The Lone Ranger and Tonto are riding through a canyon. Suddenly The Loan Ranger sees indians lined along the top of the canyon to his left staring down at them. He says out the corner of his mouth, "Tonto, check out those indians up there!. What should we do?" Tonto replies "Kimo sabe, that is an Apache war party. We must not run or they will attack. Keep going, do not look up there."
They proceed along the canyon and The Lone Ranger realises that there is now a line of indians along the right of the canyon ridge. He points this out to Tonto also. Tonto says "That, Kimo Sabe, is a Comanche war party, this not look good, they ready to fight, we must not run but should get out of this canyon, it ends round the next bend."
As they approach the end of the canyon more indians appear and block the exit. Tonto says, "these are Cherokee, they are not a people we should attempt to reason with, Kimo Sabe, we have no choice but to return through the canyon."
They turn around and head back into the canyon, still at a walk but the Cherokee follow them, also walking. The Comanche and Apache still line the tops of the canyon but make no agressive moves. As they approach the end of the Canyon The Loan Ranger is begining to relax, he can see daylight and the indians surrounding them have not yet attacked. But to his dsimay they exits the canyon to find yet more indians and they have built what appears to be an enormous unlit fire with a pole through its centre. The Loan Ranger turns to Tonto and says in exasperation "Well, what are we gonna do now, Tonto?" and Tonto turns to The Loan Ranger, frowns and says "What do you mean 'WE', pale face?"
