Little Elk anxiously watches Two drive away with Clive and Helen, worrying that the white strangers will harm her. He is now fully devoted to Two, and has gained strength from the sacred herbs she burns in her room. Determined to make her see him, Little Elk sneaks into her dormitory and steals some of her tobacco to smoke. As he leaves the dormitory, he laughs at a picture of white women practicing archery.
Clive invites Helen to a party hosted by the Shacklefords in honor of an Italian artist. Two gets her cast replaced with a smaller, lighter version. At the dormitory, Two spots flakes of tobacco on the floor and realizes someone has stolen from her tobacco pouch. She visits the hippopotamus enclosure where Dinah has been buried. Two notices an electric pole and wonders if Dinah was electrocuted in her pond. Shelton promises to investigate. On her way home, Two hustles patrons who challenge her to a sharp-shooting competition.
Clive’s friend invites him to a dinner and dance at the nearby Oriental Golf Club, and Clive brings Helen as his date. Clive feels reluctant to join fast dances but enjoys slow dancing with Helen.
