Three Years Later
- With the knights broken, Hank reveals his schools, mines, and factories in the kingdom.
- He renews his challenge to take on any number of knights with just himself and fifty assistants.
- Three years pass with no major challenges for Hank. Slavery ends, new inventions flood the land, and Hank even plans to send out a ship and "discover America." Nothing can possibly go wrong, right? Nothing.
- Hank plans to overthrow the Catholic Church and establish a variety of Protestant ones to replace it, and he also intends to establish a voting democracy once Arthur dies. Clarence disagrees, feeling that a constitutional monarchy would be better.
- In the interim, Hank has married Sandy and they have a daughter named Hello-Central. Lucky kid.
- Sandy interrupts Hank's work with news that Hello-Central is sick, so he sends for doctors, and he and Sir Launcelot prepare medicine for her.
- The doctors recommend rest by the sea for the girl, so they set sail for France.
- While there, Hank devises a new diversion for the knights: baseball. He draws up teams, using Arthur and the rulers of various little kingdoms as players.
