;Plot Summary
In the morning Crow gives Tress the key to the Sprouter's cabin (Tress notes the Captain also has a copy). Crow shows her around the worktable and basin and explains the room is lined with aluminum to protect the spores from the silver that protects the crew. Tress is delighted to sleep in the private bunk. Huck wakes her complaining that the ship did acquire a cat. She tells him to stick with her for protection, then gets her cups to arrange in the cabin. She hopes that even if this crew doesn't wind up getting her to Charlie, maybe she can at least gather a ransom with them. As she looks at the butterfly cup, she decides she will have to find some other way to free him besides robbery.
 
Ulaam drops in and they talk about Weev's experiments, and how verdant can be cultivated as emergency food. She asks the doctor what's wrong with Hoid, He explains Hoid was cursed by the sorceress, and Ulaam traveled to this planet at his request. She is both excited to learn this and panicked to realize how close she came to leaving without knowing that this crew really could be the key to saving Charlie.
