Detailed Synopsis
Moist Von Lipwig talks about how the gods must have a sense of humor considering they placed the world on the back of Great A'Tuin.
An Old Lady asks a Clacks, which is a messaging service using towers and lights, Cashier to send a message to her cousin demanding they pay the money they owe her or die. John Dearheart's Clacks malfunctions and as he goes to repair it, he hears a voice and the rope he is hanging from suddenly breaks and John falls to his death. Moist pens a letter describing the past few months of his life. He starts at the beginning when he was orphaned and then sold his old family horse by painting it with shoe polish to make it look young and selling it to a Farmer. Through more horse trades he was able to buy a real diamond, which he then used to trick Sapphire into buying a glass diamond, by switching the two. He then went to the Cabbage Growers Bank where he sold fake bonds to the Bank Clerk. He buys a paper from Aggy and then trades fake money for real bonds from the Undertaker. Sergeant Angua and the City Watch start to investigate and arrest Moist after she threatens to eat Moist. He is placed in prison and uses a spoon to dig out the mortar around a stone block. After he removes the stone, he finds another stone wall, with a spoon in front of it. Drumknott claps his hands and tells Moist, he will be hung in half an hour. He is brought before Trooper who gets his signature. Drumknott walks up and tells Trooper to hurry it up on order of Lord Vetinari.
