* {{Foreshadowing}}: The Swede tells Mississippi a story about a gunfighter who had [[CantSeeWithoutEm lousy eyesight]] who tended to shoot in the general direction of where he heard the other guy coming from. [[AccidentalMurder He shot a particularly noisy piano player.]] When J.P. Harrah and his posse go into a bar looking for a wounded gunman they were tracking, the trail of blood leads behind a piano being played by a ''very'' nervous and off-key piano player.

** Several different people dropping by while J.P. is taking what is widely stated to be a well-needed bath and giving him bars of soap. Adding to his indignity, the sheriff's office lacks a private place to bathe, so he's basically in the middle of the room as people parade through.
