In this episode, we take a look at chapters seventeen through nineteen of Children of Dune, in which Leto brings Stilgar out into the desert for a chat, Stilgar questions his beliefs and traditions, Alia tries to convince Duncan to aid her in abducting the Lady Jessica, and Duncan becomes concerned at her decidedly un-Atreides-like behavior - setting his Mentat mind in motion.
