When Zoyd gets to Mucho's he "searched all over the place for any evidence
of the guest stash" and ends up having "to roll and light one of his own"
when he can't find the stash (309.1-3). So, where did he get his "own",
after being cleaned out while in gaol?

Being able to wipe the baby's bottom away from her front and "Keep 'em legs
together, teen bimbo" (55) don't exactly qualify him as Father of the Year.

Back then an acid trip was more important to Zoyd than his child's birth.
