Hannah is dragged before the village after neighbors accuse her of murdering Freddie following a chaotic fight. The chief tells her to lower her bow and asks for her grievance, but witnesses scream that she cursed families, stole, and tried to kill them. Hannah insists she only defended herself while villagers press the chief with bribes — 'Do the right thing, Chief!' — and demand she be expelled. The crowd ties her to a stake and shouts, 'Burn her!' Bound and pleading, 'Let me go!,' Hannah faces imminent execution while the chief must still decide.
