Having tricked Lord Guillonk’s soldiers, Sandokan and Yañez have managed to get into the grounds to the house and remain hidden. Seeing and hearing what is going on inside. In a room, Lord James and Mariana are arguing heatedly about the arrangements for Mariana’s wedding to Baronet Roshental. Mariana is weeping bitterly and goes off to her room. Sandokan takes advantage of the situation to climb up an enormous plant stretching over the front of the house and up to Mariana’s bedroom window. He finds his beloved and explains his plan for taking her away.
