This error message tells you the problem: the `stub` method in the second
example returns an instance of RSpec::Mocks::MessageExpectation, not the double
itself. If you did it this way, you'd get what you were looking for:
hit = mock('hit')
hit.stub(:stored) { 5 }
hit.stored.should eq(5)
Make sense?
