Lola accepts the hospitality of the missionary in preference to that of the nabob, although she dislikes preachers and does not believe in God. Flint, who is attracted to the girl, warns her against taking passage on a trading vessel in port captained by "Bully" Haynes; Lola, who has been persuaded by Haynes to trick Flint into leaving the island, later realizes that she cannot carry out the scheme and warns Flint of his danger. Scornfully, Flint decides to sell out and go to Australia, leaving the Christians at the mercy of the nabob. When the village is set afire, Lola implores Flint to call for aid; he fights the ship's crew; Haynes is mortally wounded; Lola, in desperation, prays for guidance; and Flint succeeds in communicating with marines, who quell the uprising.
