Dogtanian comes in depressed from his date, for which Juliette never showed up. Her uncle is also worried, and more so when Rochefort rides up to tell him that he is holding Juliette prisoner. Dogtanian, Sandy and Planchet set out to look for her but fall asleep under a tree, exhausted. Juliette, prisoner in a cottage in the woods, tries to escape from her guard but is caught and tied up. She uses her mirror to flash a signal from the window. Sandy sees it and finds her, and takes the mirror back to Dogtanian. But Rochefort tricks the friends into pursuing him while Juliette is still in the cottage. Meanwhile Widimer, utterly disgraced in the eyes of the Cardinal, is wandering the streets drunk when he comes across Aramis and a lady friend. Mistaking Aramis for Buckingham, he challenges him but realises the mistake and runs off. Aramis sees Dogtanian pass by and asks what's wrong, but Dogtanian can only shake his head and howl for Juliette.
