Black to play and connect underneath
Symplicity (2k):
jumps to mind as a shape point, defending the cut at A and threatening simultaneously to connect under and pull out the stone at B. Unfortunately, if White responds with 2, cutting white at B does not immediately work:

Attempt
So perhaps the trick is to eat up some of White's liberties by exchanging something like
for
, or A, since now
is atari.

Attempt
Same here.

Attempt
If white captures here instead,
seems to link everything up, although Black may have to sacrifice his marked stones to maintain the connection.
Any refutations, or is this the solution?
