Terangi gets married with Marama and sooner he sails to Tahiti. While in a bar playing with other natives, Terangi is offended by an alcoholic racist French and he hits his face, breaking his jaw. Despite the testimony of Captain Nagle, Terangi is sentenced to six months of forced labor since the victim had political connections with the Powers That Be. Captain Nagle asks the Governor Eugene DeLaage to uses his influence to help Terangi, but the governor refuses. Terangi unsuccessfully tries to escape from the prison, and each attempt increases his sentence. Eight years later, he finally escapes and his jailbreak is celebrated in Manukura.

As soon as you can get your

engine running, we'll make a search...

for survivors.

I must make a report, list all dead.

I shall want all details.

Come with me to the ship.

The ship will find us. I know that.

The ship will come,

and then they'll take Terangi.

Oh, no, Marama, no.

But I know they will.

Terangi knows it.

But I'll make them take Tita

and me, too.

Be quiet, Marama.

It doesn't matter now.

We're lucky to be alive.

Katopua.

- Good-bye, Marama.

- Good-bye, madame.

Good-bye, little Tita.

God bless you, Terangi.

Captain!

Easy left!

Germaine.

My dear. My dear.

I thought I lost you,

but I never gave up hope.

Germaine, forgive me.

Forgive you? For what?

For everything I failed to be

since we were married.

I faced it all today.

I've nearly gone mad.

Take me back to the boat now.

I'm so dreadfully tired.

I know, dear.

- Where are the others?

- There are no others. Not a soul.

I was tied to a tree and drifted here

alone. All the others were lost.

Let's go back to the boat.

Eugene, take me back to the boat!

There's something out there.

It's only a floating log.

You're right, Germaine.

It's only a floating log.
