- While local bank manager Arthur Carruthers is away on business in Toronto, a suit named Morton Stanley from the regional office in Vancouver comes in in an acting manager capacity. One of his first orders of business as he sees is to seize the Persephone as he feels Nick has defaulted on his $8,000 loan by only paying interest on it, despite Nick having an agreement with Carruthers to do so when business is slow, such as now. Just as the bailiff Charlie is ordered to put the seizure notice on the Persephone, Nick manages to escape with his boat with a somewhat reluctant passenger, Pat, who just happened to be on the boat at the time. Relic, however, senses an opportunity and offers to buy the loan from the bank in order to put Nick out of business. Stanley agrees. This situation lays the framework for each person's task. Nick and Pat's task is to hide themselves and the boat from Stanley and Relic. Relic and city slicker Stanley's task is to find Nick and the Persephone. John's task is to uphold the law by finding Nick, but he who wants Relic and Stanley out of his way. Jesse's task is to see if he can raise the money to pay off the loan. And bank employee Laurel's task is to see if she can contact Carruthers in Toronto to override who she sees as her opportunistic and slimy temporary boss.—Huggo
