In spite of their determination to help the simple, gullible Ole get on his ship for Stockholm, the crew is incapable of passing up the opportunity for a good time drinking and dancing in a seedy bar to which they have been lured by an agent for ships in port looking for crew members. He has his eye on Ole because he is the biggest and strongest of the lot. He drugs Ole's drink, and calls his confederates in to shanghai Ole aboard another ship, the "Amindra". Driscoll and the rest of the crew, even though drunk and almost too late, rescue Ole from the "Amindra", but Driscoll is clubbed and left on board as the crew makes its escape with Ole. The next morning, the crew straggles back somewhat dejectedly and resignedly to the "Glencairn" to sign on for another voyage. A newspaper headline reveals that the "Amindra" has been sunk in the Channel by German torpedoes, killing all on board.
