About this episode

The quartet executes a clever escape plan during a guard shift change, using distraction and deception to their advantage.

As the guard shift change approached, the quartet saw their chance. With Odessa’s sly tongue leading the way, they enticed the two Deep Gnome prisoners, Topsy and Turvy, into a loud, chaotic argument. The noise quickly drew the attention of the arrogant Prince Shorendil. Enraged by the noise, the elven prince stormed over and attacked the gnomes - exactly as planned. The guards simply watched, amused, offering no interference. In the distraction, Bast smashed his empty rum bottle and fashioned a crude shiv. With a quick, clever twist, he sprang at the prince. The sound alerted the guards and the lock on their cell door was opened. Freedom beckoned.
