He apologizes for ruining both of their lives, asking her to tell him about herself he has all the time in the world. She greets him with a slap, for leaving her alone on their planned trip around the world. Finally, after nearly an hour, Estella calls out to him as he’s getting up to leave.

Passepartout is again doubting Fogg, and his anger at Fogg’s abandonment leads to an argument with Fix. “To stand under a clock and wait for a woman,” Passepartout answers. He suddenly disembarks, telling Fix and Passepartout to leave without him if he’s not back before the ship sails.
