Moe stands up to the zucchini foreman for his family, and then fearing for his safety, Moe escapes to the hills and ends up running from a bear he jumps into a well and is pulled ot by a Native American named Sally and her beffalo Zippy. when the bear comes back Moe breaks a stick off a stump and scares the bear away by hitting it on the nose(he later named it sliver and took it everywhere he went) . Moe soon meets Sally's parents and he marries her,they raise a family and have a son who is skilled with the yo-yo However, some years later, a "burning tumbleweed" appears before Moe and tells him to return to Dodgeball City and save his people. He showed him a miracle in which his staff turns into a rattlesnake that Zippy is scared of. Moe explains to the weed that he can't speak in public and "imagining them in their underwear never worked". the tumbleweed (God) tells him that he will send someone to speak for him, so Moe sets off for dodge ball city Sally gives him a costume with a mask so the mayor won't reconize him. Moe sets off for dodge ball city with Zippy, he travels around the dessert and finally finds his brother Aaron (Archibald Asparagus) who works as a souvinear salesman in the dessert selling rubber tomhawks and agrees to work with Moe with Moe and tells the zucchini mayor (Mr.Nezzer) to "let my people go."
