There was a weird old person who lived in the house on the corner of Shmagren Street, and every morning she could be seen dumping trash out of her top story window into her side yard. Rick and the Crew were biking around one particular morning when they witnessed this exact event, and Tony thought it was a good idea to jeer at her as she dumped. When she finished, she turned her head and glared at Tony but didn't say a word.
The next day, the crew came around again to watch the old lady. Again, Tony jeered, and again, the old lady glared. This repeated several more mornings until the following week, the old lady did things differently. As she began to dump, Tony jeered as he had been doing, and before she proceeded, she instead withdrew the bucket and closed the window. Rick and the Crew looked around at each other in confusion before the old lady exited her front door with her trash bucket in hand.
She walked straight towards the Crew, who backed away slowly, leaving Tony in front by himself. He stood there and stared at the lady in shock. When she reached him, she took the bucket and dumped the trash on his head. Then she returned to her home without saying a word. The Crew burst out laughing at their friend, and Tony just stood there unsure of how to respond.
Eventually he pulled the bucket off his head, and out fluttered hundreds of butterscotch candy wrappers, along with the receipts for the purchase of the candies. When the Crew saw this they realized their mistake, for they absolutely loved butterscotch candies. They immediately ran up to the door and knocked.
The old lady answered with another full bucket in hand, but when she realized they were no threat, she let them in and heard their plea. After some consideration, she forgave them of their offense, and allowed them access to her butterscotch candy stash. Unfortunately, Tony was explicitly forbidden from the stash for his jeering, though she specified that could change if he agreed to clean her side yard every week indefinitely.
