Back at the tower, the young man tells the old man that he's back. He's just been "scared great" . The old man tells him to let them go. The young man wants to know why he locked them up. He says it's because the dog had to "run around" because of the noise. The man says he'll punish the dog so that it won't have to run around anymore. He also says that he wants to give the young woman a contract: she'll get some money if she helps him heal the man's soul. He tells her to sit across from him and listen to what he has to say. He wants to see if he can help the man heal his soul. She says she's going to help him find a place where he can stay. She doesn't care what people think of him in the past, she says. She's actually going to give him a place to live. She tells him that the duke needs his "heavenly golden pill" right now, and he needs it ASAP.
