Perhaps you should consider spending a little more time at the shooting range.

Elmer, deciding to turn down Mark's offer to guide him out of Lost Forest, decides to instead shoot the intrepid woodsman (and his meddling dog, too). Bad idea, my friend. Maybe you should have taken a moment to think about how successful your previous shots have been. Did you ever manage to really hit what you aimed at? (FYI, Joey doesn't count since he's still alive.) As Elmer prepares to take his shot, the Jack Elrod Ball sneaks up behind him and navigates its way through the pile of barrels. Then, blinded by rage that Elmer would dare to shoot at Andy, the bestest dog in the whole wide world, it sends the pile toppling down upon the hapless huntsman, knowing that at least it would survive, being a ball and all that can just bounce out of the way. All of this leaves us asking many questions. Will Elmer survive? Will the Jack Elrod Ball be charged with murder or attempted murder? Was some other force at work behind the barrel avalanche (a graboid, perhaps)? Are Andy and Mark okay? Does this mean that Mark won't get to punch or tackle Elmer? Can Mark get enough bars for his cell phone to work, or will he have to carry Elmer to safety? Does Mark even own a cell phone? We'll just have to wait and see.
