- Refugees from the war are targeted by Feron for stealing grain in a plot to force the King to pay a higher price to feed the citizens of Paris. The Musketeers must work with one of them, Sylvie, to prove their innocence.
- Feron and Grimaud engineer a food shortage in Paris to fool the king into giving them money allegedly to buy more grain. They blame the theft from the grain store on refugees fleeing the wars with Spain and when D'Artagnan joins the protesters he is jailed along with them. A fair magistrate refuses to try the so-called culprits without evidence, giving the three musketeers the time to trace the stolen grain and its immediate thieves, helped by Sylvie, the daughter of a campaigner against injustice. Feron's plan is thwarted and the innocent are released but the musketeers have yet to discover Grimaud's duplicity.—don @ minifie-1
- The Duke of Beaufort, a crown-favored high aristocrat, faces ruin and reluctantly conspires with Paris governor marquis de Feron and mercenary Lucien Grimaud to create a grain shortage by stealing the summer harvest form the St. Antoine granary. They blame it on the Spanish war refugees, having the red guard arrest for starters leader Hubert, Leon and D'Artagnan, who prefers awaiting release trough sympathetic royal minister Treville to deflect from his feisty wife. While the three musketeers and cadet Clairmont search for the stolen grain and planted false evidence, Hubert's intemperate daughter Sylvie complicates matters no less then the guards. Grimaud deals his own way with thieving henchman and Leon is unmasked as Feron's double agent, but killed as scapegoat by guard captain Marcheaux. Magistrate Bellavoix refuses to hang suspects without proof and a royal gesture to the hungry people goes at the conspirators' expense.—KGF Vissers
