In a fragmentary scene from a continuing chapter, a junior agent grapples with a private diamond case, a concealed box reappears, and a masked visitor delivers the diamonds back, complicating loyalties and risking exposure.

The text then shifts to a colonial memory invoking Miles Standish and Priscilla Mullins.
