Butternut Hollow
Middletown, Connecticut
Dead Cow: *lying by the pond*
Irene: Jeez! I wonder how she died?
Seth: No clue.
Arthur: Is there a farm nearby?
Irene: No.
Arthur: Then, how did a cow wind up here and die?
Irene: I don't have the answer to that, Arthur.
Old Man: The world may never know.
Arthur: Gah! You startled me!
Old Man: *chuckles* Sorry, sonny! I'm just gonna feed these geese!
Seth: I don't think that's allowed, sir.
Old Man: Dag nabbit! I'm going back to Montana way! *gets in his orange 1977 Lincoln Continental coupe with a Montana license plate on it, and drives right onto Butternut St*
Arthur: That old dude has a long way to travel.
