 The western town of Dry Gulch is battling Jerry, the notorious cheese rustler. He brazenly saws off wedges of the cheese in the window of the general store (which changes the designation from cheddar to swiss as the cheese is shot full of holes). Sheriff Mutt Dillin calls for "the fastest trap in the west"; alas, he gets Tom, who despite his Paladin-like "Have trap, will travel" card, is even more inept than usual.
