Just one link - next to your master-link so you can quickly put it together. See where your master link came off of? Does the Master-Link have 2 outer-plates with 2 posts attached? I'm not familiar with the type of link you have. Is it like the first one in this:

Let me know - I'll walk you through it once we have established how your Master-Link works. Relax - we're almost there.
