Juan, a cowardly rascal, also loves Carmen and entertains against Jim a jealous hatred without, however, the courage to personally harm the engineer. He determines to make use of a third party to vent his fury upon Jim. Pablo, high tempered and jealous, loves Nita Garcia, with whom Jim is on friendly terms, and by a trick Juan convinces Pablo that Jim is in secret Nita's lover, and that his attentions to Carmen are merely a blind. Pablo seeks Jim, determined to kill him. In order to save a detour of a couple of miles, Jim has hung a rope down the face of a cliff, and it is near this point that Pablo comes upon the engineer. Jim is entirely at a loss to account for Pablo's rage. Pablo is armed with a knife only and Jim, with his gun, prevents the other from closing in upon him. As he can get no explanation from Pablo, and as he does not wish to harm his sweetheart's brother, Jim deems it best to retreat from the field, and prepares to climb the rope, holding off Pablo with his gun. When Jim has climbed a little way he drops his gun, which falls out of Pablo's reach. Pablo at once begins to climb the rope after Jim. It happens that Carmen has been roaming in the neighborhood, and witnesses the affair between Jim and her brother. The girl sees that in a few minutes Pablo, a better climber, will get at Jim with his knife, and she begins to shoot at the rope between them, Pablo not yet being high enough to be seriously injured by a fall. She at length succeeds in cutting the rope, and Pablo is rendered temporarily helpless by the fall. Carmen and Jim go to Pablo's assistance, and it is soon conclusively proven to Pablo that they have been victims of a trick. Later it is apparent to Carmen and Jim that Juan is the guilty person, but in the completeness of their happiness they are indifferent to all else, and Jim does not seek revenge.
