Augusta Merson awakens to find two drunken sailors dead by a cliff and her party stranded with a child on a desolate coast. A passing American ship, the Harpoon, arrives to take them aboard, while Augusta meets Captain Thomas and his crew who promise shelter and safety for her and Dick as they begin their long voyage to a new life.
Augusta shares the tattoo tale and recent escape aftermath aboard the Harpoon cabin life with Dick.
