Then, Joe throws a party for his Navajo friends, and the bull, instead of a heifer, is slaughtered and barbequed. Joe does manage to get another bull, but that just leads to more problems. By story's end, Joe has romanced Mamie (Quentin Dean) and even manages to borrow a rodeo bull, win a big stake, and invest in a new herd. Along the way, Joe sings "Dominick," "Stay Away, Joe," "Lovely Mamie," and "All I Needed Was the Rain."
