Ride the High Country - The Value of Eggs and Youthful Humor
Steve Judd:
If you could spare us a few eggs, we'd be glad to pay for em.
Joshua Knudsen:
Well, one you can have; because the Lord's bounty is not for sale. The rest are a dollar each.
Heck Longtree:
A dollar each?!! Now how in the world do those short-legged chickens lay eggs so high?
Joshua Knudsen:

You calling me a cheat?
Hank: [Fight ensues.]
