Three friars were behind on their belfry payments, so they opened 
up a small florist shop to raise the necessary funds. 

Since everyone liked to buy flowers from the men of God, the rival 
florist across town thought the competition was unfair. 

He asked the good fathers to close down, but they would not. 

He went back and begged the friars to close.

They ignored him.

He asked his mother to go and ask the friars to get out of business. 

They ignored her too. So, the rival florist hired Hugh MacTaggart, the 
roughest and most vicious thug in town to "persuade" them to close. 

Hugh beat up the friars and trashed their store, saying he'd be back 
if they didn't close their shop.

Terrified, they did so, thereby proving that...

Hugh, and only Hugh, can prevent florist friars.
