Don heads to the Batoche National Historic Site, the actual battle site of the vallant last stand of the Metis in the Northwest Rebellion of 1885. It is here that Don must reenact the life of a Metis soldier. Don cooks some lead bullets over an open fire, learns how to prepare and load a muzzle loader and takes part in some language classes in Michif to reflect the language used by the Metis at the time. But when it comes to Don mounting a horse again, fear becomes an enormous hurdle for both horse and rider to overcome.
