The prince comes out of his hiding place to greet the women, and the women are all excited to see him. The prince asks the women if they know what to do, and they tell him to pull on the shoulder of the gorilla, who has escaped from her master's voice. When the prince asks if he should do anything rash, the women tell him not to, but the prince says he did not tell them not to do rash things, and that he will take care of them, too. The women clap and the prince is so happy to see his pet back that he wants to swallow a chicken. He tells the women to hold on to clap, as he feels like his cheeks have gone numb. He says he is glad his pet is still attached to him, because his country's precious resources are tied up in the sapphire veins of his country, and if he separated them out to other people, they would all die. They tell him that he should express his shame, and leave the room at once.
