Synopsis for "Once Upon a Time"
When Tycho saw a dead body that came from the crate that was shipped from Vietnam at Wyalusing General Store, he told the owner a story about a boy in China who was raised by tigers before a prince found him and called him, "Nou Yu T'u." Due to the child being born after his princess had an affair, she was cast out and the prince raised the boy while the former princess' mother became a sorceress and killed the prince after he became the king years later in an attempt to gain the kingdom's riches. Nou Yu T'u transformed into a tiger and slayed his grandmother but died after ingesting her blood which had been curdled into poison due to years of "hate" and evil sorcery although the former princess later became queen as previously intended.
After finishing his story, Tycho said that not very much of it was true and offered to buy the body from the store's owner. Meanwhile, Thayer bailed Shyleen out of jail after Vic asked him to.
