Pinckney schemes to ruin Sommers gun order in Washington

Pinckney and Marsh plot to delay or destroy the Rhinestrom gun by coercing Smith and Marsh to cover up a deadly plan. Pinckney pressures Marsh to stay quiet and arrange Smith’s removal of the gun, while Sommers arrives early to check the situation and expose the scheme.
