The Amazon Queen thanks Esteban for restoring the sun, yet Amoro insists on sacrificing a servant girl named Morka. The children discover that Amoro’s sacred rain mask is actually a barometer utilizing Hiva knowledge. Tao sabotages the device, leading Amoro to falsely predict a massive storm. When the weather remains calm, Amoro flees in shame and returns with a hostile river tribe seeking revenge. Esteban devises a plan to use the Queen's Mirror of the Moon to reflect sunlight onto a condor, empowering the bird to frighten the attackers away. The episode concludes with a mini-documentary exploring the lives of Amazonian Indian tribes.
