 Affloat with Henry Morgan! Captain Morgan, together with Colonel Atterbury and Sir Thomas Moffat, returns to the flying gull, thinking that perhaps the woman who was masquerading as Antoinette Delacy might have gone there to ask Geoffrey Hunter to give her his protection. Morgan is quite ignorant of the fact that Dolores has conspired with Diets, so that Kitty has betrayed Geoffrey Hunter to the authorities. Abored the flying gull, Morgan finds that both the Aztec Necklet and Hunter are missing, and it naturally concludes that Hunter and the woman have run away together. Then he learns that Kitty was seen wearing the Necklet, and so he takes the other two men with him to the Dolphin Tavern. Meanwhile, Diets has kidnapped Kitty, and Dolores has gone with her into hiding. From the window of the stone hut, the women see Geoffrey being taken to work in the swamp. While this has been happening, Morgan has learned that Kitty has disappeared. The others believe that Geoffrey, Dolores and Kitty have gone off together. But Morgan feels that although this appears to be so, it doesn't seem to make sense. But Morgan's facts are quite obvious. The Aztec Necklet was taken from your ship, and this woman, who I believe to be Antoinette Delacy, has gone. Kitty was seen wearing the Necklet, and now she disappeared. What other conclusions can we come to? They must have all gone away together. They must have, yes. But it still doesn't make sense. Geoffrey Hunter was in love with that woman who was living at your place at Thomas, and I knew that she wanted the Necklet because she tried to steal it once before. Why should Hunter take it and give it to Kitty? Might I suggest that it was given to Kitty to try and throw you off the scent? Hunter possibly gave it to her and then took it away later on. And where has Kitty got to? They might have killed her. It's a possibility, yes. Do they think they can get away with a thing like this? That woman must know that the whole island will be aroused against her, and by Heaven's my men will find Hunter and they'll bring him back to me alive. Then I'll deal with the treacherous scoundrel. I gave him my trust, my friendship, and because a woman comes by and because her arms are soft, he forgets all that I've done for him. Well, I'll remind him when I see him. There's something that we've all overlooked. In the excitement of the chase, we've all forgotten the real Anthony DeLacy, the one that I said goodbye to in England. What has happened to her? There's only one place that she could be. In the hands of the Spanish. Then Heaven help her. If only we discovered this imposter when she arrived. I might have been able to help you, Sir Thomas. I might have been able to find out where the girl was and so rescue her in time. But now? By now, she would have been sold into slavery and that makes me all the more keen to find this woman who impersonated her. I'll not let the militia rest a moment until she is found. Well, I'm going to leave the search in your hand, Sir Thomas. And when you find them, I expect you to hold Hunter until I return. Where are you going, Captain Morgan? Sir Thomas knows I have little project in view and after this, I feel I want to get out and do some fighting. Get away from Port Royal and the treachery of the man I trusted. I'll be sailing with my fleet almost immediately, Sir Thomas. I'll fight them. I'll boil the fat Spanish merchant alive to make them tell me the hiding place of the treacher. I'll slip their stomachs and hang and quarter them. But your ships are not fully provisioned. They'll have two days to finish the job. Then we sail provisioned or not provisioned. I have sent for me, Captain Morgan. Yes, shut the door. I just wanted to talk to you, dear Arch. Yes, Captain. Reluctantly, I have to give you back your position aboard the flying guard. In the best navigator I've got is the only other man aboard the ship who knows the way I like things to run. I'm doing it with reluctance because I have no other choice. You understand that, dear Arch? Yes, Captain Morgan. Where were you last night, dear Arch? I was out with some friends. Were you at the Dolphin Tevin? No, I did not go there last night. I don't suppose there's anything I can tell you which you don't know already. If you'll forgive me for saying this, Captain, but you remember I told you that you placed too much trust in a strange man of whom you knew nothing. Keep quiet, you dog! I thought I'd let man mention aboard the ship. I'll deal with him when the time comes. Yes, he'll get what he deserves when we return to Fort Royal. When we return? We're sailing, sir. It's two days' time. Whether the fleet is ready or not, we sail. In two days' time? Yes. Can it be that my orders do not please you? Ah, because not, Captain. May I ask what your plans are? No, you might not. Never again will I trust my plans to anyone. You'll receive your orders when we're out at sea. That is all you can go. But remember, you're being restored to your position aboard this ship because there's no one else suitable to take your place. I don't trust you. I know what a treacherous swine you are. Now get out and about your business. Make sure that the fleet is ready to put the sea in two days' time. Take your place beside this nigger and keep on digging this drain. You've got your pick on your shovel, and remember if I catch a loaf in it, not working as fast and as hard as I think you should, I'll flog you both to death. Men's lives are cheapier. There are plenty to take your place when you go, and go your will before long. I'll be watching you. You mean less to me than the reptiles and crawls through the jungle. I have supreme power of life and death over here. Now get to work, and don't forget I'll be watching you. You better do as he says, NASA. Swine, I'd like to clap him right on the point of a joke. You do that, and you not live as long as anyone else. You just do as he says. Maybe you live as long as I have. You've been here long? Longer than anyone else. You take up your shovel and start working with me. We can talk as we dig. We have to finish this drain by tonight else we all get flogged. But how long have you been trying to drain these swamps? I don't know. I've only been here a month. A month? I thought you said you'd been here the longest. So I have. If a man lives here in the swamps for a week, they think he lives a mighty long time. Doesn't anyone try to get away? Get away? When they have you chained up all night? Rather, you was asking a mighty impulsive thing. Better make up your mind that you is here to stay till the very end. It won't be very long. They work so hard during the day that man is too tired to get up at night and think about running away. You just go back to your hut and they chain up and your mighty glare to lie on the floor and sleep. And they don't let you sleep long. Get you up before the sun comes up. You stay out until the sky is quite dark. Sometimes the guards get very bored so they like to play with their whips. I've seen them cut men to pieces and throw their bodies to the alligators. Alligators here? Sure. The swamps' full of alligators. During the day, he and man scream and, you know, an alligator sneaked up behind him and then the swamp waters are stained red. But sure you can see the alligator coming? They sometimes don't get a chance. The gators come up these drains here. Water's deep. There's just a faint ripple. There's snouts out of the water. Before a man knows it, the gages have got him. I've seen them snap a man clean in half. Then there's the fever. There are insects and flies around. They bite him. In a few hours' time, the man is a raven mad. Before you know what has happened, he's thrown to rot in the jungle. There's no good, so they throw him out and let him die. No wonder that no one lives more than a week. Quickly! Go for your life. Up to bank. Is the gator coming now? Ask no questions going up. That's right. Come up. Heavens is falling apart, the alligator. There's a chance of saving himself. I'm almost there. There's an iron staff. It just might do the trick. Here it comes, jaws wide open. Now I can put this bike right down its throat. Now's the chance that I miss it. There'll be two bad principles. Quick! Come on, quickly. Let me help you out. Come on. I thought I was no longer going to be the oldest inhabitant here. I sure thought my days were finished. Up to bank now. I think the alligator's finished. That was a much brave thing you did for a negro. I was going to stay there and what's the alligator going to take you? He's dead now. Nobody else would have done that for me. The gate is dead. We'd best go down and get that bathroom out of his throat. Otherwise oversea may trouble for you. You're my friend. My name is Hero. You saved my life. I'll not forget that. Someday, maybe, I might save yours. Go over and done with it now. My name's Jeffrey. You better get back to work before we strike more trouble. Now that is, I had to come and see you tonight. I have news. What has happened in Port Royal? Are they searching for me? Yes, everybody is out looking for you. Is there any chance that they're looking for me here? No, no. No, I might think I'm looking for you near the swamps. This old deserted hut is forgotten. They never think a woman would come to the swamps where there's death. Nonetheless, they never find you. The Captain Morgan is sitting with his fleet in two days' time. What am I going to do? I can't sail with him? When does the ship come to take us? Not yet. Not until after Captain Morgan sails. You will have to desert. That is all you can do. You still awake? Yes, Hero. I'm still awake. All other men are asleep. We can talk now. I want to tell you something. What is it, Hero? I've been waiting to tell you this ever since you rescued me. But I was frightened someone might overhear us. I must tell you now because it's late and if one is asleep, well, what is it? I has gone to escape and I've taken you with me. Hope surges again within Jeffrey Hunter. What plans can Hero have for escape? You'll hear of them in the next exciting episode of Affloats with Henry Morgan.
