So far as I can see, the game handed the bacon wallpaper at specifically this time so Sam could perform this task.

It's not the same, and that's why I like it. Never mind the dietary restrictions keeping me from eating pork bacon, I've had the stuff and it's disgusting. Meat should not crack. Or taste of grease.

I agree with that. Bacon doesn't taste particularly good. I don't hate it but I'd much rather eat something else.

But that's no reason why we shouldn't paint bacon everywhere on the island.

Ep. 21: Varmint Bacon



Right. We're done here. Let's get--

...



BACON



RAW BACON IN THE NIIIIIGHT



BACON IS FOR AND/OR OF PIGS



MMM BACON



... no, Sam



BACON FOR KITTIES oh crap the sun is coming up and Sam is almost out of Mana



BACK TO THE BOAT BEFORE RENEE WAKES UP



--as I was saying (before I was so rudely interrupted by BACON) let's get the heck out of Dodge!



sailing, sailing~



Whoops, we were sailing the wrong way! Silly me.

(The boat can be freely rotated during loading screens.)

: Wow, for real?

Pause.

: That was sarcasm, Buddy. There's probably *cowboys* in Cowboy Junction.

: Ohhhhh...

Buddy thinks for a minute.

: Hey Lyndsay, know what? I'm a Fish Man!

: Is that right?



: ...

Sam silently proclaims that he does not know either of them, and with that, we arrive at Cowboy Junction!



Turns out Lyndsay was wrong: Cowboy Junction is populated by pizza chefs.



And grizzled old prospector/blacksmiths with wonky eyes.



And anxious bee-girls with cows.



And Sams and Co.



: Neat! I want to meet a cow!

Lyndsay turns to Sam.

: Where should we go first, Sam?

Sam, however, does not answer, because we all suddenly become aware of a constant YIP YIP YAHOO! commotion approaching from behind.



A cowgirl with long red braids rides her hobbyhorse up to us, pulling up sharply in a cloud of dust.



She then PULLS HER FINGERGUNS ON US oh crap. (... inasmuch as she... has fingers.)



Pause.





Man! How are we going to get out of this one?

Ep. 22: Who Was That Masked Man?





Sam winces and waves his hands, all 'nuh-uh not us no way'.





... you are the worst sheriff. :allears:

: I'm Sheriff Ginny! Welcome ta Cowboy Junction, folks. Y'all caught me on patrol!



Rope tricks!



Sheriff Ginny slumps and sighs heavily.

: *sigh* I sure wish somethin' excitin' would happen. The only thing ta do 'round here is take Gino's pizza tour.

Buddy jumps for joy and turns to Sam, hands flailing.

: Ooh, Sam! We have GOT to do the pizza tour! Maybe there's free samples!

: You know how Buddy feels about free samples, Sam. And Gino's pizza IS world-famous...

Sam nods. Pizza tour for us!

: Hooray! Let's look for Chef Gino!

: Have fun, y'all! Ah gotta get back on patrol.





And thus Sheriff Ginny mounts her trusty steed and gallops away. Fun fact: in the original MySims Ginny was not a cowboy sheriff. She was a pirate! I guess she's repented of her evil pirate-y ways or something.



oh hey we were just about to go looking for you



Meanwhile: hm.



Hmmmmm.



Ginny just cannot figure Buddy out. But we are here for PIZZA.



: You must be here for the tour! Please follow me to my farm and I'll show you how real pizza is made!

Woo hoo, says Sam. Pizza!



Chef Gino heads out, up these steps, and we follow him.



We pass this guy heading out as we head in. A real live cowboy! Yay!





Pause.





While Gino frowns and dithers over his mill, a grizzled old prospector wanders in, intent on mining one of them there nearby rocks.





Hm, says Gabby.



He goes to take a closer look at the mill.



A very close look. Finally, he comes to a conclusion.



Oh no!



Dun dun dunnnnn!

Why would you even put your gourmet flour mill outside in the grass? That's just unsanitary. Doesn't the flour mill usually go inside the windmill building?

Sometimes it's not the bomb that's retarded.

It mostly goes inside the building because outside the flour is hard to collect when the winds blows it all over the countryside.

Ep. 23: It Is A Beverly Hills Cop Joke











Gabby turns to Sam.

: Nope. You'll need more than gears to fix this here mess.

Gino promptly bursts into tears.

: No! I am ruined!! Is this the end of Gino's pizza?!

: Easy, Chef, ain't no call fer all that caterwaulin'.

Gabby turns back to Sam.

: Listen, Sam was it? I got a Scroll here that'll teach ya how to make the parts ya need.

Of course you do.

: Y'all just scamper off and gather what you need fer this Scroll. Gabby's got some rocks to hit wih this here pickaxe.

: A new Scroll! C'mon, Sam, let's see what powers we can unlock...



The powers of Metal and Amber, I guess!



And Sam should do some of that.



The mining wall by Gino's outdoor pizzeria has nothing really new in it: Metal, Bronze, Silver, and Mana. Still, it's Metal we need, so this is plenty.



The treasure finder also pulls up the usual Amber, Stone, and the occasional Onyx. And with that, we have everything we need.



Sam pauses to shake a tree. It drops... Musical Note Essences. We do not question this. Instead, we go to speak to Lyndsay.

: Hey, Sam! Did you finish a Scroll?



... welp. (doo, doo, doo de doo doo doo)

: Great! Let's complete this Scroll and then go tell Gino!



Sam is granted something called a Set of Axles, which are basically metal sticks of varying lengths. Let's take them to Gino.

: Oh, you finished! Excellent! Gabby, if you would be so kind as to explain how to use these wonderful new blocks that Sam here unlocked...



oh hey a tutorial I didn't miss these



The camera scrolls over to an empty rack that used to have gears on it.

: Then just connect up these parts here usin' gears, just like yer used to doin'.



At least Gabby is succinct about it.



So, yes, to connect gears end-on, we need metal sticks. Whoopee.



stick stick stick gear gear done!



And now the mill works!

: It's spinning again! The tour can continue! Watch as I demonstrate my magnificent flour milling skills. Then on to the tomato patch!



Gino tosses in a little hank of wheat.



Then waits approximately forever while the mill grinds around and white dust billows out.



And eventually he reaches in and pulls out a bag of flour! That is a heck of a mill. (It also spits out a couple of Organic Essences for Sam's magic pockets, because of course it does.) Now that we have flour, it's time to check out some tomatoes!



Sam follows Gino over to the tomato patch--



--oh, that can't be good.

Ep. 24: Yes, We Have No Tomatoes



: My precious tomatoes have dried in the sun! How revolting! Please, Sam, go ask Gabby if he can help us with this new problem as well.

Okay, but only because you said 'please'!



: OK, Sam, I got a Scroll that'll teach ya how to build all those stolen parts.

Of course you do!



Well, of course. What better to build water pipes out of than fish.



So, yeah, there's a fishing spot right here.



Where we can catch crabs!



And grumpy bass again!



And piranha! Oh, good, Sam will just stuff those in his magic pants, no problem. To Lyndsay!

: Hey, Sam! Did you finish a Scroll?



Sure did.

: Great! Sprinklers, here we come!



sparkle sparkle

And, lo, Sam gets a Water Pump, Sprinklers, T Pipes, Elbow Pipes, and Long and Short Pipes. We are gonna move some water around, by golly.



: I'll let Gabby cover the details, of course...





: But to power the pump, ya gotta attach it to somethin' spinnin'!



... other people can see those? :eek:





:allears:



Putting down a water pump and hooking it to the windmill means that water starts to pour out of the pipe. All we have to do now is to get that water to touch all these plants.



Sam has directed the water close enough to a tomato plant, so it is now handsome and full of tomatoes. We don't absolutely have to use the sprinkler heads, but they do make the water spray further and hit a larger area.



Like so.



Sam builds a perfectly ridiculous self-supporting pipe dream that sprays immense amounts of water out in all directions with great force!



And eventually all the tomato plants are drowning in water.



Hoorah!





But first, Sam will pick a nice tomato for himself. It magically turns into Organic Essence. Now then!



We follow Gino up along this path until he comes into sight of a little yellow house.







We arrive, interrupting Roxie's anti-dust diatribe.

: Hi Roxie! Got any fresh bottles of milk today? These delightful visitors are on my World-Famous PIzza Tour!

Roxie puts her broom away and waves a cheery hello in Sam's direction.

: Oh, Gino! If only I did.

The camera zooms dramatically away.

It's like the game is teaching apathy. A swineherd assistant can't even grab a pizza. For some reason I have this strange notion that the pizza oven won't work either. Or all the cutlery is missing. Or the whole restaurant got burned down.

I bet that drat that wizard is behind every problem! It's likely he's trying to show off how awesome a wangdolier or whatever it was called is to everyone, but messing with pizza is going too far. Likely paid the bandit to sabotage the place. :argh:
