Scene:

Mr. Bunghole has found himself in a rather tight spot as the result of following a bum steer from The Invisible Guy, who wanted him off his tail. The false lead has taken Mr. B. to Tierra Del Fuego, where the inhabitants of a small, isolated village thought it would be fun to force the small-footed stranger to walk upon hot coals in order to prove his manliness. It's all in good fun of course; Bunghole can join the party as soon as he finishes his initiation ritual.

As our modern Patagonians look on, laughing and enjoying the spectacle, the village band plays a lively number, over which is heard the voice of Mr. Bunghole -

"Damn you and your transparent soul, The Invisible Guy!"
