 Picking up where ''[[The Showdown (short story)|The Showdown]]'' left off, [[Jenny Everywhere (Jenny Everywhere Visits the Heroines Guild)|Jenny Everywhere]] is still on [[Planet 19-1-14-4]], taking her time carrying captured outlaw [[Amber Kelly]] to the closest [[Heroines Guild]] outpost. Jenny has made sure to parade the villainess through every town in a five-mile radius, allowing her to be pelted with rotten fruit and eggs. Finally, the two women reach [[Heroines Guild Outpost 4890]]. Jenny unties Amber but keeps her gag and puts a leashed collar on her as she leads her into the unimpressive-looking shack, which Jenny opens using her [[Heroines Guild wrist link]] and an identification code (JED 8/13/2023), revealing that it is a front for a high-tech underground facility.
-There, Jenny asks Amber to be a “good girl” as she takes off her gag, but the villainess wastes her chance, punching Jenny and then fruitlessly trying to use the identification code to open the doors back up and escape; however, she soon realises that the code is useless unless one is wearing one of the high-tech wrist-bands. Holding her at gunpoint with one of her own ivory-handled guns, Jenny decides to punish her for this misbehaviour by not letting her clean herself up before her mugshot. After taking the picture in question, she has Amber move over to the [[Statuficaton-5000]] pad, which freezes her in place, conscious but unable to move anything but her eyes. Jenny takes advantage of this to pose Amber like a doll, putting one of her hands between her legs to make it appear as though she is pleasuring herself, then takes a selfie with her and leaves her alone and frozen in the facility, though not before notifying her Heroines Guild handler [[Laura (Downtime)|Laura]] to send a team to pick up Amber and the horses.

 [[Shift]]ing back to the [[Heroines Guild]] HQ, Jenny heads to the offices, but, when she spots [[Gina (Jenny Everywhere Visits the Heroines Guild)|Gina]]'s latest humiliation — the naked, bald [[witch]] has been strapped into a machine which forces her to clean and shine people's shoes with her tongue. Jenny relaxes in the chair and lets it run for a continuous 60 minutes while she drifts off for a little nap. After returning to her office, she boots up her computer and, after noticing that tickets are available for “this year's [[Hullabalooza]]” and ordering herself a couple, she considers beginning to write her mission expense report, only to decide that she needs a drink first. She wanders over to ''[[The Drunken Heroine]]'', the Guild's on-site bar. There, she orders a [[Pan-Galactic Gargle Blaster]].
