they went back to their homes disappointed
As are we :) This is sort of a story that didn't happen. It's true the friends went into the forest and came back together, but nothing really occurred. This is almost just a character sketch of unreliable Max--and his silly friends who should have known better (he is a retired junky after all). The story is a little bit funny, though.
