Sam is a little bit disappointed that he couldn't make use of the research results of the wood made with the bagasse to his advantage. But that disappointment vanished when he looked at the results of the molasses.
For this research, he has an assistant and it is none other than his refined brewer of liquor. The Ape.
Ape has been involved in the liquor research so much that he didn't even care about his urges to battle anymore. But if anyone thinks that he is a weak guy, then they would be sorely mistaken and it was clearly proved by the remaining beasts.
Once Yanwu got a little cheeky and tried to mess up one of the Ape's experiments and both of them went into a fight. Even though Yanwu has the upper hand it is extremely slight and both of them bled so much with so many broken bones and ape with burned flesh that if the rest of the beasts didn't interfere and inform Sam who was busy, they would have suffered irreparable damage.
