Synopsis
In Warrens City, Vash meets Frank Marlon, an alcoholic gunsmith haunted by the consequences of his actions.
The episode opens at the dead of night, panning down from the moon, to Warrens City's local plant, then the saloon. A man with a toupee walks in front of the lively saloon, finishes of a bottle of alcohol on hand, and walks in. The bartender seems confused at first upon the sound of the doors opening, then recognizes the man with displeasure. The man, drunk to the point of slurring his words, approaches two patrons mid-conversation to ask them for a drink, citing that he had no cash on him. The bartender turns her back to the conversation, as the man continues pestering the patrons for a drink and getting in their personal space, claiming he wasn't picky on the type of alcohol. The two patrons kick him out of the saloon, one of them threatening the man with a bullet between his eyes. Both patrons taunt the drunk man for not responding to them, and kicks him again, demanding he stay away from the saloon. When they leave, the drunk man begins laughing, calling them both "stupid idiots."
The next day, Meryl and Milly are at a cafe in Warrens City, enjoying a banana sundae and tea and cake respectively. Milly asks Meryl about which rumors about Vash the Stampede to pursue for the day, between "a giant man, a red coat, blond hair, or a guy with a mohawk." Meryl, now frustrated with the rumors, insists they both start with the original set of rumors: looking for a gunman amazing enough to have a 60 billion $$ bounty. Milly notes Meryl's description of the gunman as incredibly vague, and Meryl doubles down, saying that they needed to be on guard for anyone matching the description, even in a presumably quiet city like Warren City. Vash the Stampede passes by Milly and Meryl as they are discussing. Milly stands to enthusiastically greet Vash mid-conversation, startling both Meryl and Vash in the process. Vash takes a second to respond, greeting both insurance girls and asks if they were working. Meryl groans as Milly and Vash exchange pleasantries. As Vash continues walking, Milly notes that he matches the description Meryl provided perfectly, and answered to the name Vash the Stampede. Meryl is unconvinced, believing they were looking for a horrible fiend rather than someone she deems an obnoxious idiot
