Salmon's Stewart will have to clear both the main drain and the two beaver dams if they want to restore the water flow. If you got a foot of mud all the way around your pipe inlet, it's got to reduce flow. It'd be like having a big water hair in your bathtub drain. The mud, that's like more mud than I want to shovel! I'm not a young man; I don't operate a shovel that well anymore. Yeah, I'm better to pass out lightheaded.

Whoo! Here he comes. Oh, look at that! That's not good. That means we're plugged up somewhere. When I put that down, water is actually coming through that pipe. Typical Murphy's Law! Yeah, it's turning into a little more. But typical, that's how things roll.

Oh, I feel something, Stewie. Do we have anything longer than this? You're out here in the middle of nowhere; you have to be creative when you're trying to get a little project done. Even if there's just a trickle coming through, I'll be happy.

Well, I could blow right through it. Can you hear that, Stewart? Your bubbles coming out or anything? Yeah! Oh, we got water, Stewart! Getting it! Yeah, I don't think we have to worry. The only water that's coming through is just seeping slowly through the whole dam, through the mud, which is ideal.

Next step, Stewart, is to knock one of them dams apart up there and actually get this thing full of water as we can. It won't take that much. Once we fill the dam, we can piss off Delia and piss off those beavers! If I got all the mud off my face... Yeah, you go; there's a little bit left up there in your solar panels.
