The crew begins searching for the water sword. The pass through the giant corn maze, outwit a pair of Loberman Pinchers and arrive at Mr. Jim's town. Mr. Jim tries to drive them away to protect his town's dust mine. Unable to stop the crew, he calls the local "puss officer", Lanze the Boil, a grotesque character covered with puss-filled boils that come to life as his posse. The crew falls into the Dust Mine. Quest cures Lanze of his boils, so Lanze reveals the location of the Water Sword. All this time Nestor and Quest are arguing what is better — Quest for brains and Nestor for muscles.
