After receiving telegrams from Mike and Cohn, Jake and Bill return via bus to Pamplona. There they meet up with Brett, Mike, and Cohn at a café, where a drunken Mike tells anecdotes before the group walks to the corrals outside of town to see the unloading of the bulls. At another café afterward, Mike browbeats Cohn for tagging after Brett. (Apparently Cohn returned to San Sebastian while Jake and Bill were fishing in Burguete.) Bill leads Cohn away before any punches are thrown; later, in their hotel room, Bill tells Jake that he feels for Cohn.
