HEDLEY: I've decided to launch an attack that will reduce Rock Ridge to ashes!
When all his other plans have failed, Hedley Lamarr decides to launch an all-out attack on Rock Ridge that'll destroy the place entirely. Little does he know that Bart is getting the people of the town to create an entire replica town for Hedley's men to destroy. All the violence in the world won't accomplish anything if you're not directing it at the right target.

TAGGART: Oh, that uppity n***** went'n hit me on the head with a shovel.
After a big evil speech, Hedley Lamarr notices that his henchman Taggart has a big bandage wrapped around his head.

The funny thing is that even though Taggart spends his days whipping his workers, he's shocked that one of them would lash out at him.
