"Hm... I'm afraid I don't have an answer for that... Nothing really seems funny anymore."
A heavy sigh was heard inside the window...
"... There was... One thing I did hear... A story, if you will...
It went like this: There was a man - a merchant - traveling along the countryside with his wagon of goods... But one day, the wheel of his cart had gotten caught, and broke off. But luck was on his side, as a Hunter and his dog came passing by.
The merchant pleaded with the Hunter to keep watch over his cart while he went back to town to find a new wheel, to which the Hunter agreed... The merchant departed. But as time went on, the Hunter grew increasingly worried for his ailing mother at home.
... So the Hunter entrusted his companion to keep watch over the cart, and await the merchant's return... Some time after the Hunter's departure, the merchant returned with the replacement wheel. Grateful that the hound had kept watch over his cart, the merchant gave the dog a pouch of gold to bring to his master as a sign of thanks.
The dog returned to the Hunter's home. But when the Hunter saw the pouch, he became enraged:
'I told you to watch the cart, and what did you do? You stole from it!'
... And then the Hunter shot the dog."
