A muddled scene aboard a river steamer recounts a tense exchange between Captain Corcoran and Kirby. Abe Lincoln and others appear in dialogue as an escape plan unfolds with a landing party preparing to reach the bank using a stern gangway while the crew contends with muddy obstacles and looming action.
In a moonlit escape, the narrator surfaces from the river to follow Kirby’s trail and locate Blaine. He plans to reveal his identity and ally with Hodlug Klose to demand immediate release, hoping to cripple Kirby’s control and force safe custody for the prisoner. He weighs risks, resolve firm, and moves toward the Dirt Cinecon with stealth.
A deputy and a river man recount a brutal Mississippi scheme involving Kirby and Bert Beaucaire. They plot to seize control of Beaucaire’s estate by exploiting a mixed race heiress and a staged plan to move enslaved people. The conspirators lure, drink, and discuss a quiet crime as they eat supper in a rough river camp.
