Charles has asked a surveyor to find the most affordable location to quarry stone for the viaduct. But when Annie and Johnny discover that the quarry site is where the bodies of Happy Jack and Skinny are buried, panic sets in. Surely if they move the coffins they will discover Red. Everything they thought was dead and buried now looks to come back and destroy everything they have fought for.
While Annie and Johnny do all they can to keep George calm and prevent him from spilling their secret, the town is in outrage. They rally around Hatty and superstitions abound. Hatty, won over by the promise of a decent new head stone for Jack gives in to the inevitability of the exhumation and asks Annie to be at her side when the time comes. Annie is going to have to keep it together in the toughest of circumstances.
