Jann is swinging through the jungle so that her friend Pat Mahoney can snap photos of her in action. Their photo shoot is interrupted when they are visited by Bogo, one of the local tribesmen, comes to them in a panic. He tells the pair that his tribe refuses to work for Pat any more. Spotting a note on the ground, Jann believes that the strike is something serious, but before she can read the note it is shot out of her hands by an arrow. Jann goes after it and stops a cobra that stands in her way, but before she can retrieve the note from a tree she is stopped by a man dressed in ceremonial garb armed with a blow gun, who snatches the note away and vanishes into the jungle.

Jann then swings back to the village where she finds the tribesmen have taken Pat prisoner and intend to execute him as they believe that their land belongs to them and refuse to allow white man to trespass. Finding that the entire mantra of the tribe smacks of communist ideals, Jann suddenly hears someone shouting for help in a nearby hut.
