He tries to involve Julie, a saloon girl, in his plans but she turns him in to the authorities. On Verne's next try, he piggybacks on the escape of six other convicts and runs into Julie again in the process.

Not something easy

like a jungle, or an ocean,

- but something like her, tough.

- But worth waiting for, maybe?

- As long as it takes.

- He wasn't talking to you.

Besides, I'm the one

that'll be doing the waiting, not you.

- Okay to move around?

- Okay, Verne. Or am I still a sucker?

What do you think?

- He won't be sorry?

- No, fisherman, he won't.

And everything will be all right

for them someday?

Everything is all right now.

Goodbye, my friend.

Goodbye, monsieur.
