Back home, he finds five middle-aged or elderly men sitting at the dinner table but he refuses to join the guests and goes upstairs to his bedroom. The worst is prevented thanks to a servant who has caught sight of Claude’s revolver. Claude ‘s uncle joins his nephew and manages to persuade him not to take action.
