Fredrik Eriksson och Piotr Wawrzeniuk beger sig till Skogsö i Nacka för att diskutera "affairen" vid Baggenstäket 1719 när en rysk landstigning gjorde livet surt för lokalbefolkningen och Balthasar von Dahlheims Östgöta tremänningar. Fredrik berättar om planer som fanns på försvar av denna del av Stockholms skärgård före och efter 1719, och om Södermanlands regementes insats, medan Piotr reflekterar över topografin och glädjer sig över vädret.
