Using their wit and ingenuity, the lord of Yunagaya fiefdom, Naito Masaatsu (Sasaki Kuranosuke), and his party accomplish the "sankin" to Edo and now depart for the return journey to their homeland. While on the road, however, Masaatsu receives information an uprising has occurred in Yunagaya instigated by an elder samurai, Nobutoki (Jinnai Takanori), whom they had triumphed over.
