Ruth frets on the porch as a heavily mounted pair approach. Morgan Norris demands food and horses, hints at vengeance against the Chiswick family, and asserts control over Ruth, who resists while Nelly and Kansas react with fear and defiance.
In a tense exchange Norris and Morg argue over protection and violence as Morg pressures for more horses. Kansas and Ruth respond with caution while Morg’s chilling assurance hints at looming danger in a lawless frontier setting.
Norris threatens Ruth and her friend while coercing them to fetch clothes for a planned escape. The man curses, hints at violent control, and vows to force submission. Nelly slips away to the smoke-house as tension mounts and the scene ends with Ruth and her captor moving toward the room for garments.
