In the 1930s four friends in Ireland get drunk, and hatch a plan to pay off their tab by stealing some goats and selling them, but their plan doesn't go very smoothly. They get beat up by the goats, and when they eventually get them on they're boat; the goats smash the oars and swim out to see. 50 years later there are still legends of Sea-Goats. This story is based on the song "The Rustling Goat Gang" by Gaelic Storm
