Farmer Eben Morse sets out to sell his crops in the big city, but encounters a strange crossroads in time. He follows each of the roads to its destination, each a different culture, and having scattered havoc in all of them, wearily sets off for home. The devil's rescue. When the crew of a spectral old clipper ship rescues Lanson from his drifting lifeboat, he discovers that they are faceless, except for the captain.

Lanson then plays and wins and is instantly plunged back into the sea, but finds his lifeboat. The room.
