The scene continues in the jail cell. Sheriff Bart asks Jim what he likes to do? Jim considers and says he likes to play chess. He then adds he likes to screw. Bart immediately suggests a game of chess. We then cut to the game in progress and just as Bart makes a move, he calls out checkmate. Jim is impressed and they toast to Bart's victory. Sheriff Bart then asks why Jim seems bent on drinking himself to death. As the episode comes to a close, Jim reveals he used to be called, "The Waco Kid." Bart does not believe him at all, mocking that the Waco Kid had the fastest hand in the West. Jim corrects him, "...in the world!"

Today’s guest is Jonathan Howell, who likes to talk about movies, maybe a little too much. He fell in love with the Movies By Minutes format and decided to join. Along with his college friend, Chris, they investigate the movie Mission: Impossible (1996) one minute at a time. You can find Jonathan as one of the hosts of Minute: Impossible and he has also been a guest on Galaxy Quest Minute, Cabin in the Woods and upcoming on Titanic Minute, Mad Max, Flash Gordon, Spider-Man 2, DarkKnight  and  Watchmen Minute.
