Step 0: The unweighted system.
Step 3: Prussik affixed to lead line and weighted. Note that I had to install an anchor point down below to anchor the prussik because the masterpoint is not weighted by the fallen leader..

Step 4: One mopre shot of the system after I have unclipped the belay.
Step 4: The munter-mule is untied, and the prussik is backed up with a bight clipped to the masterpoint with a locker. I am now free to unclip the belay device.
