As the night shift janitor for the next month, your job is to clean the place up each night, and keep the noise down. Why that second one? Well, buried in the Indian cemetery beneath the diner are two chieftains, Grim Feather and Laughing Bird, who could not [=STAND=] each other in life. Even in death, Laughing Bird can't help wanting to deny his rival his eternal rest by randomly turning on stuff in the diner at night.
