On his bike, with the Banner Gibson guitar over his shoulder, Harry drives down to Slow River when his pant cuff gets caught in his bike chain and he falls in front of Jollimore’s trailer. An exotic barefoot woman comes out to the road to pull him off. ‘I’m Clarissa. They call me, ‘Baby Fingers,’ she says and Harry is stunned by her beauty. Harry goes down the road with Clarissa to the old rusted trailer with the blue victory wings.

Jollimore teaches Harry the graveyard chords C, F and G. He then breaks into song with the guitar at the gravestones, singing, 'The Cannonball'. Father Don rushes across the road: ‘Stop the guitar! The R.I.P. means, Rest In Peace!’

Back to the graveyard, where it came from for Harry. Ja-joe Jollimore was the graveyard worker that introduced Harry to the guitar. Jollimore discloses to Harry that he is a guitar player. Harry has no interest in guitars. This distresses Jollimore.

Harry is up against it. He rents a tiny room at the Tarantula Arms with a shared bath down at the end of the hall. His only income is his guitar gig at the Crybaby Bar. He has a plan, though. He will make a come-back with a song he never recorded, one that he was saving for an emergency, one that says it all, 'The Cannonball'
