Pepino tells Ruggiero to pay him the money he owes and grabs Ruggiero, but Stefano stops him and tells him that he is better than Ruggiero. Later, Ruggiero is brought to Mazzeo's Wife's house and while he is waiting for Mazzeo's Wife, he drinks from a bottle and falls asleep. Ruggiero eventually wakes up and thinking he is walking into Mazzeo's Wife's bed, starts to kiss and caress the legs of Stefano and Pepino's wives. Stefano and Pepino wake up and drag Ruggiero to the Judge. Ruggiero is tortured by Master del Scandigo who uses a feather to tickle his foot. Ruggiero admits to the Judge that he owes Pepino money, which the Scribe then writes down. The Judge tells him that Pepino has accused him of stealing their money and sentences him to hang. Later, A Jail Guard tells Scandigo that Rossina is there to speak with him and she tells Ruggiero the plan. The Judge walks in and she tells him the story she and Mazzeo's Wife came up with. The Judge frees Ruggiero and sentences Pepino and Stefano. Later in time, Angela finishes the story and after the other girls leave, she and Ruggiero, who was hiding, kiss.
