Unnoticed by Perdita, Trovio appears, and, seeing her predicament, procures the desired blossom and accepts her thanks. It was Perdita's good fortune that Trovio chanced to glance in her direction after they parted, for she had not gone far before meeting the pernicious Alfonso, who tried to persuade her to accompany him to the tavern. Seeing Alfonso's unwelcomed presence, Trovio rushes to her assistance, commands Alfonso to go and offers his protection. For his double kindness, Perdita gives Trovio the rose. Seeing Perdita and Trovio, her mother takes her to task for making "chance" acquaintance. For Trovio's interference, Alfonso vows vengeance, and meeting Manuel, bribes him to carry out a scheme which, if successful, means no escape for Trovio. In the grounds surrounding the Alcalde's court, Manuel rushes up to Trovio, and, without provocation, slaps him in the face. Trovio whips out his dagger and pursues Manuel, as the latter turns and runs away squealing "Robber!" Of course Alfonso happened to be a witness to the attack, and Trovio with the dagger in his hands, is quickly tried, convicted, and sentenced to five years of imprisonment. Even though she has been forbidden. Perdita cannot resist stealing away when she sees Trovio in the crowd, and, rushing forward, she arrives just in time to see him heavily ironed and taken to prison. Hearing that Trovio has been sentenced to prison, she faints on the steps of the court. Alfonso and Manuel offer to take her to her home, but instead, they take her to a tavern, where in her dazed condition, wine is forced to her lips until she swoons. Gloating over her helplessness, Alfonso dispatches Manuel to notify her mother. Seeing her apparently dissipated, the mother disowns Perdita. Without home or friends, Perdita's only course is the life of a coquette. After five years, Trovio is freed and it is while she is passing "La Cantina Verdugo" that he chances to see Perdita in company of Alfonso. When Alfonso leaves his table, Trovio starts towards Perdita, but the latter flees from the place, and, rushing through the garden, she draws a dagger and plunges it into her heart. Trovio comes upon her just as Perdita is breathing her last, and taking the faded rose which he has treasured, lays it on her breast just as the light of her life goes out.
