Primero, se lo pregunta a su madre. Ella le dice que tiene que calmarse y que no puede contestarle porque es demasiado vieja para esa clase de situaciones. Entonces, él le hace la misma pregunta a su cuñada, quien le pide también que se calme. Maida está sentada en casa de John y tiene en sus manos un espejo con el que admira su atractivo rostro (ni viejo ni marcado por la edad). Habla con el espejo y le dice que si tuviera a Kosta, aunque sólo fuera por una noche, lo haría hombre. Ve pasar a Kosta por la ventana, lo saluda y le dice que suba. Él le contesta que le tiene miedo a John. Maida le dice que John no está en casa, sino que se ha ido a casar, solo. No acababa de decir estas palabras cuando entra John y le pide a Maida que baje y abra la puerta para tomar lo que él ha cazado. Ella le contesta que le tiene miedo a la presa y le pide que se la lleve a su madre, quien está acostumbrada a esas cosas. John va entonces a la casa de su madre y se la ofrece, pero la madre le contesta que tiene miedo de la presa y le dice que se la lleve a Maida, quien está acostumbrada a esas cosas. John le cuenta que Maida le tiene miedo también y su madre le dice que Maida se ha casado con él, pero ha tomado a Kosta por amante. John se va otra vez a su casa a caballo. Abre la puerta y sube al primer piso, coge su espada y le corta la cabeza a Maida, la pone en un plato pequeño y convierte los huesos en polvo. (La informante explica que el polvo de los huesos era usado como maquillaje por las mujeres bellas de complexión oscura--morenas.)
