Coyote Bill proceeds to tell her of the days when the stone hammer was the only means of defense. Weak Hands, feeling the pangs of hunger, leaves his cave in search of food. White Flower, a girl of a neighboring tribe, is courted by Strong Arms. She hates him and runs away. She meets Weak Hands, who has just pounced on a rabbit. He offers it to her. She accepts. The act, according to the custom of the time, constitutes their marriage. So they go to Weak Hands' cave, where they prepare to cook the rabbit. Brute Force, scenting fresh food, enters Weak Hands' cave and obtains the rabbit. He sees White Flower and drives Weak Hands away. Weak Hands returns. Brute Force pursues. Meanwhile Strong Arms has traced White Flower and dragged her from the cave. Brute Force, standing over the prostrate Weak Hands, is just about to put an end to him with his stone hammer when he chances to see Strong Arms dragging White Flower away. He gives chase. The two men fight. White Flower hastens back to the cave, to which Weak Hands also drags himself. Fighting furiously, Strong Arms and Brute Force fall over a high cliff. Weak Hands and White Flower, unmolested, resume their primitive wedding feast. But all this, Coyote Bill tells his little daughter, happened thousands and thousands of years ago.
