Produced by Mollie Austin in the BBC's West of England studios
Noel and Tom have been sold into slavery on Cuba and Jack Babbiscombe has become their overseer. He plans their escape, and they get away by commandeering a small boat (and Manuel, its owner) at the port of Silos. They take a chance and put to sea in the hope that they will be picked up by a homebound vessel. They are picked up, but by the villainous Elisha Small, bound once again for the Island of Silver Keys.
