Sunabouzu - 8: The Dog Woman and the Boulder

Title:Sunabouzu
Episode:8: The Dog Woman and the Boulder
Synopsis
The Dogwoman Boulder is a giant, obelisk-like piece of rock which the new owner of a tract of land wants moved. But legend has it that anyone who tries to do so will suffer from a curse, and numerous misfortunes have already befallen those who tried. The landowner goes to the Handyman Guild, but no one will take the job. The coordinator goes to Sunabouzu, and tells him that this represents an excellent opportunity to reestablish his reputation after the embarassments he has suffered recently. Sunabouzu refuses to believe in curses, and derides the other handymen as "pussies"--a comment which certain characters overhear. As he and Taiko hike to the site of the boulder, they have a number of close calls, which Taiko is certain are a result of the curse. When they arrive, a sandstorm swells up out of nowhere, and a doglike shadow emerges...
Comments
An interesting element of this series is the tendency of characters from past episodes to show up yet again--including characters which you'd never expect to see again.
