Dee Bradley Baker: Announcer, Olmec

Quotes 

• Olmec : One of the most fearless mountain men of all time was Jedediah Strong Smith. In the early 1800s, he was the first frontiersman to brave the blizzards, deadly animals, and treacherous passes of the Sierras. He also led the first wagon train into California. Legend has it, he was as tough as a buzzard and meaner than a polecat. Nothing scared him. One morning while he was shaving, and his trapper friend Bill was burning the biscuits, a bear came up behind Jedediah. His breath was hot on Jedediah's neck, but he just went right on shaving. Bill tried to warn him./"Jed, don't look now. There's a 600-pound grizzly standin' right behind ya!"/"Grizzly? Ha! That's nothin' but a well-fed mountain mole."/With a great roar, the bear charged, and Bill knew he'd never reach his gun in time. But like lightning, Jedediah whipped around and conked the bear's head with his metal shaving pan. The astonished bear let out a yelp and then turned around and ran. Jed looked ruthfully at his bent shaving pan then wiped a drop of blood off his cheek./"Ya hurt, Jed?"/Naw, just nicked myself shavin'."/When they got to California, Jedediah got a new shaving pan, and the old one ended up in the Temple. Your task is to find the bent shaving pan of Jedediah Strong Smith and bring it back here.

  Kirk : Olmec, tell us. Where is the bent shaving pan?

  Olmec : The bent shaving pan of Jedediah Smith can be found in the King's Storeroom.
