One day, Logger Vick reads about this "hypnotizing bear spray" in the newspaper. The advertisement highlights its magic power to cause hypnotic trances to any bear who gets sprayed. Logger Vick sees it as a great weapon to deal with the bears. So he orders one. Under the influence of the spray, Bramble's mind goes blank, and he is completely under Vick's control. He does whatever Vick does like a puppet.
