As
Brother Justin tries to make sense
of a major catastrophe, the carnival
rolls into Babylon, a tapped-out silver-mining
town with a luckless history - and
few visible inhabitants. Samson looks
to raise morale by treating the troupe
to a night at a local bar in town,
while Sofie and her new friend Libby
(one of the cooch dancers) take in
a film. A drunken Ben falls down a
mineshaft, where he unexpectedly encounters
a familiar face. Finally, a group
of restless miners arrive just in
time for the evening cooch show -
and the latest tragedy to befall Carnivàle.
