The street show was always spectacular.
The fast-talking mountebank would show up in the depressed dusty town with a flashy wagon, a box full of his magical elixir, and two sickly-looking members of the audience, planted days earlier.
Within hours, the elixir was allegedly making hair grow, curing dysentery, and fixing marriages all with one swig, while the marks freely tossed what money they had at the feet of the swindler.
Hope sells, and they were all in on buying it, hook, line and sinker.
And by the time they realized it was actually false hope, the flashy wagon was long gone … until the next flashy wagon pulled in months later and promised even more from their batch of snake oil.
