As such, the Pixley Hotel's owner, Murdock Sneep, feigning that his establishment is also full, proposes to Kate that they merge their businesses. Kate kindly declines as she knows how empty the Pixley Hotel is. As such, Sneep vows to ruin Kate. He starts with an aggressive local advertising campaign, which doesn't bother Kate. But when Sneep starts to advertise on Shady Rest property, Kate and Uncle Joe believe his act is the start of war. Both Sneep and Kate/Uncle Joe have the same sorts of ideas as they try to one up the other. The first question becomes whether Kate or Sneep will realize first that their war may be reaping business but is taking a bigger bite in their expenses. And the second question is whether or not anyone else can capitalize on their feud. Written by Huggo See less
