Mark Twain wrote multiple versions of his story about the Mysterious Stranger during his lifetime and never really completed it. In its most commonly-known form it is a novella, formed by joining two different versions. This segment, loosely based on that, is from the movie, The Adventures of Mark Twain, and features Huck Finn, Tom Sawyer, and Becky Thatcher, traveling with their creator, who is seeking the meaning of his life. It is a powerful—and controversial—tale, with this part especially suited to claymation.
