Event success: Farmer Jeb: I thank you. My cows thank you. Everyone who eats beef and drinks milk thanks you.

Event failure: Farmer Jeb: Now that the hay is gone, what will the cows eat?; Farmer Diah: They'll hang for this.; Farmer Jeb: The cows?; Farmer Diah: No, the bandits! I think you let your head get too close to the flames.

Farmer Diah walks away and promptly returns: Farmer Jeb: Don't worry dear, the next crop will be even better.; Farmer Diah: Ha! You're right. It'll be our best crop ever. We'll show those bandits! Wooooo!
