Um... I don't actually remember the first two points actually being told to us... Either I have a really bad memory or you never told us the bits about Starlong... I think it's the first one... Even so, Fire Bear would still attempt to get Starlong to answer Pete's question...

Let's assume we just had a lengthy conversation and those were the results.
Oh, and Stewart? My memory is perfectly intact. I was drunk and we were in a storm. I was tossed overboard and can't find my ship. It was Enigma who had the memory problems that involved an airship in some way.
Anyway, in response to Starlong's query:
"What about some fresh produce? We've been eating tinned mystery meat for quite some time now."

"I second that," Vinny chimed in to agree with Pete; food was a topic he was happy to discuss whenever. "You should never pass up a chance for fresh goods. And maybe some alcohol, if there's any available?" he added hopefully.

Tsunami interjects here: "considering how you all did helping out... maybe I should be the one to deal with that?"

"In all fairness, we barely helped out. But hey, I don't mind if no one else does."

"We'd be very grateful, Tsunami - in our own ways..."

Tsunami nods, and attracts the farmer's attention.
"Sir, I think it may be time for me to move on... but we have no provisions... would it be possible for you to provide us with some? An extra point... if you can, then we can leave sooner, and they can't screw anything else up."
I'm basically rolling a diplomacy check here, eh? so i should get +1 from my intimidating presence... maybe another +1 or +2 for being so familiar with him? and of course a bonus of getting rid of the rest of the party.
If I fail, I DO have another plan though.
My roll was... 16

Now, now, FB; you don't want to give the poor boy the wrong idea.
Despite the colossal damage and disruption you have caused during your time here at the farm, Tsu is able to secure a small amount of supplies to be loaded into your truck, some excess tins of milk and a little food from the stores; enough to tide you over until you reach Southampton-on-sea.
He also has a small supply of homemade beer that is not so much a fluid as a syrup. It smells even stronger than spirits and he gives you a small jar of this 'beer' paste.
So you're leaving then?

Ready when everyone else is. I believe I will hesitantly sample the 'beer' paste though, just to see if it's safe for general consumption.

"I believe in the name of science I should sample that beer paste too," Vinny chirped as Pete tried it. "After all, a one-off test is statistically useless..."

What are you, suicidal?! What's the point in having you on our side?
Apart from saving our lives several times... Damn.

I grin inanely. Maybe it's the 'beer' paste, maybe it's the fact that Fire Bear just realised how much fun I'm going to have reminding her about the multiple times I've saved her life.

Guys, that beer is 60-70% alcoholic. Go easy.
And Tsu, there's no need for a speech check; you've already done enough for the farmer and his family to earn his goodwill and some supplies for your new travelling fellows (but out of interest; what was Plan B?)
Anyway, I'd say it was time to get going. If you're done, then head to the truck and decide who's going where (Driver, passenger seat (shotgun!), the flatbed, etc).

Unless you'd rather one of the drunks got in the driver seat...?
