Zbigniew asks the girl if she's saying that the people will be able to hurt her, but they can't harm her. The girl says that she'll try her best to fend off the attackers, but with one mistake, she can stop. The two swear that they'll always be like brothers and sisters, and that the girl's identity will remain a secret to them. They go to visit the girl, who's been gone for a while. The young man says that he's finally back in the country, so he'll go and visit her. He tells the girl that there's a bunch of people at her door, and she should go and help him rid them of them. She says that everyone in the family smells of copper. She wants to help, but the young man tells her to leave it to him. He's the one who remembers the girl. He says that the young master remembers him, too, and the girl thinks that he was just a fool. She asks why the commotion is there, and he tells her that it's because the family has wanted to show their thanks to the girl for her many years of service. The family may not have as much influence as the young men, but it still has a lot of money.
