[[Two cowboys face off silently in the desert, the blazing sun beating down.]]
[[They exchange steely glares, hands poised to reach their guns, as a tumbleweed rolls into frame.]]
<<TUMBLE>>
[[Close-up on the tumbleweed. It draws two guns.]]
<<CLICK CLICK>>
[[The tumbleweed shoots both cowboys simultaneously, and they fall backwards.]]
<<BLAM BLAM>>
{{Title text: The tumbleweed then tried to roll off into the sunset, but due to the Old West's placement north of the subtropical ridge, the prevailing winds were in the wrong direction.}}
