| Up Schitt Creek | comment |
Up Schitt Creek is a 2023 western novella by Mr. Brogath.Glen Doyle is a former Civil War soldier still reeling from the deaths of his sons. Unable to cope properly, Glen became an alcoholic and slowly drove away his wife, Mollie, and daughter, Annie. One day, while passed out from inebriation, Mollie and Annie are kidnapped. It isn't long before Glen realizes both of them were kidnapped, nor is it long before he discovers the gang of outlaws who took them. Seeing no other option, Glen decides to sober up and chase down the outlaws alongside a young woman named Jessie, who's also seeking vengeance after they murdered her family. | |

Alcohol-Induced Idiocy | |
| Up Schitt Creek / int_16ddefda | comment |
Alcohol-Induced Idiocy: What starts the plot, and why Glen chooses to become sober. Why didn't Glen try to prevent Mollie and Annie's kidnapping? Glen got so drunk that he passed out in an outhouse for hours. This gave Ralph and his men plenty of time to abduct the two of them without Glen knowing what happened until it was far too late. | |

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome | |
| Up Schitt Creek / int_3ed23024 | comment |
Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: There is no drawn out shootout or excessive fight between Ralph and the protagonists. When Jessie rides into town seeking help, she happens upon Ralph and one of his goons. The moment she sees an opening, she guns them both down with little fanfare. | |

Dropped a Bridge on Him | |
| Up Schitt Creek / int_43a045de | comment |
Dropped a Bridge on Him: Sheriff Cal, a supporting character who greatly aids Glen and Jessie on their journey, is abruptly shot in the head by Chief Hawk at the end of Chapter 10. Glen briefly laments that his death was a "damn shame," but outside of that, no one comments about it. | |

Drowning My Sorrows | |
| Up Schitt Creek / int_52488c54 | comment |
Drowning My Sorrows: Glen started drinking heavily in a vain attempt to come to terms over the death of his sons. He never succeeded and only wound up spurning his wife and daughter. | |

Police Are Useless | |
| Up Schitt Creek / int_59907e4f | comment |
Police Are Useless: With the exception of Sheriff Cal, who learns about most of Ralph's evil schemes and briefly helps Glen and Jessie stop Chief Hawk's tribe (before he himself also dies), most of the deputies in the story exist solely to die. This is even lampshaded by Cal himself when he tells Glen that he only became Sheriff after the last several were killed in rapid succession over the course of a couple months. | |

Disc-One Final Boss | |
| Up Schitt Creek / int_6de71c57 | comment |
Disc-One Final Boss: The Comanche Chief Hawk is the one who's been hiring outlaws to kidnap white women, and his tribe attack the protagonists on more than one occasion. However, Jessie kills him about two-thirds of the way into the story, but his death has little impact on the plot, and Glen and Jessie still have to face off against Ralph's gang and thwart the train heist. | |

The Alcoholic | |
| Up Schitt Creek / int_7eebe99c | comment |
The Alcoholic: Glen Doyle is a classic example, being a rugged old man who gets drunk on a daily, sometimes hourly basis to numb his pain. | |

Why Don't You Just Shoot Him? | |
| Up Schitt Creek / int_bce16d24 | comment |
Why Don't You Just Shoot Him?: Subverted. When Jessie comes across Ralph and kills the man accompanying him, Ralph tries to persuade her to back down, calling her a coward and saying she doesn't have it in her. She ignores his taunts and shoots him in the chest, killing him almost instantly. | |
