;Plot Summary
[[Aether spores#Verdant|Verdant spores]] slowly begin to flow through the hole and contact the water the cannonball delivered, exploding into a mass of vines. [[Dorp]] comes down to patch the hole with [[Aether spores#Roseite|roseite spores]] then kills any remaining spores with [[silver]]. Tress calls for him to bring her above deck, thinking that the attacking ship must be a royal ship and so would stop firing if they see her dressed as a royal inspector.

;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 that 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 that 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.
