Despite being bankrupt, Mansour's admiration for Fatma leads him to write her a check for 100 pounds. Kawthar decides to send young Youssef to his grandfather, the Pasha, to ask for money.

When the Pasha asks his son Mahmoud to bring Kawthar money to aid Mansour, Mahmoud insists that he must meet young Youssef in exchange for the money.

Sa'eid Pasha recruits Mansour for a patriotic mission. As Mansour is hired in the ministerial office of Sa'eid Pasha, Kawthar suspects that Mansour and Fatma are having an affair.

Kawthar finds Mansour's things in Fatma's house. Mansour is shocked that his brother's name is included in the list of those about to be ordained as Bey.

When Mahmoud's request to be ordained as Bey is rejected, he suspects that Mansour has interfered to impede him. Fatma asks Mansour to leave Kawthar so that she could marry him. Sa'eid resigns from office.
