: Myrrh...if you watch closely during this scene, you'll hear Hawkeye yell "Faster!" as he glances over his shoulder to the second canoe...I believe he is talking to Heyward & crew, and that is what I think prompted Uncas to go to their aid. Regardless of tensions between Heyward & Hawkeye, there is "safety in numbers," and they knew they needed to band together to fight the Hurons if they didn't make good their escape. That's my take on it, anyway.

Yeah this is what i thought too. I mean since Uncas is such a GREAT guy...hehe. No but seriously, I think he went over for a double reason: They needed to row faster and his canoe was too heavy. love ya all!
Love Tiget!!
