While Al. and Margaret are driving in the jungle, the chemist suddenly forces his obnoxious attentions upon her. She manages to get away, and providentially she walks into the native camp where she meets her husband and tells him of her predicament. Al., believing that Margaret is near, accidently approaches the camp, Margaret sees him and informs her husband, who thrashes him. As he is backing away he fires at Paul. The bullet misses its mark.
