Some poor friars decided they needed to make some repairs to their monastery, so they opened a small florist shop to raise the necessary funds. Since everyone felt good about buying flowers from the men of God, the rival florist across town was quickly losing business, and believed the competition to be unfair. The rival florist asked the good fathers to close down, but they would not. He went back and begged the friars to close their shop... they ignored him. Finally, he asked his mother to plead with the friars to close their very popular florist shop. The good friars ignored her as well. At his wit's end, the rival florist finally hired Hugh MacTaggard, the roughest and most vicious thug in town to "persuade" them to close. Terrified, they did so, thereby proving... that Hugh, and only Hugh, can prevent florist friars.
