Uncle Frank talks of getting the mahogany wood out of the jungle over images of the log being dragged through mud behind tractors and on trucks traveling over dirt roads to a field of logs. Cut to Uncle Frank and the newlyweds in the living room as Uncle Frank explains how rains create streams that the logs are floated on. Cut back to images of the logs being worked and floated down a stream and of logs on the deck of a steamship.
