Paul rescues orphan girl Babette from being raped by Jean Follette, who later sets fire to a church. Paul's burgeoning faith compels him to risk his life to save the Bible. Although Paul emerges with a serious injury, he also succeeds in uniting the community. Meanwhile, Jean beats his wife Ena upon learning that she is pregnant. His false claims that they are not really married reaches Paul, who offers to marry Ena to give the child a name.
