John identifies himself to the Rurales captain, and attempts to arrest Curly, who escapes during a scuffle. Manuel, a Rurales officer, finds Curly's secret cave and directs John to Curly's mine where Carter and Linda being held. Curly is about to shoot Carter when John surprises him and a fistfight ensues. The Rurales ride up just in time and capture Curly's gang. John takes Curly into custody for sentencing in the United States.
