come on, Eugene!

My shootin' arm's getting tired!

There's no protocol for that!

Ow!

Another victim of bureaucracy!

Curse all this red tape!

Oh, stop it, Eugene.

Why did you bring him here anyway, Barty?

Just show them what you can do.

[clap]

He makes baby rocks?

My pappy's birds and bees talk didn't cover this at all?

No, you dolts.

He brings things to life with magic.

You know what that means?

Stranger, it's time I told you the purpose of this outfit.

We're the Meal Preservation Society!

All them long-legged grownups forgot about the mill

when the water stopped flowing.

But we are the future of this here town,

and we're going to do whatever we can

to get that mill turning again.

To heck with the grown-up establishment.

Our livelihoods depend on it.

We ain't hooligans.

We're hoolicans!

And we's going to fix Bliss Hill!

Does that mean you're with us?

Here they are, sheriff.

Hold it right there, long legs!

Barty, somehow I knew I'd find out

you were the reason for these dunder-heads complaining.

Looks like my fool boy led you lot on a goose chase.

Ain't no magic here.

That's only going to bring us more problems.

But pa, he is doing magic, and it ain't bad.

Stranger, I'm only going to say this once.

Take your dark magic and get out of here.

He ain't a stranger.

He's my friend.

His magic can help the whole town.

In fact, he's going to bring back the old mill.

Why not?

You brought the rocks to life.

I know you can do it.

Bliss Hill needs you.

Barty, get away from him!

Just let him try.

It could change everything.

I don't care what anybody says about magic.

[clap]

All right, Barty, time to run along.

[creaking]

See, pa?

It's working.

I knew he could do it!

I knew you had a few screws loose, Barty,

but this is bad medicine.

We can't have the mill acting on its own like this.

It'll bring the wrong sorts to Bliss Hill.

[creaking]

You broke it!

You're lucky I don't string you up right where you stand.

Get out of here!

Don't never come back!

[rumbling]

Huh.

Don't see that every day.
